EP 4 spoiler/kinda
I loved that rap intro montage to Long Live the Chief.

This show certainly has the best soundtrack of the Marvel/Netflix line up.
Thank ya. The difference in POV (being black essentially) might be enough for me to give it a spin. I thought JJ got pretty dumb but I appreciated that it was trying to say stuff about abuse and dependency.

4K for four K, you know what I'm saying?
Only the most humble gaming enthusiasts on GAF.
For all I know you might be a model with your own cult to be honest.

I think Cap could outsmart Cage. But Caps shield will pretty much be useless against him. If Luke gets a grip on Cap. it's over.
OK, maybe not as durable, but near.

A fuckin' badass line.
"You speak to me as if you aren't in the presence of death
A fuckin' badass line.
Only have watched partway through the first episode. I really like it thus far.
Can a a show have swagger? Like legitimate barely trying swagger. If so, this one has it in spades.
The casting is really good, and while I definitely get why people do not like the lead's acting, between the writing and the rest of the cast, I barely notice.
Also, fuck me, but the music is good.

Heh, I'm comfortable in my skin with a beautiful wife and son. My dog's also incredibly handsome. Me? I'm a type. Rough around the edges I think is the kindest way I can describe it.

Spoilers for Ep.7:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Fucking hell, that was hard to watch. Cottonmouth is legitimately one of the top villains of the MCU. Incredibly rich, deep and tragic character. A true villain. Not a caricature but a fully fledged, complex monster. And he goes down...Damn that's unexpected. Diamondback better be one badass mofo to replace him properly T_T
That scene was so damn good. Alfre Woodard killed it.

Episode 7 - Jesus Christ!
Necessary? No. It will help to fill some parts though.
I'm where you are basically. Just seems to be references for the most part that may go over your head.
The narrative is establishing Luke as his own thing.
First ep was cool. A bit cheesy at times, but given the roots of the character it's not a particularly big detraction. I like Mike Coulter, man. His Luke Cage (as he also was in the JJ series) is more understated than I'm used to reading the comics, but he makes it work.
Mahershala Ali is really great, as expected. Not a fan of the guy in the sunglasses, but we'll see how that turns out before calling it.

Is there a lot of sex and nudity in this show? I heard jessica jones had some explicit stuff but i wonder where this show falls in.

I really like the chess player. He had a small, but memorable role as a blind crime boss in season 3 of Banshee.

If I'm not mistaken, he is also in HBO's the wire.
Edit: Nope I'm wrong it's "paid in full".

I'll admit I rolled my eyes a little when some of the reviews came in and said this show was unapologetically Black. But I'm eating crow right now.
Spoilers up to Episode 5:
Barbershop talk starts off the show, you got Mariah saying Cottonmouth is color struck, and Luke got a tailored suit by Dapper Dan. And don't even get me started on the music.
Just serve me a plate of crow.
Large fries and soda?
Also had a role as a hacker on Mr. Robot
Rooting for a Marvel villain with their track record?
Let's hope they don't disappoint you.
Agreed! Just finished first episode and I got goosebumps at the end. This is just so smooth and cool like jazz.
