Well, who would've thought it could get darker than "Daredevil"?

I like it.

I think he means more like what is the acronym. I don’t think there is one. Just Marvel Comics.

So it’s the JMCU then?

On episode 10 right now. I’m really enjoying it, but I certainly need some time to organize my thoughts. I think Krysten Ritter was perfectly cast for the role. Though I do think the story could be a bit tighter in some places. Still not sure what I think of it compared to Daredevil.

Why does the trailer suggest CA will kill Iron Man ? I hope that’s not what the comics is about.

Finally finished Jessica Jones a few days ago. It’s a real struggle when you’re restrained by others’ schedules.

Anyway, it was pretty solid. David Tennant was brilliant as Kilgrave. Definitely looking forward to Luke Cage and Iron Fist.

Here’s our first look at Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange:

Why is it that Cumberbatch is just about the only actor that I almost always see as himself rather than whatever character he’s supposed to be playing?

I think its because so far (for me at least) he usually is playing the same character. Cocky (Smaug), suave (Khan), if not the villain than morally questionable (Sherlock). I’m interested in him playing a hero.

Did they actually credit each of the actors returning in the sequel with the original movie? That seems obvious.

Not Bradley Cooper.
