Daredevil

[Solitaire]

Am I right in thinking that Netflix are airing all the Daredevil episodes on Friday 10th April or have I been April fooled by a colleague at work? ???

[Vee]

You're right. But if they also told you that google had no such info that was an April fool's joke :P

[Magus Prime]

Awesome and well put-together show.  I inhaled it.

[saipaman]

We were all street level heroes once.

[Solitaire]

Not seen it as yet, intending to watch over the weekend ;)

[Tenzhi]

Wow.  Extreme violence with a car door.  Other than the generic black outfit, I'm digging this series.  I wasn't sold on Fisk at first, but I am now.

[Vee]

i'm 2 episodes in and it's quite good. and i rarely like anything.

[Aggelakis]

My hubby is fangirling so hard right now. (Yes, fangirling. The amount of squee transcends fanboyism.)

[Abraxus]

I think we might finally have a telling of Daredevil that even most of the die-hard comic fans can get behind.  Personally, I like it a lot, but I have a friend who was more of a Daredevil fan than he was Batman (and he LOVES Batman), so when I hear his verbal stamp of approval, I will know it is a hit for all levels of fandom.

This.

[eabrace]

Had I still been even remotely on the fence about the series, Stick would have sold me on it.  My favorite episode so far.

[AmberOfDzu]

I wasn't sure about this series, but based on the notes here I've started watching it. The violence is pretty high; more than I normally would watch tbh, but the series works. ^_^

[Abraxus]

Agreed!  While the violence is more than one would expect, it is totally in context for the story being told, and therefore does not seem gratuitous.

[Tenzhi]

Wow.  I completely wasn't expecting that outcome with Wesley.  As I near the end of season 1, I'm really hoping for a season 2.

[Tenzhi]

Alright, who is the old apparently Chinese woman really?  Since her homeland is "a considerable distance farther" away than China.  A skrull, perhaps?

[Ohioknight]

Incredible show -- every time I think Marvel can't do better, they push the bar higher.

BTW -- Apparently the way you avoid the Frank Miller curse is not to mention his name? (or, you know,respect the material and do it well)

Just STUNNING fight choreography -- I've never seen anything like this good

[eabrace]

Does anyone else find themselves expecting R. Lee Ermey to come marching in and berate Fisk for hiding a jelly donut in his foot locker?

[Battlechimp]

A buddy of mine said the same thing, but then I pointed out a previous fan boy squee moment I had earlier in that episode....

Spoiler for Hidden:

if you look closely at the emblem that the blind workers are stamping on the drugs, its the emblem that's tattooed in the chest of the Steel Serpent.  A villain of the Iron Fist.  She's from Kun Lun, or however you spell that

[Tenzhi]

I'd always assumed that was in the Kunlun mountains.  In looking it up, however, I read that there's an Iron Fist Netflix series coming as well?  If true, I hope it's at least as good as Daredevil.

I think he looked better in the generic black outfit than he does later in the actual costume.
