Marvel's Netflix Universe: Return of the Kingpin

Wow, just finished the first episode, hoping he gets even better as a fighter. He took on a few mooks, but had trouble against one pro (who got out pro’d). Didn’t realize like the entire show is out, lol

Show itself seems too good to be true, lol. Loving Foggy, and Karen seems perfect as well. Wasn’t digging Matt in early stuff I was seeing, but once I saw him here, he quickly grew on me. He does blind quite well (my best friend’s cousin was Jeff Healey, so I got to see blind occasionally lol).

Show is grim as fuck, I have a feeling we’re going some fun places…Can’t wait to watch more.

162

So far the Mr Fisk Sr is fucking awesome.

163

I watched up to episode 10

[spoiler=]I was wrong about this show when it comes to the Kingpin. Man they’ve done a masterful job in humanizing the Kingpin. It has me almost rooting for guy. Papa Fisk is a real douche and I chuckled how his wife didn’t beat an eye when Wilson hammered him to death. I wish his origin episode dived into how he got into crime. I feel that was the only thing that was missing

Damn you’re already ep 10? Did you even sleep? lol

Just started watching and done with ep 1. Agree with you all that DD has to start rough when it comes to fighting since he is basically a rookie.

When they were checking out the office, the lady said that it was not harmed during the “incident” where death was falling out of the sky. This confirms that DD is part of MCU?

165

Yes, along with other lines and incidents. There is also a clear tie to SHIELD in a nice nod.

166

I’m on episode 11, finishing this shit tonight.
Wilson Fisk was done masterfully and the entire cast was amazing.

Srsly gonna be bummed waiting for next season.
Also if you watched the trailers you would know it’s officially part of the mcu.

167

did you even pay attention at all? all of this is part of the mcu, they reference the aliens and invasion.

168

Kinda hard to pay attention while watching at work and alt tabbing that shit. Will have to watch it again at home.

169

Yeao, Loeb confirmed its the same guy from Agents of Shield.

170

Creel or senator ward?

171

Creel, he must have edited when I quoted.

Also if I get a Punisher show along with the already coming Iron Fist. I will be a happy man.

172

on episode 3…is that ben urich??

173

Yes.

174

I had the day off and nothing better to do. Perfect for binging.

175

I was kinda disappointed they didn’t have the rights to the bugle by the time they did the first episode. Marvel gonna rape Sony in the Spidey deal lol.

They never officially stated the incident was the Avengers incident… :wink:

176

Um yeah they do.

177

srk nerds failing at being nerds

178

Just finished up the series, very nicely done. I was a little skeptical on Fisk being portrayed as a good guy doing bad stuff, but that wrapped up nicely. All in all great show, great fight scenes, and Stick is based. Season 2 has SO much potential since they barely even scratched the DD mythos.

179

First time I saw fisk on that scene I was like, wow he’s kinda smooth. Then he got cockblocked by that stupid russian. He’s one angry and tough motherfucker.

180

Finished the series

[spoiler=]I’m pissed that Urich was killed off. He’s an essentially member of the DD’s supporting cast and he had important story ties to Jessica Jones and Spider-Man who Marvel can legally use now. I liked Vondie Curtis-Hall as been Ben too.

Old lady Gao is definitely from K’un-L’un.[/spoiler]
