This is the master of Kung Fu?

Please, remember what Bruce Lee looked like. How could they fuck this up so bad? Why did they cast this DYEL faggot?

I want to fuck this guy in the mouth and I'm not even gay.

>>80730940
why this guy dont use his kapeshit mask dd uses it!
>>
>>80730940
He's a warrior monk who traditionally didn't look like bruce lee because they fast alot.

He also has magic powers in his hands so he doesn't need to be mega jacked

So basically try again, sweetie.

He couldn't even bother going to the gym 4 days a week to be the lead in a fucking action show about a martial artist master.
>>
>>80730940

I quite like him, poor man's Heath Ledger that he is.

He's oddly good in Iron Fist despite his character being all over the place - one minute quoting the Buddha and the next minute throwing a tantrum in a restaurant

Those monks really fucked him up
>>
they gave him THREE WEEKS to prepare. Yes, you heard that correctly. 3 weeks to pratice """"martial arts""""

and it shows. he can't fight and that's how you end up with this: https://streamable.com/cmctg

56 cuts in 36 second fight.

and who was running the show? the guy that ran dexter into the ground.

I think everyone agrees that he was a shitty if. Hopefully they just give the part to someone else

I get the feeling they told him last minute he got the part.

He couldn't fight and he wasn't even toned, hopefully he hit's the gym for the Defenders, DD makes him look tiny.

The show problems go much deeper than the lead. There really isn't any aspect of the show that is done well. Camerawork, direction, story, script, casting, acting, fight choreography, music, set pieces, you name it. Even the intro to the show is cheap garbage. The entire thing is obviously thrown together. It's an imitation of a TV show. Marvel wanted to see how dumb there fans were to know just how far they could lower the bar to make even money.

I feel bad for him in a way. He probably came into this thinking he was going to be in a quality production like daredevil and it would be the opportunity of a lifetime. Rightfully so. Instead, Iron Fist is an absolute nightmare that had NONE of the production value that Daredevil had and appears as though it were outsourced to a temp agency. Nerds will scapegoat him for it, he is the face of SJW's pain for nothing more than being a white male, and his career, most likely, will never recover. Dreams absolutely dashed. Feels bad bro

actually the poor guy did, he had 3 weeks to get ready, three fucking weeks for a kung-fu heavy role, they prob didn't even pay for a trainer

Daredevil is actually good, the intro is 10/10 too. Luke Cage was fine but killing off Cotton mouth was shit, Jessica Jones was weak as fuck outside of Kilgrave.

Iron fist was okay, you could tell he was ill prepared for the role and the story basically boils down to "every one but the old Lady is lying at some point". I thought Colleen was a QT and a good character, Faramir was decent too. IF's friend started out strong and then the last episode happens and he's just a bitter faggot.


More Fisk, more Punisher and more blind lawyer beats the fuck out of people, that's all I want from this Netflix universe really.

It's Bendis shit coming back to bite everyone in the ass. He got overly attached to several characters for no reason at a time where comics got a brief whiff of mainstream recognition (proto capeshit coming back with the first Spiderman movie) and he never let go.

Jessica Jones and Luke Cage became somewhat of the Marvel "first family" replacing the Fantastic Four and the fucking world started to revolve around Cage's daughter. That' meant that Iron Fist got a free ride for a while.

There is still worse to come, Namor got hyped up during that time, and so did a shitty crimelord called Parker Robbins who got some mystical relics. It's also the reason why out of all the X men Marvel only bothered to try to get back the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, and even then killed the guy almost immediately, Bendis has a huge hard on for Wanda.

I'm VERY surprised there hasn't been a Spiderwoman series as well

Namor is shallow as fuck, he's good as a plot device but nothing more. I agree Spiderwoman is a shit character, but the brass at the time pushed her into every book in sight.

Again most of what the MCU was built on is based on a very particular editorial conceit and that was the roster of popular characters Marvel had at the time of Civil War and the Ultimates. Mark Millar wrote that event but Bendis was the editor in chief and he went on to write other shit like Secret Invasion.

A few years before Civil War, even the Avengers themselves were little more than a B team and not really the end all be all eye of the storm of the marvel universe most normalfags pretend to know today.
>>
They should have just went with this story line and adapted it to fit in.

Goddamn this series was shit. How you manage to take a character who's whole thing is that he's amazing at martial arts and goes up against pretty much nothing but other people who are amazing at martial arts and give him the WORST fight scenes out of all the Netflix/Marvel series is beyond me.

Everything felt so goddamn weightless and floaty. Normally you can see a few punches or moves that look like stunt work in a whole fight scene, but with this show it was like 95% of the fighting.

Goddamn does it piss me off because Iron Fist is one of my favorite comic book characters and they did such a pisspoor job with the material.

wasn't that an anthology with multiple iron fists and a war between the capital cities of heaven? that would have been way too autist/actual comic shit and expensive.

Most of his time he did regular martial arts.
He barely knew anything about Chi.

He didn't even get a 30 second lesson on how to recharge your Chi in his 15 years.

>>80730940
His looks is fine. If Marvel wanted him to have a Bruce Lee physique then they should have made it happen. They didn't. They didn't make a lot happen with this series
>>
>>80736371
>They literally explain that his power comes from his Chi not his physical body

His POWER TO HARNESS THE IRON FIST comes from his Chi, not his actual fighting prowess or strength.

Anyone that spent 15 years in a monastery doing pretty much nothing but training and eating vegetables is going to be fucking shredded. Granted they gave the actor like 20 days notice between getting the gig and starting filming, so it's not like he could have done anything about it, but still.
>>
>>80736250
Probably he can relate with Danny being manipulated by Harold. And obviously towards the end he is not really into corporate life anymore so he really doesn't have anything against Danny if he wants to run the company. Ward is my husbando now.

Joy is clearly the most important thing for Ward and Danny showed that he was there to protect both of them.

>Well sir, In Jungle Village, the leader of the Lion's clan Gold Lion is summoned by the Governor and assigned to protect his gold that will be transported through the village. However he is betrayed and murdered by the greedy Silver Lion and Bronze Lion. Gold Lion's favorite son Zen Yi, a.k.a. The X-Blade, seeks revenge and heads to Jungle Village, but he is defeated by Brass Body and rescued by the local Blacksmith Thaddeus. Meanwhile the Gemini Female and the Gemini Male protect the Governor's gold, but they are vanquished by the army of Silver and Bronze Lion. The Blacksmith is abducted by the Lions and has his arms severed by Brass Body. However he is saved by the British Jack Knife, who is the emissary of the Emperor, and he manufactures iron arms for Thaddeus. Meanwhile the Governor sends the Jackal army to fight against the Lions and they hide the gold in the brothel of Madam Blossom. However, Madam Blossom and his girls form an army of black widows and together with Jack, Zen Yi and The Blacksmith, they fight against the Lions.

>>80736425
Hi there! You obviously have no understanding of how the human body works, but that's OK because I'm here to give you a brief run-down!

1) "You are what you eat" is actually quite apt. Obviously it's not as cut-and-dry as that, but in order to become big and muscular you need to eat a lot of calories, particularly protein. Now, from what we were told about MAGICKUNGFUPALACE it doesn't seem like he was eating a particularly high-protein diet.

2) You have to actually use your muscles for them to develop. This is usually done by visiting the gym these days - but other physical activity that utilises and stresses the muscles will work too. However, as previously noted, Danny Rand was taught early on to use his Chi, not his muscles. He moves his body, sure, but the actual energy or strength or power from his attacks are not coming from his muscles.

Combining points 1 & 2 and it's perfectly understandable that his body will not be very muscular, despite being quite skilled in a fight.

Now with all that said he definitely should have looked better, it is TV after all - he doesn't need to be Daredevil-esque or anything, just a bit more muscle and a bit less body fat would have been fine
>>
>>80736636
so which ep did Rza direct? I'm guessing 6
>>
>>80736653
nah the Fist looked good
>>
>>80736640
The game's storyline is literally called the Iron Fist tournament
>>
>>80736468

Kind of? Basic jist is that every 88 years the 8 cities of heaven are aligned and able to meet on the same plane, and during this time they host a big tournament among their respected Living Weapons to see which 'ranking' the cities get and how that effects how they are connected to earth. There's also a side plot about Hydra trying to blow the whole thing up, and the true arc beyond the tournament is that most of the leaders of the 8 cities are breaking rules and creating gateways to earth so they can come and go as they please - something that is basically the highest sin for the cities of heaven.

Oh and Danny blows up a train full of explosives sent by HYDRA to destroy the entire 8 cities since they're all connected during this time...for...reasons.

Then there's a backup story of like 3-4 pages that detail the lives of other various Iron Fists throughout the ages.

Probably would be better for a second season, after thinking and typing this all out.

Hi there! You obviously have no understanding of how the human body works, but that's OK because I'm here to give you a brief run-down!

If you spend 15 years doing nothing but training and eating vegetables, you're going to be absolutely shredded. We're not talking about having big bulky muscles or anything. But it's absurd to think that someone doing 15 years of martial arts training on a very strict diet wouldn't look like...well most high end martial artists who train all their lives.

Not big and muscular like Luke Cage, not stalky and solid like Matt Murdock, but absolutely shredded like Bruce Lee used to be.

Seriously, take 20 seconds and look at some pictures of Bruce Lee in his prime. He didn't get like that from lifting weights, eating oats and doing squats. You honestly think he wasn't doing stress training like push ups, pull ups, sit ups, etc etc as part of his training? Because that's pretty much all you need to do to get shredded if you're not shoving your face full of garbage calories.

>>80737062
The only thing that's similar is the whole martial arts tournament among the various realms.

But instead of realms it's the different cities of Heaven, and it's not for the right to own an entire dimension or whatever like in Mortal Kombat. It's basically just bragging rights and dick swinging for 88 years until the next fight.

The heads of the cities that were opening the gateways to Earth weren't really doing anything bad either, they weren't evil or out to rule anything. They were just sick of having to wait for X amount of years before they could leave their cities and go to Earth so they made it where they could come and go as they please.
>>
>>80736854
I'd enjoy that. But they have to tie things up in New York because of the whole Defenders thing and fighting against the Hand.
>>
>>80737065
That was the best episode though. Mainly fighting and mystical shit with some actual interesting backstory
>>
>>80730940
His build isn't even the worst part, he comes off as a hipster millenial douchbag and his acting skills are pretty sub-par.

>>80737227

>>80737260
To be fair he has pretty shitty script to work with.

>>80737172
mmm, ok that kind of puts the stakes in a better perspective. It kind of sounds like a good premise for a movie or an arc within a season of the show.

yeah but they were going exactly for that look so in that sense he was perfect for the role

>>80737303

Yeah, the 'big stakes' in the arc was the subplot about HYDRA trying to blow up all of the cities of Heaven at once, which could easily be adapted to be about The Hand instead.

Like I said, more I thought about it and typed it out, the more I realized it would make for a much better season 2 after The Defenders S1 is done.

I'm hoping to god his show ends up better than IF. Then again him just being the Punisher already makes it better by default.

All they need to do is have gratuitous amounts of violence, murder-gadgets, and flashbacks to his war days and it'd be great. Probably even better than DD

exactly, that fucker had no business being the iron fist in the first place. Why would the showrunners purposefully show him to be so weak and not take his committment seriously.

I mean, the point in "mystical" stories is that normal people can get abilities that are abnormal through unusually strong focus but within a normal world. The Iron Fist is an exaggerated version of what Shaolin monks can do with a lifetime of training and we already consider that extreme so why is keeping his dick in his pants so hard for this asshole?

>>80737857
then niggers would complain about using the asian as a martial arts expert stereotype. There's no pleasing them.

There's an actual point to Rand being white because he was discriminated against by the monks for being an outsider, but it's not like Iron Fist is a complicated character in the first place.

Someone point it out if I'm asking a stupid question but this is still set right in line with the MCU right? They mention the New York attacks and all.

bruce lee did use weights in his training regimen, but it was on the same tier as Mr. Olympia. i'm not disagreeing with you though, anyone spending time doing physical activity 24/7 and eating a healthy diet will have an extremely low body fat %.

yes, it also doesn't mean every fuckwit that claims to have superpowers actually has superpowers. And also the doc was put there specifically to not believe him and keep him confined. So yeah you're asking some stupid questions.

The shrink was actually open to the idea but simply demanded proof because especially in such a world there would be a lot of delusional people who think they have super powers.

it would have been cool if the plot were like Katanagatari where he fought a particular liutenant from the Hand with some plot based restriction, then in the final 2 episodes he fights them all back with no holds barred to the death. The plot structure of a SNES beat 'em up game. Basically build him up as fearsome insead of getting mall cops to beat him up and limiting the Iron Fist to be a parlor trick.

fucking faggot danny goes around talking about how he's the best fighter in the world and is super disciplined but he's constantly challenged by every average joe he meets and constantly gets pissed off and has tantrums like a little boy

also, i kinda liked him in the first couple episodes when he seemed like a naive young fun guy then later on he tried to be all serious and started trying to do his tough guy action hero voice and it was so cringeworthy it retroactively destroyed the good feelings i had about fun danny

Not really senpai. Most people don't give a shit. The only reason it escalated was Finn Jones being a bitchass on twitter and the stone cold fact that the show sucks dick.
