I'm surprised that they got higher reviews than DD season 2. punisher alone, along with Elektra, made that season pretty damn good.

And yes, both JJ and Luke Cage had long stretches of boring and uninteresting storylines, that doesn't mean the entire show was that way.

I was very clear that The Cotton Mouth part of Luke Cage was its saving grace, and anything involving The Purple Man in JJ was great. Outside of that though, not as good.

BTW you're making out like I said both sucked. I didn't...I'm saying compared to DD they were both let downs. That's still pretty good compared to most of what's on tv.

And that's why I hope Iron Fist is more like DD than the other spinoffs.

I'm saying letdowns is harsh. They weren't as good as DD season 1 fine but they were still great in their own right.

Ones subjective tastes doesn't correlate with the vast majority of reviews.

Goddamn, I m getting cloak and dagger like I pitched a long time ago.

 

[Sabretooth]

I never heard of those actors but they look like the characters so I'm sure they can't be too bad

 

[The Phenom]

I'm sure Cloak and Dagger will be very interesting.....Daredevil is the best Netflix Original Superhero Show...I guess Jessica Jones would be next then Luke Cage.

Simon Kinberg in Talks to Write and Direct X-MEN: SUPERNOVA

The next X-Men movie – supposedly titled X-Men: Supernova - might start filming this June and would focus on the Jean Grey/Dark Phoenix storyline, which is a comics arc that fans have been dying to see since Bryan Singer teased it at the end of X2. It basically involves Jean Grey succumbing to her powers and transforming into Dark Phoenix, a malevolent force that brings about Grey’s downfall.

Sophie Turner, who was introduced as the young Jean Grey in X-Men: Apocalypse, was on a red carpet when she revealed she was “about to start shooting the next X-Men movie,” but with both New Mutants and this Supernova film rumored to be in development, it was unclear what film she was talking about.

After talking to multiple sources, Collider reports that writer/producer Simon Kinberg is looking to make his directorial debut with the next X-Men movie and he’s already written the screenplay. From what the site hear,s it does focus on the Dark Phoenix storyline and it’s now up to the studio if they’ll use his script and if he’ll get to direct it.

If for some reason you’re not familiar with Simon Kinberg and his relationship to the X-Men franchise, he’s essentially the Kevin Feige of the X-Men universe at 20th Century Fox. If you look over his IMDb resume, you’ll see he’s either written, produced, or been heavily involved with X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse, Deadpool, Logan, Legion, and New Mutants.

It didn't.

Days was basically made to erase 3 and Origins.

I'd be all over Sophie Turner doing Phoenix the right way.

Exactly. Just act like those 2 abortions in the franchise didn't exist.


I'm still not sure Sophie Turner is a good enough actress to carry a movie...even if it's got a bunch of characters. But I'm willing to give them a shot.

I'm willing to give her a shot. They just have to nail the script and direction.

 

[Deezy]

Sophie Turner been too stone faced in GoT for me to have an opinion on her acting chops.

 

[Deezy]

That being said

That being said

Someone has the right idea.
