The gore in episode nine. Jesus!

When the Punisher kills all the prisoners.

 

Probably my favorite scene in the whole season. Reminded me of some of Daredevil's really brutal fights from the first season, where he is just barely able to hold them off. I felt that was kind of missing for him this season, he was just a little too competent.

Still a great season though, couldn't stop watching till it was over, just like the last one.

This was indeed excellent. I love it how they've portrayed The Punisher. I'm at EP 10 now. I'm expecting a big finale

But that like, 7 minute fight in EP 3/4 or something was even more bad ass. So well shot.

Season two was fantastic. I love how the show makes you feel the bones crack in the fighting scenes.

Season 2 of Daredevil was amazing! I fucking loved every second of it. The Punisher was done just the way he should be. I'm really looking forward to his series as well. Btw, Karl Urban said that he was in talks with Netflix for Dredd. How sick would that be? Man, television has gotten to a point that's it's so good that I never watch regular programming anymore. Why sit through endless commercials when you can watch quality stuff on Netflix?

Saw this and the commentary, got interested and went to watch some of the daredevil stuff with punisher. Got a bit disappointed, didn't feel very punisher at all, was more just random kills without meaning or intent. Yeah yeah punisher kills people, but IMO he's one of the best examples of a guy that kills for a reason. here it just seemed more like killing for the sake of killing, and that feels like its betraying the depth of the character in favor of a shallow bloodbath.Plus, in the scene in the prison with kingpin it felt like both characters were reading from a script. I'll try watching it when it comes out but I'm not holding my breath for it being good.

I wouldn't agree with that, I thought the series did a pretty good job of opening the window into The Punisher and revealing why he has the mentality that he does. It was made clear exactly why he was killing these people and what they did to earn their death sentences, and honestly it was very difficult to disagree with his motivation — which was one of the central points of the season, contrasting with Daredevil's approach of never killing anybody no matter what the circumstances (which he was forced to reconsider).

Edit: One thing I just remembered is that if you only watched scenes involving The Punisher himself you might have missed out on a lot of the context because it's through Karen and her investigation into his former life that a lot of his story is told. For example, she's the one who uncovers what set his broken life into motion, explores his old family home, etc.

Yeah I'll cede that I only watched a few scenes, but even so because of the acting it just made me not care about it. I always feel subject matter related to comic books should be treated with the best acting possible to counteract the inherent tackiness that comic book lore offers.

Guys have you seen all the tease that came from ComiCon??

The Defenders, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, new Daredevil season (I avoided the trailer cos I haven't seen S2)… and Punisher is still not officially confirmed(?) but heavily teased (Berthal appeared at the panel to say hi and left).

the coming 365 days are gonna be good!

[blackdog]

Should we do a new topic for all of these, or just one Defenders topic? (That's the next series coming out)

 

[blackdog]

New teaser is hidden at the end of Iron Fist Season 2

netflox has dropped a teaser of their October keynote which shows as well DD logo in the sequence, so Season 3 should drop between end of October and ahead of Xmas holidays
