And I don’t mean in a new season of The Defenders because, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix had just cancelled Marvel’s Daredevil. This is particularly odd because Season Three of the Charlie Cox-led series was arguably the strongest season yet though more than anything else it makes me really curious about how they determine […]
Marvel’s Daredevil, consistency-speaking, is probably the strongest of the Marvel series on Netflix. And according to the buzz generated around this upcoming season, it’s likely to continue the trend. Here’s the latest trailer… And the Screenphiles take…
I binged–a word I have every intention of continuing the use of–the second season of Marvel’s Iron Fist last week and it was…okay. It course-corrects from first season, which seemed to spend as much time with Joy and Ward Meechum (Jessica Stroup and Tom Pelphrey) as it did with Danny Rand/Iron Fist (Finn Jones). One […]
The Season Two trailer for Marvel’s Iron Fist dropped at San Diego Comic-Con and it’s…okay and manages to tell us relatively little about the upcoming season. And that’t okay because who wants any surprises spoiled this early (though Iron Fist had better wear a comic-accurate costume. At this point we need something to link these […]
Yesterday Netflix released a trailer for the second season of Luke Cage, one of the four series from Marvel Television and it looks…okay. Cage seems to have accepted a degree of notoriety in his life–which truth be told is unavoidable when you take into account everyone is running around with technology that makes them their […]
Footage from Donald Glover’s aborted take on Fox’s Deadpool was released a while ago, and it not only looks awesome and captures the feel of the movie–it’s gloriously and unrepentantly violent–but oddly enough feels more ‘Deadpool’ than Deadpool actually was. And I know this is simply an animation test, but it feels like Marvel Television […]
Marvel Television, unlike their stablemates at Marvel Studios are very hit and miss as far as translating their characters goes. So far–when they’ve dealt with ‘street-level’ characters like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Daredevil, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, they’ve been relatively successful. The problems arise when they try to tackle characters that exist is a more […]
While I don’t think that it’s disputable that Marvel on Netflix has upped the ante on superheroes on television immensely that’s not for a moment to imply that there aren’t problems. The biggest of which (in my eyes) is that no matter the series–Daredevil, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones or Luke Cage–they never seem to quite […]
Marvel’s The Punisher will premiere November 17, which we didn’t learn during Marvel Television’s presentation at the 2017 New York Comic-Con because if never actually happened. The panel for the latest Marvel Television/Netflix co-production was cancelled out of respect for those who were killed in Las Vegas (which makes sense considering the Punisher is particularly […]
There have been three movie incarnations of The Punisher since he was created by Gerry Conway and John Romita Sr. in 1974, and while a popular character in comics, his movies never quite seemed to connect with audiences. The first movie was in 1978, with Dolph Lundgren as Frank Castle/The Punisher. It was okay, though […]
