    In my experience, the main reason someone goes by their last name is because they have a common name that they share with friends / classmates. So I'd go Nick.

    Mutemath! They put on one of the best shows I've ever seen in Baltimore - just had insane levels of energy and did some crazy things on stage.

    I don't know if anyone loves the movie, I do think people initially thought it must be the worst movie ever to bomb as it did and then upon watching it thought, huh that was pretty OK. At least that's how I felt.

    I just don't think Kitsch is the best actor, he was great as Tim Riggins but not so much in other things I've seen him in. Worst of all was True Detective, although that may be the terrible writing more than anything else.

    It sucks they're leaving and I think the spinoff is a bad idea, but the main reason AoS got better is because the pacing of the plots got a lot better after the Winter Solder reveal. Bobbi and Hunter were great but lets not discount everything else good the writers have done.

    To be fair, he talked his way in by using a contact he had (I think someone their law firm had helped in some way) only to be in danger because that contact had recently been killed by the Punisher. He then was able to talk his way out while getting at least basic information on how his contact died.

    Link? I've seen Doc and / or Jackson say they have S7 outlined in their heads but I haven't seen anything say Adult Swim has renewed the show or that it's in official production.

    Spoilers for this season:

    I don't get what Foggy's "importance" to his city has anything to do with his character. He has never gone around proclaiming NY needs more of him and less of Daredevil. He has expressed concern for his best friend's welfare on several occasions. He has also been angry with Matt for not fulfilling his duties at their

    I think the show version is meant to still be Greek, or at least a mix (Yung herself is French / Cambodian). Foggy references Matt dating a Greek girl in college in S1 and then Elektra is shown as his college flame this season.

    How? Daredevil's archenemy is Kingpin, not The Hand.

    I don't get why people hate Foggy personally…I think it may be because we're all so geared to root for the protagonist no matter what that anyone nagging them about genuine concerns is someone who seems unlikable.

    I would say the show has gotten a lot better in recent weeks but it has done so mostly by pulling book events forward into Quentin's first year at Brakebills. So if changing book events is an issue, you still likely wouldn't like it.

    I agree but I think the pacing of the show feels off by them rushing the story and it could have been handled better. For example, I think I've said this on other reviews, they could have started the show in year three or four of Brakebills for Quentin and company and used flashbacks to fill in things like him getting

    Julia's entire plot is underwritten. In the books she spends years trying to find and self teach herself one useless spell before giving up and being found by FTB. Then she is forced to level up as much as possible before being thoroughly tested and finally admitted by the group.

    I think the show used the recap and the early part of the show to trick comic fans into thinking it'd be Abraham. Most of the Abraham flashbacks had very little to do with the plot of the episode (his relationship with Sasha got advanced but that's about it) and the scene of him and Eugene walking was near identical

    I feel like the show is afraid to kill off anyone meaningful at this point. Denise was nice and all but she isn't anywhere near as important as Abraham was in the comics when he died the same way. This show should have Game of Thrones level deaths every season but instead chooses to kill off the more minor members of

    I've thought the same thing…I have keratoconus so I can only wear specialty lenses (hybrid soft / hard or hard). Without them I'm legally blind and glasses wouldn't help much. So yea…I'm fucked in a zombie apocalypse unless I magically obtain Daredevil-esque abilities.

    Fair enough…that does suck then.

    Dr. Phage as Helper was the best gag of the season I think.
