Without having powers, or the capacity or desire to destroy worlds, or any ambition for godhood, Wilson Fisk nonetheless manages to be perhaps the greatest villain in the entire Marvel universe through sheer force of character.
Mooky Blaylock kids love overhyping the videos their watching. This same guy will probably write the same shit for thanos in another video. It’s just the way these guys go. Glad I’m not the only one who found this annoying
I'm not overhyping this, I'm expressing my genuine opinion. I'm not one of those people that just gets out of every movie going, "TAHt WAS TEH BEST MOVEI EVARR!!!!!" This character was really compelling-more compelling than, I believe, any other villain in the Marvel canon up until Thanos in Infinity War (Obviously, I made the original comment long before Infinity War came out, so I did not know then what a great villain Thanos would turn out to be). And even then, it's kind of a tough choice. Other villains like Loki and Killmonger, to me, would both be a tier below these two, and all the other Marvel villains a tier below them.
@@rolan5948 Just because you use the word to "kids" to describe certain people, doesn't automatically make you superior to them. So tone it down with that big ego of yours, before you implode on yourself and stop being an ass just because you don't agree with someone elses opinion.
Something particularly interesting about the parable of the Good Samaritan is that the road to Samaria was, at the time, famous for being absolutely riddled with bandits, and often they would have someone pretend to be wounded to serve as bait. So not only did the Samaritan help the traveler, he did so with the full knowledge that he might be tricked and attacked.
I love that he doesn't even say he's the "man of ill intent", he straight up says he is the _ill intent_ itself, basically calling himself the Devil. Which is 100% the Kingpin. Yeah, he can definitely break you in two with minimal effort, but his real power and what makes him truly dangerous isn't what he himself can do, it's what he can influence others into doing on his behalf, to afflict people that he may not ever have even met, all from behind a desk or a computer monitor.
I don't know I only saw a couple of episodes of Daredevil it sort of sounds like Samuel L. Jackson in pulp fiction though...that shit ain't the truth I am not the Shepard or the righteous man I am the tyranny of evil men etc. Fisk is just having identity crisis or something.
@@AnnaLVajda I don't think if I didn't you crisis, he just thought he was the good guy Wilson Fisk but now he realizes he's the Kingpin just like Daredevil realized he was Daredevil at the end of this season.
It was beautifully directed, not to mention the next 3 lines worked as well "He saw the traveler bleeding in the road" Turns to karen who daredevil saved from being killed early on, person attacked by the ill-intent. "And he stopped to aid him without thinking of the circumstance or the difficulty it might bring him" Cuts to foggy and how he didn't think about how him pursuing this life would impact foggy or the consequences foggy would now have to face because of it. Just amazing direction.
Naw, the "ill intent" was embraced and fully accepted. When Fisk finally leaves prison, Kingpin will be unleashed then! Yes, he has the status but, heavy the head that weighs the crown will walk proud upon exit from his confinement!!
I was talking to rootbeer543. They say "Kingpin walked out" of the truck as if Fisk had never done anything evil before this scene, which is ridiculous. He was evil all throughout this season.
The way he breathes out, almost in a shudder, that he “always though that [he] was the Samaritan”... you can just feel the deep sorrow at the discovery that he is, in fact, not the hero of the story.
You almost feel bad for him, but then, just after that he completely embraces his persona, no longer trying to be the Good Samaritan but a force of evil that simply acts as it is supposed to
@@diegovera1353 Even more tragic that Fisk *chose* to be this. He could have chosen differently, he had a new chance here to understand what he was and could have chosen to been different.
It’s insane looking back at this and realizing that throughout the whole series it’s so clear that Kingpin is the villain to everyone except Kingpin. He genuinely thinks he is the hero of the story. Right until this moment.
Best vilain of the entire MCU . He doesn’t have super powers, but his character, his commitment to the one he loves, his intelligence makes him way better than every vilain we’ve met in a marvel product.

Mooky Blaylock nayy dude. I’m an atheist but Joel Gawne is right. We don’t toss out Plato just because he believed in river spirits and reincarnation. His moral wisdom can be valued independently of his metaphysics.

They say a good villain shouldn't think they're villains and mostly that's true. However there is something truly terrifying about him realizing that he is a villain and how ok he is with it. It's like a episode of Smallville Lex has a line where he admits to being the villain of the story.
@Duck Soup Hmm that does make sense. So to call Alexander the Great or Napoleon a hero is false then I presume. Though this might be irrelevant I will say that it's possible to have qualities that make a hero without being a hero. Alexander had charisma, exceptional leadership and the power to inspire and undying loyalty to his men which they reciprocated but the fact that his actions led to deaths of many does not make him a hero. Sorry for the long comment just wanted to air out a few thoughts.
I prefer when he symbolically murders his younger/innocent self, the good side of his character. Embodied in a child. He throws the child in the fire exclaiming “YOU MAKE ME WEAK!” So dark! I love it!
I love how Fisk didn't say he was a man of ill intent, he said he was the ill intent. Fisk doesn't consider himself the man who cast a shadow in the dark he sees his entire persona as darkness itself. Fisk accepted who he really is but he is also upset about his fall from grace, that he wasn't the hero he thought he was, That he became what he hated so much.
2:22 I love the way his voice changes on "nature", and the look he gives. That precise moment when you remember that for all his soul-searching and sympathetic qualities, this is a REALLY dangerous man.
this is my favorite speech of all time. I get chills every single time he says he is the "ill intent, set upon the traveler on a ride that he should not have been on."
Greg Elchert yeah in fact Samaritans and Israelites generally HATED each other. Samaritans were (and still are) almost Jewish, but not quite. They have a few differences: they think God’s holy place is in Gezer (central Israel) instead of Jerusalem (east-central Israel). Small differences like that led the Israelites and Samaritans to view each other as heretics, and they had centuries of ethni-religious conflict (much like Israelis and Palestinians today). The point of the story is that the Samaritan OVERCOMES the ethnic hatred to heal the traveller, simply because the traveler is a fellow human.
Fisk is infinitely more complex than any version of the joker save perhaps Arthur Fleck. Unlike the Joker, you see someone here who is actually human with human emotions and motivations. What the Joker aspires to is alien to all but the most deranged and broken.
THAT I'M NOT THE SAMARITAN, THAT I'M NOT THE PRIEST OR THE LEVITE...... THAT I AM THE ILL-INTENT THAT SET UPON THE TRAVELER ON A ROAD THAT HE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON........ I LOVE HOW HE SOUNDS UPSET THAT HE WASN'T THE HERO HE THOUGHT HE WAS BUT THEN GETS MORE DETERMINED AND UNYIELDING WHEN HE COMES TOO AND ACCEPTS THAT HE IS THE VILLAIN ANYBODY ELSE GET THAT VIBE FROM THIS EPIC MONOLOGUE?
i completely agree,it's a " coming of age" story in a sense: he believed to be a good man,doing bad things for a greater good. Now instead he knows..he understood who he really is. The paradox is daredevil made him,thus creating his worse antagonist.
Fisk is certainly responsible for making himself, yes. But as pointed out, Fisk thinks what he's doing is for the good of Hell's Kitchen. He makes the bad or dubious choices because he initially believed he was that good Samaritan, and that his burden would improve his city. When Nelson and Murdock take him down like a common criminal and Fisk is later beaten down by the Daredevil, it causes his realisation that no, he's the bad guy. It's Matt's actions that make Fisk into the Kingpin, hence why he only adopts the name in season 2. So whoever Fisk becomes going forwards - presumably a more self-interested crime boss with Vanessa at his side - that is.. Sort-of on Matt's shoulders.
Damn. Anyone else think Fisk is the mcu’s greatest villain? He’s complex, relatable, believable and I’m glad he was in the show. I think in a movie he would’ve been too rushed or lazily written at least a television gives time to give him a compelling backstory and a complicated personality. He’s my personal favourite Mcu villain and I can’t wait too see what he’s going to be like in S3
Is it just me, or does 1:53 show that Fisk completely misunderstood the story all along? I was always taught that the whole point Jesus was making is that "neighbour" does NOT mean someone who lives near you or fits in with your particular group, it means anyone you are in a position to help. Fisk's line "he loved his city and all the people in it" shows that he misinterpreted the story, and turned it into a territorial, protect-your-own-group-at-the-expense-of-others message. It goes some way to explaining how his hope of being the Samaritan was doomed from the start, if he (possibly subconsciously) twisted the command into justifying what he wanted to do anyway. Brilliant writing.
Greg Elchert as even Fisk confesses, he’s “not a religious man”. He probably only heard the story once or twice, and misremembered the details to fit better with his own worldview
It's funny isn't it? How even the best of men can be deceived by their true nature. Favorite line of season 1. It's just as good if not better than Harvey Dent's quote.
I rewatched the first season recently and realized that in ep 1, the first time Matt and Foggy meet Karen and say they're her new lawyers, she asks, "What are you? Just a couple of good samaritans?" Just a little parallel, this show was so well written.
I don't know if it is coincidence, but the first thing Karen asked Matt and Foggy was 'are you a couple good Samaritans or something?' Possibly coincidence, but it is interesting.
Charlie Griffey Watch the scene again. When Fisk talks about the Samaritan, it cuts to Matt, and when talking about the traveler, it cuts to Page. That's how you direct.
It's really matter of opinion but you have to remember that the show allow more screen time and development for their characters. It's why Kingpin is a favored character, as opposed to Ultron.
I actually kinda think it is an easy feat. Prior to Kingpin, the only truly compelling MCU villains we'd really had were Loki and Winter Soldier. Abomination, Ivan Vanko, Malekith, Darren Cross, Kaecilius, Red Skull, Aldrich Killian, Ronan the Accuser off the top of my head were pretty damn mediocre. I'd say the top 5 ranking of MCU villains is probably currently something like Kingpin, Loki, Kilgrave, Billy Russo, Vulture
The oscars/emmy's don't care for superhero shows and or movies and or Netflix and or villains... Just as they did back in with the day with book/story awards they wouldn't award comicbook. Which is sooo wrong esp stories like Watchmen which fit those criterias the best
WHile Heath's performance definitely deserved that Oscar, those awards shows hate superhero/bigblockbuster type films (only an occasional exception here and there like LOTR/Titanic) even when the actors go hard for the role more than the usual drama stuff they love. Like many said if Heath hadnt died he wouldnt have gotten it, even though he deserved it.
God I fucking love this monologue. I love that he doesn't say he's the *people* who mugged the Traveler, he says he's the *ill intent*, and accuses the Traveler of being on a road he should not have been on. Really just makes the speech all the more menacing and fucked up.
I used to think Kingpin was dumb. To be specific, he wasn't my favorite growing up. This actor's performance has turned Kingpin into my favorite villian. There are no words for his performance. I want a damn Kingpin movie now lol.
Wilson Fisk is a prime example - It is not the bad guy who believes himself the hero to be the worst threat, it is in fact those who recognize they are evil and still do evil regardless. Common Villains believe themselves to be good, justified, that their actions lead to good. But the rare kind of evil is the kind that doesn't delude themselves, they know they are evil, they know they are not just justified, they know their actions lead to evil, and still enjoy doing it. Villains who see themselves as good can be shown the truth, that they are in fact in the wrong, and can be turned to real good, cause they need that belief that they are good inside. But a villain who sees themselves as evil, monstrous, and still enjoy it, they cannot be turned to good, because they don't want to be good, as they see it as merely lying to themselves. Most good don't realize they are the bad guys. It is only the rare few that recognize the reality of what they are, and that is what makes them scary.
1:51 -2:22 You can hear the quiet resentment and sadness in Fisk's voice . It's almost like he's grieving over his percieved moral compass. For so long he convinced himself that at worst he was a necessary evil , that ultimately what he was doing was in other peoples interest, then at 2:24 - 2:41 he realises he's been lying to himself , everything he's done was all for himself . By the end of his speech , he's stopped lying to himself, he knows he's evil and even worse embraces it .
"Evil" is the term used by the weak to demonize those who are strong and awake. Darth Plagueis the Wise said as much to Darth Sidious, upon the latter's anointing as a Sith Lord.
The man a Samaritan, cuts to Matt, sees the traveler in the dirt, cuts to Karen. Beautiful. Bc he saw her when she was framed and in danger and he believed her
Will be family friendly ,sad. Daredevil and netflix shows are canon, but in another timeline since loki events. The daredevil and kingpin now it´s in the main timeline.
every time I read a new dd comic with Fisk in it, I read it through Vincent Donofrio's voice. This guy is just pure brilliant as the kingpin as Charlie Cox is to Matt Murdock/Daredevil
Wilson Fisk is right up there with Thanos, Loki and Zeemo in terms of iconic Marvel villains. A man with the terrifying presence and elegance of the devil himself.
Lots of people say the best villains are the ones who think they’re the hero. But Kingpin goes a step beyond that. And seeing him embrace his role as the villain of the story is one of the most powerful scenes I’ve ever watched.
@@ZeeManiaX because kingpin isn't a superhero/supervillain,but rather a completely realistic villian,a man who has no super powers,who has a wife and a family..but in the first conflict of interests he's ready to crush anybody with his power/money...a villain that you can bump into in any country
Karen: The traveller who was attacked by the ill intent. Fisk: The ill intent. The Police and The Judiciary: The Priest, Levite and the Religions Functionaries. Matt: The Good Samaritan. Foggy and Matt's friendship breaking down: The consequence. Masterpiece.
"It means that I'm not the Samaritan, that I'm not the Priest or the Levite. that I am the Ill Intent, who set upon the Traveller on a road that he should not have been on."
The context for this scene is perfect, and it shows how a man who thinks he is good can learn how he is actually one of they were assail the good or "normal" in this world.
Shakespearan Depth. The limitless category. I break into tears me being a professional PI since 1986. I showed it to a hardcore real life tough guy (strtength of 5 men 400 street fights with tough guys) who needs to fear nothing. Even he got heavily impressed by the German synchro. Fisk captures the purest essence between good and evil... complete with wit, extreme POWER and charisma that can even impress smart people. Vincent had half the same magnitude (yet same visible talent) as Private Paul and s t i l l Oscar worthy .... I would say he has grown another 3 classes... Vincent D`Onofrio always is a huge benefit to movies that badly need charisma. Bulletproof gangster for example.
I don't know if I've just not seen the right movies or what, but Vincent's portrayal of Fisk is the scariest I've ever seen a character be while just being a man. No mask, no costume, no power. Just a really intimidating character. Masterful acting.
"I am the ill intent, that set upon the traveler..." Jesus, that speech gave me chills. What incredible writing in that show.
Fuck Me...
Its Brilliant.
Vincent D'Onofrio's performance really makes it for me.
you guys know this is just the Pulp fiction speech
This scene and the cemetery Punisher monologue with "Red" (Penny and Dime/GRAVEYARD SCENE). Two best fucking scenes in Daredevil so far!
Incredible writing and acting. I don't know Wilson fisk's actors name which is a shame but that is some of the best casting ever.
Without having powers, or the capacity or desire to destroy worlds, or any ambition for godhood, Wilson Fisk nonetheless manages to be perhaps the greatest villain in the entire Marvel universe through sheer force of character.

Fisk's line "he loved his city and all the people in it" shows that he misinterpreted the story, and turned it into a territorial, protect-your-own-group-at-the-expense-of-others message. It goes some way to explaining how his hope of being the Samaritan was doomed from the start, if he (possibly subconsciously) twisted the command into justifying what he wanted to do anyway.
Brilliant writing.
mzytryck wooooah lol good point
Greg Elchert as even Fisk confesses, he’s “not a religious man”. He probably only heard the story once or twice, and misremembered the details to fit better with his own worldview
Jesus your comment made this scene %1000 more powerful to me.
It's much like how Bill from Kill Bill misunderstands Superman
@@meris8486 exactly
I will NEVER forget this scene. His performance gave me goosebumps
2:35 the “bwooaaaaaaaaaa” is so overlooked in this scene. Such amazing sound design
He went from Wilson Fisk into the Kingpin in that split second... Spine chilling scene
The ending of this speech is such perfect timing
He should probably tell this story to Clint Barton.
God I need this
He didn't sadly
His part in that show felt like a weak impression of kingpin in this one. A dumbed down cameo
Oof
When the reason why the Kingpin loses to Kate Bishop but only for five minutes is because he wants to talk about him being “ill intent”.
One of my favorite monologues of all time, Vincent just sells it.
"That's the guy I've been worried about this whole time."
2:08 The realization you are not good.
But fuck it right.
Very sad in a way.
+Dominic Labriola also kind of beautiful in a way.
+MyWorldOrder Tragedy often is. A fall from grace.
MyWorldOrder _fuck it (being evil)_
______
Funny and true.
He's rich, powerful and is banging a hot bitch.
Okay so he's not the good guy, so what?
The background score at 2:36 - chills every time!!
IKR!! A perfect musical transition.
It's funny isn't it? How even the best of men can be deceived by their true nature.
Favorite line of season 1. It's just as good if not better than Harvey Dent's quote.
What's Harvey Dent's quote?
Frank Pagan WHATS HIS QUOTE ANSWER ME IM DYING
+MysterionTM I'm guessing that he means "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain," but I'm not sure.
@@georgeofhamilton Yeah he did say that.
I rewatched the first season recently and realized that in ep 1, the first time Matt and Foggy meet Karen and say they're her new lawyers, she asks, "What are you? Just a couple of good samaritans?" Just a little parallel, this show was so well written.
I don't know if it is coincidence, but the first thing Karen asked Matt and Foggy was 'are you a couple good Samaritans or something?' Possibly coincidence, but it is interesting.
Charlie Griffey Watch the scene again. When Fisk talks about the Samaritan, it cuts to Matt, and when talking about the traveler, it cuts to Page.
That's how you direct.
man, wilson fisk is pure gold the best part of the serie
He shoulda got a Emmy for his acting, by far the best of any Netflix marvel story’s 👏👏👏
HE’S BACK BOYS
Kingpin = By far the best villain of the entire MCU.
And that's not an easy feat.
Ehh, he's kind of a whiny overly emotional giant baby. I'm not into it.
No. Kilgrave >>> Kingpin
It's really matter of opinion but you have to remember that the show allow more screen time and development for their characters. It's why Kingpin is a favored character, as opposed to Ultron.
I actually kinda think it is an easy feat. Prior to Kingpin, the only truly compelling MCU villains we'd really had were Loki and Winter Soldier. Abomination, Ivan Vanko, Malekith, Darren Cross, Kaecilius, Red Skull, Aldrich Killian, Ronan the Accuser off the top of my head were pretty damn mediocre. I'd say the top 5 ranking of MCU villains is probably currently something like Kingpin, Loki, Kilgrave, Billy Russo, Vulture
Dev1359
Billy Russo???
He's back.
the 4 people that down voted this must have been the traveler on a road that he should not have been on.
HE HAS RETURNED!
How didn't Vincent win an Emmy?
Cause it's a superhero show. We never get any real rewards.
If Heath Ledger could win an award, so can anyone in any superhero feature.
The oscars/emmy's don't care for superhero shows and or movies and or Netflix and or villains... Just as they did back in with the day with book/story awards they wouldn't award comicbook. Which is sooo wrong esp stories like Watchmen which fit those criterias the best
Heath died. That's the difference.
WHile Heath's performance definitely deserved that Oscar, those awards shows hate superhero/bigblockbuster type films (only an occasional exception here and there like LOTR/Titanic) even when the actors go hard for the role more than the usual drama stuff they love. Like many said if Heath hadnt died he wouldnt have gotten it, even though he deserved it.
No matter how many times I watch that, I still get chills.
God I fucking love this monologue. I love that he doesn't say he's the *people* who mugged the Traveler, he says he's the *ill intent*, and accuses the Traveler of being on a road he should not have been on. Really just makes the speech all the more menacing and fucked up.
Hell yeah, especially since the traveler in his version of that story is Hell's Kitchen and The Good Samaratin is Daredevil
I used to think Kingpin was dumb. To be specific, he wasn't my favorite growing up. This actor's performance has turned Kingpin into my favorite villian. There are no words for his performance. I want a damn Kingpin movie now lol.
Love that this is basically a more complete version of the monologue that Jules Winfield gives in Pulp Fiction
Vincent D'Onofrio is a superb actor. Look at what you get when you give him writing this good 👍 👏🔥🔥🔥
Wilson Fisk is a prime example - It is not the bad guy who believes himself the hero to be the worst threat, it is in fact those who recognize they are evil and still do evil regardless. Common Villains believe themselves to be good, justified, that their actions lead to good.
But the rare kind of evil is the kind that doesn't delude themselves, they know they are evil, they know they are not just justified, they know their actions lead to evil, and still enjoy doing it.
Villains who see themselves as good can be shown the truth, that they are in fact in the wrong, and can be turned to real good, cause they need that belief that they are good inside.
But a villain who sees themselves as evil, monstrous, and still enjoy it, they cannot be turned to good, because they don't want to be good, as they see it as merely lying to themselves.
Most good don't realize they are the bad guys. It is only the rare few that recognize the reality of what they are, and that is what makes them scary.
You’re a mean one, Mr. Fisk.
Fisk: *inhales* When I was a boy…
Anyone sitting next to him: *sweats profusely*
Where does that happen at?
@@saramartinez5872 Agreed
1:51 -2:22 You can hear the quiet resentment and sadness in Fisk's voice . It's almost like he's grieving over his percieved moral compass. For so long he convinced himself that at worst he was a necessary evil , that ultimately what he was doing was in other peoples interest, then at 2:24 - 2:41 he realises he's been lying to himself , everything he's done was all for himself . By the end of his speech , he's stopped lying to himself, he knows he's evil and even worse embraces it .
Who else became evil after watching this scene.
EnterAName I too am one of the men of ill intent.
I'm a member of the Hand now so I guess I'm evil.
EnterAName not me I'm team daredevil but I have to admit I felt some evil coming out of me when I watched this video.
"Evil" is the term used by the weak to demonize those who are strong and awake. Darth Plagueis the Wise said as much to Darth Sidious, upon the latter's anointing as a Sith Lord.
Joel Gawne interesting comment.
HE'S BACK IN HAWKEYE
Is there a better scene where the villain realized he’s evil, then embraces it?
Perhaps Willem Defoes green goblin
The “i am the one who knocks” type of speeches>>>
Still one of the best Villain lines in the MCU. STILL... Its scary and menacing. And chill worthy. A personal transformation that you wish on no one.
Better than thanos and movie villains in my opinion.
The man a Samaritan, cuts to Matt, sees the traveler in the dirt, cuts to Karen. Beautiful. Bc he saw her when she was framed and in danger and he believed her
Came back here to hear some REAL Kingpin dialogue
They’re going to ruin Daredevil like they did with Fisk
Same
The king is back
He's back baby!
Will be family friendly ,sad.
Daredevil and netflix shows are canon, but in another timeline since loki events. The daredevil and kingpin now it´s in the main timeline.
one of the best tv show scenes ever made
He's back!
You better do not mention Vanessa, Clint.
every time I read a new dd comic with Fisk in it, I read it through Vincent Donofrio's voice. This guy is just pure brilliant as the kingpin as Charlie Cox is to Matt Murdock/Daredevil
Whoever wrote that line in the script. Thank you
Can disney please give this back to Netflix and get more of this guy....?
Such a powerful scene and a turning point of a broken man excepting what he is!
People expecting this level of intensity from minute one in Hawkeye were fooling themselves. Different context, different tone, different show.
One of my favorite scenes in television ever
Wilson Fisk is right up there with Thanos, Loki and Zeemo in terms of iconic Marvel villains. A man with the terrifying presence and elegance of the devil himself.
I say as far as villians, my list would go Mandarin
Wilson Fisk
Killmonger
Thanos
Loki
Killgrave
Vulture
Lots of people say the best villains are the ones who think they’re the hero. But Kingpin goes a step beyond that. And seeing him embrace his role as the villain of the story is one of the most powerful scenes I’ve ever watched.
One of the best acted scenes in marvel universe...ever
Kingpin delivers a better speech than captain america
@@ZeeManiaX because kingpin isn't a superhero/supervillain,but rather a completely realistic villian,a man who has no super powers,who has a wife and a family..but in the first conflict of interests he's ready to crush anybody with his power/money...a villain that you can bump into in any country
Still gives me goosebumps after all these years. Hands down best Marvel outing so far! Will binge watch once a year for the rest of my days.
I can listen to him read a book.
Vincent deserves an Emmy
I love that Wilson Fisk refers himself as the man with ill intent. He will forever be the Kingpin of crime.
But looks... he doesn't describe himself as the man of I'll intent... he described himself as the I'll intent per se
Not a man of ill intent, but ill intent itself. Much more powerful of a line in my opinion.
Chris-Chan when he busts out of jail
Wow...WOW! I remember the fist time I saw this. When he said "I am the ill intent" a chill went up my spine. A masterclass in acting.
"A good man"
*Camera shows Matt*
I fucking love this show.
Such a great actor man!!!
Vincent d nafrio as Wilson fisk is just perfect in this daredevil netflix series he is the true embodiment of the kingpin.
Best villain speech ever!
Karen: The traveller who was attacked by the ill intent.
Fisk: The ill intent.
The Police and The Judiciary: The Priest, Levite and the Religions Functionaries.
Matt: The Good Samaritan.
Foggy and Matt's friendship breaking down: The consequence.
Masterpiece.
God bless Vincent D’Onofrio…How to hate a character but can’t avoid love him and respect that same character.
"It means that I'm not the Samaritan, that I'm not the Priest or the Levite.
that I am the Ill Intent, who set upon the Traveller on a road that he should not have been on."
The context for this scene is perfect, and it shows how a man who thinks he is good can learn how he is actually one of they were assail the good or "normal" in this world.
I love this scene. Just perfect.
He was and is the perfect Kingpin. Now to see him against Spiderman
Shakespearan Depth. The limitless category. I break into tears me being a professional PI since 1986. I showed it to a hardcore real life tough guy (strtength of 5 men 400 street fights with tough guys) who needs to fear nothing. Even he got heavily impressed by the German synchro. Fisk captures the purest essence between good and evil... complete with wit, extreme POWER and charisma that can even impress smart people. Vincent had half the same magnitude (yet same visible talent) as Private Paul and s t i l l Oscar worthy .... I would say he has grown another 3 classes... Vincent D`Onofrio always is a huge benefit to movies that badly need charisma. Bulletproof gangster for example.
Badly in the sense of urgently :)
I don't know if I've just not seen the right movies or what, but Vincent's portrayal of Fisk is the scariest I've ever seen a character be while just being a man. No mask, no costume, no power. Just a really intimidating character. Masterful acting.
This is the same exact way how Thanos thinks. They both think they're good, but they just are not.
except that Wilson actually comes to terms on what he is.
