But I guess were not originally. Marvel better be dumping everything they did before, even if they think it works, cos otherwise it's just gonna be another show that has been obviously meddled with. It's mindblowing that they were almost gonna totally **** it up, it sounds like. Like how does that even begin to happen, when the property is so beloved (even if niche), and is supposedly Kevin Feige's favourite, when it can and should be the core of the ground-level supe shows, and when they need a hit and some goodwill so desperately. When the show has already been
done right before. God, if you hire people who anyone and everyone on the internet GROAN at when they hear about it, or can look at their IMDB and go 'oh no'....why can't Feige? Like what do they think will ******* happen? lol. What is the impetus for these moronic choices?
Where the hell is Steven S Deknight or Drew Goddard et al? Who all worked on Buffy and/or Angel back in the day I believe; pretty much anyone from either of those shows would do this well.
I digress. So now it's this Dario guy who doesn't inspire super-confidence, plus Benson and Moorehead. They're good visually and I've loved some of their films ever since Resolution... although I do feel like their movies have been diminishing returns and they didn't save Loki (imo) and I'm a bit worried about their attitude of not worrying too much about plot cos it's all about the tone, man, and the metaphors and character and all that stuff that lazy writers trot out when they don't wanna bother sweating the plot machinations. Daredevil versus Kingpin needs some good plot mechanics or it'll be stupid and unbelievable. And just please, please, if it's going to be many episodes, you need B plots. C plots even. Other characters need to have their own scenes and stories and arcs. It can't just be like an 18 hour movie following nobody but Matt the whole time. I wonder if they know that. Jesus ******* christ I learnt about how tv shows can tell multiple little arcs in an episode and have them thematically dovetail and then pay off at the end by watching
Party Of Five in 1994 when I was fourteen. Any one of us could probly plot it out pretty well so could they just not cherry pick from the small pool of people in the whole world who obviously can't? thanks
sorry, I'm in a mood; I think I'd be saying this even if I was at a Wendy's rn lol.
