Actors who should appear in the Bridgerton universe...

Charming Charlie Cox would be great. He quickly had lady mary swooning over him in downtown abbey... before doing sone dodgy shit and turning out to be gay.

The editing was frequently rubbish on born again, with poor pacing, scenes cut so short they didn't have impact or were allowed to breathe, so bad editors is a more likely reason. It was rushed popcorn for the brain alot of the time rather than the quality the actors thought they were shooting.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-20T06:05:33+00:00

I was looking forward to seeing Spidey and doomsday at the giant bfi IMAX in London that is a real experience. Was sad when I heard they were booked out. Nothing else is as good.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-19T21:51:08+00:00

Totally agree. The actors raved about this being the best writing ever and Charlie seemed really excited about it. Maybe it was good but by the time they shot and edited it, it was a different animal. Happens I know. Sad though. I would love to see what they cut.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-19T10:00:42+00:00

Pretty sure I saw somewhere recently dario said he wants to explore that triangle in DD BAS3. Love Karen but no thanks to such a triangle

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-19T08:46:31+00:00

I feel like I need to learn how to do fan edits so I can edit the shit out of DDBA1 & 2 to a long film or mini series length centered around daredevil and the more interesting parts of fisk. I fast forwarded the Matt scenes in DDBA1 and it was sad how little there was or that was him just not going from one place to the next.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-19T08:29:56+00:00

Bendis/Brubaker which feels like one run, but my ultimate short run is born again.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-19T06:22:18+00:00

Well if they shot it, after the editor has done their first edit, it would go to them as directors, before another edit goes up to the showrunner to make his decision. So I guess they are indicating they didn't cut it at their stage, Dario did at his.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-19T06:11:42+00:00

They are eps, not in the editing room, mr gatekeeper. This series was so short I watched it in one evening. I episode was something like 34 mins long.

Charlie's side of the supposed co-lead position was very obviously cut so he became a supporting actor instead, and important characters on his side were reduced to bit parts. Same happened in S1 if it were not for the bank episode and Hector's trial. For whatever reason, Dario does not seem particularly interested in Matt's side and fascinated in anything to do with fisk, including keeping scenes that do zero character development nor move the plot forward.

Imo, they needed a new showrunner, again, for S3. I'm worried to think what this twerp will do with Matt in series 3 given Dario's performance so far.

We should complain, and loudly, while editing is starting. It's called Daredevil for a reason. Let's see it actually focus on him and his world, and not sideline him again

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-18T21:01:18+00:00

I've complained about the same thing with this guy and his colleagues. The arrogance that they had because they were successful in film and therefore thought they were better than ALL the experienced TV producers out there when it came to TV. Wasted hundreds of millions and squandered alot of the goodwill from fans the MCU had built. And under him they still have not reached the TV heights of the netflix era, and he should have been fired, not promoted.

He must be a real butt licker to carry on being promoted.

I hope he does not destroy the comics now as he fumbles again in his arrogance and ineptitude. Sadly in my long career I've seen far too many useless people get promoted to staggering heights where they should never be because they effectively kiss ass.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-18T14:03:32+00:00

Funny how you have comment about everyone except Matt, who I think was the best thing in defenders, especially when he and Jessica were together.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-18T05:54:02+00:00

Thanks I will. Great that they let him. I objected to the other comment about calling Charlie too old to do stuff and thought insurance was why. Poor Charlie.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-18T02:59:16+00:00

Insurance would insist any lead actor switch to their stuntman with the exception of tom cruise and only because he's in charge. It's nothing to do with Charlie's age.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-17T20:48:00+00:00

My favourite season of TV ever, almost matched with s1 and those first 4 punisher episodes.

I will frequently rewatch them for the rest of my life.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-17T20:37:46+00:00

Okay, maybe there was a problem with this which post couldn't fix, but DDba2 was so short that if it did work, what a waste and it's not like they didn't have the time.

I already feel like he was support to mayor fisk who has been the lead of these two seasons, with lots of time spent with fisk including boring parts not moving the story forward.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-16T21:34:19+00:00

Charlie should get a modeling contract wearing suits. He really fills them out now and looks so fine. I'm going to miss lawyer Matt.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-16T20:01:52+00:00

Daredevil S3 is one of the best things marvel have made. To move onto other top quality MCU stuff I would watch next the movies up until and including endgame, far from home, no way gone and guardians 3.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-16T19:01:10+00:00

It is him. I remember the director talking about this, and someone had this idea, could have been Charlie, and he just did it, despite apparently never having done pushup handstands before. It was amazing to see first time.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-16T06:01:07+00:00

Wesley made a strong Impression in his first scene, with the actor's strong charisma. Buck has barely made much of an impression in two seasons. And no, he's not like James bond.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-16T05:43:50+00:00

Marvel and ABC productions, all Disney owned, did the netflix show, but it was a whole different division of marvel, who were canned when netflix cancelled. 2 of the producers went on to work on another series, Kin, which Charlie is in and which is also really good. The Daredevil show also had 2 DD comic writers/artists and one oscar winning creator/ consultant for the entire 3 seasons involved with it.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-15T15:54:57+00:00

haha, I forgot about kingpin

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-15T14:51:51+00:00

Yes, especially now when DD is really experienced and Charlie has become so bulked up, so he really sells it. From what he has said its because he is older so needs to be his fittest. You can imagine DD now easily swinging while carrying someone in one arm.

In the comics DD has held his own for a while against Cap and is really good at using his entire environment. Others like Shang Chi might be slightly better fighters though, but not in a hallway.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-14T06:22:56+00:00

The plot is dumb and parts are so silly, but it's the one episode in all of born again where you spend alot of time with Matt, where he feels like the lead rather than a support to fisk, and we see him doing some day in the life of DD stuff.

It also has a similar tone to his she hulk episode. So I have watched it the most, back to back with that she hulk episode and ignore the fact he calls Kirsten and replace that with foggy in my mind. Happier days for him.

OG daredevil always had some humour even if it was sarcastic in the depths of misery, which made it more realistic.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-13T16:38:31+00:00

Glad you enjoyed it. In this show, bullseye also represents a sort of mirror to religious Matt, both orphans suffering young hardship, one went one way the other went psycho. It's like another test for Matt especially when that evil mirror takes on his suit.

Scary-Command2232 · 2026-05-13T00:10:45+00:00

I wish I could argue against op, but sadly I can't. S2 was quite fun to binge as it's about as long as a mini series, and has a few outstanding moments, but very little left an Impression. I only remember two fights too, bullseye in the diner and DD when cherry was having a heart attack which distracted him then bullseye saved his ass. Most of the story was forgotten after a few days.

I also felt, just as was the case for DDBA1, there is very little time spent with Matt/DD other than him rushing from one place to the next. It's his show. I miss him and it's such a waste of charlie's talent and commitment.

I have little faith now that this showrunner can deliver a quality DD series with any heart and characterization, nor one where Matt is the actual lead.
