I Have Decided To Dip My Toes Into The Fandom

Two (2) Matties because I like him

me after seeing matt’s beaten eyes, hearing heather saying “no i saved myself” and her view of vigilantes, then vanessa killing adam, matt yelling to his lying client, foggy’s name mentioned more than it ever been this season, matt cooing SWEETHEART to dex wtf, matt grabbing dex’s hair, a man’s getting FRIED, MATT GOT SHOT

BASICALLY EVERY 5 MINS ON THIS EPISODE it’s just keep going i swear I MEAN WHAT THE FUCK

i literally cannot stand sister maggie. i do not think she deserves forgiveness from matt. i know he has to give it to her to reconcile with his faith and everything, but the way she treats him especially at the start of s3? she’s so unhelpful and cruel.

sure, you could argue that it was “tough love”, and that he needed the push, but seriously there had to be better ways to go about it.

i know my takes can seem too black/white for what’s actually going on, but while i understand her character and the intricacies of the story, i really believe that she does not deserve his or our forgiveness.

maybe i just want to see matt loved in a way that doesn’t hurt…

frank castle having a civilized interview with a therapist is objectively the funniest thing i can imagine.

is this too much to ask for 😭

I really really want a daredevil sitcom that’s just Karen, Matt, and Foggy doing shit and then it occasionally cuts to daredevil beating the shit out of someone with no context, then back to Matt dropping a cup and getting shit on by Foggy

DDBA SPOILERS!!! (episodes 1-2)

okay i have thoughts and none of them are in order and some aren’t very developed, but here they are so far:

-to start off positive, i like how matt’s blindness is being portrayed, maybe more than in the original. it shows how he is in fact visually impaired and that when he focuses on other things specifically he is affected by his blindness. (for example: episode 2 when he’s focusing on footsteps and almost gets hit by a cab)

-right off the bat, i knew we weren’t gonna get what we had in the original series. the opening shots and dialogue were too bright and clinical in my opinion, as is pretty common with disney.

-while the actors did an amazing job imo, the way it’s being filmed just lacks the grit and depth of the original series.

-that being said; matt crying on the roof did have me crying too, charlie cox is such an incredibly talented actor and even despite the flaws that opening scene had, he managed to pull me in and get me to care.

-there are moments and choices being made that i do like, and i’m sure i’ll enjoy the show even with the disappointing parts

-matt being framed in red light at the end of the first episode and the fight at the end of episode two that resulted with his daredevil yell were the most dynamic and classically daredevil moments and they give me hope

-also i was almost unable to pay attention to a single second of it because of how absolutely soulcrushingly and devastatingly attractive matt murdock is. it’s actually ridiculous.

*TLDR: i found the first two episodes of born again to be a bit disappointing and not living up to the standards that we have come to know and love from daredevil. that being said; through the amazing acting from charlie cox and the maintaining of matt murdock’s character, as well as some promising new characters and arcs, i’m sure it still will be an enjoyable watch.

i live in quebec, all of my advertisements on disney+ are in french. I’m usually alright with the dubs, even if they’re a bit inaccurate to the original actors voices.

recently i’ve been getting ads for The Amateur (L’Amatuer) and seeing Jon Bernthal and hearing him dubbed in french is the funniest shit i’ve ever heard

idk what it is about him that makes it feel so wrong, but French Bernthal now lives rent free in my head

on season 2 of making my mother watch daredevil;

she is OUTRAGED that they ditched the karen/foggy storyline. honestly i can’t blame her
