Yeah, I actually like that, going from Fisk's 70s flashbacks and Matt's 90s flashbacks, the gentrification DID happen. Hell's Kitchen's nicer than it was. It's just that the Battle of New York trashed so much that things have regressed.

The film didn't seem that lone, and the Malekith scenes were what, 10 minutes more? They could have kept both his scenes and Loki's.
You nailed their voices perfectly, even if there was no Wesley dialogue.
Agreed. So much so. He's my favorite non Matt and Ben character, and unlike D'Onofrio, not taking me out of the show when he appears.
Check out John Wick, 1) because it's an awesome movie, and 2) Wesley's actor plays a right-hand man again, this time for Theon Greyjoy.
That line was perfect. Wesley is far more interesting, and better acted, than his boss.
Wesley's also pragmatic, just prone to quiet moments of wit instead of constant snark. I love them both.
Ralphie Capone was incredible.
I feel like he would have been better, to be honest.
Wasn't that scene technically set in the late '80s/early '90s, when you consider Damon and DiCaprio's ages?
Everyone else in the cast slides easily into their characters and the dialogue flows naturally. Every time D'Onofrio's Fisk speaks it feels like an actor fumbling over lines.
I feel like Hannibal would win. Especially if it's in a kitchen.
Ralphie Capone/Herc was terrifying. Shave his head, suave him up, make him The Kingpin instead of D'Onofrio, who seems to be doing a bad parody of Bale's Bat-voice.
I thought it was the worst. D'Onofrio's petulant stunted manchild Fisk does not work, and this was basically all that.
This is the one bad episode in a great series. I tried and tried to get into it, but D'Onofrio's performance as Fisk does not work. This episode cemented it. I am all for giving villains nuances and vulnerability, and having them develop alongside heroes, but this doesn't work. The petulant, stunted child thing…
Give all of the awards to Toby Leonard Moore for his delivery of "…technically, we paid someone else to shoot him."
Jack Shepperd's grandfather! That guy from the Brandon Lee flick Rapid Fire!
I really enjoyed that. It worked so much better than predictable kiss finale. And I liked Foggy and Karen having a romantic tease instead. It was different from the norm and didn't make me groan. Plus Cox had better chemistry with Dawson.
This sounds incredible. How have I never heard of this?
You just made a good episode even better.
