Why do people think this show is good? Marvel's Netflix division is really obsessed with The Wire and seems to hate the entire idea of superheroes. It's like a cargo cult version of an HBO show with Superhero names slapped on as an afterthought. It's dreary and boring, and I highly doubt anyone would give it a second thought if it didn't have the name slapped on it.

How is this damage control, exactly? I'm asking a question.

The show is thoroughly unremarkable and sort of crap. Is it one of those "collective viewing experience" things that makes people love Breaking Bad and Walking Dead so much?

Nah, Snyder likes it when they punch things and wants to seem smart in front of other people. If you want to see true contempt for source material, watch Arrow S3/4.

>Marvel's Netflix division is really obsessed with The Wire and seems to hate the entire idea of superheroes.

I don't ever throw out terms like DCuck. In fact, I never have because it doesn't sound clever when you say it out loud. But you're one of them. Just because DC is serious business, doesn't mean that's why it's bad. Netflix managed to make a cohesive series that was fun but serious because the story and the characters required it.

I dunno what you're talking about OP, but I loved it. The atmosphere, the writing, the fights, the acting and the sets were all great.

I personally didn't like it much. Karen is an annoying idiot, most of the conflict in season 2 is based on people not talking about things that they have no reason not to talk about, the Blacksmith reveal was really fucking dumb, and Matt's faux-philosophical ramblings about morality and "his city" got more annoying as the show progressed.

Also, whoever designed the costume literally gave him a down syndrome mask.

As someone who liked Daredevil, JJ was promising, but run out of ideas soon. Everything that happens past episode 6 is a rehash of the first episodes.

It's actually the showrunner's fault, she clearly doesn't have an eye for action, and she lacks creativity as evidenced by Dexter.

>Matt's faux-philosophical ramblings about morality and "his city" got more annoying as the show progressed

Jesus christ, this. If felt so forced and childish, and clashed with the whole aesthetic they were trying to build.

Like, there are all these things the show is trying to pull from other shows and wrap itself up in, but it all comes across as really forced and unnatural, like a kid wearing their dad's clothes. They want to be taken seriously so bad. It's not so bad it's embarassing, but it's just bland.
>>
There isn't a single scene in BvS that's as engaging as the rooftop talk between DD and Frank. Not a single quip in that one. At least one of them is in costume. They talk for more than 5 lines.
Snyder is just a tone-deaf faggot that shouldn't be making superhero movies.

That's not true. Everybody that was going to watch it marathonned it first thing. It's the same reason nobody talks about JJ anymore.

They're only obsessed with The Wire in so far as it's a prestigious show and they like to draw comparisons to it in order to drum up buzz.

That's deliberate. They're the rationalisations of a junkie trying to justify his addiction.

I remember David Simon saying that HBO execs realized it was a good show all along and assured him it would stay on even with the subpar ratings. They definitely didn't write any of the earlier seasons as a possible ending point for the show, in case they were canceled.

What the fuck are you even talking about? You asked the "contrarians" to justify why they didn't like the show, and I had already outlined some of the reasons I didn't like the show. Do you expect citations and timestamps for every time the show did something retarded?

I'm not even saying the show is objectively shitty. I'm just saying *I* specifically didn't like it, for reasons that I understand other people might not care about as much, and that I outlined pretty clearly earlier. You're the one assuming that I must hate it because ANYONE who hates it must just hate it because it's popular.

>Marvel's Netflix division is really obsessed with The Wire and seems to hate the entire idea of superheroes.
Nah, you're confused. It's the Jessica Jones crew that seem to not be comfortable with it. And I know that she's not a superhero, but she WAS, which was part of her point, but they instead made stupid references to her flying, instead of her actually, you know, being able to do it, made stupid comments about Kilgrave and the color purple, instead of him actually being purple, and had Patsy make the costume, and make it shitty, and have Jessica make fun of it for being shitty, rather than actually ever wear it.

Daredevil had a slow build to a final episode of him in full costume, and did the Same thing for Punisher, and were overall pretty true to the level of "superhero" action you'd expect in a story of an acrobatic fighter with no real physical powers.
>>
>>81896122
Not him, but my main problem with DD fights is how overly spinny and complicated they are. There are multiple times throughtout the series were Daredevil has a guy lying on the floor in front of him, and he decides to do a spinning sideflip kick to finish the guy off, that leaves him lying on the floor as well. Instead of just curbstomping him.

The choreography is smooth, but when it's got someone who's supposed to have martial arts training against someone (or multiple someones) without, it feels fake given how unpragmatically the martial artist is fighting. He should be fighting to win, not fighting to look nice.

For the love of god, do not fall into a "No, you!" loop. You both already look retarded enough.

Fair enough. I honestly don't pay much attention to the fight scenes, my other main complaint about DD's is that they feel like they go on too long, especially when he's supposed to be fighting someone who is obviously not as good as he is. I do think that was less of a problem in season 2.

The main reasons I dislike shows tend to be plot and writing related, though, not choreographic.
>>
>>81893974
Does it count as bad choreography if the characters suck at fighting? Well, Jessica at least. The woman gets by on the fact that she's got superhuman strength, and nobody else does. Luke, on the other hand, just tanks everything and THEN uses his super strength.
Here's the thing about Jessica, even in the books, she's a failure of a superhero. Christ, she outright admitted at one point "I CAN fly... [but] I suck at it".

It's honestly the best capeshow out there. It has good action, fits the gritty film noir style DD is known for, has good drama and the first season had a great fucking villain.

It's rather dark but I don't think dreary is a term id ever use to describe it. The people despite all the horrors around them still take joy in aspects of their lives and try to be good to one another (cept matt in season 2. he is just tumbling off the rails the whole time).

Marvel isn't allowed to have good things. Not in the eyes of certain fanboys anyway.

After the BvS fiasco and looming concerns about skwad the only real recourse is to say that all cape is shit rather than admit the "competition" did anything right. This, of course, won't stop them from defending the "sophisticated and serious tone" of Snyder's trainwreck films while bashing Marvel's Netflix shows. Nor will it stop them from praising the CW's "fun" approach to capes while bashing the MCU for also making something that manages to be entertaining.

It's the impossible double standard. If they can't have the best thing, no one can.

Not her, the show. The fact that a show thats suppose to be about a female superhero is all about her being raped defeats the purpose of trying to make men and women superheros seem equally interesting. Its a not a show about a superhero, its a show about a rape victim with superpowers. Imagine if someone wanted to show their daugter a tv show about a girl superhero, give her a role model on par with Cap or Tony, and all they got was Moody McSulky. Should of just made the show about Luke Cage and have Jessica as a side character instead of the other way around.

Yeah this. I'm glad you guys posted this because I was beginning to think it was just me. His anxiety attacks are also brought on from coming close to death in Avengers which is such a realistic reaction and is what I went through too. Superheroes are supposed to be immune to that.

I think maybe if I was in a different place I would find it cathartic though. That's why I excuse characters overcoming it so quickly. It's impossible to have catharsis when you're reliving some fucked up shit or anxiety though.
>>
>>81898676
>Its a not a show about a superhero, its a show about a rape victim with superpowers.
well yeah. It's based on Jessica jones. What the fuck did you expect a super hero show? It never professed to be one or attempted to be one and its kinda silly to give it shit because it isn't one.
> Imagine if someone wanted to show their daugter a tv show about a girl superhero, give her a role model on par with Cap or Tony, and all they got was Moody McSulky.
Well I would suggest they show them supergirl instead of a show designed for mature audiences that isn't about a fucking super hero.
>Should of just made the show about Luke Cage and have Jessica as a side character instead of the other way around.
Or...OR instead, we just have JJ be a show about her in the style it was intended to be. And then have people watch the Luke Cage show later this year if they want to watch that.

Like what i'm hearing is 'i don't like that this show is the way it is because it isn't personally something I am interested in...therefore it should not exist.'

Which people hillarious complain about because not enough frank. Which blows my mind. Complaining because a season of Daredevil based on the comic book 'Daredevil' had 'too much ninjas' and 'not enough punisher'.

People need to fuck off and watch that tom jane garbage movie and stop pretending they got business watching Daredevil when they don't know jack shit about daredevil.

'UGH I was enjoying batman when he fought mobsters but now hes fighting crazy guys in silly costumes all the time and theres not enough Red Hood in season 2."

Thats the point ya dillweed. They picked a story about a rape victim, not a superhero. It has a right to exist i just think if the intended goal was having a strong female lead they could of picked a myriad of girl superheros rather than just focus on the one whose biggest story was being raped. Its obviously not as well recived as Daredevil and i personally think a show about White Tiger or Valkyrie would of been better for a female audience that has been begging for a story with a girl superhero lead. It wasnt terrible. It was just very preachy and heavy handed. I enjoy it more than my gf (who really hates how much it panders), if that means anything.

Do you really need brand fanboys when you're winning though?

Fanboyism is driven by insecurity and when Marvel's cinematic and TV offerings seem to range from mediocre to fantastic there's not a whole lotta room for insecurity or the need for anyone to defend a brand that seems pretty much able to take care of itself.

Notice how there aren't really any outspoken hardcore Marvel loyalists anymore? SURE, you tell yourself that there are and accuse anyone who claims anything DC related isn't good of being one (because who other than a Marvelcuck could find a poorly done movie disagreeable amirite?), but there really aren't any, there doesn't need to be. The current definition of a Marvel fanboy according to /co/ntrarians is anyone who didn't like BvS.

>>81899820
Maybe the show just isn't for you, which is perfectly fine. I just really get tired of this millennial attitude of "If I personally don't like it then that means it's objectively garbage and everyone should recognize that as a fact" I realize saying that is laying a lot on you as a poster, but it's the tone of this thread in general.

It's the same as if I said 'my feminist teacher hates Supergirl for being to preachy' or 'my black best friend hate Sam Captain America for being pandering.'

You're just bringing up the opinions of nebulously real people to support your argument.

Well, I think it's good. And it is a superheroes show. It's just they don't just do superhero stuff and deal with dramatic arcs, which makes them human.

Are you, maybe, implying that comics about not costumed action with silly and cheesy dialogue and bizarre plot and villains are just not worth the superhero classified, or something? Or even bad?

What's that even mean? How detatched from reality are you? By that rational I would just tell you I'm also a girl, and that I was raped and have "ptsd" and dont enjoy the show, but I'm a white guy who just wanted to his gf as an example to convey that I don't hate the show as much as you think, I just think that theyd been better off making a show that was actaully about superheroes. Just because I would rather see an actual chick superhero doesnt mean I think the show shouldn't exist or that there are not parts of the show I genuinely enjoy. I just dont deny that the show was essentially a 3rd wave feminist fanwank, and that it is only enjoyable once you get past that.

One gripe I had, other than Matt being a prick in the last half and sabotaging his own life, was the ninja fights.
Not that he was fighting ninjas but that a lot of the fights were shot in low light. How am in supposed to tell the one guy kung fu fighting in darkness from the other half dozen guys? Especially when most of the fights involve teaming up with Elecktra causing either a split focus for the viewer or multiple changing perspectives.
Or maybe I'm a dumbass and should pay better attention.

If S2 hadn't involved immortal, mystical ninjas your argument might have had weight. But then again, even S1 had Nobu in bright red Hand attire and Fisk being as hammy as fuck in every scene.
