Amph Marvel's Jessica Jones

Yeah they said in an interview every marvel project has it's own genre/style to make them all different. Jessica Jones gets to be the Noir part of Marvel.

 

The Netflix original series style of programming has an opportunity to do some of the most original storytelling anywhere, and I feel that the Netflix/Marvel collaboration has seized that opportunity. Obviously I don't know how good Jessica Jones will be, but when I think about House of Cards and the first two seasons of Orange and season one of Daredevil, it seems to me that Netflix has built itself a new golden age of storytelling. The ability to make a 13 hour movie divided into manageable chunks that the audience can watch at an individualized pace feels almost revolutionary.

I enjoyed Daredevil season one more than any Marvel movie I've ever seen. I think it was better than all of them.

The only thing I'd say is that it's relatively easy to make a great single season, but eventually it gets difficult. The writers run out of inspiration. The cast gets tired. The style veers into self-parody.

Netflix should consider just making fantastic stand alone 12-15 hour movies divided into one hour chunks, such as a great single season of Jessica Jones--and then quit before any fridges are nuked as they almost inevitably will be.

 

Is "nuking the fridge" the new "jumping the shark"?

It has a nice gif

 

Hot damn.

 

Is it annoying if I ask questions about what the picture means, such as "what does that picture mean?" I won't do it if it gets in the way of you communing with each other over your familiarity with the character and her story.

 

But I still have to watch the 90 second intro every chunk, so maybe not that innovative.

 

It's the (supposed) main baddie of the story, played by David Tennant, singing to Jessica in a purple-lit room...

... which may have other indications, such as a nightmare or memory, or simply a flashback or current scene with them.

 

I hope he's singing "Hallelujah".

 

Nebula looked cool, but was woefully underused (especially since her backstory with Thanos and Gamora sounded SO MUCH more interesting than anything with Ronan). Hopefully she'll be back for the sequel and they'll use her more this time around.

Crossbones is ok, but we need to see more of him to call him "great" imo.

Hammer was a joke. He only barely scrapes by because Sam Rockwell is just really entertaining in general. Plus that movie couldn't make up it's mind as to whether he or Whiplash was the main threat, which hurt it.

 

No, he must sing the most psychotic version of "You Are My Sunshine" ever.

 

Nope. This

 

I'd think it would be a Prince song.

 

Nah, Prince is Batman's bitch.

 

New trailer

 

All hail the Marvel Netflix Universe. a slightly twisted, psychologically damaged, alcohol-fueled Supergirl who doesn't embrace her hero status: that's kind of interesting.

 

I wonder if Lester Freeman is still following the money?

 

November 20th can't come soon enough.

 

Man, I'm liking the look of this show more and more.

 

What does Cage say after Jessica said, "make it a double?" I've replayed that scene several times and it's still unclear. I even turned on the Closed Captions and nothing.

Anyway, good second trailer. Seeing how the tone and setting for these Marvel Netflix series are going, it's going to be a challenge to cross these characters over with the MCU proper. I mean, you'll most likely lose the dark aspects and whatnot with the Marvel Netflix characters. I mean, I've read many fans wanting Kingpin to crossover with Spidey, but this version of the Kingpin really works because he's "R" rated. A PG-13 Kingpin may not have the same impact.

As far as Jessica Jones, I'd like to have a drink with her. She's like the type of person that can hold her own alcohol and most likely drink me under the table. Moreover, I like the fact the Jessica won't the be generic badass chick. She's going to have depth and a huge range of emotions that's going to separate her from the rest.

 

"Hard day at the office?
Lot of booze for such a small woman."

 

I wouldn't mind every Netflix show existing in its own universe. I don't really see how Jessica/purple themed bad guy and Daredevil/Kingpin can coexist in the same universe.

 

"Hard day at the office?"

EDIT: That's what I get for watching the trailer twice before actually responding in the thread.
