Spoiler:
In the Original Iron Fist comic from the 70s Danny can take far more than a normal amount of nuclear radiation while injured to kill some Reactor opponent, in episode 2 he can barely function because of a cocktail of drugs

Lmao

IF is supposed to be a badass martial artist.

This actor is so awkward in his movements and not to mention the choreography...Damn Netflix finally dropped the ball

They kinda already did with Luke Cage, tho yeah, the choreography on here can be a hit or miss, but despite what others have said/expected I'm surprisingly enjoying it more than LC so far.

They should have cast an Asian.

Or a Experienced martial artist lol.

When I see IF I want to see Donnie yen, Jackie chan, Bruce Lee, jet lee, tony jaa, JCVD, MJW, Wesley Snipes, Scott Adkins, and Chuck Norris all rolled into one superhero. Is that too much too ask?

That's disappointing.

Did they have an experienced martial artist for Daredevil?

Why didn't they just use a stunt guy for Danny's fights?

They didn't but I put IF above DD in terms of skill.
Therefore expect hin to fight better... Not by much though. DD a bad MF too

Episode 3: "Rolling Thunder Cannon Punch".

I love this title.

Saw the first two eps, expected them to be boring as f*ck given some of the reviews. They weren't boring as f*ck though.

Can't for the life of me seem to recall any amazing badass choreographed fights from the pilot episode of Daredevil and shit like that, but meh perhaps they were so utterly amazing I repressed them.

You think that's badass choreography? Do you action movies bro

I don't, I'm saying I can't seem to recall Daredevil or another Marvel show starting out with badass choreography.

Do you?

Daredevil did have a pretty cool fight in the first episode actually.

I guess we can agree to disagree on what is "cool" then.

Wait, why are we focusing on the pilots choreography anyway?

Are they at least making up names for regular stuff?

Like a haymaker isn't a punch, it's a "rock smash!". 😉

To be fair, Danny was all over the place early. He'd beat up a 15 foot tall robot and kick down a big metal door, yet hurt himself against a metal looking man, say, and only issues apart.

Currently on episode 8 and its picked up a little.

Was cool to see Danny

Spoiler:
use his Chi to defend himself against bladed weapons
but was really disappointed in Gao's trial. So far the show is a mixed bag

Well, imo so was Daredevil 2 at least. It's like "Castle, awesome" and "Elektra as a prophetic weapon and what the hell is going on?"

5 episodes in and this show isn't bad, but it's so f*cking slow. I really hope some momentum builds up.
