Daredevil Born Again (Disney+) - March 4, 2025

well… it is training..

LOL ... fair. I would never say that about a student. I just don't understand why his trainer isn't making him twist his hips and pivot on his standing leg. It's the difference between getting slapped and getting smashed by a baseball bat.

I doubt they're too concerned with the impact of his kick, only that he can look serviceable enough so that up close film of him and not the stunt double doesn't look too bad. Of course this is coming from someone who loved Buffy the Vampire Slayer despite all those wild martial arts vampire scenes

Plastic Bullets or some laser like alien/Stark Tech.

Probably gonna have an iron suit

Well it would be comic accurate. Didn't he get one in the comics? Totally against character though.

I really enjoyed Buffy back in the day. I guess what I mean is the way the kick looks to me, it's not selling it as someone who knows what they're doing; he's also stiff and uncoordinated up top but it's a little less obvious. But it's also entirely possible they're just working him hard to get him ripped; to be fair most of the fight scenes in the show were decent, if I recall.

Amazing news. Jon Bernthal is soooooooo great as Frank.

Great new but I bet we don’t get a sniff of seeing that skull logo

I read on twitter that the actors for Foggy and Karen aren't coming back. I'm sure everyone's upset. Karen was one of the most annoying TV characters I've ever seen. All she did was ugly cry.

Thank God. It's time to celebrate.

Please let it be a mission to wipe out Mark Ruffalo. With Wil Wheaton as collateral damage.

I actually found Foggy more annoying by far.

Truth!

I'm just glad Foggy is gone.

 

[ironwez20]

I hated both of them. They were very annoying

Foggy, like him or not, is a pretty integral character for Matt though.

I haven't read a lot of DD comics -- was he written like that in there, too?

Me neither, but in Netflix he was one of few things keeping Matt grounded from reality and stopping him from losing himself to the Daredevil persona.

That is pretty much Foggy in the comics as well. I don't know if that is still true since I haven't read anything past the Mark Waid run.

By crying a lot.

I never bought into Bernthal's version. It always seemed too DeNiro. Like he was trying too hard, or something. It seems to be his acting in general though.

Fair enough. I think the Buffy fights were typically the other end of the spectrum where the vamp would do a 720 degree round house kick straight out of the grave. I think they even poked fun at it in the episode where Buffy was in the asylum...

Oh snap they’re filming near me
