I really enjoyed it actually! I was surprised at how many changes they made from the book though, for some reason I had it in my head that it was going to be a pretty close retelling of it. One thing that stood out to me was I remember (although disclaimer that it has been a few years since I read it now!)( Read more... )


And it’s just been confirmed today that The Punisher and Jessica Jones are both cancelled, with Netflix not even having the decency to wait for JJ’s third season to even air first 😡 This open letter from Jeph Loeb seems somewhat hopeful though that Disney might be having discussions to continue them on another platform? It seems like a no-brainer if they want goodwill and a big launch for expanding Hulu internationally

Netflix Orders 'Marvel's The Punisher' to Series

Netflix has ordered a full first season of “Marvel’s The Punisher,” continuing their unprecedented collaboration with Marvel Television.

Jon Bernthal will reprise his role as Frank Castle, introduced to fans earlier this year in the second season of the Netflix original series “Marvel’s Daredevil,” with Steve Lightfoot (“Hannibal”) serving as Executive Producer and Showrunner in addition to writing the series’ first two episodes.


Hmm not sure how I feel about this at the moment tbh. I think he worked really well as a supporting character, but I can't help feeling like a series focused on the Punisher as the main character might end up feeling a bit one-dimensional? Especially if it's the usual 13 episodes in length, I could see it working better as more of a 6-8 episode mini-series actually

For someone who isn't normally crazy about comic book films or tv shows, I really enjoyed Daredevil!

( Spoilers for all 13 episodes )


Those are my thoughts so far anyway, does anyone have any recs for music video's or fic from the show? :)
