It's what ?
Pretty good ? It's the absolute lowest standards of TV shows currently...

Those first two photos are Party City ad quality.
This dude didn't even bother working out. Yikes.
Marvel is the absolute lowest standards of TV? Hyperbole on the internet is the worst.
JJ was based on a comic book where she had no costum tho.
Should've just had Punisher as the final Defender.
Yeah, some effort would be nice lol. Dude doesn't have to look like Thor to be a believable hero, but he could've at-least done some wrist curls to pump up his forearms.
Charlie Cox went from this:
To this:
The actor had 1 month to get in shape and to learn choreography and stuff. They basically rushed it. I don't know how much we can blame the actor himself for not looking muscular.
Anyway, the grounded aspect and no costume sucks.
Maybe, but then if it's expected to slot into the existing TV-verse then they can't change up the tone/rules too much.

...but ... 
but i was so looking forward to the suit in particular, marvel netflix

I just wanna see this on live-action, it's basically like Daredevil's season 1 outfit, just in green and yellow. It's so weird how averse the Netflix shows are to being full-blown superhero shows.
I think this version is perfectly doable in live action, especially considering that it's pretty much Daredevil's first-appearance suit with a yellow mask and eyes.

Almost everything I've read and seen about this show has ranged from disappointing to shit. After the repetitive slog that was JJ and the drop in quality of second half DDS2 and Cage, I'm starting to lose interest in these.

You think Daredevil Season 2 is grounded..?
Daredevil has a costume because he's vulnerable and leads a life outside that of being a hero. Is wearing a mask because it makes sense changing the tone? Luke Cage is invulnerable and his identity is known anyway. JJ's day job is basically being a meddler/hero type so she don't give a fuck.

lol every fucking time
This show is gonna be just fine, people should at least give it a shot when it's out before concluding it's shittyness because the TV producers took a bit of necessary freedom from the comic books. Netflix Marvel so far has been great and there's no reason at all this won't be.

Also 80% of IF costumes are shitty af, so I'm fine with casual ninja-ing.
Jessica Jones was a mixed affair, Luke Cage was great up to the half point. DD S1 was superb and S2 was a mixed bag again even though I personally liked it. Tell me how this is being great up till this point. I mean, it's all about preferences and people can think that it has been a mixed bag up until now too. I'm personally a little disappointed by the Netflix stuff to be honest.lol every fucking time

And every sign indicates this is not gonna turn out fine, thus people's scepticism. Have you even read Iron Fist? This is Scott Buck, mostly set in New York, it's grounded which indicates not much magic or Kun Lun. The choreography looked shitty so far and the actors had ONE months for preparation.

Wow, really? 1 month? Damn. Yeah can't really blame him.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
I do wonder how long this will last if they keep putting out B level Marvel stuff that all keeps trying to be gritty, grounded, and real.

Each show has gotten progressively more flawed.
DD1 was perfect, JJ dragged a little, DD2 had too much going on, LC was a hot mess.

It would be extreamly painful...
Genuine laugh at that.
I don't get the people who are into comic book adaptations but don't want the comic book stuff.

I don't even want Netflix touching Moon Knight anymore. They'd probably remove Khonshu.

Not super familiar with Iron Fist beyond the basics so I have to ask: is the fact his costume has those massive peripheral vision limiting handicaps as collars ever addressed?

"Luke, Danny, Jessica, you guys wearing your costumes?"
"Yeeeeah, sure. These costumes that we're definitely wearing right now look really cool."
Umm...what on earth am i reading on here. I think the producers of these shows should be given some latitude and trust. The shows have improved steadily to the point that the two seasons of daredevil are the worst (and still pretty good). Jessica Jones is a masterful season of tv with a small bit of slowdown in the middle. Luke Cage has a completely different tone that works perfectly and everything but the end was great.
And i see people comparing it to Agents of Shield...and while i haven't watched the last season that show has been so disappointing for so many seasons that i stopped watching entirely. If you have that long of a run you can eventually get something right, but the vast majority of the show has been forgettable nonsense.

Jessica in costume after her series would be a bit weird
The others though should be in costume, no excuses.
Rygar 8 Bit
Jaguar 64-bit
suit would of helped to hide his flab
yup this but green and cutoff slightly below the elbow and a yellow dragon on the front and a yellow version of the mask with eyes with black highlights bingo bango would of been cheap and easy to make

Why are we hinting st mystical shit?
Daredevil S1 Hinted at it
Daredevil S2 I loved because it confirmed it!!
But Iron Fist, the one I expected to go full speed ahead on the mystic/supernatural side of things....Is "grounded"
Man I'm pretty pissed why we going backwards.

This is still the best Daredevil costume. A shame.
This is the same nonsense as Iron Man 3 is a bad movie because "they got the Mandarin so wrong!"

Yeah basically my thought as well. Iron Fist's costume is basically this costume, so I don't see why it can't work

I love Pokken!

I got the feeling they don't want to use the classic suit exactly because its very similar to the black suit.
Pretty much.
That's a shame they couldn't have given him more time.
Cus I love comic books and media based off them? Doesn't mean this particular costume looks too goofy to look okay in live action.
