Your C & D are great points but I don’t think the action scene were one of the main problems with this show. As for A & B, I have yet to hear a reason for Danny’s character being changed to Asian other than “he does martial arts.” My point of the “no-win” was that every important Asian character in the Marvel/Netflix

They should play this every 2 years instead of 4. It’d also reach a larger audience if it was played mid February instead of during the NCAA Tournament.

Again, your problem isn’t with the casting. Your issue is with the Iron Fist story itself. You obviously interpreted the show as - white guy whitesplains Kong Fu. How is that different than the source material? Making him Danny Asian would have been lazy. Making Daredevil or Jessica Jones Asian would have been a lot

Their win per assault ratio is way off.

‘Petty’ is already the word of the year and the answer to all five of these questions.

In order:

Why the fuck is this on Friday nights?

Bi/Pan? Yall must fast forward through the multiple instances when his wife acknowledges that her lady parts repulse him. Or the odd scene when he used an out of body sex double just so he could suffer through sex with his wife.

Obama should hit him with a libel suit. Dragging his ass to court would shake the shit out him.

Somebody help me understand because situations like this give those whiney anti-PC weirdos a small sliver of credibility. We really need to stop attacking allies and making good the enemy of perfect.

I call them Emma’s and Mitchell’s.
