Post by: tp4tissue on Sun, 12 April 2015, 20:57:05

Should I start on this first or house of cards season 3?
Heard both were a let down.

House of cards S03 is better than daredevil.. I wouldn't bother watching daredevil, unless you're a super fan

Lots of people I talk too where saying it's a lot better than Arrow, for example. I didn't hear it was bad.

What don't you like? I haven't seen it, yet.

Well I can't go into what I didn't like without spoilers...

But yea, Arrow is equally bad... I didn't even get through the first episode, so I never posted about arrow.

Yes it is, but just comparing super hero shows.



EDIT, it is on CW.

I liked it. The whole season is 1 fairly coherent story arc, which is pretty decent. Not quite focusing on the 'origin story' per se, but early times I guess. I never followed the comic, so I don't know if it sticks to cannon at all or not. The people cast in their roles are all pretty competent. Good production. Perhaps many complain due to the story is a bit slower paced than may be expected from comics source material, and it's not super heavy on action/fight scenes. I personally appreciated they didn't go bananas with the CGI... it makes it a bit more realistic not like a god damned cartoon.

Well it's not hard to be better than Arrow, probably one of the most boring show I've watched.

And yeah House Of Cards S03 wasn't that great.

Lol, she's pretty hot I might say  ;) Esp in the first episode.

Anyways, I watched only 2 episodes of DareDevil so far and it's been alright.
Only watched it since they said there's a cross over with Agents of Shield.
That tho is a really great show compared to Flash and Arrow.  :)

It's good. I enjoy it, not something as cheesy and as bad as Flash or Arrow. The fight scenes look very much fake in 2-3 first episodes and get better (along with the story) through the middle of the season.


The only thing I hate is the trying-to-hard voice and act of D'Onofrio



//That bastard in Jon Wick looks like a Kingman's in this series.

She's not hot at all in the show..

You gotta watch the 1080p..  Hi-res is not flattering whatsoever..

Then again, she's not AS hot as other ladies in Marvel's series.

I've been watching 1 daredevil ep then switching to house of cards.

This season of house of cards feels so weird.
Underwood hasn't even been elected yet and they're already mashing in all the elements from the third series Urqhart.
This just feels so thematically wrong.

Just watched some of Daredevil, and I have to say I really like it. It's dark and gritty. Unlike most of Marvels material thus far. It's Great.  :thumb:

currently on ep 5 or 6. not sure.

I like it, very dark and suspenseful. i think its on par with arrow, i like flash more(less so in recent eps). has one cute girl so far, arrow is stacked in that regard though.

Just finished the whole season.  I like the costume, Marvel's been doing good with the design, look again at the similiar-theme Flash, DC still got a long way.

I watched that last night.
I was thinking that too myself, especially considering how "clean" that episode was compared to basically every brutal and bloody fight scene in every episode before this.

Arrow is a DC universe and only shares crossover with Flash at the moment.
Daredevil is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) which only the recent Marvel movies and tv show (agent of being very bad shieldhydra) share.

It's OK (on the 4th episode) but there are a ton of super slow moments that seem to drag on and on between any real plot development. I totally disagree about the whole CGI thing though. From my understanding Daredevil was specifically chosen because he is a more gritty and realistic superhero that doesn't require any huge FX budget. He isn't superhuman, and neither are any of his enemies.

Everything else aside, I think Punisher would've made a far better series if they wanted a lower budget comic book drama series. Or for that matter; Moon Knight.

It's cool man, never stop being you. I mean, when I read that I just thought about a guy making sacrifices because he loves his wife and wants to spend more time with her no matter if he likes the show or not. But maybe that's weird, I dunno what's weird anymore.

The show isn't too bad so far. It's a bit slow in th basically all the bits there isn't any fighting. And I think the fighting sequences go on for just a little bit too long.

It's not as bad as the Flash or Scorpion though.

Punisher is a difficult role to sell on screen. Or I just have high standards. 5% chance it could be awesome, 95% chance it's a wasted 2 hours.

Well I thought the 2 movies were pretty good..

And the most expensive things were probably all the explosives...

Punisher just needs to blow things up.. and it'd be pretty spot on.
