I Went To A Family Reunion Today And Had Such A Strange Time?

Daredevil. Vol. 4 #10 (2014)

Mark Waid | Chris Samnee

my matt murdock fixation literally ate the entire month of march.

they should make words that can properly communicate The Feeling of when youre thinking about The Character and its.

^these dont even fully express it. its insaner. they need to make a word for it

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.

this is so true! i also think it was really hard for frank to see matt like that. like his fire had gone out. he does have respect for daredevil, and seeing him so broken must have been so disconcerting.

even saying all the terrible pointed things he said, you could see how wounded frank was.

No but the way Frank didn’t want Matt to leave, thinking of sth new to say every time he turned to walk out and then looking empty af once Matt actually left??? Frank‘s so damn lonely, sitting in that dark basement surrounded by only guns, hit maps and the memories of his family. 😭

charlie cox has the worlds kindest eyes and sweetest smile. someone needs to sedate me

Matt and Frank: *just act as usual*

Me:

doing a quick drawing of matt murdock to try and quell the all consuming thoughts of him. it is not working 🫡

The best part, imo, of both of today's eps is not Matt finally putting the Daredevil suit on, nor Fisk starting to snap, nor Muse finally getting screen time, and not even the shit ton of symbolism (religious and otherwise) smacking you in the face.

It's that Yusuf Khan watched Matt beat up a banker robber and then unlock a bank vault, and was like "I am gonna mind my own fucking business I don't want any more information about this Thank You Very Much!"

the urge to ignore my unfinished commissions and flash art to only draw matt murdock and matt murdock only.

if anyone in quebec happens to want a daredevil tattoo i would do it for free 😭😭😭

Which is the greater, more devastating MCU New York tragedy:

Loki's Invasion during The Avengers,

or

Matt Murdock having his ass out as he walked home from the hospital but it's during a blackout so no one got the privilege of seeing the devil's cake?

I know my answer 🤷🏻‍♀️

(To give an idea of what New York couldn't see 💔 Extensive evidence below: )
