To be honest, I'm only watching this cause I want to know a little bit about him before watching The Defenders. The only thing I know about Iron Fist is he's a good fighter.

He also harnesses the chi of a fucking dragon.

But you don't need to worry about that or being a good fighter, because they can't bother with any of that.

When you deliver a package to someone, she pours out M&Ms, then starts crying...I'd think she might be the one that should be in the loony bin and not the Danny XD

The only time I ever heard of him was I think in a Marvel Ultimate Alliance game.

It's okay until around the halfway point, when it starts to go into a million different directions.

Imma take this with a grain of salt cause people said the second half of Luke Cage show was worse than the first half and I liked the second half just the same as the first.

I'm enjoying it so far.

And YAAAS for a hot asian chick! She's the closest I'll get to having X23 in a show or movie and she looks like she's going to be an awesome fighter! Ugh, I hope I get to see some swordplay from her!

X23? She was in two x-men movies.

i really liked iron fist. but it was more like a mystery crime show than the other marvel show. that's why i don't think people like it. it was filmed like a marvel action show but really it's just a who done it show.

The only show I've seen so far is Daredevil and all but two episodes of The Defenders.
Daredevil was excellent IMO. I watched the the first episode of Luke Cage but it wasn't quite my cup of tea. The character Luke Cage was kinda cool though(also he's Locke from Halo 5 lol).
I haven't seen Iron Fist or Jessica Jones yet. I dunno if I'll ever watch them.

Yeah that Asian girl is the best part of the show she is a total badass

My problem with the show is the writing for Danny Rand. The character is so painfully naive and impulsive that it makes it impossible to like him.

Not to ruin your day or anything, but The Defenders was a complete waste of time. I really enjoyed Daredevil, but things started to go downhill with Jessica Jones. Even still, I was hopeful for The Defenders. Don't really want to spoil anything, but just don't get your hopes up. The Punisher, on the other hand, was much more enjoyable, at least for me.

In case you're wondering, it's a ton of infighting, the Hand and The Defenders all fighting among themselves, and more and more of the bullshit justifying their actions blah blah. Yeah, we're gonna set off a bomb, but Luke Cage says "But no more innocent people get hurt ok?"
WTF, you are setting off a bomb in the city. Just shut up and do it because the Hand is a global crime syndicate threatening a lot more than a few innocent people okay?

Out of all the Netflix Marvel shows Iron Fist is my least favorite. Which sucks because it was the one I was most looking forward to. The problem I have with it is the fact that it feels like it just kinda meanders about with no real overall plot.
The main villain is weak and doesn't have much screen presence especially compared to the hand. I also didn't like how the main character comes off as impulsive and naive. Which doesn't strike me as a trait a mystical Kung Fu master would have.
I think one thing they should of did more of is have more variations of fighters for him to fight. Like 1 episode a Muay Thai boxer. Another an mma fighter. Another a monkey Kung Fu fighter. They touch on it a bit but not enough imo. Especially for a show about the world's greatest martial artist. All in all it's an ok show that could be so much better.

Considering I really liked Jessica Jones, I doubt we'll have the same view point on The Defenders being a waste of time.

I'm only on episode 4 but I can see where you're coming from with this. I do understand him being naive though. I mean, he is still young. But he should have enough discipline to not be so impulsive.

Maybe in a second season?!

Ugh, Gao is annoying. When the girl said <"I'm not above putting a sock in your mouth." when she wouldn't shut up, I wish she would have actually done that.

This, I very much dislike him. He gets worse in the Defenders too.
Also, I disliked Colleen's story, because she was an active recruiter for the Hand, yet the people she recruited were immediately more knowledgable about the Hand than she was. Just made her look like an idiot.
