STOP RUINING MY FAVORITE CHARACTER DAMMIT

We just need to hug it out. We're in a dark place right now. But if we hold true, we can weather this.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

i really hope jessica jones s2 is good

 

[Anung]

Please, recast Finn Jones.

Pleaaaaaaaaaaase.

Scott Adkins is Iron Fist!

 

[Kai Dracon]

I'm just waiting for Danny to figure out the other hand lights up too.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Phase 2 of NetFlix MCU is gonna be crossovers all over, isn't it?

 

[Zero-ELEC]

here 4 dis

 

[The Last Wizard]

So the show is gonna lose its blackness? It was one of the things Luke Cage had going for it, that and cottonmouth:/

 

[blackflag]

iron fist in luke cage....well thats 1 less show i gotta watch.

 

[Rymuth]

Please no....it will ruin the tone of the show.

It's like putting Rocket Raccoon in Jessica Jones season 2

 

[SurrenderDorothy]

After some of their scenes in Defenders I'm honestly OK with this.

Spoiler

Please don't suck.

 

[PingPongvonLaserstein]

It's like putting Rocket Raccoon in Jessica Jones season 2

Gotta be honest, I'd watch the hell out of that.

 

[The Kree]

No, it's not.

 

[Phased]

Luke Cage's Carhartt game is on point though.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

the two worst marvel tv shows are doing a teamup!?!?

/sips shit milkshake

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

Hot damn they probably are planning to sack both characters

 

[BobLoblaw]

Fuck. I'm out.

 

[BlastCore]

If you're not gonna hire an actor that can actually do (or at least learn) Martial Arts then don't even bother with Iron Fist. Either recast him or say he died on his way to his home planet.

 

[ZeoVGM]

Interesting news. Iron Fist was obviously the worst of the Netflix series (the only bad one, I'd say) but I'm curious if they can start to salvage the character by putting him in this.

Luke S1 was awesome so I have some hope.

Hot damn they probably are planning to sack both characters

Not sure what you mean by this.

 

[a916]

Iron Fist was awful... and Luke Cage was bland and boring after Cottonmouth... looks like Luke Cage S02 will continue that trajectory.

 

[Black Republican]

Danny Rand in Harlem?

ha

 

[ShirAhava]

Great news! I liked Iron Fist ...him failing all the time was interesting....IMO....Comic book Iron Fist is boring 90% of the time.

 

[yunbuns]

Danny was actually tolerable in his scenes with Luke so I don't mind this.

No JJ, no sale. Stop making Luke and Claire happen.

Whatever chemistry Jessica snd Luke are supposed to have isn't there at all imo. Luke's actor has better chem with Rosario.

The Immortal Iron Gentrifier

 

[Jay Shadow]

How to fix Danny:

1) Stop having him say he's the immortal Iron Fist, defender of Kun Lun, sworn enemy of the Hand.
2) Make him actually fight well
3) Let him actually do some cool Iron Fist shit
4) Stop having him say he's the immortal Iron Fist, defender of Kun Lun, sworn enemy of the Hand.
5) Stop having him say he's the immortal Iron Fist, defender of Kun Lun, sworn enemy of the Hand.

Lmao what

You act like that's a bad thing.


I'd watch the hell out of Jess and Rocket, being all drunk and surly together.

 

[munchie64]

I think this could be pretty good. Neither seem to work perfectly on their own but I liked them together on Defenders.

 

[Rymuth]

No, it's not.

you're right, it's much much worse

 

[Stallion Dan]

Iron Fist didn't suck, The Hand sucked, just like in Defenders. Daredevil wore that shit out.

 

[Zhengi]

Played by Stephen Yuen.

No way.

Daniel Wu is a better choice.

 

[Sojgat]

Philip Ng for Shang-Chi.

Just gonna keep saying it until it happens.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Wow Danny Rand and Luke Cage teaming up, what a novel idea. Never saw it coming.

Seriously they should have merged their two shows together in the first place and just called it Heroes for Hire instead of giving either a 2nd season. Maybe that's the direction they're headed anyways.

I'm definitely ready for some Daughters of the Dragon action.

 

[Oddduck]

I want Daredevil to make brief appearances in Jessica Jones.

The chemistry and one-liners between Matt and Jess was one of the best things about The Defenders (which was a very dull show).

 

[- J - D -]

Iron Fist didn't suck, The Hand sucked, just like in Defenders. Daredevil wore that shit out.

Well, all of that, and Iron Fist sucked. They couldn't even do the fight scenes well. The one thing they really needed to get right, and they messed it up.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Danny actually ended up not being the worst thing about Defenders, so I’m okay with this.

 

[Septimus Prime]

Just recast Finn. It worked for Spartacus. In fact, get Liam McIntyre.

 

[chaos789]

Give Iron Fist a mask, so we can have a stunt double at all times. Hopefully that would make for better stunt work.

 

[Sojgat]

The writers are more to blame than Finn Jones. He sucks as Danny, but he was given shit to work with.

 

[Fancyarcher]

But I thought Iron Fist was supposed to be "successful" in terms of viewerships or something? Why not just give him his own second season? Aah writers and executives.

 

[Oddduck]

The writers are more to blame than Finn Jones. He sucks as Danny, but he was given shit to work with.

I agree.

After seeing how awful Inhumans is, I don't see why people throw all of the blame on Finn Jones instead of Scott Buck.

The Defenders is not a well-written show either. With or without Iron Fist.

 

[golem]

My hype has been reduced to 0

It was at 0 before this news however.

 

[GravityInsanity]

What I wanted.

What I get instead and now he's in Luke Cage S2.

Me

 

[DeathyBoy]

Hot take: While I like Luke Cage mostly well, let's be real here. The only good Marvel Netflix series so far is Daredevil.

Jessica Jones is better than Daredevil.

 

[aly]

I just want someone to make Danny not be trash. It shouldn't even be hard to do.

 

[KonradLaw]

Nice. Their interactions were the best thing about Defenders.

 

[Parallax]

Kill him off and pass the mantle of Iron Fist on to Shang Chi.

way to undercut shang

 

[The Maverick]

No suit/mask.
No martial arts.
No charisma.

Why should I care about Iron Fist? Also, Luke and Jessica needed to happen,

Spoiler

Claire should've got bodied at the end of Defenders instead of Misty getting sliced.

 

[CaviarMeths]

While I wasn't too hot on the series, I actually felt that Luke and Danny's moments together in Defenders were pretty good. Their first scene together in the dojo where the conversation seems to be going well, then takes a sharp turn to sour was one of the better interactions in the series.

Yeah, I can't help but think the above is the reason for Danny boy making an appearance.

I'm all for Luke giving him more reality checks. He needs em.
