Rhom Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I watched the rest of the What Ifs last week. They were… fine. But they didn’t have quite the same connection as season 1. I tend to agree with other posters that the best episodes were ones that took an actual film moment and branched off from there. So I liked the Hela and the Ten Rings episode probably the best. I like Captain Carter, but I’m not sure how she became the main character of the series. For a relatively short show, it was enjoyable enough. Spoiler I liked the shot of Loki’s Tree at the end. I never got around to watching the Netflix Marvel shows. I know Daredevil is the best of them. I wonder if I should make an effort to watch it before Echo?

I would also add in Punisher season 1 to your watchlist. Other Netflix shows are optional, Jessica Jones was good in places. Watching them might make you extra disappointed by Echo however.

I wonder if I should make an effort to watch it before Echo? It's really good, as is Jessica Jones. I'm actually pretty sure even the weakest of the three Daredevil seasons will be better than Echo, so it's definitely worth watching in its own right. But is it necessary to watch it to understand what's happening in Echo? I don't think so. Rhom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalbear Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Daredevil season 1 is absolutely worth it to get more kingpin. After that the best one is Jessica Jones season 1, which is probably better than daredevil overall. But has nothing to do with echo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 If netflix had just made Daredevil, JJ and Punisher it would have been a perfect place to stop. And would be held in such high regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveSumm Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I would probably do: Daredevil Season 1 Jessica Jones Season 1 Daredevil Season 2 If you were intrigued enough by Luke Cage in JJ, then Luke Cage Season 1 (starts great, ends badly) Read a synopsis of Iron Fist Season 1 but for the love of god don’t watch it Defenders Punisher Season 1 Daredevil Season 3 That’s all the good seasons of the Netflix stuff, but I agree Echo won’t lean on any of it. But Daredevil is a great show worth watching anyway (it’s annoying that Defenders is kinda Daredevil 2.5 so you’d need to watch it to understand Season 3, but then you kinda need Iron Fist to understand Defenders).

Rhom Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 (edited) Its a shame the Multiverse can't get us a meeting between MCU Steve Rogers and the original Fox Fantastic Four Johnny Storm. Feels like the kind of thing Deadpool 3 should definitely shoot for. Edited January 8 by Rhom Ser Scot A Ellison and Jace, Extat 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of Nick Locarno showing up on Star Trek: Lower Decks and Rutherford commenting about Locarno and Tom Paris “they have the… same… face”… because they were played by the same actor.

Jaxom 1974 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Absolutely dug the first episode of Echo. Bodes well for the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 The first 2 episodes were good. Definitely better than the recent MCU shows. I improved my opinion of the Daredevil fight scene after seeing the entire context. Spoiler I was worried that Maya actually killed Kingpin and the future Daredevil show was just going to be a prequel then, but I'm glad that's not the case. (yet) Also interesting angle with the Choctaw ancestors and apparent magical powers. At first I thought there might have been a connection with the Kahhori What If episode, even though those were Mohawk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a connection to season 2 of What If..., but not narratively - they share one actor in common - Devery Jacobs, who plays Bonnie in Echo.

sifth Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 (edited) Saw the first episode of Echo, it was pretty good. My only real complaint is the fact that it reuses a lot of scenes from the Hawkeye show, that came out two years ago. This wouldn't be that huge of an issue, if not for the fact that Alaqua Cox visually looks a lot more skinny, whenever we cut to a Hawkeye scene. That being said, I imagine this wont be an issue moving forward, now that we are out of the past. Edited January 10 by sifth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martell Spy Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Echo seems great so far. Not as good as a new DD season, but really enjoyable. Liked the local characters and the various stores and scenery were good, too. Loved the train scene. Bit slow to get going, but it takes off nicely. I'll spoiler tag this out of caution, it's not much of a spoiler. Spoiler Just like any DD season it's always highly interesting when you see any part of Kingpin's organization. It was nice to see it from this angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
