While we wait for season three of Daredevil and season two of Jessica Jones (eeeeeeeek!) Netflix wants to make sure our Marvel thirst is quenched. They’re rolling out two new shows and the trailers just hit the web. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ymw5uvViqPU Firstly, the music is a phenomenal choice. Just a subtle Ol’ Dirty Bastard ditty playing in…
It may seem like all your shows are coming to an end and summer is reliant on summer blockbusters for science fiction entertainment, but I’m here to tell you about five series premiering this summer (and just a bit after that) to get excited about. 1. Preacher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CExabLxu0dc Yeah, I wasn’t super into the pilot,…
It’s our season finale, folks! Who’s ready for “A Cold Day in Hell’s Kitchen”? Stick is being sheltered in Matt’s apartment away from Elektra AKA the Black Sky and Nobu. Matt is still sure that he can stop them both on his own. He and Elektra bicker on the rooftop about her new role in…
The first scene of “Man in the Box” is pretty chilling even for Daredevil standards. The camera follows Detective Mahoney through the dark basement as his flashlight casts an eerie light on the emaciated children as they sit in small iron cells with tubes leading blood away from their bodies. Mahoney brings the kids to…
In the last episode of Daredevil, the character of Elektra, played by Élodie Yung, was far from a happy addition. In episode six, titled “Regrets Only”, I regret to inform you that she’s still highly unlikable. After tricking Matt into fighting the Yakuza, they agree to work together to drive them out of New York on…
So Elektra shows up at the end of the last episode and now at the beginning of “Kinbaku” we dive into ten years ago where their story starts. Matt met Elektra Natchios at a fancy party a decade ago and the spark was instantaneous. Back in those days Matt was less of a do-gooder and…
Last episode we started to see the beginning cracks in Frank Castle and in episode four, titled “Penny and Dime”, his foundation begins to crumble. A high-ranking and volatile member of the Irish mafia insists that they find and kill the man responsible for the brutal murder of his fellow members. His gang is equally…
On this week’s episode of Marvel’s Daredevil our hero is in peril and, as if we doubted it before, The Punisher means business. He’s wiping out the gangs of Hell’s Kitchen with firepower of an entire SWAT team and now he’s got beef with Matt Murdock. While Murdock struggles with his recovery, it’s Foggy who…
Before the horror genre was inundated with “found footage” there was a film in 2008 that did it right. In 2008, director Matt Reeves delivered Cloverfield. The mega-motion flick was written by Daredevil adapter Drew Goddard and produced by J.J. Abrams and his Bad Robot Productions. The movie begins with a normal day in New York when…
Less than a year ago, the bomb that is Marvel’s Daredevil dropped onto Netflix and now we’re already getting pumped for season two. The official teaser was recently released and giving us hints of what’s to come. Check it out. Yay for more Matt Murdock! So it’s more of an audio preview with a little eye…
With the old year gone and the new having arrived, I can finally compile my list of the top five science fiction television shows of 2015 and therefore justify the atrocious amount of TV shows I consumed this year. 5. Wayward Pines This show blew me away. I sort of tuned in by accident and was…
For Netflix binging purposes, I am here to tell you that Marvel’s Jessica Jones should be top priority. Thirteen episodes went up on November 20th and already people have been raving about the latest dive into the Marvel Universe. Kristen Ritter stars as Jessica Jones, an alcoholic snark with a lurking need to do good….
