this is what i don't understand shows become fossils because of stupid productions houses.
Oh myy amazing,that was better than trailer why didn't they just ask the guy to direct this
, Shankar is incredibly talented; worked on Dredd, Machine Gun Preacher and also was part of the Punisher Short-Film.
It's because the Rangers have always been sought of PG, I guess Time Force was the only series which was dark by their standards but due to the $$$$ they get from the merch which the youth buy I doubt we will see a dark rangers in the future unless Saban sell the franchise rights to someone else. Similarly you get many TV shows which are limited in terms of content so a platform like Netflix is amazing for creativity, DC movies have also suffered due to too much involvement from the studio's.
But man that PR bootleg was awesome always wanted a dark version of PR that's about all we'll ever get

Comics wise DC is better and tbh i found DC cartoons to be better as well esp Batman( haven't watched latest spiderman though).
Agree on the narration ,remarkable thought hat DC characters actually have more layers to them Marvel ones but somehow Marvel studio has managed to portray their characters better on show compared to DC
Agree about how shows like JJ will stand great irrespective of MCU relevance.
but the saving grace is the animated shows and their comics, am not sure if you've seen it but there's an animated show called young justice that was also absolutely fantastic; the narrative was very intricate especially for an animated series.
There's a new spidey cartoon coming out but the last one which was really good came out in 2008 the spectacular spider-man, the funny thing is I was reading the comic "spider-man blue" at the same time and the show takes great inspiration from that so I stopped watching Spidey, still have a season left
That I agree with
Even though first season DD and JJ were in the same universe they revolved around different genre's and for that reason I didn't like comparing the two because they were both great in their own right, quiet a few peeps in the old threads liked JJ a lot more which one did you like more, JJ or DD (first season)
).
Really have to check out Spidey its just that i'm sure i'll find it one dimensional but will defn give it a try.(The Tv shows have spoilt me
Between JJ and DD i would say on a standalone basis JJ beats DD also has a more comic book feeling to it but considering the thrill and "superhero" characters DD beats JJ in that aspect.
Hard to choose but tbf i like JJ,DD more than Luke(which i liked as well) and surely would still like em more than iron fist unless that surprises me
Nope. I'm halfway through Luke Cage and I'll probably watch Jessica Jones but that's about it. Not watching a martial arts master who can't fight.
If they had given the role of Danny Rand to that other dude, Victor Tan (I think?), then I'd watch it but otherwise nah.
Instead of getting a properly shot fight scene Hollywood/Western TV shows always go with some random white guy with zero athletic ability. On top of that they don't know how to shoot fight scenes so they always look terrible and the worst part of it is the guys they cast as the lead character are crap at acting so they fail in every respect. It invariably falls on the side characters to save the show.
Look at the difference between a properly shot fight scene and what we get from Western movies/TV.

On one side you can actually see what is happening, on the other it's either a confusing mess or looks utterly laughable.
Kudos to Keanu and the John Wick chaps for giving us proper action in a Hollywood movie for the first time in years.
No excuse. Worst case scenario, he wears a mask in the comics so stick a mask on and put a stunt double in for the fights.
Or you can train the guy. Keanu isn't a martial artist but the action in John Wick is leagues ahead of anything else you'll find in a Hollywood movie.
If the people making Iron Fist are too lazy to make even the most token effort, then I'm not going to watch it.
which made the stunt double an issue.That's the thing not all heroes wear masks
Keanu Reeves is one of a kind though, not many out there like him. Scott Adkins is one of the few out there who'd have been suitable for such a role. Am also not familiar with the Iron Fist character am not sure what his portrayal has been like in general and what he is meant to be [MENTION=140459]SandyB[/MENTION] ?
The fighting standards in general have dropped because fighters are no longer cast as leads and it is not easy for actors to accumulate skills which take years to master in a short amount of time which is why Keanu Reeves is special
