It really says something about a show when the most likeable character is the villain. Why does Netflix Marvel hire such bland actors?

No, they hired David Tennant on purpose. I don't see anything wrong with the characters or acting.
>>
>It really says something about a show when the most likeable character is the villain

It's what happens when Marvel occasionally casts someone who can actually act.

When everyone in the cast is average or below, you don't notice it as much as when one actor is obviously a standout.
>>
>>62905243
They call him David Teninch for a reason
>>
>>62905262
The acting isn't bad it's just boring, nobody is particularly charismatic or compelling. It was like Daredevil, save for Charlie Cox.

Jessica isn't so bad either, just the only person I really enjoy watching is Kilgrave.

I disagree, villians are just inherently interesting in general really. Pic related.

Although, i'm sure jessica jones is very bland acting and bad in general /pol- i mean /tv/ won't let me forget it

Tennant was great in the mini-series Secret Smile. He's excellent at being filthy as fuck when the need arises.

Oh shit I remember watching that when it aired and thinking it was quite good.

In pic related case though at least Elliot was more or less as likeable as Tyrell.
>>
>>62905202
I love how this show inverts the typical abusive relationship between Jessica and Kilgrave.
She's the strong and violent one and he's the manipulative one who uses people to get what he wants.
And people see him as the devil when he's emotionally manipulating people but praise her for fighting and beating everyone up all the time.
>>
>>62905359
It's okay, the whole storyline reads like a Lifetime movie on acid.

Jessica Jones is a fucking bitch.
God I hate her. I have been on this guy's side the whole time.

It's not like they see him as the devil only because he's a man. He does fucked up, terrible things. He's the villain.
>>
The only characters I liked in the show were Kilgrave and Cage.

The dude who played the drug addict is a fucking terrible actor.

Did you just watch the show or are you talking about the comics? Because I haven't seen the show, but in the comics, your description is spot-on.
>>
>>62905504
Just the show fãm.
>>
>>62905379

I'm pretty sure you're just talking about the show but Jessica Jones is a grade-A bitch in the comics, too. She shits all over Luke Cage, too, which is sad as all fuck because he's a little bit more fleshed-out and vulnerable in the comics. I liked him in the show but he was flat.

Kilgrave did nothing wrong.
>>
>>62905202

What's unusual about that? Villains are usually the most charismatic characters.
>>
>>62905504
>>62905529
Then what is the fucking point of this show?
We're just watching a damaged goods whore who happens to have superpowers that she doesn't deserve be a cunt for 13 straight hours only to see her come out on top in the end?
WHAT THE FUCK?
>>
>>62905504
She was far more competent and sympathetic in the show than in the comics - which still isn't a whole lot, honestly, but god it really shows how terrible Alias is when you compare it to the show.
>>
>>62905577

Think of it as a heroic tragedy with Kilgrave as the ill-fated hero. He was just trying to sail off into the sunset with the girl of his dreams, anon. But she was a bitch and everything went to hell.

It's pretty much an adaptation of Lolita. Patrician.

David Tennant has a certain Charisma to his acting style. He's not a superb actor but I'm always entertained when he's on screen.

If I was gay, I could see myself crushing hard

This desu senpai. I'm watching ep 7 but it's taken me like 3 hours to get halfway through it because I keep getting distracted by more interesting things. I want to finish because I'm this far in already, but 13 hours is too long when there's nothing going on.

A friend of mine is really sperging about this show, is it legitimately good? How does it compare to Daredevil for example?
>>
>>62908292

It's terrible and you should cut ties to your friend right now. The premise is okay if a little obnoxious on the "I WAS BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY RAPED BY YOU" as actual quote PTSD bullshit drama.The only interesting character is the villain, and he's the only one with an interesting, useful power. The other "super-heroes" are just strong people that are hard to kill when convenient.

The plot feels like it was stretched from 5 episodes to 15 or whatever it actually has. Over and over again the protagonist fucks up and let the villain escape, seriously, it happens like 10 times throughout the series in the most ridiculous manners.

Jessica Jones doesn't look like a super person. While Luke Cage is a giant and buff as hell dude, she's just some frumpy chick with a weird nose and droopy eyes that happens to have super strength.
>>
Kilgrave did nothing wrong.
>>
>>62905797
At least get to episode 8, anon.

Daredevil is far better but Jessica Jones is worth it for the villain alone.

>Kilgrave loves Jessica so much it gives you diabetes watching it
>Kilgrave almost went full REDEMPTION
>Jessica immediately shuts down any possibility Kilgrave could become a relatively good guy after she knocks him out for the second time and kidnaps him again
Seriously, after a while of working together Jessica could have began to at least like him, and if Kilgrave learned how to be "good" then it could have worked despite the fucked up past. It could have been amazing character development for both of them, or maybe I'm shipping too hard.
>>
>>62909368
Capeshit is the cancer which is keeping the cinema industry afloat, yet people are already getting tired of the oversaturation of either those or fucking remakes. There's barely any original content anymore.
>>
>>62909410
It wouldn't have work desu. He was so in love/obsessed with her and possessive. He killed her neighbor for it. It was nice seeing her trying to make him 'good' but deep down he'll never change. His character has already done a lot of shit. All he really wanted was to keep her with him, you coukd see how happy he got in the end.

>Jessica could have began to at least like him

I bet there were maybe a couple of minutes or seconds she enjoyed herself with him in those 8 months.
>>
>>62909623
>I bet there were maybe a couple of minutes or seconds she enjoyed herself with him in those 8 months.
That reminds me. What was up with Kilgrave and Jessica remembering two different versions of the same event? Did Kilgrave actually kiss her or was that in his head?

Also, probably, if I was taken out to nice restaurants every single night and lived in a penthouse in the middle of a city I think I would enjoy myself just a little bit. Especially with a guy who looks like Tennant. No homo tho.
>>
>>62909286
Tennant is a good actor.
Ten is just all over the place.
>>
>>62909714
In his head, he refused call it abuse to all the things he did to her. Kilgrave believe that all he did was what she wanted and what they had was real love.
