Marvel Cinematic Universe
It's kind of hard to imagine that what started only 7 years ago has transformed into such a monumental juggernaut of a franchise. I figured with Avengers: Age of Ultron on the horizon and the Netflix experiment with Daredevil less than a month away it would be fun to start a dedicated thread to the idea. So, for fans of the Marvel movies/ TV shows/ comics, what do you like the most, what are your hopes or theories for the universe?

I'm kind of okay with that too, because one of the biggest questions I've always had relating to this experiment is are they big enough to go small? It's evident they've been wondering that too with the Netflix series' and I think the partnership is a great fit, as it gives some characters that don't fit into the more family oriented mold of the big movies, time out in the spotlight, even if it's just on the television screen. |

Hell ya, perfect casting. Anything with this guy is great.

I'm mostly happy with the casting choices for Daredevil although I was holding out hope that Rosario Dawson would be playing Misty Knight. I am still hoping the character shows up because she's one of the coolest Marvel characters, but I suppose it would make more sense for her to show up in Iron Fists' Netflix show.

Of course, in the end this is probably just going to be an unintentionally hilarious cluster****.

You should check out the 3rd volume of Heroes for Hire for some fun Misty action. There's some hilariously awful malegaze pandering, with one particularly egregious cover, but there's also some great panels showing just how much ass she kicks. They are but it's with Benedict Cumberbatch. |
