she poisoned herself, calling it now or black nurse did it

>>63622604
as much as any other work relying on Kung Fu as its main gimmick

Well, this has become quite the situation, huh? MK should be bitchslapped and we also know that Sunny could beat The Widow, so there's that.

cancelled in 1 season
america is not ready for an asian lead
>>
>>63622710
The Widow has yet to beat any significant character in a fight, she's a stealth operator and subterfuge specialist, she can't handle direct confrontation for shit
>>
>>63622711

Nah, it's pretty solid for a new show. I see it getting a 2nd season, but reading ratings is like moonrunes sometimes.
>>
>that fucking ki blast
>>63622789
She's basically what Black Widow should be. Instead, Whedon has her running around the battlefield punching face.
That or she's a jobber.
>kills mooks with ease
>pushed into a corner by Quinn, saved only by PLOT MIGRAINE
>pushed into a corner by Sonny, saved only by PLOT MAGIC
She also chooses the shittiest weapons, and constantly wants to dual wield. Twin flippy ninja swords, twin flails (no seriously they weren't even nunchaku, they were just a pair of morning stars), twin tiger hook swords. Flair over function.
Meanwhile, the people who beat her used a greatsword, what should be a katana but clearly as not, a guandao, a shield and a fucking torch.

I was expecting super powers from this show. Like Heroes but if it were good or original

instead I got, everybody was kung fu fighting, some shitty romances, and a plot where literally all the characters are just blatant liars not even good liars.

How to fix
-Give the Baron less fucking screen time. He's better when he's just being in charge and going crazy behind the scenes not when he's in every fucking scene.

-Jackie chan actually attempts to challenge the baron instead of just fleeing

-No fucking Dragonball evolution

-Centralize the fucking knowledge base (It's like a fucking MMO fetch quests on the TV with the cast just trying to learn shit)

-GUNS

yup, total jobber

/k/, plz

Season's almost over. As long as The Badlands itself is interesting, I can forgive the weaknesses in the story.

I'm sick and fucking tired of dumbfucks spinning around in circles with swords like roided-out tards and just mowing down hordes of bad dudes while taking no damage or expending any effort at all.

Its fucking annoying, its not just this piece of shit, its literally any movie/show with swords or melee fighting is just spinning around + slashing people + inhuman reaction times and maneuvers + terrible half-a-second film cuts. It's all suppose to be "cool" or "flashy" but really it shows that the fucking script is "main character kills 3 doods with sword, end scene".

Its just so incredibility fake. There's no tension, no build up, no element of coolness too it. You know from the second the episode starts that the good guy is going to win, effortlessly, and with dozens of dead bad doods at his feet with just a couple of wrist flicks and some minorly tarnished plot armor.

Well it fits the kung fu theme since kung fu is all about slapping each other's clothes repeatedly with a flat slap slap sound until one combatant is exhausted

Same thing with kung fu weapon fights where everything is made out of bendy rubber and eventually one combatant simply gives up and leaves.

>>63621779
basically, It seems they have shit like x rays and a somewhat better understanding of how shit works, but yeah. hes boned.

Agreed wholeheartedly, though this show is less a symptom as it is a recapturing of the cause (wuxia movies). Quinn's the best fighter they've got, precisely because 1) he looks like hes actually trying really hard to both not die and kill the other guy, and 2) because he doesn't do any flippy ninja bullshit.
Think of it this way - if Sonny were to swing at someone not fighting back, they'd shake around and blood packets would burst and they'd fall. If Quinn were to do the same, that guy would fall in two pieces because this motherfucker does not play, he's bigger than you, his sword is bigger than yours and he's been doing this (this = killing) a lot longer than you.
Interestingly enough, he also has the only western-looking weapon I've noticed so far.
>>63623501
Yeah, that's a jobber. She beats a bunch of mooks so we know she's more skilled than both the average person and the average thug, but when she has to go up against someone with a name, she shits the bed so we know how powerful this other guy is.
>>63624104
They have IVs at least

>>63623956
Nah the fights are great, fuck off back to spiketv
