If you wanna run away with me, I know a galaxy
And I can take you for a ride
I had a premonition that we fell into a rhythm
Where the music don't stop for life
Glitter in the sky, glitter in my eyes
Shining just the way I like
If you're feeling like you need a little bit of company
You met me at the perfect time
You want me, I want you, baby
My sugarboo, I'm levitating
The Milky Way, we're renegading
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I got you, moonlight
You're my starlight
I need you all night
Come on, dance with me

I believe that you're for me, I feel it in our energy
I see us written in the stars
We can go wherever, so let's do it now or never
Baby, nothing's ever, ever too far

Shining just the way we are
I feel like we're forever every time we get together
But whatever, let's get lost on Mars

Danny’s appearance in Luke Cage was the first time I saw the character and thought, “That. That’s Danny Rand. That’s the Iron Fist.” The zen chill bro that is constantly snacking, wanting to help people, and annoyingly teaching everyone he comes across about zen teachings when nobody asked. It shows that he totally could have been a great Iron Fist, but never really got the chance.
The exact same problem that made people blame Andrew Garfield for the failure of the Amazing Spider-Man films. Then, No Way Home came up and showed everyone Garfield can be just as scene-stealing as Maguire, if given the right script and directing.
I will agree 100% that Finn Jones has natural charisma - in the scenes where they let Danny be chill Danny: The beginning of ep1, the restaurant scene in "Defenders", his appearance in "Luke Cage" and his last two scenes of "Iron Fist S2." He's charming as hell, but instead they mostly wrote Danny to be some angry, undisciplined man-child who had trouble summoning his chi. (which was never not funny in a "he couldn't get it up" kinda way, which is never good for your hero)
I think Finn Jones a decent actor, but Danny Rand just isn't the right character to be Iron Fist. The truth is Iron Fist is about Asian Americans in NYC and their culture a voice, just like Luke Cage gives Harlem a voice, and so for the Iron Fist to be the typical rich white boy savior who gets the mystical Asian powers while all the people who have thousands of years of history don't is just not going to cut it, that is why Lin Lie or an entirely new Asian Iron Fist is the way to go. Davos was actually cool though but season 2 ruined him even more.
@@ghostbravo7127 If you're going to go that route, then Iron Fist should actually represent "all the people who have thousands of years of history" and shouldn't be American at all, let alone from NYC.
@@BenChanNYC Lin Lie is not from NYC, Lin Lie is the Iron Fist born in Shanghai he travels throughout Asia as a descendant of Fu Xi with his sword and eventually after many battles and a lot of training he finally comes to the test to become the Iron Fist. He is a man of many cultures and both a natural born protector, and one who has trained his way to worthiness. He eventually ends up in NYC but he operates across Asia and spends most of his life there. They are going to do Agents of Atlas so it only makes sense to bring in Lin Lie.
yeah i never understood why they didnt do an asian iron fist. probably te easiest character to make asian - and rhey didnt
@@ghostbravo7127 Iron Fist IS a typical white boy mastering Asian martial arts. PERIOD. That's the character. Get over it.
I absolutely love Luke Cage. There's so much you could dive into with that show. Every character has a rich history and story. The vibe of the show is completely different. Harlem feels alive. It's as much of a character as Luke. Absolutely love it.
I didn't hate Iron Fist, or Fin Jones as Danny. They stumbled at first, but they started getting him right overtime. One of my favorite characters in that show is Ward. Danny and Ward's relationship, especially in season 2, was very well done. Both were recovering addicts who used to repress pain and their own lack of identity.
These shows were beautiful. Not without faults of course, but when I hear The Defenders get brought up I only hear about Daredevil. All of these characters deserve to have their story told.
I liked Jessica Jones. The first season, the one that actually had a villain. I also liked both seasons of Punisher, even though it was flawed from the get go and it left a lot of ideas on the table, Jon Bernthal was great. Rest.. meh.. first season of Luke Cake. Iron Fist was a disaster. So.. meh.
@@halycon404 None of these shows are perfect. Comic book shows and movies rarely are. It's easy to dismiss Iron Fist because the show was poorly planned and poorly executed. And it's easy to dismiss Like Cage if you didn't connect with the material, characters, and themes. But each of these characters could have a larger place and role in the MCU. Even if that story is to just show a street level MCU adventure. That's worth telling. Just to be able to round out the wilder side of marvel and tell stories with more mature themes.
Luke Cage season 2 needs more love. So many didn't watch it, but it is so good. Glad you're taking a deeper look at these shows.
@Paraone Ngatai I couldn't even finish first season of luke cage, second season was actually good because imo the reduced the amount of luke cage,he was terrible ,the other characters were great in season 2,also cottonmouth was great first season
didn't even liked luck cage himself his debut was just fucking jessica jones lmao
I wish we could’ve had a Defenders season 2 but it’s the others having to go against Cage cause of his taking things too far (best I can do without spoilers)
The fact that this doesn’t have a million views is criminal. We live in a day and age where the 3,000th MCU theory video about Mephisto will be spread everywhere but an actual deep look at the Netflix shows that isn’t just “eh daredevil and punisher were all right the rest were whatever AND I HATE FINN JONES EVEN IF I HAVENT WATCHED THE SHOW.” We need more of this. Disney CANT be done with these characters OR the actors
If Daredevil is any indicator, we might get some other Netflix actors back.
Think Kristen said she was done with Jessica Jones, though. Not sure about Finn or the others.
@@TimedRevolver Clearly not since she was supposed to come back for Born Again. Mike Colter did say that luke cage is kind of behind him now, but he isn't completely closed off to the idea. And Finn Jones have openly stated he wants to reattempt the character with actual good writing
@@L_Lawliet1907 I recall her saying before that she was done with Jessica.
But people can change their minds.
Two really underrated shows finally getting acknowledged
NGL I had to force myself to watch Iron Fist
Definitely with you on liking IF more than everyone else, I got the show. I really liked Ward, he was very interesting and well played. Entrenched fandoms can be so toxic over literally nothing.
I stand with Finn!
100% agreed
Yes, like sure I wasn't around when they first aired so I got to go in with a fresh mind the people maybe didn't have then, but I really enjoyed my time with IF, it really doesn't deserve all the unnecessary hate it gets
@Paraone Ngatai I really dug IF season 1; but after all the complaining and when I started season 2 where Danny halts down the baddies truck, they actually stop, and then derp, he's got nothing until they start the truck again and try to run him over; I was all: "oh, damn, the writings over; it's going to be Punisher dumb" and gave up on it.
I just really hope we get to see more from Colleen. She was the best part of the Iron Fist series and the fact that the actress loves the role and wants to do more makes me all the more hopeful. Great video as always! Much respect.
that intro was beautiful oh my god
I feel like they should give Danny rand an actual shot, this is exactly what happened with mcu quicksilver, he was never given an actual shot
I was so gutted when Luke Cage was canned. I was excited to see where they’d take Luke as a crime lord and Nightshade as his rival. It had potential.
A question for you and everyone else who sees this: Do you want the Netflix Marvel shows to come back on Disney +?
My initial response when I first saw Matt in No Way Home was "HELL YEAH DAREDEVIL SEASON 4! GIVE IT TO ME NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!" But the more I think about it, the less I want it. I just can't see them doing those shows justice on Disney +.
They were never going to do a season 4 because it's not MCU canon. Plus it's been stated that the MCU is at the beginning stages of working on Daredevil season 1 for Disney+
They are allowing tv ma content on it so it could happen.
Loved them ALL (even Iron Fist_ bring 'em ALL back. The Iron Fist supporting actors were great. I agree the character was unreasonably angry and innocent; equally. By the end, I wanted to see the next story finding the previous Iron Fist ...Randall. Plus, after all the strife, he just hands over the "mantle" to his ex-girlfriend (which I HATE). I liked 65% of the whole.
@@Fourmath they said that it's canon up to season 2 not 3
@@nicholasflame_4796 not Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios
I found Iron Fist S1 okay, but LOVED Colleen. I actually really had a blast with S2 and was devasted when it was cancelled given the cliffhanger. Same with Luke Cage.
Luke Cage’s second season will always be tied with Daredevil as the best Netflix Marvel has to offer. Great villains, a solid soundtrack, pretty good fights, and a pretty good take on race for a superhero show
Nah
Daredevil
Jessica Jones S1
Luke Cage
punisher over luke cage easily
I agree with you. Bushmaster was probably the second best Netflix/Marvel hero after Kingpin
@Rizzo 215iron fist was received the worst with luke cage not far behind. jessica jones s1 was good but the rest werent. i liked all the shows but if we’re talking from a majority view, it went daredevil punisher jessica jokes luke cage and iron fist
@@KevinTheChung I mean the majority can have their way but it doesn’t change my opinion
People usually just talk about Daredevil and Punisher (barely according to lack CZcams videos on it) and leave out Luke Cage and Iron Fist along with Jessica Jones and that’s honestly disrespectful to the highest, yes some are better than others but those shows need breakdowns as well, they’re worth it and more, the characters are all colorful and interesting
So thank you for representing
Thank you for the first 6.5 minutes. I didn't think Iron Fist was perfect, but I thought you broke down the core of the story really well - and Finn Jones' interview in particular, breaking down the transitional arc of his character, shows more depth than most viewers give the show credit for.
I wonder if mike Cutler would be open to coming back as Luke Cage. It was amazing casting
agreed
I agree with you.
He's recently stated in an interview that the opportunity to play as Luke cage is kind of in the "rearview mirror" and he's sort of ready to pass on the mantle/role, but probably not shut off the idea itself.
Iron Fist and Luke cage S2 were huge improvements and I really hope we see Mary Walker again (who was rumored to show up in DD season 4). Like you mentioned, I think the retcons will happen with whomever was snapped. Already in Hawkeye it could take shape as matt murdock got snapped allowing FIsk to get out of jail and rebuild his empire. I do hope everyone is eventually brought back in a way that works well and doesn't completely negate what came before. Heroes for Hire and/or a Daughters of the Dragon show would be tight af.
30 minutes of diving into shows that were wildly underappreciated ??? What more could we ask for
I hope they give all the actors from Luke Cage and Iron Fist another chance, they were all good, especially Jessica Henwick as Collen Wing
Im honestly more confused why Luke Cage doesn’t get as much attention either cuz it was such a good series to me but it seems to be ignored
My best guess is it's because it was not a Disney series and people have short attention spans/memories.
Seeing as Netflix Marvel stuff is basically done, there's nothing keeping the characters out there for people to take further notice of.
No movies, no episodes they can watch along with whatever Disney's new flavor of the month show is, etc.
Which is sad since Daredevil and Luke Cage where both so well done and I think we'd all love to see more of this section of the MCU.
Don't tell me they cancelled Luke Cage cuz of Cotton mouth.
@@mandodelorian4668 its not that. people were annoyed with the show cause they felt that the show was unoriginal, it was slow, some people thought Danny was dumb, and had terrible fight scenes.
@@darkmyro It was cancelled because Netflix stopped their partnership with Disney, where did you get your information from?
@@Patrick-pc3vq I wasn't talking about the cancellation of the show, I was talking about how iron fist was received. I got the information from rotten tomatoes, I mean I'm not sure id believe the scores on rotten tomatoes, but it can be a good aggregate of how people feel about the show. There was a lot of critics complaining that the show was was slow and unoriginal, a few complaining about Danny being dumb for some reason or another, and some people complaining the fight scenes weren't great. I think I even remember people complaining they though Danny was entitled.
You are right it wasn't canceled for those reasons, but I wasn't talking about that.
Also I realize now they weren't talking about iron fist, but I sometimes watch CZcams half asleep and my brain isn't working on all cylinders. That being said, a common complaint across all the shows is they can be a little slow and the fight scenes aren't great( except for daredevil). personally I'm fine with slow burns( if they are entertaining enough and not super super long) and I've enjoyed what I've seen so far of the Netflix mcu( I've only seen up to defenders).
When Iron Fist got cancelled, I was okay with it but all the air in my lungs left when I heard Luke Cage got cancelled. I understand that Iron Fist had a lot against it but…I really hated the show.
Me with DD. I was so psyched to see Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye.
@@ItsMeBarnaby I never watched season two. I hated the show that much. That said, I hope everyone involved had been able to go on to other jobs. I know Michael Coulter has.
I love Iron Fist and I love Finn Jones.. so much potential. Bring back Finn Jones for Iron Fist!
That's right! Give Finn Jones a shine and give him justice.
He needs another chance.
I loved Luke Cage and I knew no one would appreciate it at the time tbh, but maybe just maybe it will get some respect and love. Iron Fist season 2 is the only season I resonate with personally. Luke Cage I loved both seasons.
The pistols at the end of Iron Fist were the best part of the show to me. Full Orson Randall moment.
As much as I didn't like the casting at first, now I kinda feel bad for Finn Jones (esp after that clip in the beginning, gross). Irl he's so much more like Danny Rand that I can see why they cast him, but it barely shows at all on screen. I think the difference is that now I'm starting to understand that a lot of the times when an actor underperforms its bc of the director, and this was a prime example.
I love this video. This was great. I want to say that I currently have watched about 63% of the Marvel/Netflix Universe with The Punisher show included. You have given a different dynamic and now I want to go back and watch them altogether! There are so many pieces I missed, but this video inspires me to rewatch again for n it’s entirety.
I keep forgetting you're a smaller CZcamsr. Don't get discouraged over a video not being popular. If you pick a topic you're passionate about others will naturally be attracted to it too. I really love your content, even your Punisher video, absolutely loved it. Keep doing what you're doing. I look forward seeing your channel grow!
This video made me want to rewatch both of these series tbh! These characters deserve way more love than they received.
I was very happy with the approach in Iron Fist. I felt he shouldn't start out on third base halfway to home. It was good that he was young and immature coming to America and learning stuff the hard way. I was looking forward to seeing him slowly mature and become less rash.
The only thing I disagree with is giving him only 3 weeks to learn martial arts and then not letting him wear a mask so they could substitute in a qualified stuntman like they did for Daredevil. That was dumb dumb dumb dumb.
Finn Jones apologist!!
But really, Iron Fist is one of my favorite characters. Even though he's a product of cheesy 70s Kung fu films, I always found Iron Fist interesting. I had unrealistic expectations, I think we all did. Maybe Iron fist would be best used in small doses, like a co or supporting character.
Can't wait for Heros for hire on D+... its happening...eventually
We’ll get the announcement sometime in the summer! I’m sure of it!
Then go work at Marvel Studio and make Marvel's Heroes for Hire and bring both Finn Jones and Mike Colter back, give them to shine and give them justice.
First (Ayy Iron Fist video finally :)
Finn Jones in Luke Cage season 2 is literally the perfect Iron Fist. It's a shame development hell caught this series since Iron Fist is my favorite "street level" hero
i was for sure the few who loved iron fist and the striy if a lost child trying to find his purpose and the love story between him and coling but upon learning why no one liked fin jones it was a bit more understanding
u are UNDERRATED AF! keep making this content!
I can honestly say I really enjoyed watching every season of every marvel netflix show.
they all felt really distinct and unique. also the casting is just incredible
Finn: Danny is wrought with trauma
Leo: Did someone say TRAUMA? I think a video is in order.
This is my new comfort channel
love the whole defenders cast. ironfist needs his costume next round.
Honestly, out of all of these shows, I want Iron Fist to come back the most. It had the most untapped potential out of all of them. And deserved redemption. AND THAT CLIFFHANGER! *GUN FU!!!*
Good to hear someone who enjoyed the Cage series as much as I did. Everyone who saw it is just like, “Meh it was ok.”
Bro the montage at the end gave me goosebumps
Thanks man I like IronFist in general nice to hear some love. Look at this way dude daredevil IronFist and the others could come back We all love to see Danny again
Great video. Luke Cage (especially S2) is some of the best superhero/comic-book tv that’s been produced
Luke Cage was soo Underrated, S1 was fun enjoyble S2 was Great.
Iron Fist was okay for S1 but S2 was wayy better,
Finn Jones is an okay iron fist but he was Awesome in Luke Cage S2 Episode 10 I do hope he comes back with Mike Colter we need a heroes for hire show
I enjoyed watching these shows. The directions and themes they went into were interesting. I do love both seasons of Luke Cage and the second season of Iron Fist I enjoyed very much. Excellent video
random yt recommendation but loved it 💯 keep the good work up
I actually kinda think the childish anger makes sense for Danny. He’s kinda stuck in his ten year old self and sorta acts like one. And after all that bs he went through, you wouldn’t really expect him to be emotionally stable. Problem is it really clashes with his chill, zen master demeanor. The writers also used it to get him to fight whoever they wanted when he’s supposed to be chill and naive. I would’ve liked it more if they used it more like the comics or more like norse kratos/Matt. Using anger as strength instead of letting it control you. Something I’d expect the monks to teach him (which I’m pretty sure they did). But they really missed an opportunity of him covering his face (like the comic) since he’s very recognizable. And yes, they missed an even bigger opportunity not having Matt or at least showing Foggy defending Luke.
Thank you
I view the loss of Luke Cage season 3 the same way I view the loss of a Hellboy 3, a f'ing tragedy
All his scenes with Luke in Luke cage season 2 made me really like Danny and their dynamic, it’s criminal we didn’t get a hero’s for hire show or at least end Luke cage season 2 with him and Danny starting that group
wonderful takes, thank u for sharing
I'm finally watching iron Fist, enjoying it.
Love all ur videos but this one is super super good
It's such a shame that Finn Jones didn't get to do more with Iron Fist hence all the Marvel-Netflix BS that they him through. Thanks Jeph Loeb and Scott Buck... I really like Danny Rand, when they write him in a positive light. Danny's a fun character when they actually let Finn Jones' charisma shine and not make him an "out-of-nowhere angry, whiny man". Sure, the show is bad (mainly S1), but afterwards, I felt as if they were genuinely trying to make him a good character. I still say, to this day, and will properly defend, that the best representation of Iron Fist/Danny is in Luke Cage S2 episode 10.
However, knowing the "political controversy minefield" that is our nerd culture social media that we live today. I'd highly doubt the love for Finn Jones' return to the MCU is wanted at all, and if so, is niche at best, compared to Charile Cox or Vincent D'onofrio. Even back in the day when Iron Fist was coming out, the whole "White Savior/Whitewashing/Asian Culture Appropriation" controversy was prevalent then, it wouldn't be as different now, but now even more intense knowing the rabid fandom. This also doesn't help that the series is objectively not great in the eyes of the fandom. Knowing Disney-Marvel's PR strategy, they'll definitely take the easy route and either recast a new actor, most likely an Asian Iron Fist or bring back Jessica Henwick as Woman Iron Fist. Either way they choose, this will score even more brownie points than they already have (this is coming from person that the "Cool Kids" on the internet would call: " A Woke SJW"). I'm all for that don't get me wrong, but if it means sacrificing a good character with great comic stories and a good actor when given the right material to work with. Then it be a unfortunate waste... To use a funny racing metaphor, Jones/Danny is a good racer car driver, all he needs is the right car and a reliable pit crew to help him win the metaphorical race.
If I were Kevin Fiege, I would take a big risk with Finn Jones/Danny Rand and bring him to the MCU. I'd make Danny a secondary main character in Shang Chi 2, equal footing with Simu Liu, casting-wise where nobody is superior to the other and are equally strong together and on their own. Have the story in the sequel involve K'un-Lun, as the two martial artists team-up and fight against Davos/Steel Serpent and the Immortal Weapons (I'd love to see the weapons be casted in live action). As they've teamed up before in the comics, notably in DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU OMNIBUS (VOL. 1). Shang and Danny's dynamic could be these two brothers-in-kung fu arms. Sharing a friendly rivalry, while Danny can be this chill little brother to Shang. Their friendship could carry strong positive/heathy masculinity through their supportive brotherly relationship.
All this can be a winning formula for Jones' IF return imo. All they have to do is:
1.) Hard/soft reboot all the negatives aspects from Netflix-Marvel IF S1, while keeping all the good parts (as stated in this video).
2.) Give Finn Jones all the resources, the actual time and training to learn martial arts choreography (maybe bulk him up, however imo, I find his skinny-lean fit appearance to be fitting for someone like Jones. Maybe give him the Robert Pattinson-Batman bod),
3.) Ignore all the political controversy from social media and just rely on the actor's charisma to carry the performance and PR. Have all social media marketing for Jones be him training martial arts choreography, doing all his stunts, working out, and him doing press junkets being "Charismatic Finn Jones" anyways, the internet has short-term memory and will forget this afterwards. Moving on to the next controversy (the exact thing happened with Tilda Swinton and the Ancient One being whitewashed. Now, the Ancient One is beloved character).
4.) WRITE HIM BETTER! (but not as the butt-of-the-joke for the expense of the IF-hate crowd) and just make Iron Fist a good character overall. It worked for Andrew Garfield. Majority disliked the TASM movies and his version of Spiderman/Peter Parker until No Way Home made him now universally loved. This positive reception even clamored for a TASM 3 revival on social media. So if it worked for him, it can work for Finn Jones, if they are willing to gamble on it and put a lot of effort into, which I believe is worth putting.
I loved Season 2 of both Iron Fist and Luke Cage. Felt like massive improvements over their debut seasons.
Wonderful work my friend love your Vids and God do I hope Luke Cage comes back Mike was fantastic in the role
Iron fist was done dirty by writers and directors this character couldve easily had the best show. If done correctly,
I would be cool with the whole case of IF coming back and they just redo the whole thing differently with better writing.
Although its too late, thank you for putting Iron Fists short comings into perspective and admitting you liked it! I liked it too and didnt get all the hate.
I thought this would be 30minutes of you shitting on Iron Fist, but thank you for seeing the bright side of it. I have a serious soft spot for both Finn Jones and Iron Fist. Plus, I'd rather any of the Netflix Marvel shows than having to sit through TFATWS or Hawkeye again.
Danny Rand's character arc
Ironfist season 1
Starts out as a somewhat angry and impetuous kid, trying to find himself , solve the mystery of what truly happened with his parents , and find himself.
Defenders
Reveals himself to be more mature, centered, and comfortable with his role as the Ironfist
Ironsfist season s
We find Danny more angry, impetuous, and un-centered than ever, leading to him being trained in martial arts by a woman who he easily defeated in season 1.
Makes sense.
Can't wait to see these characters rebooted to join the MCU just like Daredevil and Kingpin
Season 2 of Iron Fist ended on such a strong note that I was hoping Season 3 would be even better but alas..... Luke Cage cancellation really pissed me off like wtf how can you end like that! oh well cheers to you for these videos
I thought i was the only one in the world that liked Iron Fist lol. I saw it get bashed like hell.
This video made me realize maybe I never watched season 2 of Iron Fist? Weird. I hope Marvel can bring in some of the best parts/actors into the MCU. Great video!
Iron Fist S2 was quite the glow up after S1. Pun intended.
The song at the end is very reminiscent of moon bandits
Iron fist’s canon implied only one person can wield the fist at a time so I am curious how he gets those abilities back
Maybe bcuz of the blip the iron fist powers reverted back to him after Colleen got blipped?
He didn't, those pistols he carried were a comic nod to a previous Iron Fist in comic history that embued the power in those pistols :P
@@DerpityEllis the glow was in his hands first but maybe
@@DerpityEllis cuz he said he wanted to prove himself before he was worthy of the powers again
@@MichaelWalker345 this is set before the blip i think
Of all the Netflix marvel shows, the one I would have been most interested to see another season was Luke cage. The angle they were gonna take with that seems to be very unique. Daredevil of course would have been great, but season 3 was a great conclusion
Luke cage is a beautiful show
Never got through season 2 of luke cage, actually love that ending
I personally find it heartbreaking to see Iron Fist really grow into its own, and really get me excited for what's coming next. Then, cancelled. Apart from Daredevil and Iron Fist, the rest of the Netflix Marvel shows got a little tiring, been there done that. Daredevil stayed consistently awesome, Iron Fist showed serious promise. The rest started off stronger than they ended.
I think if Marvel is bringing everyone from Netflix back so Daredevil, Punisher Jessica Jones, Iron Fist and Luke Cage, then it would be better if Iron Fist and Luke Cage get combined into one show called Heroes for Hire. Those two have a beautiful friendship that I wanna see explored on its own show and they can add Misty and Colleen. That episode of Luke Cage where Danny appears showed the potential that these two have.
There was so much to like, and even more to look forward to. Power Man and Iron Fist, KnightWing, Jessica and Hellcat, the return of Bullseye….but they’re all leaking into the MCU, so maybe, just maybe….
I didnt 'hate' Iron Fist though it was frustrating and those problems leaked into the writing of Defenders (A lot of rich lawyers having meetings) but the failures of Iron Fist and the poor pacing of Luke Cage were lessons learned, boiling down 13 episode seasons into a more manageable 6-8 episodes
Colleen and Ward were Iron Fists saving grace.
If they ever plan on bringing back Iron Fist in the MCU they should make the person in charge of the character is the person reponsible for Shang-Chi. I feel like the style and charm of Shang-Chi could fit an
Iron Fist story.
I have always been a huge fan of Luke Cage and agree wholeheartedly with this assessment of the Netflix shows. There were a fair few mistakes and bad decisions made in Marvel's television division at the time, but both shows had promise and were heading in interesting directions when they were cancelled.
I doubt we'll see Finn Jones in the MCU, but I hope they keep Mike Colter and I very much want Jessica Henwick to come back as Coleen Wing (maybe in a Shang-Chi sequel?). Marvel may not be able to get Colter back or they may not want to put his Luke Cage in a universe with Mahershala Ali as Blade, but if people can get over Chris Evans being in F4, they can get over Blade looking a lot like Cottonmouth.
Regardless, I thought the Netflix shows were largely under appreciated and I hope these characters get more love from Feige and Co.
I think Iron Fist would have been a success if they hired someone who actually practiced ANY martial art, instead we got a person who acted like he knew martial arts and failed, miserably. Every time Finn started moving in a fight scene you can tell that he never spent a second practicing. Jessica Henwick only learned martial arts on the set, yet she looks natural in her fight scenes, imo Jessica should take over the role of Iron Fist wherever the character is placed in the MCU.
Hot take
Moon knight and iron fist have a few similarities
When it comes to how DID was approached
What’s happening with Marc keeps reminding me of Mary Walker from iron fist
I guess maybe her DID situation could have been like a test run for moon knight
Cuz Mary also had the sweet innocent side
The protector side
And the darkest side
Seems like Marc is the same
Thoughts implicitly pretentious
Mary doesn't have DID, she most likely has some sort of CPTSD, but DID is a failure of personality integration and only develops in early childhood.
I do agree that the portrayal of her mental illness could have helped pave the way for Moon Knight and while I don't think either of them did a very good job of it, and they glamorised it a bit too much, they are both great characters and a massive leap forward from most previous portrayals in media.
Moon Knight and Iron Fist are the only street tier superheroes in Marvel with Mystical superpowers
@@UNKNOWN-qr7uo dude u forgot Shang chi
@@kotarojujo2737 Shang Chi doesn’t have any science or magic based powers in the comics or movies.He is just a regular skilled martial artist who manipulates chi
the way he says it make me think that, in at least one time, a man AND a woman came to him at the SAME TIME to tell him(how they came to
him)
I think both luke cage and IRON FIST, yes I said that right. Were both amazing shows. I never once thought of finn Jones portrayal of iron fist as whiney or anything on those lines. I feel like if he does whine about something it's completely justified to his situation. I can pretty confidently say that all the Netflix marvel shows had fantastic writing/story and the main, supporting cast were fantastic as well. Comparing any of the marvel Netflix shows to the majority of recent marvel disney + shows especially in terms of the writing/script is just a unfair match in my opinion. But than again people tend to enjoy terribly written shows/films nowadays...
Would love to see a Daredevil/Jessica and a Punisher video great content
So... How about doing videos about the other pre-Disney+ MCU series?
Luke cage the first half of the season was amazing but they killed the best villain with cottonmouth.
If they wanted to bring back Danny or Colleen I’d be down
If they wanted to do an older Danny who came back from the future played by Greg cipes
Or have the ultimate Spider-Man version show up in DS2 through the multiverse played by Greg cipes I wouldn’t be against it
Well since Charlie Cox is back as Matt Murdock aka Daredevil and there are rumors that Mike Colter will be back as Luke Cage in She-Hulk, hopefully Finn Jones can come back as Iron Fist and redeem himself and the character
Im a finn jones stan for the got interviews too he's so much like Danny should have been. It's a real shame how bad they did him
Wasn't appreciated the entire time it was airing despite it being to this day the best content Marvel has ever produced. Luke Cage was awesome, Danny Rand is my favorite, Daredevil is incredible and Jessica Jones is must watch Kristen Ritter was so good.
Honestly, I watched every Marvel/Netflix show but I didn’t even know Iron First had a season 2
Helstrom video next?
I honest would love for both Luke and Danny to return in like a heroes for hire tv show, where every season they get to work with other heroes and fight crime in New York, but I’m conflicted. On one hand I would like to see Danny back only for his friendship with Luke to be explored more, but on the other I vastly prefer Colleen as the iron fist..
Idk but maybe watch Agents of Shield and Cloak and Dagger. Was really great shows that have their own themes and topics.
Luke Cage is the second best show in the MCU, after WandaVision, shoot me.
You're asking for a firing squad saying things like that
I wish we could have seen K'un L'un. It seemed like a cheap copout that they arrived and it was "destroyed".
Dude It's been like, 5 videos in the last week alone. Take a second and focus on keeping the quality up. Not that this video was bad, it was good. I just don't want my fav essayist to burn out
Don't mind me I'm just commenting this before Iron Fist gets the Disney nostalgic treatment where suddenly it's not cool to hate it anymore and everyone "always loved it"
I'm looking at you Prequel Trilogy and Amazing Spider-Man
Iron Fist needed to lean into the mystical to make The Hand more believable with the more down to earth characters
I hate so much whem ppl say the only thing about these shows is violence. It's so much. They really tried to make great stories about these characters and its kind suck every timensomeone tries to make something diferent and out of box it usually ends without a conclusion. I love Netflix Defenders shows and i miss them.
