Marvel Studios Echo

It was ok the first episode started really well. The rest of the origin story was enjoyable but nothing ground breaking unfortunately.

KingPin was kinda wasted imo and the finale was a little weak. It was a little low key with the superhero elements.

Thought it was quite good, overall once you get past the necessity of subtitles for the sign language parts (which is basically 90% of dialogue)

Disney hit the trifecta though with this one, disabled, a person of colour and a women. They must have watched South Park and forgot to make her lame and gay. /s

Oh god, reached the end, what a god-awful, boring, drawn-out piece of garbage. I haven't seen something in quite some time that is this slow and badly paced, I dread to think how much worse it would have been at 8 episodes. Even with all the cutting down, it felt like it was 3 episodes worth of story dragged out to 5.

So many parts were so lame and downright cringe that I almost felt shame on their behalf that the Choctaw Nation would allow themselves to be attached to this project. I'm sure the hefty donation by Disney to the Chahta Foundation Fund greased those wheels, I guess almost anyone's endorsement can be bought.

The only two parts that I liked were the Daredevil fight (which was only one scene at the beginning) and the flashback to the past at the beginning of episode 2. I would watch a series set solely in the past about what Native Americans lived like 3000 years ago.

The fight scenes apart from the aforementioned first one were badly edited, flashing the previous "ancestors" while fighting killed the momentum and flow of the fight and made it headache inducing. Echo is a Mary Sioux!

The conclusion of the last episode was by far the worst. The resolution is ridiculous and it's a pity Vincent D'Onofrio is quickly burning through all the goodwill and undoing all the wonderful work built up through the Netflix Daredevil show. I implore anyone who is sitting on the fence about watching this. Don't. Save yourself

Lame and gay is the plotline for S2 apparently.

Tbh I didn't think the so called adult material, was very adult. Hopefully the Punisher won't be as bad as this.

Marvel just made the Netflix Daredevil series Canon so good chance they incude Punisher/Jon Berthnal. Lets just forget Ironfist lol.

Ironfist was The Sopranos compared to most of Marvel D+ TV shows. I watched it recently and it was far more enjoyable than She Hulk it only looks bad compared to Punisher and Daredevil which frankly completely nailed the genre for TV.
 
I ended up watching this because my wife wanted to give it a go, thankfully it was short.

I feel asleep during episodes 2 and 3. Not sure if that was boredom or actual tiredness.

Episode 4 was probably the highlight as it was mainly Echo and Kingpin chatting.

Episode 5 was totally anti-climactic.

I wouldn't recommend it.
 
I finally polished this off my watch list over the weekend, felt like a different Kingpin compared to his previous outings in the other shows.

Fair play with them actually using the lack of sound in certain scenes.
 
I know it's Marvel and not to be taken too seriously, but a deaf 'operative'/assassin or whatever Kingpin used her as would be pretty rubbish.

Daredevil might be blind but can basically see everything in his orange glowing sense.

He got super powers, so all his other senses are heighten. He basically a human radar. I am still baffled what Echo's power is meant to be if any.
