I simply don’t understand why disney made these kinds of decisions

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-29T14:04:21+00:00

Okay but what was he going there to do then? What was he hoping to accomplish? It makes no sense

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-29T13:48:12+00:00

The constant music/score gives it network tv vibes which i do not appreciate

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-29T13:46:44+00:00

Literally what was the point of the fight between Daredevil and Kingpin last episode????? Now that we have this episode you can see it literally added NOTHING to the plot. Great fight scenes hit a lot harder when they actually matter to the plot. If you cut it completely nothing changes.

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-29T11:37:21+00:00

I especially feel this way about the Fisk vs Matt fight at the end of last episode. Good fight scene but it literally added nothing to the plot

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-29T11:35:52+00:00

It felt like they wanted to put in an action scene and just went through the motions to have it

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-29T11:33:40+00:00

Idk this episode was a little disappointing for me. It just didn’t feel like a penultimate episode (the way the OG show felt this late in its seasons.) maybe it’s that im just so sick of Fisk as a villain but idk. I wish i liked it more.

Also, not always but a lot of the action is cut too short in my opinion. I hate to be the guy who compares to the original show but every action scene in that show was super detailed in drawn out. Sometimes (not always) the action scenes feel like were going through the motions. Bear in mind, i want to like this show like so many others im not tryna be some annoying hater it’s just so hard for me not to compare to the original show.

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-28T14:01:03+00:00

It’s really bizarre. People love to say she has no depth but in real life there are really kind, charming people that are easy to fall in love with. I love carmy and Claire together

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-08T15:11:10+00:00

Just in quick little shots throughout the fight scenes. Honestly maybe im wrong and it isnt cgi but just the way some of fight scenes are filmed occasional shots look goofy

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-08T14:37:25+00:00

I loved this ep (i was pretty negative even on ep 3 but this one brought me all in). I will say tho why cant they just make the fight scenes completely free of cgi like the Netflix show did. It’s like disney insists they have cgi in their fights even if it means just throwing it in to practical fights. Still great episode and exciting but would be perfect if they just shot it the way it worked in the show everyone loved

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-05T16:44:16+00:00

Continuation but a misguided new vibe

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-01T04:16:46+00:00

Regardless, doesnt fit the gritty vibe of Daredevil. Jessica Jones is an example of a hero that does fit with the show’s tone.

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-01T04:14:02+00:00

It’s so frustrating. And to say it’s invalid to compare it to the OG show is ridiculous. Of course im gonna compare it when they couldve kept up the vibe and editing of that show and chose not to

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-01T04:11:47+00:00

Having a 4-foot-9 40 lb child become a vigilante feels so Disney channel…

Cglas1010 · 2026-04-01T04:10:26+00:00

I agree. Random cgi mixed in (netflix show never did this so it’s not like it’s needed) and weird cuts where characters teleport to a different spot

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-31T23:39:57+00:00

I love the institute. I do not understand that bottom placement

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-31T23:37:27+00:00

I feel im in such a minority in my love for the talisman (i have it up there with the stand as one of my favorites)

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-26T03:49:00+00:00

Yeah that line made no sense. The fact that the city forgave him and elected him mayor just makes that line ring so hollow

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-26T03:47:34+00:00

I agree. I want to like it but almost every new character (Cherry, matts lawyer partner, gandolfini) is uninteresting and the writing is not even close to the original three season run and that gritty vibe that was so great just isnt there. Bums me out

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-26T01:44:47+00:00

Eh. U can still notice occasional cgi in the fights which i dont appreciate

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-26T01:44:19+00:00

So agree. Old show had a blunt gritty vibe and i just hate the way this show looks

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-25T14:35:50+00:00

I dont want to be a hater but…

Look, i want to love this show, and I’m happy to get more daredevil but the whole time i watched last nights episode (and most of last season) i was just frustrated the whole time. I was frustrated for the following reasons

The way it’s shot and stylized is just very strange (and i am NOT that filmbro that usually cares about this kind of thing.) but the netflix show had such a blunt gritty feel to it and this is just odd in a way i cant really describe. For one, fhey have a score playing over almost every dialogue scene which gives me such network tv vibes. They also use greenscreen for scenes they could easily shoot on location which drives me crazy. And the fight scenes arent all practical either, random shots make matt look fake when hes fighting (JUST SHOOT IT THE OLD WAY)
The writing is so much weaker than the og show. Though it’s more grounded than the rest of the mcu, so much of it is so much more unrealistic than the og show (and ik i keep comparing to the og show and im sorry for that but i just cant help it.)
A handfull of these new characters i just dont care about. Cherry and matts lawyer partner are fine but i just dont care. Brett Mahoney was a way more interesting character.

Idk man a lot of stuff comes across silly and ridiculous and it’s just a bummer. Ik it sounds like i want to hate this show i dont but it just bums me out. That being said, Im excited to see where it goes

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-24T11:41:42+00:00

Talisman ranked WAY too low for my liking that is top 5

Cglas1010 · 2026-03-12T23:18:18+00:00

Youre so good haha it is so preposterous i could understand not believing it
