And it was freaking terrible

Seriously I enjoyed Iron Fist more than this mess of a season

What the hell even happened with Bushmaster?

Its like they wrote each episode one at a time but had no idea where they were going with anything

It made me like every character involved in the show less

I think PO mentioned that they had greatly cut the budget for this season. At any rate, I heard that Iron Fist makes a cameo so I'm kinda looking forward to that. Probably going to binge it this coming weekend.

I loved Iron Fist, Punisher turned out pretty good, and JJ2 was alright.

Your tripping, it was frickin awesome. Did you not pay attention to any of the story? Cause it has been explaining what was gonna happen to Bushmaster since near the first time or fight after the first time he fought Like Cage. the nightshade was killing him and poisoning his system, it even effects his mind. When he escaped the police van and blew himself up pretty much, tilda explains how damage he is. Then she gives him the super nightshade and she tells him to take it slowly cause taking it all could have serious drawbacks. So yeah, he was pretty fucked up by the end of the season

Yeah I got all that. But he was built up as one of the main antagonists but then he fizzles out to a side character and then fades from the plot completely

The show is ass. Nothing was resolved in any satisfactory way whatsoever. The only redeeming thing I can think of from the entire season was the actor that played his dad. He did a great job.

Also Shades and Mariah are freaking gross. Did we really need 30 scenes of them slowly speaking to each other and then slowly making out with maximum volume mouth noises?

He came off as a kind of punisher character honestly. He was never really the antagonist, the stokes were always the antagonists. I so agree about shades and Mariah, I think it's gross mainly because Mariah just isn't attractive at all and comes off as a cougar. Shades was blinded by being gay and trying to fight it. Mariah, been with a gay man before and knew it the whole time. She just saw shades as a asset she could manipulate. She never really loved him. I felt shades had a nice arc that has been forth coming ever since pops barbershop got shot up like went from thinking he was invincible to becoming humble and realizing he had to step up to save Harlem in a different way besides using his power. the coffee machine talk with his dad it was more revolved around Luke accepting who he was and fulfilling his purpose. I guess I just felt it had a lot of character development.

Ew. Spoilers, because I don't even want to read that let alone see it. And I thought Shades was faking a romantic interest in season 1 to manipulate Mariah

I'm several episodes in and it does suck so far. But punisher is good. I'd say the baseline for the Netflix universe is pretty decent.

They do try to go for different tones and genres compared to their movie counter parts so that could narrow the hit or miss margin.

Jessica Jones season 2 was a straight up bore fest. It doesnt really get good until like episode 8 and even then its still pretty meh.

I like the first season of Luke Cage though. I have yet to watch the second season.

In fact I completely forgot I watched it lmao I thought I still haven't seen it, until I finished luke cage and went " ya know maybe I should watch jessica" then I saw they were all watched and got confused lmao then I read some of the synopsis and was reminded what it was about lol It was completely forgettable lol

idgaf about bushmaster or mariah.
it's also pretty unbelievable that bushmaster could beat luke cage.

also, i had to pay closer attention because the accents were so damn thick.

they still used way too much music

What's unbelievable about that? It was one super vs another. And it's Luke Cage, not Superman.

Havent seen it but tbqh not interested. Only Netflix marvel show that interests me is daredevil. And maybe punisher.

They need to just get Danny and Luke together for their hero for hire show.

Neither of which he needs, since he's the better fighter (and obviously a lot faster). He's strong enough to actually hurt Cage and durable enough to take a punch (and a bullet), which is all he needs to be competitive. And keep in mind that his one real win was after he blindsided Luke, after which Luke was fighting pretty sloppy. He technically lost on the bridge (forcing him to use his powder), he outright lost at the Rand offices, and he was defeated by a combined effort after getting a massive power-up -- which *probably* put his strength on par with Luke's -- that let him smash through what was something like a 3-foot thick steel door

i would just rather have an actual powered person go against him.

(thought shades might have powers in season 1. he always wore those shades, and was at the same prison that experimented on cage...)

He did have powers, even if he needed a drug to bring them out. It's not like Diamondback where he just donned a super-suit, although there was nothing wrong with relying on a super-suit

I know, right? That seemed like such a tease. I was expecting an epic confrontation at some point.
