Hmmm. ep 6
Makes sense. I just came to the scene in episode 6 where he gets a whole restaurant to be quite. I think they also mention that it's time and distance. So the further you are away from him, the effect will wear off.
And is getting bigger.

Episode 6
Yo damn, Kilgrave is ruthless.
Interesting. I wonder what's on the flash drive.
Ha, that Backseat Freestyle in the greenhouse. And dayum, Luke was playing no games with them goons. I was hoping one of them would pull a knife and try stabbing him, only to see the knife bend or break. The look on his face would've been priceless.
Oh man, the bus scene.
And what the hell is Trinity about to do with that fetus?
Also, I knew who's house that was the moment he wanted to buy it. Kil is reaching new heights in the stalker game.

Creeped out by what?

Random aside, but I can't believe how much I enjoy Trish Walker. This show has done a lot to make her a likable character when most others would have made her so annoying.

Comic wise Luke is way stronger then Cap. Not sure so far in this series seeing that he hasn't really shown how strong he is.
However Cap can't
Punch a bus
Watched the first four episodes and I'm really enjoying it. Great tone and style. Ritter is wonderful in the title role but Colter and Tennant elevate the show to god-tier status imo, they're so good!
(ep 2)
(ep 3)
screamed at the bar fight scene in ep 2 with Luke showing off incredible amounts of swagger, taking those hits like they nothing, and tossing folks aside with no effort
felt real chills when Kilgrave went in that family's home and mindcontrolled everybody with no hint of remorse or care whatsoever
So in a fight do you think MCU Luke could beat MCU Captain?

I hope this gets better. I look like I'm in the minority, but 2 episodes in and I'm not digging it. My biggest complaints so far:
1) Writing lacks subtlety
2) Ritter is not a good actress (Not terrible) or the dialogue she is given is not great. Not sure which yet.
3) This is picky, but Jessica answered the phone twice in the first episode, and while on it we can clearly see it is still ringing. She breaks into a room at one point and we hear the chain lock snap as the door opens, but the broken chain link is already dangling there motionless....it was obvious it was simply broken and they started filming instead of making the damn thing break on screen when she opened the door. And her figuring out in episode 2
Something is just off in this show, and I don't know what yet. Luke is only likeable part at moment.

Killgrave's weakness is....what? He is weak against the same thing we all are---bullets! Why was discovering something that would be a pain in the ass to use against him a eureka moment?

So, like, if Luke Cage got appendicitis, could they do anything? I can't imagine surgery is an option.

Try to get in touch with Ant-Man I guess. I bet something similar happened in the comics

Episode 4: I can't believe that scene where
. Felt gross.
Trish had to apologize to Kilgrave on air

Yo, Ep 12.
Totally did not see that twist with Cage coming
I think the problem with the fight scenes is that... well, neither Jessica nor Luke could really fight anyone. They keep throwing people around because if they actually punched them, there was a decent chance it would kill them outright.

Why does this show have so much sex, but no nudity?
Netflix/Marvel.

Man this show goes places. I enjoyed DD a bit more but this is a hell of a show. Kilgrave is creepy as fuck. loving Luke Cage. got 3 episodes left.
Fair point since they are brawlers who get by on brute force.
A little jarring to switch from Daredevil to this nonetheless

They are around Spider-Man level strength and he punches thugs all day.

I think Luke Cage is first then DD S2? Both are filming so I can see a Spring/Summer thing with Iron Fist coming Winter 2016 hopefully. Then have a JJ S2 sometime inbetween all that

You ain't subtle bro.
I feel like we will get JJ S2 in that ---- slot.
Maybe...
DD S2
Cage
JJ S2
IF
Cage S2
IF S2
Defenders.
That or maybe they will go right from Iron Fist into Defenders.
Punisher.
Sure that wouldn't be until after Defenders?
Then again, wasn't the original plan was just for one season of each leading up to Defenders?

Welp.
Internet reset and killed my three paragraph long post of the show thus far.
Few more episodes to go.
