Comic Book and Superhero movie & TV discussion.

Can't find concrete confirmation on that but I've got my my suicide note ready just in case. I'm quick to defend the DC films but there were issues with them, the casting of those two definitely wasn't one of them though.I'll be gutted if we never once get Batfleck in his own film fighting his own baddies.

Speaking of Gotham they’ve just released a photo of their version of Bane

I'm a few episodes in to the new series of Daredevil, it was a bit slow to get going but now I'm tempted to call in sick to work and ruin my life just to carry on watching it.

[Factotum]

It gets very good so keep with it. They really nailed the pacing this season.

Are there as many stairwell ninja fights?  If they've toned that down I'm in.

I’m four episodes in, zero ninjas so far! It’s really good stuff, the most I’ve enjoyed Marvel Netflix since Daredevil season 1.

Daredevil was great, I think DD must have the shittest life of any superhero.

I haven't been so riveted to a TV show for ages, I was on the edge of my seat for the last couple of episodes. It really does try hard to be a well done modern "good TV" style show and not be camp or silly and it pulls it off, you'd have to be the least imaginative cunt on earth to watch that season of Daredevil and think it was silly. I wouldn't want to see a big superhero movie done in that style but for TV and for DD (Punisher also) it works really well.

Some brilliant moments and Pointdexter is my favourite character in anything for ages.

Vincent D'Onofrio obviously killed it as well, I love his Kingpin voice and speech pattern.

I can't believe Kingpin's wife failing to enjoy breakfast would be an interesting scene I'd want to see in a superhero adaptation but here we are.

I loved the fact that even though it tried very hard to be so gritty they still just gave "Bullseye" his perfect aim superpower.

That looks... quite good actually...

Is anyone else watching Titans?  

I'm a hardcore DC guy but I think all the superhero TV shows except Daredevil and Punisher are fucking shit. I gave Titans a chance though and I can't get ebough of it. The interplay between Robin and the guest character this week (episode 6) was brilliant, all the guest characters have been great, Hawk and Dove were really well done too.

Is it available anywhere in the UK right now legally? The initial trailer made it look gash but I'll give anything a proper shot.

So Netflix have cancelled Daredevil. A pox on them all. Gutted by this news.

[LaGoosh]

Isn't it because of the Disney streaming channel coming out next year? All the Marvel Netflix shows will probably be renewed on that channel.

I assume so, Jessica Jones is the only one that's not been officially cancelled by Netflix, but I imagine it won't be long.
