Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
Marvels The Defenders | Official Trailer
- Thread starter Broken Joystick
- Start date
Looking forward to that surprise Tony Stark cameo at the very end of the final episode, that'll be paid as a homage to the first post-credits scene in Iron Man.
Tony: Defenders, huh? You guys think you're the only superheroes in the world? As someone once told me...you've become part of a bigger universe. You just don't know it yet.
Jessica: Who the hell are you?
Tony: (Stepping out of the shadows) Tony Stark. I'm glad we could finally get acquainted.
Danny: ....holy shit.
Tony: I'm here to talk to you about the Avengers Initiative.
THE DEFENDERS WILL RETURN IN AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR
You have to go through Shield seasons 1-3 first. Having just finished Legion within the last week, there's definitely some fat towards the end that could've been cut.
They spend too much time in the fake hospital.
Trailer is decent, hopefully Danny is better in this than the half of Iron Fist that I could sit through.

Defenders |OT| Hall Monitors!
While the Punisher stuff was better, I enjoyed the Elektra/Hand stuff as well. Daredevil S2 is awesome.
The show's quality dramatically decreases once Elektra and the Hand bs appear.

Don't do this to yourself.
Hallways have a better chance of appearing in Infinity War than the defenders do.
"...you've become part of a bigger hallway."

Not everyone agrees on that. At all.
It's a common viewpoint on GAF but plenty of people enjoyed the Hand / Elektra stuff.

lol
Hopefully she learns a few new moves aside from grabbing dudes by their clothes and throwing them hard.
Matt: Check out the size of this place!
Luke: Think of all the ninjas we could fight in here!
What is enjoyable about the hand? I'd like to know because these are the lamest foes in the MCU.

Yep its just like honest trailers, its easier to be pessimistic and negative about entertainment then it is to enjoy or form your own criticisms for most people
I think you mean CinemaSins? Honest Trailers honestly doesn't seem that pessimistic or negative.
Nah, I don't agree. I have very few issues with Daredevil S2. One of the best things in the MCU.

Yeah. It's obviously gonna be Peter Parker that is going to show up, not Tony Stark!
I enjoyed them back when they were Daredevil's mysterious ninja cult, back before they warped into Iron Fist's vaguely evil community outreach programme.
Season 2 doesn't drag on too long either. Its great. It just managed to be surpassed by season 4.
(Season 1 doesn't "drag on" either. It's the opposite: it starts off slow and ramps up halfway through.)
To be fair, the site reminds you on its home page that TROPES ARE NOT BAD. Too bad idiots insist on ignoring that.
Danny Rand as Scrappy Doo cracks me up, because that's basically what his interactions with Luke and Jessica in the trailer remind me of.
I thought Iron Fist was fine, it seemed the most consistent in terms of pacing and episode to episode quality. The major problem is that while it was more consistent it never came close to some of the highs of the the other shows. It also suffered from the villains not being near as interesting as Kingpin, Killgrave, or Cottonmouth.
Defenders looks like it should be a lot of fun, really looking for ward to it.

The Hand is a lot more interesting than all the Gillian's in MCU, and that's before Thsnos, IMO Thanos is going to be boring.

The Hand stuff in DDS2 I thought was super interesting because they were freaky. The whole draining blood stuff, coming back from the Dead etc. I thought they were creepy and interesting. They were certainly far less compelling in Iron Fist imo.
But I love Elektra. She's just so crazy intense and I think the actress does a great job.

elektra "died" at the end of DD season 2 but the hand has some sort of blood magic power that can bring you back to life, if your head was not severed.
not only that, but elektra is "black sky" which is something the hand has been trying to acquire, something stick has been trying to destroy (which is why he himself tried to kill elektra).

hope this is good because Luke Cage and iron fist could not even hold my attention

Patience. You don't make your own protagonist know everything in the book from the start unless you have a good reason. Danny is still learning about his power.
Lmao the hallway comments. Thought it looked decent, I enjoyed Luke Cage and Daredevil, the other two not so much. Going to watch it for sure, I'm curious to find out what they are going to do besides hallfights.
The hallfights are pretty fun and look really good. How do other superhero series deliver in the action department?
