I really want to see Neflix shows start to actually LIVE in the MCU world because after 3 series it only ties into the first Avengers movie

And thats about it

What would it take for a show to "LIVE in the MCU world"?

I never understood this complaint, like, these are standalone stories in the universe, they have no reason to tie in to the other stuff.

Presumably constantly walking into Scarlet Witch and Spider-Man and Quake and sitting on Iron Monger's gravestone during a scene while working at Stark Industries during the day and only eating shawarma.

If anything, Punisher is the best possible argument that they should probably not even attempt to refer back to the films.

The MAX run, which is the best the Punisher has ever been, doesn't even acknowledge that there are superheroes at all.

What? You don't want teenage Spider-Man to beat the shit out of Punisher? :p
 
Right now I'm at episode 8 and everything is sooo much better than the first season. Pacing, character development, acting and action have been greatly improved. At this point I'm just bracing for the inevitable, crushing downward spin of Netflix Mahvel.

You've got a good one or two hours left, then bring a good book to read for the last 3 episodes :P Also bring an extra set of clean underwear for episode 9 haha..

And

Going back, the first half of DD S2 was better

Considered that part of the Punisher story, but most definitely true.
 
HELL YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS

Oh wow, Steve Lightfoot as showrunner? I mean, it's hard to tell what was him and what was Bryan Fuller but Hannibal Season 2 and what I've seen of Season 3 were excellent. Pretty excited about this.
 
I just hope they stay away from any mysticism. I think it'll work fine for Iron Fist but it doesn't really fit in with the Punisher.

Concur. Punisher should be ground based focusing on crime. If they want a Marvel character to be a villain, let it be somebody you can still beat up and shoot. Keep that magical, mystical, and cosmic crap out of the Punisher series.

there's barely any in any of the netflix series so far anyway.
 
Please tell me we're getting Ma Gnucci as the villain. Or maybe the villain could be one of those Punisher copycats, like the Elite. And then we can have a bunch of clones of Ma Gnucci. Because that happened and it was fucking weird.

MAX antagonists > than the Knights villains.

Who doesn't want to see Rawlins get his comeuppance live in technicolor?
 
Thought so, Loeb was lying through his teeth. This is going to be amazing, I really hope Barracuda is a villain.

It would be nice if Marvel/Disney let a few f-bombs happen in this one, just a couple when Frank makes shit go down.
 
Called it. Probably no Daredevil Season 3 until after Defenders. Punisher will fill in between Iron Fist and Defenders probably, because it's easier to plot Punisher around the Defender crossover. 2017 is going to be an interesting year for Marvel Netflix.
Are they actually doing 3 shows in 2017.

marvel is doing 3 movies a year starting next year also

2017: Thor 3, Guardians 2, Spidey
2018: BP, Ant Man / Wasp, Infinity War I
2019: Captain Marvel, Infinity War II, Inhumans (?)
 
ideally this would adapt a few max arcs to pad out that 13 episodes. because none of these shows have been able to really make use of the time and this would be the best way to do so finally.

or better yet just cut the episode order down.

Yeah, although to be fair the best part of Daredevil S2 was that it was 2 arcs basically (Punisher arc, Elektra arc), which was a little easier to swallow than the other shows doing a single 13 hour story arc which feels really stretched.
 
also it makes sense with NEtflix pushing more and more their original content + Marvel is the hottest its been right now probably

Then yea punisher makes the most sense for next year and D3 for phase 2
