Re: Daredevil: Born Again

No words…. And not in a good way.

Screw you Disney.

Re: Daredevil: Born Again

I mistakenly thought that EP08 was the last of the season...after watching EP09 I wish that was true.
They could've done a lot with the material after EP08 but what they chose to do...meh.

▼Spoiler

At least we got to see Punisher and Karen again. That are two of the positives.
Punisher loosing to a dozen cops...nah not realistic - they would've needed at least twice that amount.

Also Fisk crushing the comissioners head with his bare hands...that reminded me of the Fisk from the original series smile

That Task Force though...they kinda made it look like every cop in NY turned evil overnight...

Deserved more runtime:
Abbys | Dead Like Me | Devs | Firefly | Gangsta. | Jack of all Trades | Kevin (probably) saves the World | Lodge 49 | Mrs. Davis | NYC 22 | Powerless | Roadkill | Special Unit 2 | Stumptown | Surface | The Brave | The Crazy Ones | The Finder | The Middleman | Truth Seekers | Two Weeks to Live | Whiskey Cavalier

Re: Daredevil: Born Again

Yeah... At least we good an "okay" finale, all things considered. I don't see myself returning for more, if this gets renewed.

Re: Daredevil: Born Again

First episode of Season 2...

If you liked Season 1, you will probably like Season 2 as well - didn't change much except that Deborah Ann Woll now seems to have a starring role instead of guest appearances.

Pretty decent recap at the beginning, so no need to watch a separate one imho.

Gonna keep watching at least until the episode(s?) with Jessica Jones smile

Re: Daredevil: Born Again

With the Season 2 finale I can safely say that it had ~5% of what I wanted from it.

And these 5% were Jessica Jones and some other...cameo's smile
...but all that was contained in 2-3 good scenes, everything else was just meh.

▼Spoiler

I really hope they are finally done with Fisk, I am tired of this character (as much as I admire Vincent D'Onofrio).

That handshake after he killed a couple dozen people with his bare hands...they should've shown the emotional weight of ending their war - but nothing, you couldn't detect any intensity during that scene...

Re: Daredevil: Born Again

i am not going to say disney ruined yet another marvel endeavor.
season one and season two have been pretty much the best
marvel tv since hawkeye and is about on par with that also.
(which is not a very high bar, but seems to be better then many can manage)

so i would say about 70% of the show was good or better

but not as good as anything the first time around when netflix
ran the various shows. ( well the new  DD seasons may be as good as
the iron fist netflix shows, maybe even a little better)

disney seems like they should stick with cartoon musicals
or goofy mindless comedy. they don't seem to understand
the balance needed in heroic epic endeavors like marvel or starwars too well.

Disney needs to go bankrupt and be obliterated. Anything they have touched in the past decade has been a shitshow.
