Dude. I know. Its not the first time I'm seeing a movie trailer

But even when you keep that in mind it just looks terrible. That shot were Psylocke slices thw car in half is just cringeworthy. The framing and angle of that shot is just flat out bad.

how did they get Psylocke so, SO right & yet everyone else is stuck back in the hideous black rubber suits?!

seriously- either bring back Matthew Vaughn or find a new director who's NOT ashamed of superhero costumes.

Oh, Daredevil, you are so, so good.

Just got back from seeing Deadpool. That was everything I could have asked for.

And now my Marvel weekend continues as I just started up Daredevil season 2, episode 1.

Its good but I was really dissappointed with the last third of the season. Season 1 felt a lot tighter.

I think because it had a broader story to tell. If it had been just the one major plotline again, it probably would have been tighter. There were some missteps, no doubt, and some of the effects could have used some polish, but it was still a good nearly 13 hours of entertainment.

It was still good no doubt. Its still miles above all the other non-Netflix superhero shows. The whole Elektra/Stick/The Hand story just did not work for me and they overused the gore a bit. And I still find the resolution of the Punisher/Daredevil conflict in the last episode a bit problematic.

I got a little gored out myself. I was surprised that some reviews were commenting on the lack of gore with the Punisher kills. I don't think the series really suffered from a shortage of the crimson.

I'm guessing that since they know they are a success now, they can waste a bit of time with things that will pay off in the future.

I guess. Although thats something I really dont like when shows or comics do that. I still believe even in longform storytelling each arc should have its own beginning and end and not just be setup for whatever comes nect.

Cause as far as S2 is concerned Punisher was right. Matt killed the guy in the end out of revenge. We as the audience knew that Stick ultimately killed him but from Matts point of view it was him. And since there wasnt really any negative sideffects for him yet it defeats the whole point his character made for most of the season and all of S1. And I dont know how I should feel about that.

Two episodes left. The first four episodes were nearly perfect, but once Elektra showed up the whole thing became a mess. Once the Punisher got free again it picked up a lot, but there's still too many different plotlines that don't really seem to connect and I don't have much clue where anything is headed. The story may be bigger, but season was definitely a lot tighter.

If only the whole season was as good as the first four episodes. Maybe the last two will redeem it for me.
