Dare Devil: Born Again
« on: 20 January 2025, 19:08:19 »
Disney dropped a trailer . . . and I have to wonder if this series, with the Netflix characters returning, is not an attempt to boost their MCU streaming by returning to the roots of the first serial even if it was produced by another company..  Per reports they tossed what they were going to release last year

The trailer LOOKs good . . . we still have Vincent as Fisk, and they address the continuity gap as a set up for a classic storyline.  We get a look at Frank still hiding in the shadows.  We will have to wait to see if the fight scenes are as tight as the original Dare Devil.

Guess March 3 will tell.

 . . . I blame the 2 y/o beating up the 8 y/o for the distraction, hitting done before I really was so the post did not get lost.

I'd hope it would be good..  BUT i won't hold my breath.
It's not who you kill, but how they die!
You can't shoot what you can't see.
You can not dodge it if you don't know it's coming.

"cautiously optimistic" when it comes to Daredevil. But that is like everything now.

Same. Marvel is just so bad now I'm wary about anything that might be good.

I did have a thought on this that I'll be curious to see handled.

Matt has apparently been retired from costumed vigilantism for a bit now, based on his conversation with Fisk. A line was crossed, etc., and he's not Daredevil these days. Which makes sense, and I look forward to seeing how they handle that (I have theories on what prompted him to walk away, specifically that he killed the  man who killed Foggy- I think that brief shot of Matt, Foggy, and Karen was a flashback to the night Foggy died.). Whatever the reason, Matt isn't in costume anymore.

...you know, except for when he was in She-Hulk. Which was, based on timeline, pretty recent. So...

But hey, that was a goofy little side thing, and maybe his appearance there isn't canon somehow, with a nice easy explanation about how he-

-oh, the yellow suit from the show is in his closet-o-suits at the end of the trailer. Hmmmm.

I'm sure there's a plan for that plot hole, but for now it feels very much like there's some explaining to do.
