    Lots of rumors swirling about why all the Netflix shows are getting cancelled, but it seems like we may see these characters return in some form on Disney's forthcoming streaming service. I hope they figure out a way to connect the TV shows with the MCU.

    I think I started believing this rumor with "Daredevil" being cancelled.

    So, like, uh, Ant-Man goes in a time vortex, right?

    I can't believe I typed this.

    Nice. :)

    Still can't get used to hot Aunt May. :ROFLMAO:

    BTW, was that Carol Danvers in that one shot with Nick Fury? I'm guessing not, but I'm not entirely sure it wasn't. Check 1:38 in the video to see what I mean.

    Dude, the Tom Holland Spidey sequel was announced before Infinity War was even released. Unless I am very much misremembering. So anyone who paid even a little attention to the Marvel movie franchise knew that Peter's fate would have to be retconned in Part II. Same for the Guardians of the Galaxy and some other characters.

    It’s almost as bad as when they brought Bobby Ewing back from the dead on “Dallas.”

    1. The Punisher
    2. Daredevil season two
    3. Daredevil season one
    4. Jessica Jones season one
    5. Daredevil season three
    6. Luke Cage season one
    7. The Punisher season two
    8. Iron Fist season two
    9. The Defenders
    10. Jessica Jones season two
    11. Iron Fist season one
    12. Luke Cage season two
    My revised rankings after having seen The Punisher season two.

    I really thought this would end up being ranked much higher. It was difficult to choose between this or Luke Cage season one at number six but then I realized that nothing in The Punisher season two is as good as the Cottonmouth story line in Luke Cage season one.

    season 2 is really weak. what a shambel of a season. Billy Russo all season was dreadfully boring IMO.

    why does all the Netflix series drop the ball on their sophmore seasons?

    Lost somewhat in Bill Maher's bloviating, needlessly mean diatribe is a nugget of truth. The idea that perhaps comic books collectively do not have the depth to justify their inflated current importance in our culture. I love them and I love comic book movies but I sort of wish that they hadn't more or less reduced big budget cinema to just them and Star Wars.

    I don't know. Are comic books or comic book movies really all that different in structure or depth than, say, Ancient Greek Mythology, a cultural touchstone of Western Civilization literature still studied today?

    It's a worthy discussion. Ancient literature has centuries of credibility and effects on current culture/morality/etc.. Comics have only been around for maybe 90 years and been cultural mainstays for a few decades. I'd like to see this discussed further.

    My kid is in 7th grade and their English class has just finished a segment on dystopian novels. He was assigned three novels in this genre - one of them was "Mortal Engines" which was just recently a movie. It was a good read. I thought back to all the "classic literature" crap I got assigned in school - Lord of the Flies, Catcher in the Rye, etc. - all boring as ass compared to the stuff my kid got to read. Classic literature is overrated. I want to see what happens if they assign "The Dark Knight Returns" in the dystopian genre next time. ;)

    I watched 25 mins of ME. Not sure how good the read is, but the film is just dreadfully boring.

    I've been trying to finish Punisher 2 and Jessica Jones 2 for so long now. I take a break and go back but stop because it's so lame

    People have to hear it. P season 2 was a huge letdown. I'm not sure as dreadfully boring as JJ season 2; but surely not far off.

    The main issue with season two was a needless rehash of the Billy Russo story line. They should have given Frank a new villain. Also, the loss of interest in him and Amy as a dynamic hurt the season. For me season two worked best when Bernthal and Whigham were playing off each other. Like in the three card monte scene.
