I love how the lighting for each hero is mostly different. Matt's scene are red, Luke's yellow, Jessica's blue, Danny's green. They are technically a four-team sentai team at this rate.

Half way through Defenders and it's amazing. First two episodes are a little slow but the rest is really good so far.

What a god damn excellent show this was! We started watching it with the plan to watch four episodes tonight, and four tomorrow and ended up just watching all eight without a break. First off, holy shit, Jessica Jones was awesome here. I found her completely unlikable in her first season, but loved nearly every scene she was featured in in this show. All of her one liners were spot out and Ritter did a great job. I hope this is the Jessica we have in her next season as now I am looking forward to it.
Secondly, the chemistry between our main heroes was also phenomenal. Their banter across each other was hilarious and it was nice to see the group act like a bunch of misfits who don't get along, but ultimately decided to put aside their differences to save the city because that is what real heroes do. Next up, the fight choreography was top notch. Why couldn't it have been like this in Iron Fist? This is exactly what it should have been. Not to mention this show even made Danny a likable character too. My favorite fight scene is in the underground area of episode 8 when the camera just kept moving around and we got to see everyone get some great moves in without it feeling obnoxious. Of course, the first fight scene with all four was also great with its camera work. In fact, the cinematography was just top notch all around. I feel it was on par with what we got from Luke's season. On the downside, since we already know these characters, don't go in expecting the best character development of the franchise. It still has a lot of that, but since we already know who these characters are, they didn't waste time on origin stories and the like, which is the way it should have been. The same goes for the villains. We have already had three of the five seasons dealing with The Hand, so there is no Kingpin or Purple Man levels of development. Of course, Sigourney Weaver really steals the show whenever she is on camera, so it's not like we have mediocre villains like the movies tend to have. There is a lot of depth to her character. The only flaws I can think of include them not really telling us how Luke got out of jail, no costume for Iron Fist, and Colleen gets stuck as a background character for most of the show. Nevertheless, CW/WB/DC have A LOT to live up to with this year's crossover for their Flash/Arrowverse. This may also be my favorite Netflix season thus far. |

Haven't seen Defenders yet due to lack of time but from what I hear, it's good but Sigourney's character didn't live up to the actress' reputation

Dear Netflix, Please have Mr. Bernthal wear this in your show. Pretty please.

I think there already was some promotional material with something, though it looked like he was wearing a bra
