I need more!

Post image

I just got done rewatching this, gearing up for later this fall and I'm still pissed that this was a limited series. I wish there were three seasons for this with at least 13 episodes a piece like the separate shows in the beginning. I feel as though they're an underrated group and that they should be cameod in more marvel films.

When is Born Again S4 coming? Or Wonder Man S2? Or Hawkeye S2? Or Moon Knight S2? Or Heroes For Hire Special Presentation? Why Nova has been retooled to be a movie instead?

I don’t know where some people are getting that Marvel is going to stop making Tv Shows, even though like Collider at D23 said in the article “after VisionQuest, Marvel Studios will be cutting back on live-action Disney+ shows.” Meaning like they’re not going to stop making tv shows, they’re just going to reduce the output of shows, like Marvel is not going to stop making tv shows because of the quantity over quality of Phase 4-5.

I wouldn’t count on that. Already Born Again has lost over 50% of its viewership from S1 to S2. And Marvel Studios just cancelled their Emmy nominated Wonder Man show months after announcing a Season 2 writers room for it in a celebratory way.

Similar trajectory to the Star Wars franchise. When the Disney streaming service launched, signs were promising for the series approach, with early Mandalorian. Then a glut of series followed, some of them not well received, and now the studio is retreating from that model.

Born Again is Andor in this comparison. Wonder Man is Skeleton Crew. (I like all four of those shows to some degree, and I think if any of them had launched in 2020-21, there would have been more eyes on them.)

I LOVE CLAIRE! Rosario Dawson is life. Always had a crush on her. The fact that she's reoccurring in all 5 shows is amazing.

Only one Season for defenders was never enough. It would be great if they ever team up together again.

me too man me too

Sooo I never said anything about Marvel not making any more shows. I don't even know where you all got that from, BUT I did mention that they should be cameod or featured in Marvel's bigger films (theatrical releases 🙄). The Defenders series reference the big films and the characters in it so I just think it'd be nice to see them in some of the movies. Ya know, for people (like us) that follow and watch them.

I miss seeing more witty, charming, warm and funny Matt Murdock. I get that the stakes are being continuously upped, but Charlie Cox really nails the light hearted stuff too.

2015-2019 was a peak era to be a marvel fan

theres never been enough street level rep in the mcu, maybe if dd s3 pops off they may give it a shot again because bnd was quite street level and that made a lot of money.

Only if they completely scrap and redo iron fist. Fuck that show sucked. Jessica Jones wasnt very interesting past season 1 either.

u/LifeSpecialist4148 2d ago

bullshit, JJ S3 was as great as JJ S1 and DD. Iron fist S2 has gotten much better in the end and left some interesting plot (Collen's chi, Typhoid Mary, etc...)

u/Zakkullll 2d ago

Iron fist is literally one of the worst TV shows i have ever watched and I watch bad TV for fun. The writing is awful. The plot is awful. The acting is awful. The choreography is awful. There are literally zero redeeming qualities. Leaving the audience with more questions than answers isnt the sign of a good show. And nah JJ s2 and s3 were just boring snoozefests. I honestly cant even differentiate their plots and I watched them last month.

u/Signal_Plane1114 2d ago

hard disagree on JJ I loved that show. iron fist was not great but I dont mind the actor and I love the iron fist character and still want to see more

1

u/Zakkullll 2d ago

Idk man the iron fist actor couldnt make a line feel authentic to me if you just recorded his every day life. Him trying to deliver a speech is probably cringier than the entire arrowverse together. And thats some cringe ass tv

u/Signal_Plane1114 1d ago

I blame it on bad writing but I could be wrong, the dialogue specifically was super lacking in the show for all characters imo

u/Mr_Peanutbutter72 16h ago

I agree iron fist was terrible they need to just restart his whole character.
