Daredevil: Born Again.

Yeah it's on Disney but we got that because my wife insists so at least something I will watch on it too. Same cast as last.

I'm cautiously optimistic, but not going to hold my breath.

The Daredevil and Punisher shows worked partly/mostly because Disney took more of a hands-off approach since they were developed by Netflix, and because they were aimed at an adult audience.

This was also before Disney went fully off the rails with their woke BS, and before Marvel stuff took its big dive in quality.

Now it's on Disney's own service, which is more kid/teen-oriented. And Disney is running the show completely. Keep in mind the last dozen or more Disney-Marvel shows and movies have been awful-to-middling.

So I hope it's good, but won't be surprised if it isn't.

It looks excellent, but I'm still nervous they're going to fuck it up.

Yup, sad that it’s on Disney and not on Netflix. I’ll never see it. I’m not giving Disney a drop of piss.

I actually tried to cancel disney+ yesterday.

I told my kids to finish watching what they wanted back in december.

Well, it let me cancel, but since it auto renewed a few weeks ago (guess i had an annual plan), disney said it's canceled but you can watch until jan 2026. I ended up having to call a live person to demand a refund. Refund just hit for the whole year.

I won't get or support Disney but I did like the Series when it was on Netflix (or Prime as the case may be).
Maybe after Disney makes their money from it they will let the others show it. Frown

I’ll give it a shot, only because the previous version was really good, And it looks like they are keeping the same cast. I already subscribe to Disney because of all the good content for the kids.

Looks good. I hope it is. I enjoyed all the Daredevil / Punisher series. Hell I liked Jessica Jones & Luke Cage as well. Loved Iron Fist as a kid. Thought they could have done way better on that one.

Yeah, Iron Fist was easily the worst of the Netflix Marvel shows.

Luke Cage was not great either. Same with the team-up Defenders show.

Jessica Jones showed promise and did well in some areas, but still fell short of Daredevil and Punisher.
