Nuke is the hero we deserve and need.
Is he redpilled?
the pills make much more sense in this than they do in comics
good job
>>77643465
A twink is not what I think of when I think of nuke.
So who wants to bet an old black guy dies in Luke Cage?
>>77643609
I don't think you know what that word means.
Is he a cyborg?
>>77643586
The pills in the comics are exactly the same. Res brings him up, blue brings him down, and white keeps him docile between missions
>>77643465
How many people would have been saved if Jessica let him shoot Killgrave during the dart mission?
>>77643644
A very young looking slightly effeminate kid, generally in fag porn. Like in the ops picture.
>>77643657
They're also placebos, though.
>>77643657
he said the whites are to keep him going. to me that implies he takes a red to come up, and pops whites to keep the buzz until its time to come down
>>77643698
That was a retcon. There's no reason to believe it's that way in the show, especially sincePatsy took a red and it increased her adrenaline and caused her to go into cardiac arrest.
>>77643683
...Are you blind, son?
>>77643731
I was speaking specifically on the comics. I was defending anon's position that it makes sense since the pills actually do something in the show, whereas Nuke only thinks they do something to him, when in reality he's just an asshole.
>>77643742
Are you? He looks like a fucking twink. Nuke is generally depicted as being a hulk of mass and slightly overweight. Dude in ops picture looks like the lead in a rom flick.
>>77643698
Ehh I never liked that retcon. Why go to all that trouble conditioning Nuke with fake pills when you could condition him with a trigger phrase or something?
>>77643770
Maybe you should look at something other than a headshot in baggy clothing before making a judgement. Simpson is well above 6 feet tall and pretty damn muscular.
>>77643682
He does shoot him during the dart mission.
>>77643465
is it me or does he look a lot like chris evans?
>>77643768
Ah, sorry, my mistake.
>>77643836
That was probably intentional.
>>77643836
I'm thinking it' intentional.
Why did they change his name from Frank to Will? Did they want to avoid confusion with the other Frank we will be seeing in Daredevil season two?
>>77643609
>BETTER LOOK EXACTLY LIKE THE COMIC RATHER THAN GETTING A GOOD ACTOR
die
I am really, really hoping we get to see a Nuke/Punisher face-off in Defenders.
Have they ever interacted in the comics? I'm unfamiliar with Nuke, but I would love to see some Frank on Frank violence.
>>77643927
He's mostly been a Daredevil/Captain America villain, until Morrison retconned him into being part of Weapon Plus which was stupid.
>>77643974
A Nuke/Frank confrontation seems inevitable in the comics though, because they are both 'nam veterans.
>>77643836
>Has the exact same haircut
>Similar facial structures
>A fan of leather jackets
>Basically Vietnam Captain America
COULD IT BE INTENTIONAL
Why'd he shoot that black cop? Did he just know he was retiring soon?
>>77644070
It's like pottery
>>77644152
"____ from retirement" is the biggest death flag in action movie history, he was doomed the moment they mentioned his pension.
>>The hook for season 2 is another evil organization that does shady things.
Oh come the fuck on!
>>77644183
Have there EVER been a cop in fiction who actually got retired?
>>77643974
How was that stupid? Him being apart of the Weapon Plus program makes sense.
>>77644196
To be fair every major population center in Marvel has half a dozen secret societies and a good 2/3rds of corporations do super science. They have reached the point where no one even reacts to AIM beekeepers walking down the street, they are basically the cable guy at this point.
>>77644289
I feel there was a parody movie that did it.
>>77644196
>>77644307
I bet you they tie it into Hydra.
>>77643836
My head canon is he's a big cap fan and modeled himself after him.
>>77644327
They need to bring in A.I.M, stuff like alien tech, super chemicals and people like kilgrave can be used to justify the yellow suits.
>>77643836
like thats the point? he's a dark, Reagan era Cap.
>>77643560
He is the most redpilled character in history.
>>77644386
That's basically canon, at least going by the cawmics.
>>77644482
He is, it is a ongoing plot point with him (and Punisher) that they are huge Captain America fans and that fact makes him EXTREMELY uncomfortable.
>>77644196
and everyone with superpoer related problems calling Jessica.
This can set up things like the Mattie plot and other stuff like that
>>77643629
We didn't really have time to get to know Clemons but god his death got me.
>>77643836
I immediately thought of a wannabe Cap when they first showed him out of uniform.
>>77644289
Murtaugh technically did in Lethal Weapon 3.
But then he decided to go back to work.
>>77643649
Maybe. He seemed to have a stutter going on.
>>77643560
Like, literally.
>>77643465
Nuke used to be a big guy.

The supporting cast in this show sucks except for Luke.
why is his face like that
Whoa whoa whoa, wait a second fucking Nuke is in the show? How the hell do they do him? Nuke was one of my favorite parts of born-again, I was not expecting him to show up in this show. I'm a little worried now.
>>77644289
>>77644310
Frank Drebin in between Naked Gun 2 and 3
>>77643560
Red, White, and Blue Pilled.
>>77644289
Detective Somerset maybe retired,
>>77645356
He's a cop who used to be spec-ops. He gets beat up by Jessica, he bones Patsy Walker and gets talked down all the time by the both of them.
>>77645407
>Pilled
>Take all three and mash them together into a fine powder
Light purple?
>>77644327
Nope
the group IGH got me thinking of what they could do with that,
then i occured to me genetic manipulations, experiments that made specials or basically EVOLVE
IGH grouo
H...IGH
High evolutionary confirmed for S2
>>77643465
He was really shoe horned into this with pills outta no where.
>>77643560
>>77645491
Yes. That sounds about right.
>>77645520
It's cause they got 4 episodes in and were like man this is terrible how can we make people get excited?
Let's add another super villain.
>>77645614
God this show is dragging. I just finished episode 11.
I loved the noir theme of the early episodes but this show really lost its way near the end.
Here have Nuke for reasons.
Why is he named Nuke? I'd have expected some sort of pill themed moniker.
>>77645650
Yeah overall it was decent because of Nuke and Killgrave but I don't see them renewing it for another season.
Which is probably for the best.
>>77643465
>We'll never get this scene
>>77645663
The Pillverizer?
>>77646458
>we go to war for peace
Who writes this crap? Not even Gruenwald was this retarded.
>>77646754
The war Cap fought in was WWII.
>>77646799
Someone tell him that times have changed. He's making a fool of himself.
>>77643649
No, just pills
>>77645270
>superhero
nope
>>77643770
>He looks like a fucking twink
>looks like the lead in a rom flick.
Those are two very different looks. Twinks are usually younger, or at least very young looking. Like 18-22. This guy is clearly in his 30s.
>>77646862
You're absolutely right, he should tell the guy with a gattling gun pointed at him that he's completely justified in his beliefs and allow him to blow several holes into him.
>>77645476
Largely because he's an insane asshole
>>77646901
>Nuke
>daring to shoot the flag
You're now realizing that Nuke was haphazardly thrown into the story to represent the "boyfriend who keeps crawling back and asking for forgiveness after violent mood swings" kind of abuse.
That's all this show is. An attempt to shoehorn every kind of abuse the writers could think of.
Manipulative ex-boyfriend abuse
Drug abuse
Alcohol abuse
Parental abuse
Sibling abuse
Abuse toward parents
So much abuse shoved in, the characters should form a support group.
Oh wait...
>>77646880
the only reason he isn't is because the writers say he isn't. from a plot stand point hes the only one that was trying to be proactive about what was going on
he was an anti-hero at worst
>>77644183
well that and the fact it was Lester in a minuscule role. You just knew that nigga was dead. Frankly I was expecting him to die at the police precinct when Jessica tried to get herself sent to supermax
>>77646458
I want Loyal to nothing, except the dream
Miller wrote one of the best caps of the 80s and that dude was like in an issue
>>77645680
it's being raved everywhere. fucking Forbes called it the best thing in television and it's got five stars at Netflix, it's basically guaranteed to be fast tracked season two
>>77647273
it's almost like the show has a main theme its plot and subplots all contribute to. Why, I've never heard of such a thing.
>>77647422the secret netflix doesnt want you to know is everything auto gets 3 seasons
>>77646458
>Nuke was created by Frank Miller as satire
>Nuke is now how Frank Miller unironically sees the world
IT'S LIKE POTTERY
>>77647273
you forget jacket subtraction abuse
>>77647461
Right, because all scripts should be written based off a checklist, remolding characters to force them to adhere to the same theme.
Every time a new cliche abuse appeared, it felt like a film student's attempt to make a statement.
>>77643465
not my Nuke
I have good news for you anons, though.
The comic book version will be retconed soon to match the TV version
>>77645270
Luke was okay. I dont get why everyone was making him out as the best thing ever.
>>77646458
No but we'll get the scenes in Born Again maybe, which are so much better. Nuke shouldn't even fight Cap.
>>77647773
>Nuke will be a pretty blond instead of a sack of muscles
Never before had the MU suffered such a slow, painful death.
>>77647461
I see it
>>77647726
Are you saying that one should not keep in mind the overall tone and theme of a narrative when writing its characters?
Are you really saying this?
>>77647773
Kind of hard to do that since Nuke nuked himself.
>>77647524
God, House of Cards went to shit.
>>77647273
I feel bad for people who can only view fiction like this
>mfw Carrie-Anne Moss' character never got to take a red pill
>>77648642
I too hate TV Tropes
>>77647273
wow great post, so clever
you really opened my eyes
I liked the part you made a list
your sarcasm at the end was SO FUNNEH XD
you should apply to write for cracked
>>77647726
Good grief you are dumber than dogshit.
>>77647726
You're on the internet too much, son. It has convoluted your reasoning.
>>77643465
In this show he sure was.
So, I totally thought his name was just a throwaway reference. I was convinced that they wouldn't do Nuke. As soon as he "joined the team" to help I started calling him "Officer Deathflag". Then he became the sole goddamn voice of reason until he went off the deep end. Seriously, dozens of lives would have been saved at the cost of a suicidal teenage girl having to spend 20 years in prison, which sucks ass, but she died anyway so became moot. Simpson became the new Rightclops.
>>77644196
I think this could be leading to Defenders. We know Jessica might have gotten her powers from them, Luke Cage's origin seems like it might be slightly different and considering the stick that Killgrave got was intended for him, it looks like the experiment he went through to get his powers might be from the same group. Maybe the truck carrying the chemicals that gave Matt Murdock his powers will tie into it too? This could be the arc that ties all the shows together.
I hope he appears in Daredevil season two exactly like he did in his first appearance, now a fully formed, insane tool of the military.
>>77643465
Nuke is in jessica jones?neat
when are they gonna go after the real monster?
The guy who just drives around in trucks filled with dangerous chemicals who keeps getting into accidents
>>77652742
It's possible seeing as the Punisher is going to be in S2.
>>77652931
I think that's most likely why they changed Nuke's name, they didn't want to confuse anybody with multiple Franks.
>>77652923
To be fair it was Jessica's dad's fault in her situation.
>>77652923
and it probably is this one poor sap, every job he has ever had some accident occurs, someone gets powers, he gets let go, finds new job accident and someone gets powers again he just goes through history being involved in accidents that cause super powers for his whole life.
>>77644289
Morgan Freeman in Seven
>>77652923
>when are they gonna go after the real monster?
You mean the guy who makes all the doorknobs and padlocks? Clearly he made Jessica what she is just so he could keep himself in business.
>>77652631
this is what I was thinking, since the last two episodes Patsy was pushing the company files pretty hard. I just wonder if it's going to be the same company that Luke is going to run into in his show, since he got his dead wifes files of experiments.
The other option is that all those things get settled in Cage's own show and Defenders is something else
>>77643731
they're REALLY POWERFUL placebos
I want him to dress as Scourge.
>>77647773
He has a different first name, so I suppose.
>>77646458
>then that gook reporter enraged Nuke again
Bitch.
>>77643770
>that jawline
>eligible as a twink
Pick only one.
>>77646458
I felt really bad for Nuke, he was just a puppet. Remender has a habit of just killing off characters for shock, but his death felt like it had an impact
>>77647974
No Iron Nail nuked him
>>77645491
FREEDOM
>>77643698
To be fair, we don't know that they're not in the show either. I mean, its a long stretch, but just because Trish took one and got all amped up, doesn't mean it ACTUALLY did anything. She could just be wrapped up in the mind set that she's in a world of super powered beings and was so convinced that the pill did something that, in her mind, it absolutely did.
>>77643836
That's because he is his son Nomad you scum
>>77653910Played by Stan Lee
>>77643883
I thought the same thing. I thought the same thing. Pretty sure its by design, since, essentially, Nuke is the nega-Captain America.
>>77643885
Maybe to make the reveal that he's Nuke a bigger surprise when it finally happens?
What if they built up Nuke here for their Born Again adaptation?
>>77643465
>characters who were right the whole time and did nothing wrong: the thread
>>77661270
To the point she went into cardiac arrest?
When is the Red Ranger getting his powers?
>>77665399
When the white ranger comes back from the dead.
>>77666155
Which ranger is going to be in Luke Cage?
>>77647974
Nuke re-appeared later in death of Wolverine event.
>>77644327
This is what I'm wondering. SHIELD tied in the shady ATCU as being Hydra, so basically everything shady is Hydra.
>IGH
>It's Good Hydra
>>77645520
shoehorned?
Him being unstable and being part of some shady spec ops shit was there from the start
>>77666199
The Black Ranger, of course.
