Binged Iron Fist yesterday. Solid B

Posted by decline (aka Decline) Mar 20 '17, 11:51

It had a couple of plot issues and some silly story lines. Might go to a B+ on second watch.

Marvel Netflix ranked:

Daredevil
Jessica Jones
Iron Fist
Luke Cage

  - If by "Batman" you mean CW's Green Arrow you are 99% right. -- nm - Spawn Mar 20, 11:55 2
    - That would require me to acknowledge the existence of that show - Reagen Mar 20, 11:57 1
      - True but I think the difference being that Bruce was not forced into the life is a key component of the charcter, where those other rubes were. -- nm - Spawn Mar 20, 11:59
Really? It's been getting slammed in reviews. But you're the second person that's liked it so I might actually give it a shot -- nm - sycor Mar 20, 11:52 2
- This. I almost started it this weekend but wanted to wait for another positive word. - Spawn Mar 20, 11:54 1
  - It's fun. As I said the story gets a bit silly at times. There is an episode directed by RZA that's great -- nm - decline Mar 20, 11:56
