So it's Rick Roll and/or orgasming woman? Added to my watch later anyway thanks.
Those Marvel shows are the best. TV. Ever.
This is excellent news.
Rumour is it's going to be released 10th Nov, as that's the Marine Corp's birthday.
I'm not sure if the use of One is very well done, or very badly done. Doesn't quite work for me, but I like the idea.
nice
Not sure what it is about "revengeful" stuff I like, but it worries me

Except Iron Fist. Iron Fist was tripe.
Deliciously cheesy tripe! 😀
Do you mean than thing with Danny Rand, the Immortal Iron Fist, Protector of Kun-Lun, Sworn Enemy of the Hand in? That was the best show about someone telling everyone his parent's died in a plane crash I've seen. Raised by monks he was, but the monks must have been bratty American teens given the wisdom they imparted on him.
No I think you mean Batman. Or Green Arrow. Or Blind Fury. Or some amalgam of all of them.
Could be worse, could be Arrow (although it's not far off the mark)
Edit : what jimjam said
Hope it's as good as Dare Devil. Love the way that series is shot. The hallway, biker gang beat down is a brilliant piece of choreography and camera work. Iron Fist was like Dawson's Creek but with more glowing hand
One batch, two batch.
All of the netflix marvel tv shows looked like they would be great watching the first episode, but I was bored of them all by the fifth episode, apart from iron fist I didn't even make it to the end of episode 1 of that steaming pile of yak dung.
Really looking forward to this, because...

Wouldn't know. Reviews were so iffy I gave it a complete miss (only Netflix Marvel I haven't lapped up). Having said that, I though the character worked OK in the Defenders with the others as a foil to his brattishness.
Odds on Matt Murdoch pitching up in Punisher? And then Frank Castle joining (or at least hanging out with at some point) the Defenders in season 2?

So you never found out that he was the immortal iron fist, protector of Kun Lun, sworn enemy of The Hand and that his parents died in a plane crash?
re: Defenders 2.
I would swap Mr Castle for Fanny Bland in a heart beat.

So that's who Danny Rand was! I wish he'd mentioned it at some point.
So what I'm taking away from this is that Metallica will be playing at all times through the show and that some people will die because they were waiting for the next suitable riff before they shoot.

What I really liked about that, is that the reason so much of it is in corridors is that it's cheaper to film. But it never feels cheap.
It's almost like a TV series of The Raid

I thought it was excellent! Really looking forward to this one.
Re iron fist, not the best but worked in well the defenders. Also only just realised the other day that iron fist is Loras Tyrell and Colleen is a sand snake!

Did you like the fact that Danny Rand is the immortal iron fist, defender of Kun Lun and sworn enemy of The Hand?

When did this happen?
defender of Kun Lun
Well....about that.
Iron fist. Yes he's a pillock, and rather useless, but that's the point of the show. A poor hero. Show is about idealism. And if you were an all-American kid brought up by magical monks with zero real life experience you'd probably end up sounding the same I reckon. Old enough when you went in to know about cheesy American hero stereotypes but not old enough to be cynical - then taught martial arts to a high standard and instructed to protect the magic city.
Pretty realistic given that, I reckon.
#cat from red dwarf# "so who is he?"
Loved Frank Castle in Dare Devil but looking at the trailer above have they changed what happened to his family? I don't remember them being killed in the family home. <puts on Punisher gym top in anticipation!!!> #giddy
As long as it's better than 'Defenders'. Highly anticipated, mostly mediocre.

Thought about this, and I was talking nonsense! If we're going to get 'Born Again' for Daredevil season 3 as it seems, then unless they start playing timeline games Matt Murdoch will spend most of Punisher not remembering who he is...

They're at the fairground at the start of the trailer. Assume the wife shooting in the home is his nightmare version of events?
I want to know if Madame Gao is still alive.
I'll watch this series with interest, but this:
is The Punisher I wanted more of.
My guess is yes.
My question is who pulled Matt from under the building? Gao? Elektra?
Well we never saw where that tunnel went - I reckon there was a back entrance he got out of himself, or with the help of Elektra.
I think they're all alive anyway. The rules are if you don't see a body, they ain't dead.
I thought Jessica Jones was the best of the Netflix/Marvel ones. Great character.
Luke Cage was pretty good - I liked the tie in with Harlem and the music etc.
Daredevil was pretty good, though characters were like annoying puppies.
Skipped Iron Fist.
Watched the first half of Episode 1 of the Defenders and gave up cos it seemed right up its own arse.
This Punisher one looks good (and that Dirty Laundry short is brilliant)
Not that anyone cares what I think, so carry on
I loved them all.
Iron Fist was less awesome but I still loved it. I liked Defenders, but it didn't feel quite so natural.
I'm holding off on a Netflix sub until November it seems.
Shame about the FBI/CIA back story, can't his family be killed my mobsters anymore?
I loved the Luke cage episodes being named after gang Starr tracks
Watched all and loved them. Defenders was good but could have probably been a little longer, the way they were brought together seemed a little rushed. Looking forward to the next series of all of them!
I can see it, I got that too, well impressed with their marketing of this
It's going to be a revenge filled weekend
jj, if STWers click this link they get to see it
Enjoyed Daredevil so interested in this. Hmm, will have to subscribe to Netflix and binge it before cancelling again!
Four episodes in already. It's awesome.
I only made it through 2 1/2 episodes of Iron Fist. From what I read people's biggest complaints were that you never knew what Danny Rand's motivation was and there were too many board meetings.
This is not a problem in The Punisher.
Seems like a lot of people didn't get the Danny Rand character. I think we did Chez Grips.
PS thanks for reminding me it starts today. I hope Mrs Grips likes it and can deal with the violence. There is a growing list of stuff that she likes but can't watch at night cos it's too dark... It may be about to grow.
Got the new series of Gotham to get through first then it's going to be a Punisher fest.
