Marvel's Jessica Jones

[baron arem heshvaun]

Netflix's November girl.

[Sharoth]

Cool!

[Kthulhu]

Marvel's giving me a birthday present. 5 days late, but still. :D

[Caineach]

Looking forward to it, but this teaser does nothing for me.

[Kthulhu]

I'd wager that teaser is a lot what the opening credits look like. Didn't Daredevil have an early teaser that resembled it's opening credits?

The teaser doesn't really tease anything. Other than a reminder that it's coming out.

It doesn't give anything about what the show's going to be.

[Kthulhu]

The teaser is very....purple. ;)

[Freehold DM]

COOOOOOOOL

[ShinHakkaider]

I think that there's going to be a joint Daredevil/Jessica Jones panel at NYCC. At least I'm hoping that it's joint. I also think that there's going to be a joint Agents of SHIELD / Agent Carter panel at NYCC as well.

I will be trying to attend both. I at least hope that Haley Atwell will be there. Wont be much of an Agent Carter panel without Agent Carter...

[Freehold DM]

I'm down for one and not the other
Three guesses which, and the first two guesses don't count.

[ShinHakkaider]

I guess Joss Whedon is to you what HP Lovecraft is to me.

Except I dont have the same WHITE HOT HATE HEAT for Lovecraft that you do for Whedon...

[Kthulhu]

Gotta love Freehold DM.
"Whedon wrote the pilot three years ago! I MUST HATE THIS SHOW FOREVER!!!"

[Rosgakori]

This series. I'm so excited for this. Krysten Ritter is always great, and I'm very much looking forward to see her in this role. And all that purple, plus that creepy whispering of her name in the background.

Tennant is gonna be terrifying as Kilgrave. I hope so, at least. Kingpin is hard to top.

[Purple Dragon Knight]

Slamdunk Predictor: Overheating

[Aranna]

I will be watching, even though I am totally scared for her.

I can't hate the show FOREVER....

I'm not immortal.

Hmm. Immortality. That's the ticket.

[Purple Dragon Knight]

Freehold: did you like Netflix Daredevil?

[Freehold DM]

Possibly...why?

[Purple Dragon Knight]

Yes or no?

[Freehold DM]

Let's say yes for arguments sake...

[Purple Dragon Knight]

Then there's hope for you yet.

[Marc Radle]

So what is the deal with Jessica Jones? Is she a super hero? It's a Marvel show, but it feels like she's a normal person with no powers etc ...

[Hama]

Superhero for hire.

Superhero turned private detective.

[Krensky]

It's sorta more complicated than that, but... well... Spoilers.

I am looking forward to see how they handle that given SHIELD and Carol Danvers' involvement in the comics.

As for powers, lightweight version of the superman package. Flight, superstrength, super toughness. She's not A lister material though.

[Aranna]

Yeah but she had really bad luck all her life... But yes spoilers.

Immortality you say. Why just meet us here Freehold. Safety first!

Well since Carol Danvers doesn't exist yet in the MCU...

Which is why I said it'll be interesting to see how Jone's backstory is handled.

[MMCJawa]

I am betting they give Danver's role to Patsy Walker, since she is in the show.

There are rumors that Rebecca Ferguson will get the role.

Doubtful, the version on the show seems to be more teen comedy Patsy than superhero Patsy, and even if she is Helcat at some point I'm not sure she'd have the requisite pull. Who knows though, it's not the only thing they're going to have to chance, what with Jones being Peter Parker's classmate and all.

If Hellcat Patsy is going to show up I don't think it will be until the Defenders series itself.

It is nice from a historical perspective seeing Patsy in the MCU since she's one of Marvel's only Golden Age properties more or less in continuous use

Trailers

Nightcap

Hangover Monday

[Freehold DM]

Coooooooool

[Sharoth]

Nice. Looking foreward to this one.

[Krensky]

Good Morning comes before Nightcap, and they're followed by Evening Stroll.

[baron arem heshvaun]

Fans of the comic, do you see the overlaying purple haze cue of the first trailer and then in Evening Stroll?

As a full time resident of the real present day gentrified Hell's Kitchen for ten years I would like to report that the only crimes I have seen are my rent bill, Time Warner "customer disservice" and the price of my brunch time Mimosas.

Thats why they destroyed Hell's Kitchen in Avengers 1 :)

Did you notice Avengers Tower in the background of Evening Stroll? Also that it's the same corner as the Daredevil motion poster?

Perfect trailers. They let you know what you should look forward to without excessive spoilers, they are atmospheric, and interesting.

Looking forward to this show.

[Purple Dragon Knight]

Yeah... they are definitely going for ambiance and setting on these. I'm hoping this doesn't mean the show is low on proteins...

[Krensky]

David Tennant playing the bad guy.

I expect 3000% of the RDA of scenery.

Well then, if David Tennant is in there... I hope we see more of the bad guy than the hero girl. This is high in proteins already. Nice.

David Tennant. AKA the Tenth Doctor on Doctor Who (unless the "Who?" was a joke in referencing that) and Barty Crouch Jr. from Harry Potter.

His HP performance was extremely hammy, with lots of bizarre facial expressions and weird vocal inflections, so the expectation is that playing another villain he'll be likewise devouring the scenery with gusto.

... unless you meant "Who is Tennant playing?" In which case I have no idea.

I was being a smartass about the "who" part. Perhaps if I had said "Who"? Maybe I should call a Doctor?

[The 157th Doctor]

You called?

Kind of incredible how much vagueness of intention could be compressed into a single word, isn't it?
