I'm on episode 4 now (I watch 1 episode per day) and I'm really enjoying it. I look forward to watching the next episodes. I really like the sense of the growing threat of the Hand. And I actually care about the characters. I hope Joy stays a good person and friend to Danny. I've read some complaints about Finn Jones's acting but I like it. He acts kind of odd but I attribute that to growing up in K'un-Lun. And I like that this show isn't currently so dark. The action sequences are good (not great) and I can tell that Finn Jones and Jessica Henwick's martial arts skills aren't that great but it's still enjoyable. Hopefully, as they train more they will look better doing it. I hope they have him wearing the Iron Fist costume in the end of the show.

If I had to rank the NetFlix shows, I would put them at

1. Daredevil Season 1

2. Iron Fist

3. Daredevil Season 2

4. Jessica Jones

5. Luke Cage

My rating might change after I watch all the episodes.

Where do I imply that American equals white? Here is what I said:

In the past American was mostly white, so most films will feature a white male lead. As America diversifies, we'll naturally see more diversity in our films and TV shows.

American is much more diversified now than when I was a kid and it will continue to become more diversified as time goes on where pretty soon whites will not be a majority anymore. And a natural consequence of this will be that our films and TV shows will have more diversity going forward. We'll see more shows like "Fresh off the Boat" and "Master of None" and remakes like "Karate Kid" will feature a non-white lead. Hollywood is just like any other business. They cater to their audience.

Ignoring the fact that I never equated American with white, how can I, being an middle aged Asian male, be arrogant about stating that America is still mostly white? The definition of arrogance means being overly prideful. Why should I feel pride about American being equal to white? That makes no sense. I still remember watching Michael Chang playing tennis and being aware that the announcers never really described him as an American player. When I was young, I was always asked where did I come from as if I was a foreigner even though I was born here. So, you really don't know what you are talking about.

I like both DC and Marvel equally now. When I first got started in comics, my friends and I were into Marvel -- the other kids in the neighborhood generally felt that DC sucks and we mostly avoided DC. Then I stopped collecting comics for awhile. I remember feeling that the X-Men stories were getting convoluted to the point where it started not to make sense to me and I couldn't keep track of what was going on.

Then when DC had the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline and John Bryne's reboot of Superman, I started collecting DC comics. Everything felt new and exciting because I was being introduced to new characters and stories and now I'm a big fan of the Post Crisis Superman and other DC characters.

I'm kind of surprised there is sort of a rivalry between DC and Marvel since a lot of writers and artists have worked for both companies. I would think people would just be a "comics" fan and not a Marvel fan or DC fan.

Yes!!!

I think she would have made a good Maggie Sawyer.

lol, I did a similar thread about Jimmy Olsen and Blake Griffin.

As long as she has red hair in the film, I'm happy...

@dngn4774: I hated Jimmy's fate in BvS. I also hated reading Snyder's interview when he laughed it off and thought it was a funny thing to do. In Man of Steel Jimmy wasn't even there and Snyder made it so that people were wondering if he changed Jimmy into Jenny.

He's a professional basketball player (a really good one) for the Clippers and he's actually mixed (part white and part black). To me, his face has a Jimmy Olsen quality to it.

If I had to cast a black guy to play Jimmy Olsen, I think Blake Griffin would make a good choice. Except for the fact that he's too tall, he kind of looks like Jimmy. What do you guys think?
