Marvel Neflix Thread

As I said in the other thread, I wish they'd just come out and cancel the lot at this stage. It's a shame, but the Netflix shows increasingly looked separate to the rest of the MCU and never properly 'belonged'. In fact they went out of their way to avoid referencing the cinematic universe.

I'm hoping that if it is a Disney pulling their stuff back move, that they keep the same grittiness to them and not Disneyfy them.

Hm.

Is Heroes for Hire more or less likely now?

EDIT:

These don't make it look like straight cancellations, tbf.

Seen a few saying the immortal iron fist will live on whether or not that is a play on words remains to be seen.

Imo, DD S3 is best so far. Luke Cage and Iron Fist have not watched S2 yet.

And Daredevil has been **** canned by Netflix.

I think it was inevitable tbh, bloody shame though.

A shame, though scarcely surprising given everything else going on; honestly though, none of the Netflix shows ever managed to be truly 'perfect'. They were good, sometimes brilliant, but quite flawed in places. Daredevil season 3 has been pretty strong to be fair.

It's plain as day they're going to cancel the whole stable of Marvel shows, so wish they'd just get on with announcing Punisher / Jessica Jones and just be done with it. Dragging things out serves no purpose.

Slydice · 30-11-2018 10:28pm

Ah f**k!

Arcsurvivor · 30-11-2018 11:14pm

I'm glad I did not watch Punisher S2 or Jessica Jones. It seems likely that Disney will cancel both after the next season.

Agent Coulson · 12-12-2018 10:18pm

The Punisher season 2 will arrive in January no date announced yet.

I'd expect it to be cancelled soon after it drops.

pixelburp · 12-12-2018 10:45pm

Lordy, an element of "why bother" in that; does make it seem like they should have waited til all the seasons came out before nuking the lot.

Agent Coulson · 12-12-2018 10:47pm

You would hope they could at the very least finish with a Defenders 2 before pulling the pull on the whole lot.

Whatever happens, it won't for another 2 years minimum: Variety notes that there's a clause in the Netflix-Marvel contract that prevents appearances in any non-Netflix production for 2 years after cancelation:

Sources tell Variety that the deal for the original four Marvel shows includes a clause that prevents the characters from appearing in any non-Netflix series or film for at least two years after cancellation. That means that “Daredevil,” “Luke Cage,” and “Iron Fist” — which were all canceled this year at Netflix — could not come to the Disney streaming service until 2020 at the earliest.

There's still a Jessica Jones season 3 on the way next year, further pushing out any appearances by her anyway.

PTH2009 · 05-02-2019 5:43pm

With the punisher I dont get the premise of this and these movies. There war veterans but it's the same world as superheroes and iron man etc and there's no mention in there group meetings about aliens/iron man/cap etc

pixelburp · 18-02-2019 8:43pm

Jessica Jones and the The Punisher finally confirmed as cancelled, as if there was any doubt once the other shows got the chop.

The White Wolf · 28-10-2020 7:25pm

I know this bump is going to annoy some expecting some news but I gave up on Season 2 of JJ after only 3 episodes when it was released initially, but due to boredom I completed it this week.

I'm on season 3 but I think I'm going to give up again because Trish has to be one of the worst and poorly conceived characters across the Netflix Marvel universe.

It's a shame because Ritter really is every bit the MVP of her own show but I can't take much more of Trish and Jeri.

Doctor DooM · 31-10-2020 7:26pm

Now that you mention it...

Hellcat shows up a bit in the She-Hulk comics, I wonder are Marvel considering using or recasting any of these characters. A lot of them have established relationships with already used cinematic characters (another one would be Jessica Jones and Cap Marvel). Decanonising the Netflix series must be on the cards in some cases.

pixelburp · 31-10-2020 7:35pm

Pretty ignominious if the characters were written out of history. Bad enough the shows went out of their way to distance themselves from the MCU, and the giant alien invasion of New York itself; to recast the characters would be a shame. Especially as by and large they were on the money; Jones, Cage and Murdock specifically.

I could honestly see the new TV regime (who are now the same as the movie regime) pulling who they want up to the "main" roster and discarding what they don't like from the Netflix series.

Multiverse solves all.
