The next Marvel Netflix series.
After being featured heavily in the first season of Jessica Jones, Luke Cage gets his own series focused in Harlem coming September 30th.

Thought it looked extremely cringe tbh.

Then again I thought only 35-65% of daredevil was good and that Jessica Jones was awful and those are two shows most people liked.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

looks terrible tbh. Besides, some superheros that don't have anything distinguishing shouldn't really be made into shows or live action movies. Batman, although he had no superpowers, was an exception because he has such interesting villains and a distinguishing identity.

For example, I would be much more open to the idea of a show for Colossus, Vision, Groot, Agent Venom, Yellow Jacket.

Get Iron Fist / Luke cage outta here.

Jesus can you put more cliché lines in a 2 minutes trailer :

"You think I ask for any of this?"
"I just want to be left the hell alone"
"Everybody wants to be the king"
"Sometimes if you want justice you have to get it yourself"
"You want to go to war? I take you to war"

The cringe is real.
"I don't know how many years on this Earth I got left. I'm gonna get real weird with it."

I'm pretty cynical, but ya'll motherfuckers are way too cynical for your own good if you can't appreciate a good TV action series.

Finished the series. Pretty good if you liked the other Marvel netflix series. If not, nothing here is going to change your mind.

It is very good so far. Deep cuts from Luke Cage's 70 era blaxploitation root. It takes some turns well beyond the trailer and all the characters are well thought out. And there is something cathartic about seeing a black man in a hoodie that is bullet proof.

I liked it, but it has some of the problems that I have with Superman as a hero for much of the series in that the only threat is to the innocent bystanders. It's hard to have compelling confrontations with villains who aren't a direct threat to the hero at all. At least his past is a weakness as well, and the flashbacks are really well done, and the tie ins to the rest of the Marvel universe are great.

Diamondback spoilers:

Then they make the judas bullets and suddenly he is just a strong guy. Probably would have been better to make the weapon that hurt him a knife or melee weapon which would allow for interesting fight choreography where there is a threat, but one that Cage could overcome. The last episode fight wasn't very well choreographed either.

I think the hero being impervious to damage, but also unable to be everywhere at once is a good dynamic between hero and villain. The most interesting part of Luke Cage is that he is about community revival. He isn’t like Iron Man or Captian America, who travel around the world fighting villains. He lives in one section of New York and tries to make that place better, both by fighting criminals and by trying to inspire people.

I loved the fact that the writers has Luke take the time to try and convince a man to stop drinking. And that he hangs out in diners trying to figure out how to rebuild a barber shop. Fight scenes are fun, but the community building aspect of the show is its strongest part.

Plus the criminals becoming used to him just ruining their day, destroying their guns.

Yea, I like this parts of the show as well. I found those parts sending a more positive message then just lets kick villain ass.
New Superman movies are like opposite of Luke Cage and I hate them for it.

Just finished the show and i thought it was a lot better than i was expecting tbh. Cottonmouth was a cool cat and Diamondback was way over the top. The last fight scene with Luke and Diamondback was pretty cringy both choreography and the dialogue. Diamondback's motivations just didn't seem believable to me at all. Episode 5 opening was gold and i really enjoyed the live music performances.
