Amph Marvel's Jessica Jones

Jessica and Tony need to be on screen at the same time at some point.

 

Snark-Off?

 

I'm jonesing for a s(t)ark-off!

 

Just finished the season.

Spoiler

Kind of bummed that Kilgrave is dead, not because I think his character could have gone on much longer as the primary villain but more of...he put the rest of the on screen villains so far to shame. I'm sure they'll match him somehow but it was nice to see a well executed villain finally. Not that Fisk isn't good, he's just...not as scary.

 

Spoiler

TBH, as much as that monster deserved it, I'm kinda bummed too that Killgrave was killed off. Murder truly is for the unimaginative. There were so many ways to neutralize him and have him face true justice than simply snapping his neck. Removing his ability to speak and let him live the rest of his life mute, powerless and behind a cell would've been a considerably harsher punishment. And it would've eventually opened the door for an eventual return after he stewed for a bit and underwent the standard comic-booky miraculous healing. I'm afraid that by effectively killing off their Joker, the showrunners may not be able to produce future threats anywhere near as captivating as him.

 

And a drink-off.

 

Get Tony, Jessica, Starlord, Ant-Man, and Rocket Raccoon all in a room together and let the Snark-rumble begin.

 

I can't wait for Jessica to meet Matt and Foggy for the first time.

"So I'm going to be working with a blind guy who wears spandex and devil horns. Christ." *downs more whiskey*

 

... or Luke becomes bartender at Josie's?

 

I hate Fisk. He's so mopey. I guess they're both children in their own way, but Fisk's teary eyed monologuing is pretty bad.

 

I think we're all in agreement that Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones is good casting, and she did a great job, but I would say the same for Charlie Cox. I didn't see anything ground breaking coming from Ritter when comparing her previous body of work thus far to this performance.

Spoiler: Episode 13

Her smiling reminded me of Wednesday's creepy smile in a similar scene from "Adams Family Values".

As for the villains, I loved watching David Tennant probably just as much as Vincent D'Onofrio. I think it goes without saying that a having a strong antagonist is just as important as having a strong protagonist. If the writers/directors/actors screw up either one it results in ruining the whole series.

Spoiler: Episode 13

I loved the Rosario Dawson connection between the two series as well.

My favorite episode of each season was the 8th one which I think is kind of funny.
Jessica Jones: AKA WWJD?
Daredevil: Shadows in the Glass

So with that said, hats off to Netflix/Marvel/etc on creating two great series that I enjoyed very close to equally.
(With any luck, I might be able to get my gf watch Daredevil in the not to distant future. )

 

Well tbh I hate his face and yeah, his monologues. But it's the good kind of hate for me, it helped me see him as a villain. Truly dislikeable.

 

I guess I forgot you're supposed to dislike marvel villains.

 

I really thought he was going to go full purple at the end there

 

I was hoping for it. A true case of purpleballs.

 

Apparently he was...

Spoiler

As we saw, when he took the final injection, his veins were turning his neck purple and it was going up to his face... he's normal-colored again when we see him, but when he shouts STOP on the dock, he starts turning purple again...

 

was the black cop who interviews her in ep2 from Daredevil ?

 

I'm pretty sure that he was the same guy.

 

I'm not reading the thread, as I still have one episode to go, and I assume this has been discussed for at least a page, because it really makes no sense whatsoever, but at 8:37 in episode 11...

Spoiler

It clearly shows Trish's car is a Hyundai. This makes no sense on any level. She obviously has money and expensive tastes, there is no way she'd drive a Hyundai. They show other car brands, so it's not like they have a deal with one manufacturer. Even in the next episode, when her mother comes to her apartment, the mother says, "you always had good taste. Expensive, but good." So she's drives a cheap South Korean car? I think not.

 

In the mcu Hyundai is the most expensive, luxurious brand of car available. Unlike the Lexus, which has a contract with shield, and is cheap.

 

Spoiler

Jessica probably borrows her cars often enough and wrecks them that Trish has given up trying to have nice ones and just gets cheap ones that jessica can ruin and not dent her pocket book as much.

 

While I appreciate your use of "pocket book", no!

 

what? Jessica has clearly been avoiding Trish for some time before the series.

 

You can borrow someone's stuff and still avoid them. Have seen stuff like that happen all the time at college.

 

Yeah I used to break into all my college friend's apartments all the time and steal their expensive things. This isn't unusual.
