Wow, R rated. That'd be rather interesting. (que Marvel fan boys saying DC is now trying to copy Deadpool).

If I can pick just one DC story to have an R rating, I'd absolutely love it to be The Killing Joke.

It was very slow paced, and I was struggling to really get into it during the begging. That all changed once Kilgrave came in and stole the show.

It definitely wasn't the kind of show I could sit and marathon like Daredevil, but it was still very good.

About episodes 9-11 but more through frustration then anything else.

I liked JJ but it could be slow at times.

I preferred DD much more to be honest, best superhero show yet.

Apart from 1960's Batman of course.

New Daredevil trailer out today, very Elektra focused, and shes awesome.

Bigger news though is the Defenders team is now complete apparently as Finn Jones of GOT has been cast as the immortal iron fist. I like the look, can he pull off the athleticism required.


Bit of a storm on twitter as alot of people wanted an asian iron fist, which i wouldnt have minded. Valid argument though that only an asian can play a kung-fu master is stereo typing.

And theyve just started a new run of comics with the hereos for hire, so that would create issues between the tv and comic world.

Similar storm came out when Tilda Swinton was announced to play the ancient one in Dr Strange. Claims of whitewashing etc

They should have leaked that Shia lebouf was in line for blackpanther and sat back and watched the Internet break down

Yeah, people who are crying whitewash dont understand the term.

Being a caucasian in Kun-lun is a big part of Danny Rand story, as is his relationship with Luke Cage.

Making him asian waters that down alot imo.

Just watched Deadpool. Had my doubts about Reynolds, but he nailed it.

Also, that scene involving Colossus on the highway made me lose my shit!
