Because it's a shitty terrible show. Great casting wasted on mediocre writing.

Obsession.

Because he's not evil for the purpose of being evil. He's just living happily at the expense of everyone else.

Because he has been to the future and knows what is coming.

It's a stupid show, he is "in love" with an insufferable SJW cunt, even after she was BLACKED. More far fetched than the superpowers.

A lot of that going around but Gotham might be the worst offender right now. A lot of great actors in that, but the plot and writing is not at the same level as the talent.
>>
>>63138447

He's insane.
>>
think about the character's background

he was a kid that got his super powers after his scientist parents saved his life

ever since he's just known how to get his way
>>
>>63138447
He was just like that in the comics
did petty shit in hell's kitchen all the time instead of manipulating politicians or billionares
but then again, his powers wouldn't work with anyone beyond street level in the marvel universe.
>>
What would you do with his powers right now? I would
>get some drugs
>find a celeb waifu to sleep with
>take somebodies mansion
>kill people I hate

I don't think I would care about the actual potential of my powers, I would have fun.

I stopped watching around episode 3 or 4 when she was at Kilgraves house with the cop. The cop was knocked out and had his gun sitting right by her feet. She could have easily picked it up and killed him. Instead she stares at him, waits until the cop gets up again. Fucking stupid. Also why does no one carry guns? She went through all this trouble to get this anaesthetic instead of buying a rifle. Fucking stupid shit.

He's male white privilege. He's about control and the only thing that has escaped his control, a woman, becomes his obsession because by his train of thought this breaks his patriarchic rule.

I'd do exactly what he does. Get free shit and fuck hot bitches (Ritter not being one of these hot bitches ofc).
>>
>>63142420
I'm too beta to do anything major like kill or rape. I'd probably steal enough money to live comfortably in upper middle class and not have to work. I would steal from multiple sources or from one that wouldn't be financially ruined by my actions. Then again I may pussy out since I'm a lapsed Catholic always at the very edge of wanting to go back to it.

Not having money really fucks you over in life and it shits up all your family ties when they're in need constantly.
>>
>>63142612
They need him alive to get that blonde chick out of jail.
>>
I still don't understand why killing someone suddenly made her immune to his power
>>
>>63142612
Thats even worse.

So they are letting this maniac live and potentially harm other people (which he has been doing I might add) just to save some chick who's life is already ruined anyway.

Thats real retarded sir

>>
>>63142785
>I still don't understand why killing someone suddenly made her immune to his power

I don't think it did, she heals fast and it turns out he puts out a virus. she likely built up a resistance to his virus being super powered herself.
>>
>>63142785
Because the story needed it. It's not even because she's "gifted" either, because Luke couldn't resist it.

It's a load of shit. When they started explaining his power everything went bad. It's a virus, but for some reason he can control people over the communications system? Jessica just becomes magically immune to it?

The build up was fine and I really enjoyed it up until episodes 8 or 9, then the story just felt like it was being pushed towards the direction where Kilgrave dies, even if none of it made sense.
>>
>>63142869
Okay, explain a few more things for me.

Explain why he can control people over the communications system in the hospital.

Explain why Trish decided to tap the bullet on the side of her head instead of ramming it through her eye. Is it because she's a main character?

Explain why the police decided to stop shooting at Jessica in the final episode just so she had enough time to escape instead of killing her like Kilgrave told them too.

Explain why Kilgrave didn't tell Trish to kill herself if Jessica did anything to him like he had been doing the entire god damn series but decided not to right at the end even though he was skeptical the entire time.

Tell me why Jessica gets to walk out of a police station even though she is charged with murder.
>>
Because his powers are contained within the restrictions of the writing.

I've never watched this and know nothing about it but what I've been told from my brother, but if he has the power to command people to do whatever he wants without question he has the ability to control everything. There's no story to that though, because he would just win and nobody would stand a chance. So they write his goals and decisions to be stupid and counter intuitive to keep things in check.

In other words, it's shit.
>>
>>63142941
You're wrong and your brother is an idiot.

He can only control people for at most 12 hours. The effect wears off. He'd have to be in constant contact to change anything huge, whilst it's possible, it would be hard to actually pull off.

Additionally, he's not strong/invincible like other superheros, he can actually be killed. Just like any other human. Wear headphones and bam, you're immune.

>Explain why he can control people over the communications system in the hospital.

People keep mentioning this but I just assumed he visited them irl earlier and told them to do whatever he said, even on the phone.

The rest of them don't make sense though, just lazy plot convenience.
>>
>>63142940
>Okay, explain a few more things for me.
Not a /co/ expert or anything but my guess is...

>Explain why he can control people over the communications system in the hospital.

Computer virus. kidding. This one made no sense, him practicing in a giant hall after getting supped up by Dr. Mengele made some sense, cause he is essentially just increasing the range of what he can do already. Through the Hospital PA system though? I can see if they had a scene where he was right near the hospital ventilation system, not through the fucking PA though

>Explain why Trish decided to tap the bullet on the side of her head instead of ramming it through her eye. Is it because she's a main character?
The people he tells to do things don't always pick the best way to do it. Case in point, the people he told to kill each other at the end. Not one of them looked seriously injured by the time he said 'Stop", Given time I bet she would have gone for the ear or eye, but she was stopped too soon. The very first thing she did was try to shoot a bullet in her head, when she was out of bullets she panicked, looked for a bullet and needed that bullet in her head right then, not in 5 minutes, right at that moment. So crazed she didn't even think to reload the gun or just put it in her mouth.

>Tell me why Jessica gets to walk out of a police station even though she is charged with murder.
That was in the scene itself. watch it again, it's explained.
>>
>>63143333
>That was in the scene itself. watch it again, it's explained.

I mean at the end, she was being charged with Kilgrave's murder and they just let her leave because her lawyer said "Yeah, I'll win this lol.". So what, they just gave up and let her go?
>>
>>63138447
He's an underdeveloped psychopathic brat in a mans body, spoiled by his powers in the sense that he's already tried everything at least once on account of his powers. Jessica first scratched that itch of having a new toy with superpowers. What really got him going though was when she was able to resist his control, never really had a person in his life that didn't just do what she was told. And that was both thrilling and eye opening. He realized how alone he truly is, and that drove a need in him to want something he's never had: A significant other that cares about him at her own volition.
Also, he probably didn't die at the end. With upgraded powers, he told everyone at the pier, Jessica included, to think they saw her snap his neck. He then escaped to regather his strength after a physically draining operation and to escape the potentially harmful attention due to recent events
>>
>>63139586
>Happily
His obsession over Jessica just drives home how fucking miserable and pathetic he really is.
Growing up without guidance and having everything automatically handed to him really did a number on him.
Jessica was the first thing since before he got his powers he couldn't really have, and that drove him wild to the point of starting to view her as a person instead of a throwaway toy.
>>
>>63143630
I think it was them letting her go because of all the hassle. They go to court and they're going to have to bring up why dozens of cops opened fire on her, or why dozens of people attacked each other. It was a mess they didn't want to deal with.
>>
>>63143630
This show is set in the same world as the Daredevil show and the Avengers movies, I think also Agent's of Shield. Powered people exist, they aren't common but people are aware of them.

Her lawyer was saying that a dozen officers, whom the detective already spoke with, opened fire on her client against their will just because the limey told them to do it. And the rest of the people at the dock all said that they were being controlled too.

>Drunken brawlers aren't good witnesses
Or something like that. Lawyer points out she is aware of the blood alcohol tests already run that came up as that being a sober group.

Bottom line, the lawyer points out that she has over 2-3 dozen people that will all testify to mind control at the docks, half of them being police officers, officers that if not for the mind control would have been guilty of opening fire on a innocent citizen for no reason. She called the detectives bluff and won. That is why Jones was able to leave.

>>
>>63143922
Had to google it but Nuke is Simpson.

Simpson didn't seem like a bad guy to me, more just used by the bad guys. But I haven't read the comics, maybe in those he is more of a clear cut bad guy. In the show he just seemed like a good guy that got fucked over by Kilgrave then by the doctors drugs.
>>
>>63144032

Simpson wasnt "bad guy" just an obsessed asshole. His obsession with Kilgrave was almost the same as Kilgraves obsession with Jessica.
>>
Can mind control even be used for good? I'm struggling to come up with examples. You could get criminals to confess their crimes, I guess?
>>
>>63144566
>good

There's your problem. Morals don't exist outside of the human brain. They aren't a tangible thing. They differ from person to person.

Getting a rich person to buy a poor person something good or evil? Rich person won't even notice the missing money, but the poor person didn't earn it.

Getting one person to kill themselves so they don't hurt anyone else? Good or evil?

Shit doesn't work that way.
>>
>>63142420
Honestly just get rich and never do any work ever again. And yes I know money is useless to him since he can get whatever he wants, but I'd just order shit from amazon because I am lazy. Probably hire some high quality chef to cook for me, I'd still pay him instead of controlling him though.
Also I'd buy a few exotic animals to keep as pets, then die like an idiot when one of them mauls me

long term mind control you could compel shitty people to be better or cure people of their addictions and mental illnesses or get all world leaders to agree to peace

short term mind control like his leads itself to more impulsive selfish uses, but you could do the vigilante thing completely peacefully by just walking up to criminals and telling them to turn themselves in
>>
>>63142420

I'd be too paranoid I'd get caught using them and can't even think of anything I'd want to do with it anyway. Superspeed however I wish I had, I am perpetually wishing I could do things faster.
>>
>>63138447
Because when you can make people do whatever you want, you probably lose perspective and get bored easy.

Jessica was the 1 challenge he couldn't overcome so he became obsessed with her.

Also being too much in the public eye would risk being caught, or coming into contact with other superheroes who may figure him out
>>
>>63144566
>Can mind control even be used for good? I'm struggling to come up with examples

Well he literally uses it for good in the show when he's with Jessica.

He convinces that guy to let the hostages go, and then hand himself in to the police

He only did that to get Jessica to stay. He just seems like a bitter ex that can't get his way. He's a childish and greedy little shit that only cares about himself.
>>
>>63145723
I know, but that guy was asking if mind control can actually be used for good, I was showing him an example that it can
>>
>>63145690

I wouldn't even enjoy a "top class" meal and I don't need any more money for the simple things in life I enjoy.

I would only use it if someone's trying to mug me or some crazy situation.

Because that is just his character. He has crazy amounts of power but has no ambition. This probably stems from the fact that as a child, everybody did exactly what he told them. He never had to work or earn anything. It makes sense that he wouldn't aspire to anything beyond his immediate basic needs.

Get 200 million or so from a billionaire, then live a life of luxury and only use my powers in emergencies. If you have money, mind control is unnecessary. The only hard part is getting to the rich guy and not having him come after you.

this.

it's basically his fault that everyone died but people on here like to blame jessica.

For the first 10 episodes he's the only reasonable character
>>
>>63147230
He was too much of a misogynist, if I can say that without being bombarded by y'all.

The way he talked down to Jessica when they were planning on taking down Kilgrave was just so fucking repulsive.
>>
>>63138447
Such as?

I think he was laying low, if he starts controlling politics and trying to dominate the world, some powerful people would become aware of him and could try to get rid of him.

He doesn't have anything aside from his "mind control" powers, a shot from a sniper and he's dead.
>>
>>63142420
probably not even know I had it since I don't interact with people
>>
can someone clarify for me? his powers eventually wear off on people right?

so if i did some crazy shit eventually they would realize that im some mind controlling dude right? isn't this a pretty big downside?
>>
>>63146201
Seems like a lot of work, just say "You really want to have sex with me", and the thought will just pop on her mind. Maybe after the effects wear off, she'll regret a little, but more like "What a stupid mistake I made, can't believe I had the hots for that guy" and not "he raped me with superpowers!"
>>
>>63147254

I think he just thought he was hot shit since he had military training, and uh, he was right, he was more qualified than her to kidnap someone.
>>
>>63147756
>but more like "What a stupid mistake I made, can't believe I had the hots for that guy" and not "he raped me with superpowers!"
This shit happens even without superpowers though.
>>
>>63147670
Yes. He avoided that issue because no one important believed a handful of people who said a man told them to do something and they just had to do it.
>>
>>63147887
so if you had the powers in real life you would have to be very careful and just do small things. seems pretty shit desu i couldn't become rich or famous
>>
>>63143741
But Jessica was charges with his murder
>>
>>63147254
He was right though, just kill him and be done with it. Jessica tried to capture him to save Hope and it just ended up with a lot of people dying(Hope included).
>>
>>63147958
You could easily get rich. Just find a rich person, tell them to give you a few million, erase any security footage tying you to them, and then tell them to jump off a bridge. Repeat until satisfied.
>>
>>63147958
>i couldn't become rich or famous
You could, you just have to be creative. Find some millionaire and become best friends with him. Other people probably won't understand what he sees in you, but that's not important. After a while command him to change his will and leave everything to you. Tell him to kill himself, just make sure you have a good alibi of course.

You get his fortune and people would probably think it's weird, but how would they prove anything?
>>
>>63138447
Is the show any good? I can't watch it because the female lead is all about "muh rape." "muh oppression"

Jesus christ, you got one of the best powers in the world and you still ended up getting raped? WTF.

>Trish and Jessica shutting up Simpson who is a black ops specialist whose done VIP kidnappings before

Because he came at it like a dick being super bossy and trying to jump into it when he wasn't even part of it then. You do remember that Trish then told Jessica to shut up, and they followed his plan, remember?

The power works on anyone infected with his virus that hears him speak (something to do with his voice). He could've left a pre recorded message and it still would've worked.
The thing is, the virus wears out after a certain amount of time of not being in his vicinity.

Is that what you took away from episode 11? Trish just meant that Jessica was the master of her own trauma. JESSICA needed to deal with her own problems, not some man, or she would never get over it.

It would have worked if not for Simpson.
>>
>>63146420
Simson, not Simpson

He's based off of Frank Simson, the Nuke

>>63148353
yeah because the lives of all the people that got killed in the mean time were less important than jessica getting over her trauma

>>
>>63148353
>JESSICA needed to deal with her own problems, not some man, or she would never get over it.

And she still won't be over it by the next season.

The whole appeal of her character is that she a woman that was raped by a straight white man and now she is perpetually triggered

If they make her less edgy and reasonable next season they will lose the feminist audience.

No. I'm saying that if she ever gets over her rape, the whole appeal of her character will dissapear.

Hell that's pretty much the only thing her character (and the fact that she acts like an asshole towards everyone) has going for it.

I have seen only seen up to episode 7, and so far the lawyer character feel unnecesary for the overall plot and is total cardboard.
>>
>>63149038
It feels like they are setting up Jeri to become a bad guy next season.

But then again she a lesbian and not a straight white guy. I don't know how well that would go with the SJW crowd.
>>
>>63149038
The lawyer character is only tenously tied to the plot by being the defense attorney for Kilgrave's victim in Ep 1. She does play a pivotal role later on in Ep 11-12.

>one of the best powers in the world
What? She only has super strength.

Killgrave has mind control. Now THAT'S an OP as fuck superpower.

>I can't watch it because the female lead is all about "muh rape."
I didn't see much of that, though. She complains about being raped once during episode 9, but it's never brought up again. If anything, what she really struggles to move on about it, is killing Luke's wife.

>"muh oppression"
Are you confusing this with a different show?
>>
>>63148899
>let's make some character act retarded."

That sucks man, got any good shows you can recommend.
Horror, scifi, action, will be fine, thriller too.
Just anything other than the daily soaps, and citcoms.

There may not even be a next season since JJones is based on the Alias comic. The Alias comic basically ends right where the series finale was. The comic was later recast into The Pulse which JJones was only a supporting character. The Pulse focused mainly on Luke Cage.

If anything, Netflix will probably focus on Luke Cage and make JJones a supporting character or recurring cast member in that series.

ONLY, did you miss where she can jump high and probably fly?

>Are you confusing this with a different show?

Pretty sure you have your SJW glasses on.

>Killgrave has mind control. Now THAT'S an OP as fuck superpower.

It's very clearly stated that his powers are limited in both range and effect. They only last 10-12 hours (initially) and he has to be within a certain radius of his target for it to work.

Also, any power that can be nullified with earplugs can't be that OP.

Last decent thing i saw was season 1 of Utopia (Uk one), which imho was really fun, too bad is only 6 eps.
>>
>>63149180
>jump high
Doesn't that come from her super strength though? Even if she could fly, I don't consider one of the best power in the world(Just My m opinion of course).

>Pretty sure you have your SJW glasses on.
Nope, I hate SJWs as much as the next guy. I was actually bothered by the lesbian lawyers, that was SJW pandering as fuck. And all the interracial sex. But I didn't really see Jessica complaining about "oppression". Unless you mean Killgrave "oppressed" her with his powers.
>>
Tumblr shit aside, can we all agree that this show is terribly written?
>>
his growth in emotional maturity ended when he was 10
he knows this and is part of why he hates his parents

all he wants is to be loved but it's hard when you accidentally brainwash people whenever you ask a question or make a request and they instantly hate you
>>
>>63149251
Agreed.

(Holy shit, people agreeing in the internet)
>>
Simson was right, they had a moral obligation to kill Kilgrave.
>>
>>63149215
But it's still mind control, you could get pretty much anything you want.

If I had to choose, I would pick Kilgrave's power in a heartbeat, even with all the limitations.

>>63149229
>Utopia

thanks man, i'll check it out.


>>63149251
yes

>Tumblr shit aside

Well, the tumblr shit is the main reason why the writing is shit, predictable and illogical

Can't wait for Iron Fists or the Punisher
>>
>>63149251
It's fairly ambitious writing with poor execution. The writing team tried to weave in a lot of themes through their characters (Jessica - PTSD, Patty - Child Abuse, Robyn/Ruben - Incest, Hope - Violation/Rape/Despair/Abortion, Malcolm - Drug Addiction, Jeri - Greed) that didn't really gel together as well as they'd hoped.

I applaud the effort but the final product is pretty dismal.

go to stock market
tell everyone to sell gold
buy gold at it's lowest price in history
tell everyone to buy gold
sell gold at it's highest price in history
repeat until you own all the gold you physically could

repeat with all stocks and all goods until you own everything
rule the wold in less than a day
>>
>>63149391
I disagree, i think the characters seem cardboard because they are too focused on 1 thing, that's shitty writting.

Other things i think are poor, but not sure if to blame the writters, is a lot of story continuity problems, for example the family that attacks jessica when she follows the cop to killgrave disappears totally. No mention they are ok, no police report of "mind control". The entire angle of the radioshow exposing killgrave disapeared at some point.

I would fly to America and make EVERYONE vote for Trump
>>
>>63149285
he was a fucking asshole though
>>
>>63149600
xD
>>
>>63149675

Still 100% right though. Many lives would've been saved if they'd listened to him from the start.
>>
>>63149822
Seriously though can you imagine the shitstorm that would occur if Trump got 100% of the popular vote?
>>
Why didn't Jessica just cut his vocal cords when she had him captured?
>>
so what are his powers? keep seeing these threads pop up but cba to watch the show
>>
>>63150039

that would be mean.
>>
>>63138447
,,,because he's petty. That's the entire point. He could be brainwashing world leaders or running the entire world, and instead he spends his time raping 7-out-of-tens and obsessing over skinny goth chicks.
>>
>>63150105
Basically mind control. He tells you to do something and you get the urge to actually do it.
>>
>>63150105
People will do whatever he tells/asks them to do.

Which is a serious problem because he can't turn it off - he has no idea if people are doing shit of their own free will when he asks them something unless he watches his words incredibly closely

Naturally, it fucked up his childhood hardcore since his parents were literally unable to tell him "no"
>>
>>63142512
>Hook up with chicks who with my powers I can more impressionably flatter but not directly make sleep with me

Did you forget about the part where he has to try very hard to watch everything he says if he doesn't want to mindrape people? It happens all the time even inadvertently. You can't have a normal conversation with people if you have his powers. You have to meticulously consider each and every word to make sure you aren't making a suggestion.
>>
>>63142834
No, if the anesthetic worked he wouldn't be able to harm anyone.

And saving people is the job of a hero.
>>
>>63143146
>The rest of them don't make sense though

No, they all make sense.

>>63150039
from what i understand the virus makes you want to do his bidding
if the virus gets to you and he writes something you should still do it
>>
>>63146963
Only at first because of the novelty that she was super powered. He didn't truly become OBSESSED until after she defied him.
>>
>>63142940
When the virus became "stronger", it probably made it travel faster or some shit. Whenever he opens his mouth everyone probably gets instantly infected, it's just that you don't see the "Symptoms" (mind control) until he tells them something to do, which he does over the intercom.
