Marvel’s first on Hulu, it’s their least darkest, and it focuses on teenagers. So anyone catch it yet?
I have to admit the trailers didn’t excite or interest me (compared to Inhumans, that’s a diffferent story), but I thought I’d give it a shot anyway. So far, I think it’s well-done and it certainly feels different. Not great but let’s see where it goes.
I have not really got on board with the non Netflix marvel shows. I thought about trying Legion but the rest have not really interested me.
shareI’m really into Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (a show that has been improving with every season) and Agent Carter, but I know what you mean. The Netflix ones are grittier (significantly more), they don’t look nearly as polished, they are more grounded and cinematic, etc.
Legion is a must-see though. It’s intense and mind-bending like no other Marvel/superhero show (or any show on cable) out there.
havent seen much of those two so far, but i agree legion is top notch. what about "the gifted"?
sharedude, legion is absolutely incredible. what about the gifted? so far the darkest marvel stuff i have seen since "logan".
shareI have yet to catch The Gifted (I just finished The Punisher!). But I’ve heard very good things about it, and seeing how the X-Men series has been pushing the envelope, I know it has to be worth seeing.
sharefor me it's the other way around: i still have to start punisher. ^^
you will love it. how was punisher? does it live up to the expectations?
I personally thought the show was satisfying and worth the wait. It’s not perfect (it could’ve been better in some aspects), but it’s a pretty good start. I always thought the critically panned War Zone movie had an honest portrayal of The Punisher, but Bernthal’s take on the character is easily the most faithful and heart-wrenching to date.
shareTwelve IMDB reviews, mostly negative. Poor characters, Teen Soap.
shareBoring directionless garbage. Judging by the first three episodes, anyway.
shareI watch anything Marvel, I even fought trough that ridiculous garbage that was Inhumans. saw the first 3 episodes of this and its interesting enough but nothing spectacular so far.
shareTotally agree with you Xcalat3.
Inhumans was terrible but I watched every episode because it’s Marvel.
The Runaways is a bit too angsty & teenagery for me but I am staying for the parents back- story as I have not read the comics and am not entirely certain what is actually going on yet regarding the murders, magic, dinosaurs (?) and super powers!
/The Runaways is a bit too angsty & teenagery/
yeah, not a fan of that and the SJW chick but the parents "cult" is interesting.
It's got problems for sure, the same problems the comics had I would say, but I find it surprisingly good. I thought this was going to be more for tweens, but it isn't - it has depth, complexity and a downright darkness to it while still maintaining a story-line fit for a teenage audience, which is who it's meant for, and I can't help but applaud that.
