Shadow_Walker Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 I think for fight scenes the best series is Banshee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqRPaucl8r4
MrMat Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Whats the show like? Really quite good! I binged watched them all over the weekend and enjoyed every minute. Up there as one of the best comic book adaptations in my opinion.
DalekSec Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 watched all 13 episode's in 24 hours ( I hate Netflix sometimes ) highly recommended Daredevil to anyone! best show I have seen In awhile, and I have seen breaking bad and the like
stevenlong1985 Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Yeah I watched it all day Friday! I was hooked and want more!
LeMarchand Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 I seem to be in the minority! Admittedly only seen the first part so far, but struggled to stay awake. Plus it seemed to be that the makers were taking the "dark" tone a bit too literally. I think I preferred the Ben Affleck version (or to be more honest, the Jennifer Garner version).
DanTheLacky Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Someone advised me to watch it yesterday, didn't think that much of the film but will atleast take a look at the series.
DMcGuigan Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 I loved it, started Friday night, finished it about lunchtime on Saturday.. Didn't sleep much I went in not expecting much after the film, but I thought it was massive improvement.
Carter Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Really liking it so far. I've watched this scene a number of times over.

Yeah I had heard good things but thought the film was pretty awful so didn't expect much either, watched the first episode last night and it's best thing I've seen for a while so will see how far I get with it this week
sparkeh Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I think for fight scenes the best series is Banshee. Nothing beats Old Boy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmWo7m3zhZs 1
featured_spectre Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 At least he shows signs of fatigue unlike other superheroes that seemingly fight for ages with no sign of fatigue (green arrow for one).
LeMarchand Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 At least he shows signs of fatigue unlike other superheroes that seemingly fight for ages with no sign of fatigue (green arrow for one). That's one of the things that made the movie stand out to me: there was a scene where DD/MM returns home after a patrol visibly hurt and pops a load of pain killers.
Little-Miss Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Nothing beats Old Boy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmWo7m3zhZs THANK YOU! Was just about to post this.
rickjames Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Watched it all over Friday/Saturday, absolutely loved it. Not read the comics (or much Marvel, but I generally 'get it') but as a casual viewer you can just tune in, get a bit of the origin and go from there. D'Onoforio as Fisk is great, super intense. Show sticks out from the rest of the MCU/TV like a sore thumb and it's better off for it. Immediately when I was watching that scene I just thought of The Raid, in an interview the showrunners said they took inspiration from that and Oldboy.
MrMat Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 D'Onoforio as Fisk is great, super intense. Show sticks out from the rest of the MCU/TV like a sore thumb and it's better off for it. Agreed! Fisk is fantastic throughout, he's a great villain. 'That' scene with the Russian is amazing. Generally i think it was well cast and well acted. Bob Gunton as Leland in particular was pretty great. Literally the only one I wasn't a huge fan of initially was Foggy (Elden Henson according to Wiki) but I did eventually warm towards him too.
Little-Miss Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I sat for ages trying to work out who the hell was playing Fisk. Blummin Law and Order dude..
DMcGuigan Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I sat for ages trying to work out who the hell was playing Fisk. Blummin Law and Order dude.. He played Private Pyle from Full Metal Jacket as well, that's where I recognised him from.
sparkeh Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 He played Private Pyle from Full Metal Jacket as well, that's where I recognised him from. And Edgar in 'Men in Black'
DMcGuigan Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 And Edgar in 'Men in Black' I don't remember that one.. to googles! EDIT: Ah! Roach man, okay, I know now
rickjames Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Also Elden Henson was in The Mighty Ducks, that is all.
DMcGuigan Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Also Elden Henson was in The Mighty Ducks, that is all. Cannot unsee.
