Iron Fist was not that good. Probably the worst of the Netflix marvel shows
I dont understand how people dont easily say Luke Cage isnt the worst. And Jessica Jones only gets praise because of Kilgrave. Most of JJ sucked.

Not with the Marvel plot but just so it would be cool to see a handicap, black, woman, and Asian fighting.


Handicap: Daredevil

Black: Luke Cage, Misty Knight, Claire Temple

Woman: Misty Knight, Colleen Wing, Jessica Jones, Claire Temple, Trish Walker

Asian: Colleen Wing

As an aside: While I'm dreading actually seeing it in all of its gruesome glory, I'm looking forward to the scene in which Misty loses her arm and gets the bionic replacement.

I'm also one of the ones who doesn't want to see Luke Cage or Iron Fist get a season 2. Instead, I want to see Heroes for Hire and Daughters of the Dragon.

I like that idea as well.

The easter egg that I noticed that I posted earlier was from episode 6, not 5. But apparently not many people saw it. I read two articles so far on easter eggs through the episodes I've seen, and none mentioned it. I'm such a damn nerd.

The Australian guy on youtube that posts all the Easter Eggs pointed it out. Not the number on the door, but the fact that she was the "Bride of 9 Spiders".

I originally thought she was Typhoid Mary when she poisoned him, but I was clearly wrong.

Well having a decent villain is pretty rare in these Marvel properties so yeah Kilgrave was a pretty big deal.

Decent Marvel Villains (Marvel Studios/ABC/Netflix):

Loki
Ronan the Accuser (was actually pretty good)
Wilson Fisk
Kilgrave
Grant Ward/Hive
HYDRA (as an organization)
The Hand (as an organization)

I have VERY high hopes for Maximus the Mad (Iwan Rheon) and Hela (Cate Blanchett) and we haven't really seen enough of Thanos, nor do we know much about Sigourney Weaver's character (The Defenders).

I just finished it being someone who has zero knowledge of the comic character. Honestly the only issue I had with the show was Danny's immaturity. I get that someone removed from society for that long would be incredibly naive, but he acts like a 10 year old in every emotion he displays. The "it's all my fault" stuff started getting old quick and of course they finish the Season with that. I'd like to see another season but hopefully they have him mature a bit.

Marvel Netflix show in my order:

Daredevil
Jessica Jones
Iron Fist

Luke Cage

The only series I didn't enjoy start to finish was Luke Cage. I had it ranked second until they killed offCottonmouth. Once Diamondback became the focus I thought I was watching a tv version of Meteor Man.

Hm...ok. We definitely have some disagreements on what decent is.

Once Cottonmouth died I had a difficult time making it through Luke Cage.

I honestly don't think I can make it through Iron Fist.

Did it have a lower budget than the rest of the shows? It just seems so cheaply done.

This was Diamondback's "power suit". I didn't see anything this bad in Iron Fist.

I'm not a diehard Cage fan or anything but I think you're being a bit dramatic about that suit.

Darrin Cross was terrible
Malekith the Accursed was weak
Kaecilius was mediocre
Whiplash was pathetic
That pathetic attempt at Mandarin was horrible
Diamondback was putrid
Obadiah Stane was bland
Harold Meachum was barely OK
Cornell Stokes was decent, but died too early
Red Skull was too formulaic
Helmut Zemo was underwhelming
John Garrett, Jiayang, Eli Morrow, and Holden Radcliffe combined are a decent villain

I don't know if they can officially make her "Hellcat" until they bring in Daimon Hellstrom.

Netflix MUST make a "Midnight Sons" series starring:

Ghost Rider (they can use Robbie Reyes, IDC)
Moon Knight
Blade
Hellstrom (basically the Marvel version of John Constantine, but with demonic origins and powers)

I don't understand how anyone can hate Iron Fist more than Luke Cage. Iron Fist is the easiest binge watch since Daredevil in my opinion. I will say though, Finn Jones has some moments where his acting is cringeworthy.

I'm not sure why anyone is complaining about the martial arts of Iron Fist. I thought he was incredible and made great use of the Fist.....













.... in the found footage fight scene.
