    Wish you didn’t repeat yourself so much, have you thought about scripting? Its just kinda annoying to hear the same info 3 times in the same video, it doesn’t need to be 18 minutes long, make a shorter more concise version similar to how Today I Found Out do their content.

    I just love that Charlie Cox worked really hard to properly portray a blind person, because I can imagine Hollywood never caring to previously because of a "Why would they? The blind people aren't going to complain." mentality.

      When I started watching the show, I was HELLA impressed that he mastered that focused expression and wandering jerky-scanning gaze. I've heard it called "dancing eyes" by a blind youtuber.
      But like, damn, that was such a wonderful little detail of his acting. I spent a lot of my watch time trying to figure out how the hell he even did that. Now I know. :)

    *bonus fun-fact:* The Ninja Turtles were actually created as a joke, meant to poke fun at Daredevil comics. I know that sounds hard to believe, but the first Ninja Turtles comics were actually incredibly violent, and ridiculously over the top on purpose. They only became kid-friendly later on.

      Spider You can be legally blind and still have enough sight to be able to enjoy TV combined with the audio. Also audio description is a thing. Although Netflix are dumbasses and didn't offer it on Daredevil until people kicked up a fuss. Because yes, blind people did want to see a hopefully accurate portrayal of a blind hero on TV. Literally see? No. But people get that you don't have to use the word literally.

      You don’t have to have previous knowledge of the character to do a good job, as long as you do a bit research for the part.

      I gotta say that there is a somewhat creepily surreal, to the point of being funny, feature of hanging out with people who are blind:
      I once was hanging out with a classmate and we'd been ribbing each other. So I decide to move the stack of napkins to good-naturedly mess with her. She laughed and was like, "You ass, put the napkins back."
      And I sort of stared in shock for a second before I giggled and said, "How did you know what I did? I was being *so* quiet!!"
      And just just smiled and said, "You were, but I felt you disturb the air in front of my plate."
      _And I've never been more afraid in my life._

    Something that always seems weird about Daredevil is that nobody ever treats him like he is blind, like I’m not complaining I think that’s a great message to send, they are just some scene that seem off.
    Like how some people just meet him and are immediately aggressive/confrontational, don’t you think that looks really weird if you are just passing by.

    • @anyjen
      @anyjen 6 лет назад +83

      True. A girl I knew from college once told me that one of the worst things about being blind is how people respect her a bit too much even when she's doing something that would get other people disrespected. Like, she would dress really provocatively and walk around crowded places, and yet, no catcalling. The one time a guy catcalled her, he was scolded by a bystander for not treating the poor blind girl well. She told me that she wanted to turn around and beat the bystander with her cane. XD
      Not saying that catcalling is ok, but it must sting when you are deliberately excluded from sth that nearly every other woman experiences just because of a disability. If that's the reason she was exempted, she didn't want it.
      Makes me want to write miss-pelled graffiti in sticky paper in Braille and stick it where blind people will find it, just so they can be included in the experience.

    • @anyjen

      Samar Nadra on it. I've just purchased the tools to do it. Now to learn enough braille to write pointless, vulgar and misspelled graffiti on sticky paper and figure out where to place them. Near the handles of doors on public buildings should work.
      Because even if it's rude and annoying, not making it inclusive is even ruder.

    • @anyjen
      @anyjen 6 лет назад +10

      Pixie Panda Plush no, I meant being catcalled, which happens even when you're scruffy and unwashed in baggy clothes and no makeup, but is particularly bad when you make an effort with your appearence, so since it wasn't happening to her she tried to dress in a provocative way to "induce" it. We are talking leather mini-skirt and fishnet shirt, here. And yet, no cigar. Somehow her cane was enough to isolate her from an experience that, while awful, is still part of nearly every woman's daily life.

      Eileen Jimenez ....That's NOT what Moon Knight was about, that's post Brian Michael Bendis Moon Knight.... Moon Knight was about a brutal mercenary who died in Egypt and turns over a new leaf by redeeming himself as a vigilante. He has THREE main disguises (Jake Lockley, Steven Grant, and Ian Waller) and has low grade schizophrenia from all the stuff he's been through from his military past... THE LAST faithful adaptation of Moon Knight was the 2006 Charlie Huston run. Today's Moon Knight might as well change his name since he's a completely different character.

      I agree, tone is largely irrelevant. it's not the problem most of the time. most comic characters have many stories with pretty much every tone of narrative you can think of, bright and happy to dark and grim. I think a big problem really is the being ashamed of the source material, like the DC and X-Men films often are, leading to them being reluctant to put the characters in actual costumes(X-Men and Netflix show of MCU) or letting them retain their moral and ethical identities(almost all of DC). they strip the characters of themselves essentially and that hurts what film/show they produce.

    I realise that going to Asia and learning martial arts is essential the entirety of the plot of Iron Fist. But I do want to point out that not all Martial Arts are Asian. Savate, Capoeira, Krav Maga, Brazilian Jujitsu, Pankration and Wrestling spring to mind and I'm sure that there are others that I can't immediately think off.

      True!
      But I think as well as casting an actor who already knew at least 1 martial art, they should have explored how he learnt martial arts that aren't native to Asia - it might have helped to sidestep the army of SJWs and their BS non-issues.

    The part about Charlie accidentally not looking people in the eye reminds me of my high school theater teacher. One thing he does is he naturally holds his hand near his stomach and rubs his thumb against his index and ring finger, sort of like a very subdued version of the stereotypical Italian hand gesture. And the reason he does that is because he once played a Nazi in a play who walked around with his hand like that and that part of it sort of stuck with him. It really goes to show just how much acting can change a person.

    I think you would be interested in Richard Feynman. He was a physicist that worked on the Manhattan Project. After the death of his wife and borderline imprisionment to work on the project, he would just go around the compound and break into the top-of-the-line safes that everyone had in their offices and even into top security areas to "Test the security". He broke into the safes with a crazy use of probability and just grinding through all possible combinations and tricked everyone into thinking he picked his way in. He didn't give a single shit and feel he would interest you with some of his exploits.

    As someone who deals daily with vision loss and hearing loss, I wanted to just say that while Daredevil DOES ostensibly "pretend" he is blind, him doing things like feel his way around can still be seen as actual blind behaviours. How? Any person with a sensory deficit uses their other main senses to a much higher degree. Deaf people, by the end of the day, will get tired eyes after a day of both seeing and communicating through the eyes. Blind people will have a similar fatigue related to hearing. My thoughts given all that is that while Murdock does pretend when out in public to maintain the full illusion, at home or another safe space, he turns off the super-sense he has in order to rest properly.
