    It's ironic that an 81 year old woman from my church is so affirming (and is on FB) and that her grandson is a bigot. Never know. I had talked with her at a restaurant after church one time, and she said back in the 70's she knew one of her nephews was gay as a young child. She said she didn't care that he was gay at all and was concerned about him being bullied back then. I wish this woman could live forever and knock some sense into her grandson. Love ya, Norma.

    NEVERMIND ME, I'm just gonna quietly jerk off to Charlie Cox, whose portrayal of Matty Murdock in Daredevil I find to be the perfect blend of hot and cute.

    Speaking of Daredevil, holy shit. I just finished watching the season and it was so good I legit wanna cry because I have to wait an entire year for the next one. Seriously, after trying to get into Agents of SHIELD (Yuck) and Gotham (Puag! This is not the series Batman deserves, and it's certainly the last thing it needs ¬_¬) I had lost all hope for superheroes on TV, and then this. It was as if someone had taken Nolan's TDK and serialized it, but you know with DD instead. They got so many things right I can confidently say this is a genuinely good show. Not just a good "superhero show", a good show period.

    Anyway

    So lucky you have a church that's open to everyone. Meanwhile, I get to sit through my weekly put downs from crazy pastor.

    I read about the 2011 San Fernando massacre. I wonder what people would do, if they found themselves in that situation...

    I read about this fine trolling.

    I read about Dialectical Behavior Therapy. A lot of the text was in Comic Sans.

    And I fell asleep watching a anime. It wasn't boring. I must've been tired.

    It seems that I have going to write that ten page social analysis research paper between the next two days. I was too busy revision another ten page research paper to start it tonight...
    I would have never thought to check that show out, but I definitely give it some consideration now.

    Same here. Raw you should enter advertisement business. You know how to sell your goods.

    While comparing to Nolan's TDK thing a bit of let down for me I love DD and anything is good to wash away that fugly Ben Affleck version.

    I don't go to a church like that. It is literally a handful of people like that, and she is one of them. The pastor is not affirming and my dad who is an elder is certainly not either. I should have put from my old church. Handful of people are all ladies by the way except for 1 guy.

    Hahahaha, good thing that my career path is deeply intertwined with advertising :grin: I'll keep this in mind if I ever do get around to copywritting on the freelance (it has crossed my mind before...).

    And don't worry, the TDK comparison (while I could never see it as a negative) was mostly influenced by the lasting impressions of the finale. There's specifically one long sequence in which everything, from the way it was shot to the colors and the cuts, reminded me of that chase sequence in TDK with Batman trying to stop the Joker from getting to Harvey.

    On the whole, I meant that Marvel's Daredevil feels like one 13-hour-long movie; from the writing, to the amaaaazing score (I really hope they release it on iTunes), to the direction, to the cinematography; everything here feels like it belongs in a prestige drama, which is the best praise I can give it when other superhero shows mostly feel like lesser incarnations of the material they derive from. But overall, this show is it's own thing. A surprisingly good and gritty crime drama that sets DD apart from the rest of the MCU (while still being connected to it...), in a good way.

    Beware the violence tho. It's not gory or anything, but there's a lot of graphic violence here. It gets nasty really soon, and the show never apologizes for it (as it shouldn't, since it's never gratuitous).

    Daredevil comics were on "gory" part... at least the ones I read back then which was telling brake down of Matt.

    A little net search also lead me to the Defenders TV series... While DD was never part of the group while I was reading I am happy to see finally the Defenders get some recognition... Probably show will lack heavy guns of the series... Dr. Strange, Silver Surfer, Hulk, Clea, Valkyrie and Namor but Luke Cage and DD is okay as well. Fingers crossed for Iron Fist. I somehow always find him an interesting character. Oh and of course Nighthawk... a far shot but one can only dream. :grin:

    I know Netflix is gonna release independent shows for Jessica Jones, Iron Fist and Luke Cage (whoever that is) so my guess would be that the crossover Defenders mini-series is mainly gonna feature those four (since Marvel seems to see Hulk and Dr. Strange as more of movie-material really), which is fine by me since I wouldn't like this to get too convoluted. I just hope after the mini-series is done the characters can go back to their individual shows. It would be a waste for DD to only end up being a tie-in to this when it can be so much more (as it has proven so far).

    Don't mean to sound like a commercial, but the cable company's "TV to go" app for the iPad is the best thing since sliced bread. I'm glad I discovered my dad made me a separate account two years ago that I never used.
