Daredevil's "Kingpin"

Since I'm not the only one who mentioned how bad the Affleck Daredevil movie was...

 

Your post didn't include a quote, so it stands on its own, and should be responded to, accordingly.

I'm incredibly stoked to watch this. It looks so solid

I'm through the first episode. You should probably call in and watch it

Anyone watching this? I just got off work so I'm just now watching episode one but I plan to binge watch them all tonight.

Reviews say that the season plays like a 13 hour movie instead of a 13 episode season and is the perfect series to binge watch.

I thInk it's very well cast. Murdock confused me at first until i realized his mannerisms for being blind are good.

It's dark and gritty. Bring on The Punisher!

I'm 6 episodes in. It's pretty good but not perfect thus far. I'll reserve my full thoughts until I see how everything plays out though.

I thought the kingpin actor was laughably bad.

I wished R. Lee Ermy would have shown up for one scene with the kingpin.

I think it was just the way the character was written. Very different from the Kingpin of the comics that we're all familiar with.

Awesome comparisons of how much alike him and Murdoch were.

They both loved to protect their women.

They both wanted to clean up the city and make it thrive.

It showed how they both got their first drink, and how much different that experience was for them.

It also showed how both of them lost their fathers.

It's an origin story, I felt watching it that we were watching him grow and develop into the Kingpin we know.

Exactly, and I thought D'Onofrio nailed it.
