In 0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:50.880 this long period of time that we're all living through, 0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:55.760 we are going back to twenty fifteen to the now 0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:59.480 canon Netflix Dead Evil series and we will be recapping 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:03.200 it and talking about it and digging in in preparation 0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:07.520 for the upcoming sequel series on Disney Plus Dad Evil 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:08.319 Born Again. 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:16.920 Let's dive in first some context on Daredevil. The character 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.800 debuted in nineteen sixty four creation of Stan Lee and 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.720 Bill Everett, appearing in It's his own solo title of 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:31.000 just immediately Off Jump Daredevil Number one. And one thing 0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:35.399 that is immediately clear from reading back to you know 0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:39.319 the original Daredevil runs is how much this is an 0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:40.800 attempt to clone Spider Man. 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:44.039 Dude, it's so funny, Like they are like, what if 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:45.160 he's like Spider Man? 0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:47.680 But he's like serious, what if he's Spider Man? 0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:51.280 They like something weird and bad happened to him, Like 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:51.960 I do. 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:53.760 I love a street level hero. 0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:57.360 But as we know, it is quite notorious in the 0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.480 comic book industry that kind of every ten years Marvel 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:02.640 will try and remake Spider Man. 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:04.680 And the most successful version. 0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:07.160 They've had of it is Kamala Khan, where they actually 0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:11.240 created a completely different, completely new street level Haroy that 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:14.360 people fell for. But yes, that Devil's definitely in that space, 0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:16.520 and I think that is why there's a lot of 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:18.800 crossover between the characters. 0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:22.400 Yeah, that you find him and Spider Man fighting about. 0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:26.440 But something important about that devil. He's Catholic, Okay, and 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:27.160 that's gonna. 0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:27.920 Come off for altholic. 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:33.600 He's very Irish Catholic. The show Daredevil the adaptation was 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:37.600 released in twenty fifteen on Netflix, uh and it was 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:43.239 helmed by Showner Or Stephens de Night, who gave us Spartacus. 0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:46.720 The Spartacus television show on Stars. 0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:47.960 The League Gets Stars Network. 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:56.360 The beleaguered, very much beleaguered. Stars Network and Daredevil immediately 0:02:56.800 --> 0:03:02.120 made an impression on people because of its incredible action scenes, 0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:08.040 including the now iconic one shot Ish Hallway fight from 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:11.679 episode three of season one. It's fantastic. I think it's 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:14.359 what's so striking about it watching a bag is it's 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:16.400 like you don't see superheroes get tired. 0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:17.799 And I love that about Matt Murty. 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.200 Yah, he is fucking tied, like he's tired. 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:22.480 I'm tied halfway. 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.000 I'm halfway through this fight and I am exhaust something else. 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:28.680 I think that probably really spoke to people, and that 0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:35.800 interestingly that MCU had set people up to take in 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.560 in a way they were maybe more open to after 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:40.800 the kind of lead into the Avengers movies. 0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:43.640 This is an incredibly slow bun show. 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.640 It sets up a lot of the which have now 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:48.800 become memes, but a lot of the tropes of a 0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:52.440 prestige TV adaptation of a comic book or a book 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:55.560 that you love. This man does not get his costume 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.480 till the last episode, Like he doesn't get the dead 0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:00.560 of a costume till the last episode. We don't mean 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:03.600 Wilson Fisk till the end of episode three properly where 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.280 it's revealed that he is the villain. There is so 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:11.400 much work and patience that is put into this show, 0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:13.320 and we will talk about how that works good and 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:15.480 bad as we get into it. But I do think 0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.400 that at the time there was nothing else like it. 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:23.320 I so deeply remember the reactions by friends. It's still 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.600 at the time when Netflix's binge model is seen as. 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:27.560 A positive thing. 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:31.359 It's also, you know, three years after the Avengers and 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:36.040 suddenly we're getting to see like, how does a normal 0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:42.640 person deal with living in New York during the Chatari invasion? 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:44.479 And what I think is really. 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:48.760 Interesting is the MCU and the creators and Drew Goddard 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:49.920 and Steven st. 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:50.240 Knight. 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.839 Their response was, well, it would obviously be really hard. 0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:57.560 Here are the tough, working class neighborhoods that have been destroyed. 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.720 Which is really funny because now, almost ten years later, 0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.160 we all know thanks to many hilarious TikTok creators and stuff, 0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:07.880 that the way we all see it as like, oh Man, 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:11.600 like Superman, smash my car again, back all my car insurance, 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:14.040 Like there's a more comedic read that I think that 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:18.719 fans enjoy. But it was very different to see a 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.560 show like this that features so many different comic book 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:26.240 characters and it just plays it entirely serious and straight 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:27.200 the whole way down. 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:32.479 Very straight, completely grounded, very very little superpowers in evidence, 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:36.320 although of course Matt has heightened senses, but you forget 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:40.039 about them a lot. This show is connected to the 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:44.320 Wider MCU and was seen as in very interesting ways, 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:46.720 and it was seen as being something like a farm system. 0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:52.520 In twenty thirteen, then CEO and now current CEO again 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:56.120 Bob Eiger said that, you know, stuff works on Netflix. 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:59.840 Quote it's quite possible they could become feature films, which 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:03.760 a Serrando's also echoed, So that was kind of seen 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:05.720 as the model. Hey, if this hits there, maybe we 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.040 bring them in to the wider MCU, which was then 0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:11.119 reaching of truly frothy boil. 0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:15.080 Jeff Lobe, who was. 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.800 Kind of at the helm of all things Marvel Television 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:23.119 live action television for a long time, said in twenty 0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:26.120 fourteen that quote, within the Marvel universe, there are thousands 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.760 of heroes, but the Avengers are here to save the universe, 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.400 and dared Devil is here just to save your neighborhood. 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:34.240 It does take place in the Marvel cinematic universe. It's 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:36.480 all connected, but that doesn't necessarily mean we could look 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:38.320 up in the sky and see Iron Man. It's a 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:40.720 different part of New York, but we have not that 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.599 we have not yet seen in the Marvel movies. Also, 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:47.480 Jeff Lobe was also you know, running Agents of Shield 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:50.920 around this time too, which was connected ish. 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:54.160 And at some point it seemed very connected, but then 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:55.320 that was kind of pulling and. 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:59.600 Other times was like nah, yeah, yeah exactly. And then 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:04.040 in twenty fifteen, Lobe talked about crossovers, whether we'd ever 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.320 see crossovers from MCU to ABC tonight. 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:09.960 And he basically by that point, which I think is interesting, 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.160 is over those two years, it's gone from yeah, this 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.680 could be a thing that will happen to now kind 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.360 of being like we need to earn it, we don't want. 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:18.280 To push it, you know. 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:22.240 And he talked about how Captain America doing the crossover 0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.400 in Thought two that kind of funny. Loki cameo Bruce 0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:27.400 Banner at the end of Iron Man three, and the 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:30.000 audience needs to understand who the characters are and what 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:32.880 the world is before you start co mingling him, is 0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.720 what he said, And it's funny because Jeff Loo, as 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:37.680 much as I hate to give him any credit, he 0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.800 was obviously onto something because it took nine years. 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.600 It took nine years. Well, you know, love. 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:47.160 We'll get into this maybe in a different episode later, 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.680 but with Jeff Lobe, the highs are really high and 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:52.760 the lows are really correct. 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:55.920 On every level. I think about his own career level. 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.760 Whether it's comics or television, it's it's both. 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.040 The things he gave you, you know. 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:07.640 Some of the greatest Batman's stories you've ever seen. 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:08.880 And he also. 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:12.520 Gave you, you know, the Ultimates three, which is one of 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:16.880 the worst things that anybody's ever seen. Anyway, let's get 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:19.520 into Daredevil Season one the recap. 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:23.800 It opens in a post Battle. 0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:27.000 Of New York World. New York is still recovering from 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:30.920 the Chatari invasion, and this is the perfect time for 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:34.640 organized crime gangs in New York to start making moves. 0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:38.880 You know, construction is needed, new investment is needed, New 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:41.640 money is pouring in government money that. 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.760 Means lots to steal. 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:48.920 And there's really no one looking out for the little 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:50.280 guy except for. 0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:53.960 Matt Murdoch uh. 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:57.480 A blind lawyer by day crime fighter by night, powered 0:08:57.480 --> 0:09:01.120 by heightened senses, and also, as we as he mentions, 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.840 and as many other characters mentioned throughout this season, an 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.000 immensely powerful sense of catholic. 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.760 This man is so guilty at all times. 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.120 Yes, his Catholic guilt is so strong, and you know what, 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.240 I just want to give him a hug and says, Okay, 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.440 it's okay, Matt, You're doing all right. 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:23.439 Matt is the son of a former boxer who passed away, 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:28.640 and he spends his days practicing law with his best 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:34.319 friend Foggy, defending you know, the poorest inhabitants citizens of 0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:38.800 New York City and mostly his Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, and 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.280 at night he cosplays basically as Batman. 0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:47.160 And just kneels a show people on the streets, people 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.840 in that And this is where immediately you feel like 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:53.760 something is completely different from everything else you've seen in 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:56.400 the MCU before and even still really to this day, 0:09:56.480 --> 0:10:01.199 Like the violence in this show is so brutal and so. 0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:03.440 Realistic, and it's much more in that. 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:06.200 You know, there's no surprise that they have a world 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:10.600 famous you know, corridor scene in this because it's very feels, 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:13.680 very heavily influenced by movies like Old Boy, these kind 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:17.960 of like revenge thrillers where you are always punching two 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:21.240 times great, Oh my god, I love that movie.

You can't say his name, 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:27.720 and in fact. 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:29.560 And how much of a hold he has on New 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:33.679 York City really even until the final episode of the show, 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:35.800 which I think is really interesting. 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:41.120 And in fact, we only access him over the early 0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:46.920 episodes through his chief Lieutenant James, who is like the 0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:50.240 guy who goes to talk to the gangs. The point 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:55.200 person to keep Wilson insulated from everything. Because Wilson, on 0:12:55.240 --> 0:13:00.240 the surface is just a businessman. He's a philanthropist, he's 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:05.600 an art lover, he's an avid cur he loves culinary guy. 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:09.679 He loves this guy loves a bottle of wine and 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:14.959 to be chopping it up in the kitchen. He loves that. 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:20.160 But what's he doing behind the scenes. He's running the 0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:26.640 ultimate gentrification scam, using organized crime the various groups as 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:31.480 his kind of like personal real estate development firm in 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:34.480 order to force inhabitats out of buildings that he intends 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:38.199 to buy and then flip from major major profits. His 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:42.480 plan one to control the Hell's kitchen by bribing everybody, 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:47.160 strong arming landlords, and killing people when necessary to use 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:53.920 his crime syndicate, which includes multiple organized crime bosses including 0:13:54.040 --> 0:14:00.520 Madam Gow, mystical drug Crumpkin loves loves a hot cup 0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:05.680 of tea Nobu, high ranking yakuza warrior who fights like 0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:10.040 a dark soul's boss, and Leland Owsley, who is kind 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:13.200 of like his money guy, the finance guy. It's like 0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.440 he works for Wilson, but he's also got a mind 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.760 of his own to wipe out and he uses these 0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:22.119 people to wipe out all of his competition and basically 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.800 lock down his illegal control of the city, and then 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:31.360 step three, through his relationship with the beguiling art world 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:37.080 impresario Vanessa, to launder his public image as just like, Hey, 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:39.920 I'm just like a guy who loves art and fine 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:44.920 dining and look at my wonderful look at my wonderful 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:47.240 girlfriend Vanessa, who is on the up and up and 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:49.840 is well respected in the art world. She would never 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.960 be involved with anything criminal. Therefore, I am clean. Wilson 0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:53.840 fiske love me? 0:14:54.680 --> 0:15:09.040 Yeah. 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:11.240 Now, Wilson. 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:17.800 Actually really loves Vanessa like it, is immediately intrigued by 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:19.360 her when he meets her at the gallery. 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:20.760 And this is all going great. 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:22.920 His plan is all going great, except for the fact 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:26.440 that there's this quote man in the mask who is 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:31.320 running around at night beating up all of the organized 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:36.520 crime henchmen that Goo and Nobu and Owsley and Wilson 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:41.440 are using to force people out of their homes and 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:45.960 beat up the common folks. It's annoying at first, but 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.560 it starts to really cut into the profits over time, 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:55.360 and Wilson is getting increasingly aggravated. Matt, meanwhile, is you know, 0:15:55.440 --> 0:16:00.800 going through all of his various personal problems, giving his 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:05.400 Catholic guilt. With every single episode, we get various flashbacks 0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:09.360 to how he came to be Daredevil, how he got 0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:14.480 his powers. We meet his mentor, Stick, the irascible blind 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:21.280 mentor Stick, who is not a nice guy at all, 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.200 but definitely help Matt with some very important things. And 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:28.120 as this is happening, Matt begins to really take a 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:35.160 bite into Wilson's criminal organization, and Karen is providing important 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:42.760 evidence to the muck racking muckraking reporter Ben Urick of 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:50.200 Union Allied's vast criminal conspiracy and how it involves the police, 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:56.800 city politicians, and more. Fisk is starting to get really annoyed. Now, 0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:59.800 he's just starting to get really aggravated by all of this. 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:05.760 He's sick of this. The final domino falls when there's 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:09.280 a couple of things that happened. First, Leland Owsley and 0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:13.919 Madam gow feeling like, you know what, Wilson is getting 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:22.520 too His attention is too much on Vanessa Jealous. 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.840 Jealous, stop paying us so much attention. 0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:28.480 I got this any of your business. 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:30.720 Like treat this woman. 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:36.560 There's literally multiple liciversations about how they're like maybe to distracted. 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:42.040 It's interesting how much this mirrors like sticks advice to 0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:44.399 Matt also where it's like, listen, you can't have anybody 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:46.840 in your life, you can't have any romantic entanglements. 0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:48.920 Like it's like that speech from Heat. 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:52.080 You gotta be You got to be disconnected from everything 0:17:52.880 --> 0:17:54.600 in order to focus on what you need to do. 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:57.080 And that's how Gal and leland Owsley feel the I 0:17:57.119 --> 0:18:01.800 feel like listen, Wilson's got like lovey dovey eyes and 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:08.040 we can't get him to focus on business. So they 0:18:08.119 --> 0:18:17.240 take the extremely unwise path by trying to basically assassinate Vanessa, 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:19.639 using poison to make it look like someone's trying to 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:24.760 kill Fisk. Vanessa goes into the hospital, Fisk is enraged, 0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:28.520 he kills land Owsley. This draws the attention of the FEDS, 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:32.240 and now the heat is really on for Fisk. The 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:37.119 Feds move in. Fisk is like looking for an escape plan. 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:42.280 He has a shotgun marriage to Vanessa, Yeah, going on. 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:44.320 So many good things, and then he's like, I need 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:47.920 to escape. But in the best. 0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:51.400 Wilson Fisk like Vincent Dinofrio performance of your Lifetime, I 0:18:51.440 --> 0:18:53.600 love you and I say that as someone who knows 0:18:53.720 --> 0:18:57.119 hubs criminal intent. That's one of the best like procedural 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.520 shows out. But you've done your time in many good shows. 0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:03.480 But you are Wilson Fisk, like the man you are 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:06.760 in this l He's like, I'm Wilson. 0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:09.120 Fisk, and I've got to escape this police fan. 0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:12.880 So I'm gonna give like a three minute monologue where 0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:17.680 I'm just telling these guys a story about nothing to 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:21.000 in my dulcet tones, and they're all listening to me. 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:21.840 But it's all a. 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:25.960 Ploy because like every corrupt cop in the whole city 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:27.840 is coming to break him out. And that's when you 0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:31.240 really realize that, like Wilson Fisk has so many more 0:19:31.280 --> 0:19:34.399 people under his thumb and in his employ than we 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:38.600 even know. He walks out after a firefight, just straight 0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:40.720 into the street like it's not even an issue. And 0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:45.760 if there wasn't a certain man fueled by Catholic guilt 0:19:45.800 --> 0:19:49.920 and horniness, Matt Murdoch, he would have probably been able 0:19:49.960 --> 0:19:51.639 to escape. But of course they have to have that 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:54.480 final showdown and it is like so good. 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:57.800 Yes, So the Union allied scheme is collapsed, the Feds 0:19:57.800 --> 0:20:02.359 are on his tail, and Matt Burdock is really mad 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:07.160 because Kingpin killed ben Urine for revealing all this stuff, 0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:12.240 and so they have a big, big how do you 0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:15.600 do fight in the back alley as Wilson Fisk is 0:20:15.640 --> 0:20:20.880 trying to escape his pehouse and is a brutal, brutal 0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:24.960 fight with Matt finally like applying the couda grass by 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:28.800 like doing a leaping like action Wilson. 0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:29.720 And it's all red. 0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:32.639 Yeah, he's got his He's fully Daredevil now in his 0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:37.200 Daredevil suit, and so the Kingpin is down. He gets 0:20:37.240 --> 0:20:40.720 put under arrest by a cop that Daredevil had helped 0:20:40.720 --> 0:20:43.120 out previously. He was about to arrest. Daredevil is like, hey, 0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:44.879 remember when I helped you out? Why don't you just 0:20:45.119 --> 0:20:47.640 forget like I was ever here? Just arrest Wilson Fisk 0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:49.280 and the cop is like fine. 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:51.719 I'm like you're not gonna live very long, my friend, like, 0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:54.240 don't risk you a loud guess guy like come on. 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:58.879 Meanwhile, Vanessa is at the helipad being like, where is 0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:01.280 my love? Where is Wilson? He never shows up, so 0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:05.840 she leaves. Later on, setting up season two, Wilson Fisk 0:21:06.000 --> 0:21:09.000 is in jail. Matt, Foggy and Karen have their new 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:13.840 offices and they are calling their firm, Nelson and Murdoch. 0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:17.520 That is the speed recap of season one, and let's 0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:20.680 just talk about what we thought. First of all, we 0:21:20.720 --> 0:21:23.199 got to talk because we this is a show that 0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:26.880 is I think it's trademark is its fight scenes. We 0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:29.960 talked about it, and to me, I think what makes 0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:35.119 this so unlike anything else in Marvel even now, is 0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:41.240 the fact that because Matt he has the heightened senses, 0:21:41.280 --> 0:21:44.320 but he's just a guy, a very very well trained guy, 0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:47.119 a peak athlete. You know, if I'm thinking back to 0:21:47.160 --> 0:21:52.560 my Marvel Handbook to the Marvel Universe, and you know 0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:55.720 in the in the Daredevil section, it would say under 0:21:55.720 --> 0:22:02.840 powers and skills like peak endurance and strength of a human. 0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:05.119 Athlete. 0:22:06.160 --> 0:22:11.440 So he's unlike other figures in the MCU who would 0:22:11.440 --> 0:22:14.120 punch a guy and the guy would go flying through 0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:16.360 a window and that would be it. Matt really has 0:22:16.400 --> 0:22:19.119 to put the work in to fight. He does, and 0:22:19.600 --> 0:22:22.040 you feel it. It's visceral when he. 0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:25.000 I do think that the one thing that surprises me 0:22:25.080 --> 0:22:27.880 the most about how long it took them to bring 0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:31.919 Dad Evil to the MCU is that Charlie Cox is 0:22:32.119 --> 0:22:35.600 just one of those generationally great casting. In fact, all 0:22:35.600 --> 0:22:38.360 the casting in this show is fantastic, but when you 0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:41.919 see him, especially early on, it's very rare in the 0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:46.400 MCU and in these big superhero universes that we get 0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:48.800 to see a character in an early version of their 0:22:48.840 --> 0:22:50.040 suit or without a suit. 0:22:50.280 --> 0:22:51.960 When you see him with. 0:22:52.040 --> 0:22:56.919 That really cool man in the mask, like kind of 0:22:57.119 --> 0:23:01.480 black bandana around his eyes, very assic Ninja turtles look, 0:23:01.720 --> 0:23:04.879 and just like his black tight thermals and his boots, 0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:08.760 you're like, wow, this is so different to the kind 0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:12.439 of high military versions of the heroes that we've gotten, 0:23:13.000 --> 0:23:15.560 And it feels realistic that in a world where the 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:20.800 Avengers are publicly heroes and exist, other people who don't 0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:23.680 have that tech, who don't have this backing of Tony Stark, 0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:25.719 would take this into their own hands. 0:23:26.160 --> 0:23:27.000 And this show. 0:23:26.800 --> 0:23:30.640 Feels like it really deals with what the reality inverted 0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:33.600 commas of that would be. And I think the fights 0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:36.360 are such a great part of that because so much 0:23:36.400 --> 0:23:38.760 of what we saw in the MCU, Like we joke 0:23:38.800 --> 0:23:42.560 about this all the time, the collateral damage is high, 0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:45.960 like the Avengers are killing so many people, but you 0:23:46.080 --> 0:23:49.439 never see what that collateral damage really is. 0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:51.280 Even in the. 0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:53.160 Age of Vulture where they deal I'm in Civil War 0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:56.840 where they deal with it with the Legos explosion and 0:23:56.880 --> 0:23:58.720 what happened there and everything. 0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:02.640
