I don't like her. She's not attractive to me in the slightest. I can't say why. She's not ugly. She doesn't appear to have a bad body. She's just...there. Might as well be a doorknob or a lamp.

They were good, but you'll probably see what I mean as you get further along. Or not. YMMV...

Just started watching it today, two episodes in. I went in with very low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Fight scenes are shit though.

This is my main problem with it. They could have fucked up everything else about it, but the fight scenes with Rand just seem to get worse as the season progresses. I find it hilarious that the best fight scenes in the show are the ones with the "weak girl" that everybody complained about in the trailer. Rand is a complete waste.

Yup.

I think if you combined the two 'boys' you'd get Keanu Reeves.

i couldn't get over how many actors couldn't hide their british accents :-)

I'm halfway through episode four and Rand is the dumbest superhero I've seen since The Tick. I don't mean that the show is dumb, I mean the character is stupid.

It is slow. But I think they had to, not many know about iron fist.

if it didn't take netflix so long to figure proper casting earlier, and had a script to begin with, they could have better integrated him in the other series.

i think they deliberately waited till the last knowing how hard a sell it would be.:-)

I always thought him and cage were horrible characters. I didn't like iron fist until he was in the young avengers or what ever it was called tv show led by spiderman and fury.

His fight scenes are not on par with daredevil, which you would figure 15 years of training by monks would be better.

Also. I am not understanding the hate luke cage series is getting. I thought it was decent.

The bad guys in this show are done by better actors than the good guys. Even when they get on a roll (good guys) the writing is holding them back. The Gao interrogation scene is a good example of this. And the lead isn't believable at all. I'm beyond sick of the man-child hippy shit. Hearing him mention that he was trained in self control, and then seeing him do stupid shit and get angry when it doesn't work. And the sprinklings of pretend Eastern mysticism in the dialogue leave him sounding like that 30 year old idiot friend on Face Book who just discovered New Age bullshit that's been around in this country for 50+ years or so. I like the sidekick. She's a cutie. I enjoyed seeing the Night Nurse and Gao show up-but they both just remind me that I'm still waiting for another season of DareDevil.

I thought Ward was the best character. Just like in Luke Cage, the show was carried by Shades, Cottonmouth, and Mariah.

I've always liked Iron Fist, but he's like Batman and a lot of other superheroes being translated for the movies and/or television, in that the casting of the lead is crucial. I just don't know what the hell they were thinking with the casting.
[Reply]

This is where I'm at. I wasn't into comics growing up and I had never heard of the Iron Fist before this show. I'm 4 episodes in and like it so far.
