Gilok posted:You know, I was kind of wondering about that. We never saw that guy's face and I wondered briefly if that might be their version of Bullseye, since he was an assassin working for Kingpin. His role was kind of pivotal to the storyline and it was odd to me that we never found out anything about that sniper at all. Of course I was actively looking for that character to show up. I was thinking about it, the only thing that dissuaded me is that the cop guy lived, and Bullseye wouldn't make that mistake. Still it would awesome if it was and he shows up in Season 2.

Light Gun Man posted:Daredevil is happening partially because a magic hammer wielder trashed some poo poo while fighting aliens. It's already part of the world it takes place in. It's consistent with the comic too, a lot of his runs have DD start out mopping alleys with mugger blood and teeth and eventually he's fighting/leading a demonic ninja army, he wraps it up and goes back to punching in purse snatches' mouths.

counterfeitsaint posted:It wasn't until several hours later I remembered Leland's earlier comment, "I'm gonna get my stun gun out of storage." It made me love that scene even more. I immediately got the call back, but it wasn't until the simple "rear end in a top hat." as he drove off that got me rolling on the floor from laughter.

Good question, I actually hear my SO humming the chinese song in the shower after we watched the ep. I'm curious if it has any significance.

Unmature posted:In many ways Daredevil is one of the most comics accurate movie adaptations ever. Say what you will, but that movie had tons of respect for the material. More than Man of Steel that's for drat sure. I just watched it a couple days ago (and Elektra, it's okay I'm recovering nicely). And it's true, my girlfriend even pointed out that they went more into Matt's powers and abilities than in the netflix show and showed the downside of them more too. And the costume is better if the overall plot wasn't. Pimpin' Kingpin was hilariously bad as was the Bullseye fight.

BottledBodhisvata posted:I thought the fight with Nobu clearly shows that it was Nobu's grandstanding that kills him--doing all the scraping the blade on the floor and stylish poo poo, causing sparks that'd set him ablaze. Nope, DD chucks a piece of wood at the light and sparks cause Nobu's gas soaked clothes to catch fire.

I thought this we pretty much settled in Thor 2 with Nat Portman talking about the Soul Siphon(?) or whatever just being a [*science thingy*] while they were examining her. Right before Odin calls her a goat.

Nobu's murder probably was going to be discussed but then Rosario Dawson couldn't come back because of filming other things. Remember she patched him up after the Nobu fight, but that was all off screen. She probably gave him a big lecture and Matt half-awake/half-passed out agreed that he was a very naughty boy.

Black Panther was Prince and is now a King; just another elitist. What does he know about the average black life? While he's living in his techo-jungle drinking from his vibranium wine flute, the rest of use are living here in the real jungle made of concrete! "Oh my suit is bulletproof!", you say, "Bitch, you can afford it, me, all i have is my skin."

Cythereal posted:So the villain in Luke Cage is apparently a dude named Cottonmouth. Can anyone familiar with the comics give a brief rundown on the guy and what we're likely to see? He's just a drug lord who likes getting punched out a lot. quote:Cornell Cottonmouth, or just Cottonmouth, started out as a drug kingpin in New York City, involved in the events that led to Luke Cage gaining super powers becoming "Power Man". Cottonmouth tried to recruit Cage to his organization, but ultimately Cage knocked Cottonmouth out and turned him over to police. During the Shadowland storyline Cottonmouth returned as part of Nightshade's gang where they come into conflict with Daredevil as well as a new Power Man, who, like his predecessor, knocked Cottonmouth out and turned him over to police.

I could see Silver Sable being used in Agents. She is a low powered (i.e. human) merc that hangs out with Deathlok a bunch. Seems like a natural fit to their setting.

ApeHawk posted:Actually, that part kinda stuck out to me, because Ellis is the President in the MCU, not Obama, unless he is still a senator in this universe. It's possible Ellis' term ended and Obama started in the time between Iron Man 3 and Luke Cage. (but probably a continuity slip for a cheap joke)

STAC Goat posted:I think its pretty heavily made clear Danny bailed on his training but I supposed I'd have to rewatch it to be sure of that. That seemed like a pretty critical part of Davos' exposition. He at the very least is massively ignorant of the role of the Iron Fist and all kinds of crucial information that comes up in Defenders. I thought it was more, he trained harder than others, working through some guilty or inferiority complex but then when he finally attained the end goal (becoming Iron Fist) he realized how hollow it was for him. He bailed on his position, to protect the mountain pass. But that was after the training and defeating the dragon. Passage opened and he noped out. Which is what Davos was being critical of.
