I mean, I thought guessed this when the guy who played Loras Tyrell of all actors got cast as the lead.
FUCK YOU SCOTT BUCK
His name is Scott Buck and he likes to fuck (Iron Fist)
It's a different Iron Fist. I forgot his name but he would transfer his powers to the guns to make it do extra damage.Is that a misleading cover? Why would a character called Iron Fist use guns?

Thor 2 and even Iron Man 3 isn't on this level. This truly is Marvel's first major L.
But Iron Man 3 was awesome, so that's the difference there.
But Colleens brilliance also shines a light on the shows troubling portrayal of Asian-inspired cultures through the lens of its white protagonist. For all the talk going in that the show would deal with the uncomfortable aspects of appropriation rooted in Danny Rands origin stories, there is literally a scene in the third episode where Dannywho really does feel like hes that one annoying friend of yours who took a gap year before university, went backpacking in the far east, did some tai chi, and suddenly thought that they totally got the culture, manexplains how much better he is at martial arts than Colleen, in an attempt to show how much she needs his protection, in the middle of the fucking martial arts dojo that she owns. Its not the only time the show goes out of the way to tell us how much better Danny purportedly is meant to be at many aspects of Asian culture (not just martial arts, but elements of spiritualism and even mastery of language come up across multiple episodes) than the many Asian people he is surrounded by, either, and if it werent so mind-bogglingly offensive in its execution itd almost be hilarious.
It's a shame a real shame.
I like iron fist, he's probably my favorite low key marvel hero.
I'll probably still watch it anyways.
But still it's a real shame.
But not that surprising if it's made by the same guy that made me drop dexter.
Why are people giving him work?
Why does he exist?
Gosh darn it.
It seems Marvel had no idea what to do with it.It's a shame a real shame.

Definition of being tone deafed. Which tons of people still are, especially in entertainment.MotherFUCKER.
How do you fuck that up? You'd think that Buck and the writers would actually keep an eye on any potentially racially tinged BS, considering how they've been facing a racial controversy since the beginning.

Hot damn. Looks like our impressions from the featurettes were spot on.From the io9 review.

Still don't get why Netflix insists on each one of these Marvel shows being 13 episodes. They'd be sooo much better if they trimmed the excess soap opera bloat each show suffers from & keep them to a tight 5-to-6 episodes. Ghost Rider was done incredibly well on this current season of Agents of Shield and if that character were to get his own Netflix series (which I hope he does!), I'd hope it wouldn't be more than 7 episodes in length.

I'm sad now.
You can't complain the 2nd half is bad if all of them are bad.
Only if you happen to be a mediocre white man.Hollywood. Failing upwards.
Is that a misleading cover? Why would a character called Iron Fist use guns?
Seeing as Marvel has been trying to do better...I doubt that'll be the caseUnfortunately the message that The Powers That Be will take home from this is that casting THAT MANY Asians results in poor reviews.
Fuuuuuuuck......
Seriously. Considering the amount of unwarranted praise that critics heaped upon Marvel's other mediocrities, this one must be truly awful if it's actually getting bad reviews.

So............it's like a DC show?

Or the writers could just structure their shows differently. Why is every episode 55-60 minutes? Why doesn't DD and JJ have more procedural stories to space out the main plot - he's a lawyer and she's a detective! They're built for procedural episodes!
