Watched the pilot. It's not bad.

so far

by RealGunner Fri Mar 17, 2017 2:06 pm

Episode 2

Spoiler:

This is perhaps the slowest of all the marvel shows so far. But despite that, it's not bad.

by LeVersacci Fri Mar 17, 2017 2:12 pm

might start on it tonight

by LeVersacci Fri Mar 17, 2017 10:57 pm

Watched the pilot. Like the story so far.

Hate that Ward guy from the get-go

by RealGunner Fri Mar 17, 2017 11:01 pm

Same lol

Guy has a creepy face and is a terrible actor. Hope he dies asap.

Watched the pilot. Meh.

The acting is horrible from almost everyone except for Finn Jones so far. Ward guy and his dad probably with the worst acting scene I have ever seen in my entire life. So much cringe in that scene.

The plot isn't really that interesting either so far.

You know the acting is bad when Nymeria Sand is the best actor in the show rofl

She's been quite awful as well.

Finn Jones is the only one acting well as well Simon the mental patient.

I'm sure you if give 1% of the budget of this show to Freeza and he'd produce a better show than this Laughing

Everyone saying the show is awful but IMO it isn't.
It's just meh. It's like a uniteresting Arrow with less archery but one really cute semi Asian chick

by RealGunner Sat Mar 18, 2017 10:12 am

Yea it's not awful. Disagree with James.

It's decent. Not unwatchable by any means.

Eh.....

Arrow was fine first season and maybe 2nd too. Became awful afterwards. I'm not watching it anymore so I don't know the present.

Still watching Flash though even if I'm getting pretty annoyed by it and so I get occasional Arrow cross-updates which sound absolutely ridiculous every time.

by zigra Sat Mar 18, 2017 1:40 pm

Mh I think Arrow was ok for the first two seasons but you said it's like an uninteresting version of it. Also the fight scenes seem to be even worse than in Arrow.
To me that sounds quite awful. But I think I'll still give it a try.

by Hapless_Hans Sat Mar 18, 2017 1:44 pm

Yeah ok i mean it's all a matter of expectations and definitions.

It's just that before starting to watch I saw it has like a 19% score on metacritic and everyone hating on it and then I thought it wasn't THAT bad.

It's not good, if that's what you want to know.

by LeVersacci Sat Mar 18, 2017 3:07 pm

EP5:

by McAgger Sat Mar 18, 2017 6:30 pm

Seen the first 6 episodes.

The fighting choreography is awful for a show about martial art super hero.

I'll finish it because I think the Defenders will be good ad I want to have the whole backstory to that.

by LeVersacci Sat Mar 18, 2017 8:09 pm

EP 7 ending rofl

I can't

by McLewis Sat Mar 18, 2017 8:38 pm

Honestly, this has been much better than expected.

Started slow, but has gotten better and better, especially the later eps.

Is it campy and cliche? Yes. Is the writing bad? More like average.

I think I still prefer Daredevil's more raw, gritty mood,but this hasn't been anywhere near as bad as it's been made out to be. Despite that, it's for behind Luke Cage for me.

My favorite character? Harold Meacham. David Denham finally getting a great role have so many as a sidekick.

by RealGunner Sat Mar 18, 2017 9:33 pm

Netflix's skip intro bit is a nice addition

by LeVersacci Sat Mar 18, 2017 9:40 pm

EP 8:

by zigra Sun Mar 19, 2017 2:05 am

Finally watched a few episodes. Don't know if I'd call it terrible but if you'd ask me what's good about the show I honestly couldn't tell you anything.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Mar 19, 2017 1:55 pm

I can look over a lot of things, like badly choreographed fights (let's be honest all those series fights are terrible compared to, say, proper Hong Kong films), as long as I find the characters somewhat engaging.

So the main problem with Iron Fist, as it seems to be showing now, is that the main character is just an absolute moron whom frankly I don't care much what happens.
He's this supposed super warrior but he's stupid as a loaf of bread.
I can't stand watching stupid characters.

So no, I won't continue to watch this.

by rincon Sun Mar 19, 2017 11:25 pm

I was expecting the worst thing ever from the comment.

Gladly surprised. Not the best, but entertaining and cool enough to pass the time.

Only watched 2 episodes.
