And there's the key word, "film". That was a movie, and this is an 8 episode show. This has more time to set up and while it drags in the first two episodes, it makes sense so far.

Just finished episode 1.
Did The Hand hook up with Malcolm Merlyn and borrow his old earthquake generator?

Yessss! She's so good.
Danny: It's chi.
Jessica: No it's not.
I love how everyone has kinda been shitting on Danny so far.

They really fucked up the Black Sky shit in Iron Fist.
Right? It's weird. It's Japanese though I'm pretty sure.
That was in IF too? Lol I don't even remember.

People shitting on Danny from all directions might be the most comic book accurate thing in these shows.

Just finished ep 2. Quite liking it so far and wish I could continue but I have to work early tomorrow.
No lies detected...
Real talk, who did you think they were going with, they've been setting them up since DD S1, and IF literally exists to defeat them lol

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Episode 1, Scene 1 and I'm already annoyed. *Sigh* Why do I do this to myself?

If the Avengers was a 8 hour mini series do you think they all would of met within 15 minutes? Movies =/= TV shows, the purpose of the show is to have all 4 characters meet through their story archs so they can achieve the same goal.

Wait, are our wires crossed? I can't figure out whether I agree with you or not.
Slow team buildup = good?
Lmao, so true.

Slow team buildup does = good. You want them to get together 15 minutes in that? Fight for 7 and a half hours? Gotta have that build up for the payoff.

3 stars on netflix lower than Iron Fist lol.
Anyway I'm kinda burned out/fatigued of Marvel TV, due to lack of Quality Control and if it wasn't for Charlie Cox I'd skip this. DDs3 and punisher, Legion has me full.
hope this is good though. Not holding my breath

It came out just a few hours ago, plus Netflix stars are pointless. They have shit pile like The Circle rated at 89%>
The strength of the show is definitely in the character interactions. I'm liking it better than the back half of Daredevil S2 though. The plot is more Hand/Elektra bullshit but at least it's moving fast.

No I totally agree, this is why my wires were crossed

The story, while interesting, is not great. The 5 hands did not impress me either. If I am Netflix, I won't be so kin to renew that Marvel and Netflix deal. I think Netflix should consider focusing on IPs or universes they can control from now on.
I mean, I'm not gonna act like I know about the deal's benefits for each group, but they'd probably want to continue having Marvel shows lol
Also, all of the shows are getting 2nd/3rd seasons, with Punisher also getting his own show anyhow.
All I can say is right now, I hope the Hand never comes back after this is all over.

Matt, Luke, and Jessica are the voices of the viewer.
And Stick. And the Hand.
Never said that's what I expected but some people do.

Plot-twist, Danny is the bad guy in the Marvel Netflix Universe
Netflix kept Hemlock Grove around for three seasons and not even Iron Fist is as bad as that. I have a feeling they're more than happy with how the Marvel Netflixverse is doing.
Yeah, I hope so too. This kinda feels like it will be though.
Just finished episode 5 and man... how many L's can Danny hold over the course of this show lol.
