I made some NMCU characters recently, and they range from great to mid - such is the way of LEGO customs - but figured I'd show them off anyway.

I need to find a better torso for Luke (I'm currently using one with the printing removed), Stick has a snatched waist, and I really don't like how Claire turned out but otherwise... Not bad for a first go.

Yes .. I know they are people and not the actual characters. But imagine they are.

I did watch the first season of DD when it first came out. I thought it was excellent, but I kind of fell off for one reason or another. The newest DD show has some buzz around so I decided to finally watch the first three reasons.

Like I said, I remember the first season being good... but holy hell is it excellent. Season 2 was just as good and now I'm making me way through Season 3. I'm five episodes in, and I'm calling. This is probably one of my favorite super heroes things ever. Hopefully the rest of the season is just as good.

Anyhow, I'm curious. Are the rest of the Netflix shows of this quality? I do recall some pretty negative discourse around Iron First, but what about the other shows?

Since Jessica Jones 3 pretty much takes place days before, I like to think she is at the airport.

For Luke Cage, it's pretty open but I think he was at Harlem's Paradise before seeing the giant ship show up, and then having his people help out the residents where they can.

For Danny Rand, we know he is currently in China with Ward, and likely knew nothing about it until the people around him started turning to dust.

Frank Castle is the hardest one because the ending to Season 2 was super random and generic. Maybe he's sleeping.

For Matt Murdock, I like to think he's in the middle of a case with Foggy and Karen. Perhaps in the middle of court, verbally doing to some poor sod what he did to Fisk in the Season 3 finale. Seeing as the ship arrived in Hell's Kitchen, he would be the most interesting hypothetical, I believe.

He was a Power Ranger! I feel like it’s kinda rare to see Power Rangers actors in many big things other than Power Rangers itself, so it’s wild seeing one in Daredevil.

I recently watched Daredevil. It took me a while to watch it cuz I was watching other shows at the same time and got more caught up with them. That being said, I really enjoyed it. But when I started it I was preparing for this crazy violent show. And not that it wasn't. I mean the car door and the spike scene were both wild. But honestly those were the only scenes that reach TV-MA territory in my opinion. Agents of Shield literally had scenes including decaptitation, skulls getting crushed, a rib being torn out, dissection, dismemberment and these were seasons that had a TV-PG rating. I know it's different cuz that aired on network TV and not Netflix but in my eyes Shield was more violent than Daredevil. Shield had multiple moments where I squirmed (although I watched it before Daredevil) and Daredevil barely made me flinch in terms of violence. Anyone else feel the same way or just me?

You would think, with daredevil being canon, and then there was infinity war, there would be some reference to the snap. Born again is supposed to be a grounded story, however, shouldn’t we see the aftermath of half of the population disappearing? I would love to see how Matt, Fisk, and Castle dealt with the snap. I would love to see the chaos in between… Actually, before going to that, after season three of Netflix Daredevil, why is Fisk out? How is he free to roam the Earth? Would not Matt try to make sure Fisk would stay in prison at some point? But fine, let’s put that aside, I want to see traumatic, traumatic, traumatic flashbacks of the time during the snap and seeing what the characters did. I imagine the snap gave the opportunity for someone like Fisk to get out of prison and to develop an empire. But I want to see Matt, and Frank, Hawkeye go nuts on the criminal world during the snap - Where rule of law went out the window. What do you guys think?

Spoilers for anyone who hasn’t seen Netflix’s daredevil season three ending. What the hell happened to the deal that Fisk and Matt had? It was that Fisk stayed in jail and didn’t try to get out at Matt. Wouldn’t try to have Vanessa prosecuted for ordering the hit of agent Nadeem? So how is Fisk just walking around with no problems, becoming mayor, and Matt is just OK with it? Netflix DD is now canon in the MCU. So what happened? Plot hole🕳️ (don’t get me wrong. I just try ignore it too lol.)

Not his finest moment.

Though to be fair, I don't remember Joy being so hostile with Colleen up to that point.

I know not a lot of people liked Iron Fist, but I really enjoyed the show, especially season 2. Danny and Colleen’s dynamic is one of my favourites in all of the Netflix Marvel shows, I think they deserve the chance to come back into the greater MCU. I specifically want Finn Jones to be able to prove people wrong about him, so much of what went wrong about Iron Fist was out of his control, yet he gets most of the blame from audiences.

The show could have been about Misty and Colleen setting up Knightwing Restorations Ltd. And the main villains should have been Ferocia, Bushmaster, Mariah and Shades with sub villains like Constrictor and Tombstone.

In case nobody knows who Ferocia is, in the comics she’s an extra dimensional werewolf from K’un-Lin who killed Danny’s mother after their plane crashed. While wandering lost in the snow outside of K’un-Lun, the Rands were chased by a pack of wolves and Danny’s mom threw herself into the pack to let them devour her giving him a chance to escape to the city and eventually become the Iron Fist. They could have easily retconned a bit of the backstory saying that Danny repressed the memories of his mother being killed in the crash to seeing her killed by wolves. It would definitely help explain some of his more manic episodes since he was dealing with this extreme trauma.

She is such a sweet woman.

How is Kingpin out of prison? Why did Bullseye kill Foggy? What happened during the last 7 years?

I assumed that since the landscape is remarkably different than the last episode of the Netflix show, they would have to show flashbacks to show us how things changed.

Every episode that goes by kind of makes me feel like they are just gonna roll with it. Was I off base thinking they'd definitely give us explanations for the past?

like they should have initially approached born again as a season 4 or continuation of the netflix series, instead of a reboot. they tried going with a reboot approach, and then when they saw footage of the original born again, then they realized it sucked. and so revised/rewrite the script to make it better, but they had to do it really quickly.

Does he, uh…

Does he actually believe his bullshit?

Like, we know more than he does. We know exactly how badly The Hand was using him, he had no clue about the plan to destroy New York. He didn’t even know that he was working with two pieces of The Hand let alone that he never heard a word about the leader. If not for DD and company he’d be entirely washed out by the people he thought worked for him.

But that rant. Holy shit was that new. I thought he was excusing his barbarism, because he was deludedly dreaming of a future NYC without things that offend him. Things like poor people, noise or life. But he…. thinks that he’s the hero? That running drugs, guns, human trafficking and committing barehanded gruesome murder when someone speaks out of turn, that’s him being a hero. That killing Mrs. Cardenas would make life better for the working class.

He knew that Madame Gao had an army of blind people manufacturing drugs. And that was the path of righteousness. He believes that he’s done nothing wrong?

Side note: I hate that little boy in his office.
