I thought Luke Cage was going to be boring because the actor didn't seem like he could carry his own show from his appearance on Jessica Jones.

I liked the series overall, although it kind of dragged and was boring midway to the end. The actor from Moonlight was definitely the highlight of the series.

same here the ending of the show was just boring. Didn't even bother to finish. Cottonmouth was the better villian.
 
Finn Jones thinks he knows why critics hate Iron Fist – and it has to do with Trump

"I think the world has changed a lot since we were filming that television show," he said. "I’m playing a white American billionaire superhero, at a time when the white American billionaire archetype is public enemy number one, especially in the US."

"We filmed the show way before Trump’s election, and I think it’s very interesting to see how that perception, now that Trump’s in power, how it makes it very difficult to root for someone coming from white privilege, when that archetype is public enemy number one."

"Danny is a fish out of water, and you don’t really understand where he’s coming from," Jones said. "But I think there’s also a level of intrigue. People need to see the full series – Iron Fist doesn’t end until the last episode of Defenders. He really goes on a journey of self-discovery, and grows into the role. It’s paced out; it’s a long journey."

However, Jones hit back at the critical response: "I think it’s very clear and very simple; these shows are made for the fans, not for critics. I think the fans of the source material and the fans of the Netflix and Marvel shows will love what we’ve created. I think it’s that simple."

Has to be embarrassing to be the first flop in the MCU.

Ah, white American Liberals who think the world revolves around them. I never get tired of hearing about 'em...

It's why there's no costume, no Shou-Lao, no emphasis on the mystical aspects, no Thunderer, no... Made for the fans alright...

It seems Finn has joined the DCEU Therapy Group...
 
Yrah i had no idea trump was responsible for the boring story, the crappy fights or the lack of suit :lol

Trump has many abilities, some may consider... unnatural...

Damn, this is great :lol

Yup. There's no chance he'll be hanging out with the cool kids now. Maybe they'll have him wear the DUNCE cone and let him film from his corner while Evans, Olsen, Hiddleston & Larson have a foursome...
 
:lol :lol :lol

This is why I wish Daredevil would be its own thing. I don't want to see him interacting with the rest of the subpar Netflix heroes.

I even think the second half of Daredevil season 2 dipped in quality to set up the defenders. This shared universe thing really doesn't make anything better at all.

The problem with DDS2 was that it had to set up far too many things. Defenders, Punisher, Elektra and leave hints for Born Again while exploring the Hand. It was just too much, made worse by the idiotic Elektra retcon, which I'm still angry over. They changed her ethnicity (after the adoption thing they never specified what race she was), her background and stole one of the most iconic DD mythos scenes, just to set up the "TV Avengers". In a perfect world, DDS2 would've been about Punisher, Bullseye & Elektra, with small hints about the Hand and Born Again. But alas, we need crossovers for some reason...
 
All in all, if it sucks shouldnt the blame be on the executives and not the actor? If he did suck, then he should have been replaced. I'm sure Disney is not afraid to fire people.
 
The more I read about this show, the more I'm not looking forward to it. What started as a perceived delight, is quickly starting to look like a chore. I'll watch it and form an official opinion. But I was skeptical of Finn at first. His current claims just further push me away from buying into his character. I mean ****, Tony Stark is also a white billionaire but people don't hate him. Finn is reaching on that claim.

Well... Most ComicBook fans hate him after Civil War. The Tumblrinas also dislike him now that they've got Riri. I've seen posts on Tumblr about how Iron Man is a racist flick, and 2008 was indeed far behind on progressiveness. Apart from a few comicfans and the Stony Tumblrinas, he's not the most loveable character as far as the "fandom" (God, I hate that word...) is concerned. The GA loves him though, that's true.

Yeah, im worried that defenders is going to taint datedevil.


Daredevil interacting with these characters might be dumb.
 
I'd like to see Daredevil and Luke Cage. Not sure the chemistry is there for JJones and DD. Finn Jones had a chance to show us something but it sounds like it was a poor casting. Lots of fans not happy with his performance thus far (I know, not everyone has seen it yet).
 
Finn should have just let the show ride on its merits. Throwing politics into the mix makes it worse.
 
Don't people judge something for themselves anymore?

Some Chicken Little reads one or two negative reviews and suddenly the sky is falling. :lol

Will the show suck or be good? :huh Nobody knows until they see it.

One or two??

ONE OR TWO????? :lol :lol :lol :lol
