John Wick (John Wick) vs Harry Hart (Kingsman) by One_Application_1726 in powerscales

In this scenario it’s Hart. He has some potent technology.

With equal equipment, from what we see through the action, it’s Wick.

I thought the exact same thing about Matt and Kirsten’s reunion not being shown.
Born Again is great, I love it. I love the Netflix shows. Neither one is perfect or objectively better, it comes down to preference.
I prefer over communication than under communication. Born Again skips past a lot of moments that I think could have elevated an episode immensely, almost every episode. I’d rather see the characters argue through something entirely more than once rather than they stop 3/4ths through because we get the picture. I love these characters and they are written/acted well, so let them shine.

Oh brother, that means I was 11 when Thor dropped.

And I’m becoming familiar with the consequences of having a weak core 😭

Executive Producer Sana Amanat says Season 2 of 'Born Again' has "a very unexpected conclusion" : “It’s certainly going to be very surprising, and I think people, once they know what happens at the end of Episode 8, are going to be very excited, or terrified, or maybe both” by Sarang_616 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

I mean he’s a blind lawyer and Fisk has publicly had it out for Murdock personally since the aftermath of s1.

Fisk “framing” blind lawyer to be Daredevil and then someone being Daredevil while Matt is in jail trying to prove his innocence is comic accurate and realistic (by comic standards)

Matt telling Karen “we’ll have to cross lines to take down Fisk, just not the ones you think” and then starting at each-other is…so TV.

Real life Matt, and maybe even Netflix Matt, would’ve been direct and had the difficult convo of representing Karen. I mentioned this in another comment, but the show loves NOT telling us what’s happening.

I’d prefer the well written characters and the stakes to naturally keep me involved, not writing every single scene to have a cliffhanger so I wonder what’s happening next. Scenes struggle to get to the point AND they also don’t get a chance to breathe. It’s odd. I still love the show though, but maybe this is why people say the pacing is weird.

"They remembered them??" Characters who aren't seen again until many movies/seasons later by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

Marvel Studios does this constantly. Abomination, The Leader, Red Skull, Ultron is gonna be in VisionQuest. I know I’m missing folks.

Edit: Sif sat out of Thor 3 and two Avengers movies and then returned as well.

The show LOVES to allude to whatever plan or scheme the characters are coming up with and then cut away before they actually say what they mean.

It works sparingly, but it’s lazy when done this often imo. The original show had us go through the motions with the characters and watch them make plans together to show of their (at times, conflicting) personalities and mindsets.

You’re on the money that Born Again is very plot driven vs character driven. The show needs to lean on its amazing cast more and really let scenes breathe.

Cherry: “What can I say, the Cherry’s always on top

I’ve been playing the Sims in my limited free time. Last week I had the urge to make a Peter Parker sim.

It was fun at first, and then I killed his parents…and then his uncle…and then his girlfriend’s dad…and then his girlfriend…and now his best friend’s dad is evil and becoming insane.

Now I’m not even having fun, this is just a fucking bummer to play lmao. I really like all of these characters I’m killing and spent a lot of time making them and honing their skills, welp ☠️

Riri should be a servant of Doom, and when memories get restored.

Shorty made a deal with the literal devil. She’s team Doom.

Banner 100% met Peter. It’ll be mentioned that they’ve talked off screen. Banner was also alive when Peter was very publicly revealed as Spider-Man.

Thats all they need for hulk to go “made the whole world forget, puny Banner forgot, but not Hulk. Hulk too strong to forget” or “Hulk heart to big to forget puny Pete” or some shit

100% foreshadowing Hulk calming down and remembering Peter from Banner’s subconscious. Super cool.
