Iron Fist Iron Fist General Discussion Thread - Part 1

[Mike Murdock]

I think he's B now. He certainly has been C in the past (I would argue any time before Kevin Smith not counting Frank Miller's run). And, trust me, I say this as a big fan.

 

[BarryAllen]

I'm just trying to be pragmatic. Netflix says they want to keep two shows a year. At some point, they are probably going to have to add more shows. This means it might make more sense to put two shows together.

I'm not saying you are wrong, you could be right. However, there is also precedence in the comics for Iron Fist and Power Man simply sharing their own book together, and some of those were really good stories. I feel like there could be good potential for a Heroes for Hire season.

I highly doubt Marvel would want to build up the individual Luke Cage and Iron Fist IPs only to not give them multiple of their own seasons. If a former obscure character like Jessica Jones can get multiple seasons, I have absolute confidence characters like Cage and Fist with tons of lore on their own have more than enough legs to stand on.

ya the solo shows is likely what they want to do more with each character define and develop them. The defenders mini/continuation is where they could play into doing heroes for hire/new avengers type stories with them all. Just like in the comics they have there team stories while aslo dealing with and doing there own solo stuff.

 

[marcvader]

I would want a Heroes for Hire, Power Man and Iron Fist for a season, not a mini.

 

[BatsDC]

Well, it ain't gonna be Dan Stevens... He's been cast in Legion.

 

[Web-Head]

Well, it ain't gonna be Dan Stevens... He's been cast in Legion.

Wasn't he the one who said he had meetings with Marvel? Well, now we know why.

 

[Webhead2006]

ya you cant just say going to marvel these days cause it could be for fox related things, or marvel studios and mcu related tv things.

why not ?

 

[Webhead2006]

oh i just meant you cant exptect to know who at marvel ie fox marvel, marvel studios marvel folks are seeing if they meantion oh i talked to marvel about x thing.

 

[metaphysician]

I just go with this simple rule: if its not Marvel Studios, its not Marvel. So, Hugh Jackman doesn't make Marvel movies, he makes Fox movies, for example.

 

[Flint Marko]

Agreed. Marvel makes Marvel movies. Fox does not.

 

[Webhead2006]

what if someone was talking to marvel comics end? Do you not say its marvel then too lol>>>>

 

[Mike Murdock]

Talking to doesn't mean letting them produce.

 

[Web-Head]

When do you guys think they'll announce the Iron Fist casting? They announced Charlie Cox 10 months before Daredevil was released and they announced Krysten Ritter 11 months before Jessica Jones was released, if that's any indication.

 

[Stark Bauer]

Probably 9 months before the show launches.

Deadpool imho IS more Marvel than a Marvel Studios film. It's looking like the truest comic to movie adaptation since Watchmen, Sin City and 300.

 

[TheVileOne]

If you want to talk about Deadpool Stark Bauer, maybe go to Deadpool forums.

Keep in mind that Sin City is not really like a superhero show. It's a hard boiled gritty comic book series. Also Watchmen wasn't that good.

I could easily argue that Daredevil is very faithful and true to the comics.

 

[Silvermoth]

Marvel doesn't announce major casting announcements at conventions anymore do they? Unless they're Disney oriented. So no idea, sorry

 

[Webhead2006]

Well show is likely to start filming around July to sept so probably in next 2 or 3 months I figure.

 

[Nayt Navare]

I just want to know who Danny is, so I can know what to expect.

 

[Silvermoth]

I know, everyone is dying for the latest goss. I simply have no idea what to expect

 

[Webhead2006]

It still has to be announced aoon. As I brought up it likely to begin filming mid summer or early fall like luke cage did. All counting of course when next yr it's likely to drop. And when defenders likely to shoot and it drop too.

 

[Silvermoth]

Isn't it funny to think that if mike colter is right and they've already cast him that actor is probably just sitting back brimming with excitement unable to tell anyone right now.

He might even be reading these messages and laughing at us as we try and work out what's going on

 

[3dman27]

yeah

 

[Webhead2006]

ya that has to suck for the guy not to blab it. like guy who plays jarvis/vision. HE knew he was to be vision years before it happened in aou.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

I mean, to be fair, everybody pretty much guessed that was going to happen anyway.
