“He is an asshole but at the end of the day he’s on our side of the war.” –Stick Probably safe to assume that Elektra is not following in Daredevil’s footsteps of as far stopping her murderous ways go (Yes’ she’s sticking her sai in that ninja’s eye). We learn that Stick is not only responsible […]
For awhile, despite my serious love for everything that was unfolding in Daredevil, I was wondering how they were going to manage to embrace the more fantastical aspects of the Marvel Universe. In the world that exists in Marvel Televised Universe, the heroes are much more grounded than they are in its cinematic brethren so […]
Holy Shit! Forgive the language but this episode goes places that are more awesome than I have the capability to describe (that’s not strictly true, though I’m still following Tony Stark’s adage about not being a dick–not a total dick, anyway because who’s a total dick?). Which is cool because that pretty much ensures that there […]
Daredevil not wanting to kill, I get, though problems start when you pair him with people with no such qualms. This means that he oftentimes gets in his or their way, endangering everyone. It happened with Frank Castle, and it happens again this episode, that is till a mysterious figure from his past–by way of the […]
We’re just beyond the half way mark in the Second Season of Marvel’s Daredevil, and the questions are coming fast and furious. What does District Attorney Reyes (Michelle Hurd) know about the Punisher that’s she not only willing to destroy Nelson And Murdock, but put her own reputation on the line for? What does he know, or […]
Elektra KICKS ASS. And what’s particularly interesting is that in the fight with the Yakuza, you see one of the assassins hop on a counter to watch. This is a sign of good writing because what it shows is arrogance on the part of the assassins without anyone having to come out and say it. What’s […]
“There was always this glorious darkness inside of you.” –Elektra Nachios Elektra (Elodie Yung) has re-entered Matt’s life, and he’s not particularly glad to see her (which is understandable considering how they parted. Besides, she also is a bit nuts. It’s an interesting take on the character, in that she doesn’t appear particularly noble–like in the comics–more […]
I moved my Marvel’s Daredevil Season Two discussions from ‘Reviews’ to ‘My Two Cents’ because–as opposed to an actual review–I tend to discuss interesting points about the episode. Besides, to write an actual review mens that I would have to commit to a spoiler or two, which I have no intention of doing because, as Tony Stark […]
“Why didn’t you take off my mask?” –Daredevil “I don’t give a shit who you are.” –Frank Castle, aka the Punisher Those aren’t the words that begin the third episode of Daredevil’s Second season, though they might as well be because if there’s one thing that makes Frank Castle the most dangerous opponent Daredevil has ever […]
“Even has a code name.” “Like what? Kill-dozer? Or ‘dumbass with a gun?’” “Not quite. They’re calling this one ‘The Punisher.’” Or “Hold on. Sure I can’t get you anything else? You know, I’ve got it all, man. Yeah, bondage, backdoor, grannies, or maybe you’re in the market for something younger. She’s barely 12. Guaranteed.” […]
