Lol, that's barely minor
Can't be too careful around here.

It's a weird show. I'm entertained.
Cox, Ritter, and Colter turn in performances too good for it.
The Hand was shitty in DD S2 and they're shitty here. Skipped Iron Fist, which seems to be the right choice.
Episode 3...LOL @the boardroom fight. Laughed my ass off at Luke coming in and sending a guy flying into the wall. So damn good.
I haven't seen Iron Fist, and god is Danny Rand dumb.
Exactly my thoughts.
What happened to the bulky guy in DD Season 1 that was talking with Stick about Matt not being ready, I asume he was a member of the Chaste but it defenitely looked like a villain.

Yo there was that one board member that had a smug look on his face the entire time Alexandra and Danny were talking 😏 Lol
Finished it today; while it dragged a bit in some places overall it was a good watch. The only episode that I wish was improved a bit was #7, I was expect 7-8 to be a big conclusion, but 7 was just a bunch of build up (which didn't 100% pay off).
It's definitely not a bad show, if you like the Marvel stuff it is worth it.
There is no purpose is comparing anything to DD season 1, that had a unique set of conditions. It was the first one and everyone expected very little of it (coming off of low points of Agents of Shield), and it turned out better than expected so that gave it a great boost. On top of that, it spend most of the season showing DD as just a skilled human who didn't have limitless energy for fighting and half the time took as good as he gave. If all of the series was like that, it may have been different overall.
I feel like in Defenders,Jessica is really not used to an advantage. Shes stronger than Luke Cage, but when he punches someone they go flying across the room, when she does it, they get back up half the time.
And what was up with the main Hand guys being so powerful and able to hurt Luke? The guy has bullets bounce off him and doesn't seem to mind. Iron Fist is a fighter who is certainly on the same level as any of the main Hand guys individually, and it showed clearly that unless he actually used his power, Luke didn't even flinch when Danny was unloading normal moves on him.
I just watch episode 1 and yikes was that awful. I hope it gets A LOT better. My wife thought it was okay, but she's really kind to most properties.

Also, I'm sure my opinion of this is almost strictly based on physicality and appearance, butElektra is so good in this series so far.
Just started episode five.
Up to Episode 5. The character interactions are solid, and a big smile spread over my face when I finally saw Luke and Danny fighting side by side. Jessica is great at mocking everyone. I've always loved Charlie Cox's Daredevil, and I feel the same here.
But I'm just not connecting to the villain plot at all. I mean I am invested in Elektra's resurrection, but Sigourney Weaver's vague dialogue with Gao and every other Hand leader is just so meaningless. I get that Jess and Luke have to be introduced to them, but four episodes in and there is still no clue as to what the hell they're doing or what the threat is. For a villainous organization that we've had two separate seasons in two separate shows about, we should be passed this.
Yeah, the villains/the hand is the negative I have with this show. Otherwise, I enjoyed the chemistry with Defenders and the character interactions so much.
Everything just felt forced to me and the dialogue seemed really poor. I guess I was spoiled by only having watched the first season of Daredevil.What did you find awful about it?
Dang @ DD.showing up in costume for the first time
Just finished ep 5, and these are my impressions:
This show dumb and boring, it have zero charm and the action is generic most of the time.
DC shows are dumb and cheesy, but they are have an amazing charm to them despite working with shit budget. You can feel the love and passion of the creators behind them. This show and most Marvel nerflix shows (beside most of DD) are boring and lifeless.
The hand is so wack and never seems like a threat besides gao. I don't understand why she is the only one with powers. She is the best of the bunch by a mile. I kept waiting for Sigourney Weaver to do something amazing and.nothing
Honestly Madame GAO should resurrect purple man and go get a powered up Diamondback and they would be 100 times better and more of a threat than the hand. She should also go resurrect. That's a team I want to see The Defenders fight.Grant ward
It's crazy how much better Agents of Shields has gotten than the Netflix shows and how their villains are so much better then the hand.
Wait, Agents of Shield is actually good? Watched some eps when it started and it did zero for me. Like...absolute zero.

It is. First season was a little rough until the twist(Though my friend who binged the entire thing didn't seem to mind, so I guess it's a lot easier to get through as opposed to watching it weekly), then the seasons after that gets better/remains consistently solid, with Season 4 being the high bar that I would easily put over the Netflix shows.

Hmm, might check it out at some point. I've always loved the Defenders universe, and Daredevil in particular, so my love for these shows probably goes a little further than someone going in without knowledge of DD's history. Everything with Elektra (so far) in Defenders has been damn good and made me so happy, primarily the interactions with Matt.
Is necessary watch iron fist?

I do not understand Luke Cage's invulnerability in this show. One day he can block bullets, the next day a kick to the face knocks him out.
A punch from the Iron Fist, man.
