I can see that, while still keeping the feeling of Iron Fist, by making his chi or whatever be an actual identifiable physical particle that you can tap into with training. I feel like that, or similar, will be the route that they take. Like comic Cyclops's eyes being portals to an energy dimension and not just spontaneous blasts.

Why bother? Adding realism to something that is supposed to be steeped in mysticism seems like a waste.

The guys hands glow with energy just own that shit.

Seems like they'll downplay the magic/mysticism of his powers

Marvel TV so behind on the tim-- Wait, even Agents of SHIELD is going full magic.
 
Grounding in science =/= downplaying magic.

IGN has a few interviews where they still pretty explicitly say he's channeling chi powers, just that they talked to some physicists about how those would actually work if they were real.

Bobby Roberts was my nemesis in MovieGAF. I dispatched him with a fatal blow.

I hope Bobby is feeling better now. He seemed really angry sometimes for no reason. A break from GAF is good for most people!

Ya, Bobby's good people. He's in peak form right now thanks to the election and Rogue One too.

You are the champion of the 10th hidden city Lamesville
 
As far as The Immortal Weapons go The Bride, Fat Cobra, and Prince of Orphans or the really the only ones that stretch the budget

The "Immortal Weapons" are going to be a bunch of underground cage fighter champions each representing a different gang from Chinatown. They'll namedrop the capital cities of heaven with the gang names. Danny will have to fight his way through the underground tournament to get information he needs on his father's killer.

I already regret posting that. If that really happens I apologize. >_<

I like it! Let's keep things dark and gritty.

Or just remake Bloodsport.
Can we do that

For penance buy 5 tickets too the next transformers movie. 7 tickets if it has a weird cameo from a Chinese celebrity .
 
For whatever reason I get more the sense that the Marvel Netflix stuff is building into the crazy stuff rather than having it right away. Basically following the film model where Iron Man started fairly grounded and now we've come to the point where Doctor Strange can be a thing.

I am not sure why they are taking this strategy with Netflix but I do think we'll see the "true comic" version of characters like Black Mariah, Misty Knight, Iron Fist, etc. eventually. It's sort of like how Daredevil didn't really put on a costume sort of resembling his until the last episode of S1...and didn't put on his actual costume until S2. And how they didn't really go all in on the ninjas in S1 but did in S2.

I feel like they put Nuke into JJ S1 to lead him down his batshit path in Defenders or JJ S2.

I'd definitely prefer they just embrace things instead of "ease people in" with a season, because I don't think people really need that ease in. But these first seasons of shows have still been enjoyable enough even if it feels like they're holding back.

The small CGI budgets for these shows probably have something to do with it as well.
 
Gotta love the Netflix Marvel power set though.

Daredevil - Punches people really hard, does awesome flips.
Jessica Jones - Punches people really hard, jumps really high.
Luke Cage - Punches people (and walls) really hard, deflects bullets.
Iron Fist - Punches everything really hard, has a glowing fist.
Punisher - Shoots every motherfucker.

Clearly one of these is superior to all others.
