Sources For Daredevil’s (2015) New Suit

I have learned reading various blogs that most people love Netflix’s interpretation of Daredevil, though they aren’t too crazy about the fact that his suit isn’t closer to the one that appears in the comics. And that’s perfectly valid, though think about it for a moment:  If the Netflix series was aiming for anything, it was realism.  Sure, a heightened realism, […]

Daredevil Hallway Fight Scene

When I saw the Daredevil hallway fight scene–from the Netflix series not the 2003 movie–I was amazed at how fluid the action was, though once I got over my shock, I realized that I have seen it, in a sense, before. Here’s the fight scene from Oldboy, which also takes place in a corridor.   […]

Daredevil Opening Credit Sequence

At this point you’d probably think that I’ve had a enough of Marvel’s Daredevil after my marathon session ended sometime around midnight yesterday. Well, you’d be wrong!  I’ve already started re-watching it, though this time I think I’l do so in a slightly more leisurely fashion, with an emphasis on tracking down any Easter eggs […]

Daredevil (2015) Ep. 13: Daredevil

Red costume, red costume, red costume.  Did I mention that I REALLY want to see the red costume?  Curse you, DeKnight!  Curse you!  And the worse thing is, I have already partially seen it–Curse you, Internet!  Curse you to Hell!–but I can tell that they don’t do it justice. I thought that I should mention […]

Daredevil (2015) Ep. 11: The Path of the Righteous

In an attempt by an unseen enemy to get to Fisk, Vanessa Marianna (Ayelet Zurer) is injured. And it’s finally sinking into Murdock’s thick skull that he needs armor.  This is the second episode that mentions it, so–considering that there are only two remaining in the first season–it’s highly likely that he’s either getting it in episode 12 or […]

Daredevil (2015) Ep. 10: Nelson v. Murdock

Barely escaping Wilson Fisk with his life, the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen is discovered by Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson), as is his secret identity as Matt Murdock! It goes without saying that Foggy is a bit pissed because he believes that everything he knows about Matt–who he’s known since college–is a lie. While Madame Gao […]

Daredevil (2015) Ep. 9: Speak of the Devil

A red ninja!  It appears that Nobu (Peter Shinkoda) is becoming impatient with Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio), so Fisk offers him a deal:  Get rid of the Devil that stalks Hell’s Kitchen, and he’ll get him what he wants. Which is a particular tenement, reasons unknown (though there may be a connection to Black Sky, whatever […]

Daredevil (2015) Ep. 7: Stick

This episode we meet Stick (Scott Glenn) in flashback–he’s the man who taught Matt Murdock/Daredevil his formidable fighting skills–and in the modern day.  He’s in New York to attempt to enlist Matt’s aid in stopping Nobu (Peter Shinkoda), the right hand of Madame Gao (Wai Ching Ho) from bringing a mysterious shipment, known only as Black Sky, into […]
