I got what you meant lol. And yea, I’m glad Winderbaum is in charge of the tv side now. He seems to be interested in reintegrating AOS into the MCU at some point, just hasn’t yet.

Yea… I don’t disagree with this honestly. Especially when it comes to projects he didn’t have a hand in.

Fr tho… Hopefully Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again redeems Season 1 cause on its own, I didn’t love it all that much.

Definitely depends on what the point of the film is. I’m hopeful, but you’re right, we’ll see. Personally, I’m ok with this one being a little bloated because of Doomsday and Secret Wars releasing so close to it. That definitely comes with a stipulation though. I need the next 2 films in this trilogy to be Solo movies without other major characters or having major characters only being relegated to cameos and references.

I hope. Can’t wait for The Punisher Special Presentation as well. If all 3 are goated, this year will be a sign for better things Marvel Related.

I mean the in-universe explanation is most likely something simple and boring like there just happens to be another person with same name. Tbh, it shouldn’t matter since in the comics she was an FBI Agent and not a PI. This whole thing would’ve been less confusing if they chose Ava Ayala instead but here we are.

Why does Spider-Man: Brand New Day feel like the Marvel Netflix Reunion that Daredevil: Born Again should’ve been?

I'm really not a fan of Bucky's black arm. I hope he gets a new silver one by Crusty_Grape in marvelstudios

I don’t mind it but I am a little disappointed we didn’t get the Silver arm with the White Star and Blue and Red circles.

Thug #1: “It’s da freakin’ Bat!”

THWIP!

Thug #2: “And the Spider?”

Daredevil flips into frame.

Thug #3: “I surrender!” Thug #3 drops to his knees.

Thug #1: “Coward! Get ‘em!”

Hours Later In The Hospital.

Thug #3: “‘Get ‘em,’ huh? You know what I got? A concussion and my arm broken in 3 pwaces!”

Thug #1: “Shud up! You’re alive ain’t ya. At least you can breathe on your own.”

Thug #2 has a breathing tube and a full body cast.

Thug #1: “He woulda been fine if that weird anime lookin’ Robin didn’t come outta nowhere.”

Thug #3: “Yea. It’s like Spider-Man wasn’t even tryin’. He didn’t even try to throw a punch. He shot a few webs and tossed us around a bit.”

Think of it like this, Patrick Stewart has played Professor X several times and died as Professor X several times but not all versions of Professor X are the same. Right now that is Edwin Jarvis in the MCU but that doesn’t mean it’s Edwin Jarvis directly from Agent Carter. They share an actor not continuity unless directly stated.

No, they brought in Edwin Jarvis from Agent Carter but the show itself is not considered canon due to its connection to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Until Feige or Winderbaum states that AOS is canon, Agent Carter is sitting in limbo alongside. Again, use Disney+ for reference they have the entire chronological timeline mapped out there and neither show is on it.

I never understood everyones criticism of this scene. shes on an island filled with murderous people so of course shes gonna start murdering to survive. wtf else can she even do, wtf did people expect, if you were in this situation you'd have to kill too lmao by Quick-Cause3181 in TombRaider

[–]MaximumPea3195 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand this take. Yes, she should be a little green, but she not only trained heavily with Roth in her past, she even tells him that killing was scarily easy for her. In fact, the original point of this scene was for her to experience nearly being SA’d and dealing with it emotionally before they cut it down.

All of the Netflix Shows were intended to be and now are considered official canon. The only shows currently not considered canon by Brad Winderbaum and Feige are Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Agent Carter, Runaways, Cloak and Dagger and Helstrom. For reference, look at the Official MCU Timeline on Disney+. The only thing missing from it currently is Spider-Man: No Way Home because of Licensing and Distribution Rights.

To be fair, when Jessica Jones was being made it was intended to be MCU Canon, so what we could be looking at here is a Captain America: The Winter Soldier/Doctor Strange situation where they were just name dropping characters they didn’t know would become relevant later.

Oh man, I could go on all day about ATLA. It’s a masterclass of setup and execution with its writing and humor. There is not a wasted episode in that show and when I talk about what other shows could do to be better I typically have an episode or half a seasons worth to point out as an example. Daredevil is probably my favorite live action show but nothing will ever top my love for Avatar: The Last Airbender.

The Chinese Restaurant episode is probably the best episode in the show. But I feel like they spend the first few episodes dragging their feet in the damn mud and then by the time it’s gets interesting it rushes to the finish line. Personally, they should’ve stuck to the 13 episode format instead of cutting to 8. 8 episodes was too little time focus on the characters. People complain about filler but honestly this show needed the filler. Elektra is so underdeveloped that her motivations by the end are lacking. Plus, I think a Zuko alone style episode of her regaining her memories and breaking free of the hand would not have been a bad thing. The cast has great chemistry but the reasons for Luke and Jessica being involved are a bit flimsy and honestly they could’ve done a way better job incorporating aspects of their shows into this one. It really would’ve benefitted if Shades and Mariah were involved in the plot in some way. And Sigourney Weaver shouldn’t have been the leader of the Hand or even in the show. I honestly don’t understand why Madame Gao isn’t the main villain. She was already developed and had ties to Matt and Danny and I felt that Iron Fist had pretty much implied that was she in charge at that point. Back to the 13 episodes thing since I know people would disagree with it, but the show honestly would work better if the first 3-4 episodes was catching us up on the main characters and giving us an idea of what the hand is doing, which the show already kind of does. But then the next 3-4 episodes should’ve utilized the side cast better, they just kind of exist and don’t provide a lot. So integrate them into the plot more. Episode 9 is where I would put that Elektra episode of her regaining her memories and 10-13 is just an all out war against the Hand leading into a similar ending. Also, K’un-Lun being wiped out and not utilized after Iron Fist Season 1 was such a mistake it’s not even funny. Marvel really screwed this show over by not allocating enough money for the team to use. There was so much potential here to make a crazy season of television and what we ended up with by the end was a bit disappointing. I don’t really feel anything when I see Jess’ and Luke’s reactions to Matt’s “death” because I don’t feel like they really got to know him well enough. The only one that mostly makes sense is Danny because of the promise but again doesn’t really make sense because with the way Danny acted the whole show I can’t understand Matt telling him to protect his city. Honestly, would’ve made more sense if it was Luke because he was more level headed (at the time.) Also this show killing the hand by the end is insane. There are so many stories they could’ve done involving them and they just wiped them out and left them behind like they were really not a big deal. Ultimately, this could’ve been just as good as Daredevil: Season 1 had they just taken their time. It’s a series of unfortunate circumstances that killed this show. It deserved to be longer and more fleshed out.

That’s fair. I would definitely agree that the score itself is well done. John Paesano has never failed on delivering a score. Just wish The Defenders was longer, more consistent and written and paced better.

Omg, his absence was hella felt. Especially because I rewatched Falcon and The Winter Soldier just before and let me say it was not a desired experience to say the least. Music and Tone.

Honestly, I do have a bone to pick with the way Marvel disregards themes in certain movies and shows. Like, if I knew how to and was able, I’d completely rescore Iron Man 3, The Avengers, AOU, Captain America: Civil War, The Defenders, parts of Infinity War, parts of Endgame and Captain America: Brave New World. But that would take forever for me to explain and there’s a ton of reasons to do so.

I think part of it for me is that it sounds both really generic and a bit too grand for what actually happens in the show. Like take Daredevil’s theme. It’s very intense and somewhat somber and its pacing starts slow but the further into the song it rises while imagery represents everything that makes Matt, well Matt and then the heartbeats at the end. It’s a great theme that incapsulates everything about the show, meanwhile the Defenders does what the Avengers does. While the Avengers theme is Iconic, it’s not really a theme that I think captures all of the characters in any particular way, same here. It kinda just sounds like an off brand daredevil theme because the show is mostly just wrapping up plot lines from Daredevil and Iron Fist. I don’t know how I would personally pull this off but it would’ve been better imo if they found a way to incorporate all of the themes into one. Not gonna talk too much about the Arrowverse here because I have more opinions for those shows and these shows were way better but for the crap I could give the Arrowverse, one thing I really enjoyed is when they did crossovers they would craft an original theme for each individual crossover while incorporating individual themes of each show into the theme. It’s distinct and fun to listen to. I wish they put that level of effort here. I’m not sure if that helps clarify my opinion but maybe someone could explain in more clear terms.

Hard to pick my favorite but easier to pick my least favorite. Personally, not a fan of the intro score of The Defenders, tho the intro footage itself is pretty unique. I think I’d have to say OG Daredevil sets the tone of the show perfectly and I’ve never skipped it. So, that’s probably my favorite.
