I found all four of the individual Defender shows to have their own distinct tone, and I like all of them but (now that I've seen all four) I think I can honestly say that JJ was the one I got most out of. David Tennant irritates me most of the time but he was an acceptable villain in this. On balance, I'd like to have seen more out-and-out PI work from Jessica rather than a story about her trauma and I hope we get that in a second season. I suspect there will be more interest in Jessica and her series after Defenders comes out.

Cycling back to this though, I think the JJ we saw in Defenders is in line with your thinking. She's more of a PI than someone recovering from a trauma. Which is the right way to go IMO. Her character was unique when introduced in the comics (she doesn't _want_ her powers, she's afraid of them etc.) and I hope they stick with that. I'd rather see her as a PI who happens to have powers than as a superhero who happens to be a PI.

Jemma Simmons: Right? I always think the same thing when I see a movie that was adapted from source material but has been changed so much that it's unrecognizable. Nov 24, 2024 23:08:46 GMT

ayanami: I gotta admit that "World War Z" is an incredibly cool name, but still, seems a bit pricey if you're just gonna ignore the whole rest of the novel.

ayanami: The book sounds really cool btw. It's about one guy 10 years after the zombie outbreak gathering different perspectives from a bunch of survivors, so you have like a dozen different stories/settings in the novel. Plus, the author is actually Mel Brooks'... Nov 24, 2024 23:12:58 GMT
