Marvel/Netflix Daredevil season 2.

So apparently Marvel debuted a new Daredevil trailer at a convention in Brazil. (I didn't bother to read the spoiler description because I'd rather just wait and watch it with my own eyes.)

Based on the timing of some past netflix trailers, we might not have to wait all the way until April for DD Season 2. I'd gladly settle for February or March.
 
Moore and Miller are both nuts. It's amazing that they're on different sides of the pool, but they're both diving into the deep end.
 
Honestly, if Frank Miller dislikes something, its usually a good sign that it will be worth experiencing. The guy is a gigantic racist, sexist a-hole. At least with Alan Moore, as weird as he is, I haven't heard anything about him being a horrible person.

Besides, I don't think Miller has written for Elektra since before I was born. The modern comic version is probably as far away from what he considers the "real Elektra" as the Netflix version is, and that's a good thing. Frank Miller wrote a few decent things in the 80s, but he went crazier and crazier as time went on. His opinion about any character is fairly useless nowadays.
 
Oh, I completely agree with you guys, but I still thought the story was worth sharing. I have a feeling anything we'll get with Elektra will be many times better than what modern Frank Miller would give us.
 
Frank Miller hasn't watched DD Season 1 and is pissed they're using Elektra. He said "they can call it whatever you want, but it will not be the real Elektra." I didn't realize Miller was that pissy about adaptations of his stuff. I know Alan Moore hates adaptations of his stuff, but I didn't think Miller usually reacted like that.

He doesn't hate adaptations of his stuff, he hates people using Elektra without his permission. He thought he had an understanding with Marvel, but D.G. Chichester brought her back. They've continued to use her since then.

Of course, Miller never owned the character and would have known that getting in. In addition, I also don't think he can complain when he engineered the way for her to come back. Finally, she's extremely different in personality between the original run and Man Without Fear (where in the latter, she comes off as someone crazy). While there are parts I enjoy of the new take, I don't think Miller is someone who is protecting the integrity of the character anyway.
 
It's a funny attitude to have for people whose careers are based on their adaptations of characters created by others in the first place.
 
Daredevil was shit before Frank turned up and mostly shit after he left.

What Frank did wasn't really that good either.

Did he have problems with Jennifer Garner?

Because she was awful, so fricking dry and bland.
 
Interesting article, thanks for sharing. I wonder how long it will take us to get the skull shirt for Punisher?

They are both cut from the same cloth, one a far-right nut the other a far-left nut and with freedom of speech they are entitled to their opinion no matter how stupid they seem...older people they tend to get more radical and stuck in their ways while the world moves on


Didn't know the guy from Walking Dead was in this show, anyhow the scene looks like its straight out of a Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon comic
 
So the writer from EW has already seen the first two episodes. I have a feeling that it's going to be April at the latest, maybe March if we're lucky. Probably not February though, as we likely would have heard a date by now.

It might come down to where they want to squeeze it in against all the other superhero offerings:
-release at the same time Agents of Shield comes back
-release at the same time as Batman vs Superman
-release in the gap between BvS and Civil War

The Marvel tv bosses might not want to steal too much limelight from AOS's return.
 
March 18 according to Marvel.
