Marvel's Iron Fist

They'll change their name to the Bird because it will transpire that Gao is the Crane Mother but also was the middle finger

appropriate seeing as how her coming back will feel like a middle finger to some fans.

It works on so many levels!

Honestly, I'd rather Gao come back than Kingpin. She's fun

And not see Fisk's reckoning?

I like Gao, she's Netflix's answer to Phil Coulson sure, but I want to see Fisk more. In terms of MCU villains I'd rank him Fisk > Kilgrave > Kilmonger > Ultron > Killian > everybody else.

I hope Madam Gao comes back. Besides the fact she's the fucking best, she's basically Crane Mother and Crane Mother is the benefactor of Steel Serpent (a.k.a Danny's Iron Fist buddy from K'un-Lun).

i thought Claire was the Netflix Coulson.

Claire is netflix Coulson (if more useless), Wilson Fisk is Netflix Loki, Madam Gao is Netflix...uh....

There's almost nothing Fisk can do to Matt that Matt won't try to do to himself first

Having Fusk ruin Matt's life is like shooting a drowning puppy that also has an inoperable brain tumor

Fisk is more like the Thanos of the Netflix shows. He's got connections to the villains of Luke Cage (Turk runs in both Harlem and Hell's Kitchen circles; Fisk and Mariah share the same crooked lawyer), Iron Fist, and The Defenders (Midland Circle was a product of the Hand's work with Fisk).

I want Madame Gao to return, but not necessarily representing the Hand anymore now that that's collapsed (figuratively and literally). Just gathering up the remnants, giving up on dragon bones and resurrection, and rebranding it as her own evil organization focused on distributing heroin, infiltrating corporations, and frequently reminding Danny Rand his office has terrible feng shui.

And looking for a way to Kun Lun.

It'd be funny if Danny finds his way back to K'un L'un and Gao is already there

Funny to me.

Seems like they've held the wrap party for season 2 (though they're still finishing up shooting). I think this may be an indicator that Iron Fist is going to have a shorter season than the other shows, seeing as Daredevil season 3 is still filming and that show got a month head start on Iron Fist (and is wrapping soon, based on Charlie Cox's convention circuit schedule). Though I'm to guess that Daredevil season 3 will be coming out first, seeing as it was announced last year that Jessica Jones Season 2, Luke Cage Season 2 and Daredevil Season 3 would have 2018 releases. There were no dates given for Iron Fist Season 2 nor The Punisher Season 2. So I think we'll get Daredevil after Luke Cage season 2, and hold Iron Fist over to early 2019, with January being a likely option. The series usually need like at least 6/7 months for post production. Plus, if Daredevil Season 3 is debuting in October or November, Netflix will want a few months of breathing space between it and Iron Fist.

OK, this from Finn Jones' Instagram.

So how long before he gets buried in negative responses?

I'm thinking half a day at most. At least he seems to be enjoying his work.

As long as his co-workers appreciate the gesture. I hope that he is right about the season. I finally want a second season of a Netflix show I actually like from start to finish.

If you ignore the second half of it, Daredevil Season 2 was pretty good.

I think most of the Iron Fist haters would rather just stay away from the show than follow Jones all the way to Instagram just to heckle him.

I think after the disaster that was Inhumans a few people actually warmed up to the series. Or at least thought that a second Season deserved another chance (contrary to Inhumans).

Fans have gone to far greater lengths to harass actors they dislike.

I mean, I heard there was a thing where Shia Lebouf kept putting up anti Trump flags and Trump supporters actually used satellite positioning and shit to figure out where the flags were so they could promptly take them down.

So yeah, I can believe that people with enough raw hate towards not just the Iron Fist Netflix series, but Finn Jones himself (who kinda shot himself in the foot with regards to the fans) will go out of their way to shit on him on Instagram.

I admit, I'm also kinda hoping they do better, though I doubt it will make much a difference. I'm assuming a lot of people no longer care about Iron Fist and will just avoid it.

Yeah but those are Trump supporters from 4Chan, dude. Those guys are peak asshole troll. I'm not seeing anyone attacking Finn Jones and I highly doubt that's going to happen over something so innocuous.

Well that's good to hear.

I mean, whatever mistakes he made, I do believe he wants to give people something they can enjoy.

He's succeeded: I love reading about how much people hate him and his show.

....'scuse me. That's a red devil with a pitchfork smiling at me. He's saying ''see you soon'' for some reason.

Mostly because Inhumans showed just how badly Scott Buck could botch a show in such a way to make Iron Fist look decent by comparison. That's honestly a testament towards Scott Buck's sheer awfulness as a showrunner that Iron Fist, for all of its faults and failings, is somehow made decent-ish by the failure of Inhumans.

I admit, I don't have high hopes for the second season, but frankly there's nowhere to go but up with Buck gone.

This is a tired conversation but I sincerely want Shang Chi. I read a trade of his earliest material and he's delightful

Or rather his stick in the mud everything I knew was wrong demeanor is a delight when contrasted against a bizarre universe

Here he is trying to deal with his father's organization splintering into civil war and suddenly he has to babysit a cab driver that is Groucho Marx for some reason
