One complaint I have so far, and it's more the culmination of all the Marvel Netflix shows, is how similar the style and look is among them. I dunno how to properly phrase it. Reckon it's for consistency sake but it's making this feel very plain.
Second complaint is the hip-hop following Luke Cage around. Like, why.
Are they gonna play hip hop in every damn luke cage scene for the entire season? Its annoying when every other character gets an original score or not any score and it is also very stereotypical.
Only watched ep 1 so far.
While I do remember the Hip Hop beat sound intro when it switches to LC scenes, the thing that stood out to me more, was the yellow/orange color filter they went with in his scenes. It's pretty good, but mostly I remember the early scene of him on the bus, crossing the river. Just a fantastic shot scene of the city in that light.
I laughed out loud in ep 3 when Luke and Danny fought back to back and they played RTJ.
Time to scrap this shit and have Feige make a Marvel Knights imprint for the MCU.
The fight chronography and camera work is so so bad in this show. Often you don't know who is fighting who and where. Murdock will fight someone and suddenly it'll be a close up shot of someone picking up a brick but you don't know who it is, turns out it's Like Cage hitting someone else...but I don't know if he's the same guy Murdock was fighting.
Way too much shaky cam, way too many cuts and close ups Ugh ! Where's the guy who did fight scenes for Daredevil? It seems like it's the Iron Fist guy's handiwork.
Marvel Executive: Yo, Siggy Weaves!
Sigourney Weaver: Sup!
Marvel Executive: We'll pay you a large sum of money to appear in The Defenders!
Sigourney Weaver: What will I have to do?
Marvel Executive: Stand around in fancy outfits in static locations whilst delivering endless reams of vague, expository dialogue whilst saying "My child" every twenty seconds.
Sigourney Weaver: Done!
Why is it only 8 episodes?!?!
Almost all of the recent Netflix shows are 8 or 10 episodes.
Ozark had 10.
Atypical had 8.
Defenders has 8.
No more 13-episode seasons?
Is supersplaining an official term?I feel Matt's conversation with the kid in the wheelchair should led off with "Now I'm going to give you advice seemingly based around how I overcame my disability through personal experience. Honestly though, it's superpowers motherfucker!"

Kingpin and Kilgrave were superb, so I'm not sure where you're getting that idea.
It did 3 times tho
Kingpin, Killgrave, and Mariah/Cottonmouth are better than most of the villains in the MCU films.
so is there a Punisher teaser / release date at the end like there was for Luke Cage?
or anything at the end?
comes out tonight right? hell yeah
Yea, there's a Punisher teaser.
Eh, can't make you like a villain obviously, but let's not act like Kilgrave ain't carry the fuck out of Jessica Jones lol
release date?
Kilgrave was the best part of JJ and that is what makes it bad. Tennant didn't act well in it for me and hammed it up way too much for my liking. Having seen Tennant in a lot of other shows it is by far one of his worst parts.
Are they makong more shows after defenders? What about defenders S2?
Probably why you weren't as critical as me ha. He just seemed half assed which is a let down.Haven't seen him in other stuff, so no comment there.
Confirmed:Are they makong more shows after defenders? What about defenders S2?

I really enjoy all of Krysten Ritter's scenes as Jessica Jones. She's a fun character.
