That actually looks great. Looks like lots of blood and bullets flying around.
The only thing that is weird is how good Billy looks for a guy who had his face grated against shattered glass. But I guess he could have gotten reconstructive surgery to fix at least some of the damage Frank did to him.
Doubt it. There is clearly scarring in various areas that he didn't have before. But the amount of scarring is pretty light considering how bad he looked at the end of S1:

But, eh, like I said, they could literally throw in a single line about him getting some plastic surgery to fix some of it, and it would address that.

Apparently the show is going to ignore the events of Infinity War. I saw some article about it. So I'm guessing this takes place after the events of IW, but it's not gonna mention it.
Not surprising. They will want to distance the Netflix shows from the canon now in case they can later reintroduce a new incarnation of Daredevil and/or Punisher.
It's kind of both funny and sad though. There is currently this fairly big fan rally going on to "save Daredevil", as though that is likely to achieve anything.
As if the guys in charge actually care.
Don't get me wrong. I would love to be proven wrong and see the show revived. But I just don't see it happening, considering Disney and Marvel's wider business interests and plans. At least not in its current form.
At best, if Disney and Netflix came to an agreement to push out one more season, Disney would likely already start planning ahead to future integration (otherwise, there would be no point for them to do so, in terms of the long run), and force tonal changes in anyways, so it wouldn't be the same show anymore.

Actually those fan rallys have saved a few shows (at least for one more season).But yeah theres more corporate politics involved here. That said hopefully some execs on both sides can convince both corporations to do something to win over some fan love.
I'd try to have him make a small cameo in the next Spiderman film where he teaches Peter how to use his extra senses better. 😄
Then we can have a Spiderman with a functional Spider sense and probably make 90% of the DD fans jizz their pants.

Ugh, yeah. That's the thing. Both those shows in particular would have to be horribly bastardised from their current form to fit the Disney PG-13 mould. Everything from the tone, to themes they address, to the level of graphic violence being portrayed would have to be changed.

That would make Both DD and Spidey fans jizz their pants. Especially if you added in a scene of Kingpin watching the whole thing over cctv.
I am about halfway through, and I really want to like this, because it's likely the last season, but it has not been good for me so far. Great acting and performances from the cast. Great action sequences.
However, the plot is flimsier than bargain bin, 1-ply toilet paper, and really does not warrant 8 episodes, let alone 13. One of the main characters actually summarises the entire plot so far in a sentence in episode 6, and, rightfully, makes it sound stupid. Because it is. And, because of this, the show is dragging terribly for me at the moment. Because there simply isn't enough story, so characters meander about a lot, and we get things like nothing montages of people putting on makeup or buying laptops and crap, just to fill screen time.
I'm hoping it picks up in the 2nd half though, and ends on a strong note.
I'm up to episode 8 right now so far I'm really enjoying it. Yes episode 3 has been my favorite so far...such a great episode.
It's strange to say cuz I'm usually more into the shows with powers...those are what I look forward to the most, but the Punisher has turned out to be the best of the Marvel shows IMO.
