i agree because it has the audience thinking who's method works better when it comes to dealing with criminals Same with civil war it got you questioning whether the avengers need to be controlled by government or given free reign to do what they want
i am gutted that Dawn of Justice was not like this Snyder fucked up Batman v Superman 3 years of build up and that is what fans were given as a result the Ultimate edition was slightly better but the main fault was the script and Snyder is at fault becuse he authorized that script to be used for the movie i fear for JL this year due to him being the one that directed it
Right? That movie could have been about the debate of revenge vs justice, and where the line is drawn and how we define each. But it was bogged down with just poor pacing. I hope JL is at least a good action movie.
Yep. And when Daredevil called Frank insane at the end, I noticed how both sides are partially right. Insanity is repeating the same thing over and over, expecting a different outcome. That’s precisely what Daredevil does; he has the same people arrested or injured (or killed, in Nobu’s case), and it doesn’t work, yet he continues to do it, expecting a different outcome.
@@That_1_BohemianYeah but we created insanity as a definition. Think about what would actually help civilization. Get rid of the evil "another definition we created" and you'll live an easier life, if that's what you want.
@@ras523sar "when does someone come for you to get justice?" Who desides when someone is evil? And how do you prevent it from being an excuse? Daredevil is right, you cant kill because some "bad" people are redeemable and can/or are good people. It's impossible to know. This version of Frank is emotionally unstable and mentally unhealthy. FURY is a 7 deadly sin for a reason, it doesn't justify your actions.
@@That_1_Bohemiano if someone is shooting old women and the police kill them it's unjustified because the killer might have turned their life around? You're forgetting that in the real world if you attempt to kill someone or hurt them in any way shape or form that you're life is forfeit. If you don't believe that someone who takes lives by force and unjustly has the right to have their life taken by force then you're insane. I guess in you're opinion we should just release all the lifers in prison or release people on death row or all the rapists back into society so that they might try and not harm others by default.
@@hyphen6025 Sometimes that can be good as it fits certain characters as that's what they do but other times, Marvel movies can go WAY over board with that.
@@hyphen6025 There were jokes but they fit the character. Such as Santa Claus joke. Punisher has a very blunt personality so flipping off Daredevil with something so traditional fits him.
@@kaana8421 The Santa line isnt really a joke. Its a saying , comparing hope to a fantasy. A recent MCU joke wouldve been some goofy statement to undercut all the tension.
Well technically this scene is fan service as it is ripped directly from a punisher comic. It's almost an exact replication but yeah this scene is phenomenal and another great scene is the graveyard where Frank and daredevil talk.
This is why I'm kinda excited yet scared of the Daredevil joining the Disney+ Shows because I'm kinda curious how they'll handle this but also nervous if they would ruin it. I'll just hope for the best. It's Marvel after all. Things usually work out sooner or later.
@@musyrifo it’s marvel after all?? Bruh I don’t think you’ve been paying attention to marvel at all. Phase 4 is a joke, literally everything in marvel is a joke. Every piece of dialogue is. Every action scene cuts away to some joke. Plus it’s not hard to see the political agendas / woke aspect.
Jon Bernthal is perfect as “The Punisher” hopefully he’ll be back in future MCU movies, marvel has stated they wanted him and Charlie cox to return their roles.
@@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter Yeah sometimes people just see too much of the bad things than recognising the good things. The world isn't black and white and not everyone who did wrong was bad and redemption was possible in very bad people too. But Frank is also right about it that sometimes it's just too late to fix it and going back. There are people who will never be able to change or becoming better sometimes at the end of an day they just smile and laugh at others even if they are going to die
@@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter For an example look at batman. A lot of things could have been avoided if he just have got rid of the Joker who definitely can't be fixed.
@@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter What makes vigilantes who won't kill unrealistic isn't that regular people DON'T believe in not killing, even criminals. Obviously most people have that moral fiber. What makes it unrealistic is that yes, lots of people wouldn't believe in killing, but virtually ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE would never feel the need for vengeance against criminals that is required to become a vigilante. Likewise anyone with enough burning vengeance against criminals, would find it also REMARKABLY difficult to not kill the worst of them. So, I don't see ANYONE 'shitting' on DDs convictions. I see people remarking on the serious implausibility of a VIGILANTE who risks his life and serious jail time, to punish criminals, and then also will only punish them so much, and stop before risking their lives. It's more unrealistic than most of what else happens in these shows. That's all.
@@freighttrain7143 respectfully, I've seen many people just outright say that DD is being an immature idiot. His way is obviously less pragmatic, but the reason he believes what he believes and acts the way he acts is super important for his character. I see people dismissing him completely because he doesn't do things Frank's way. I love their dichotomy, and it's not really an argument with an easy answer. I don't think it's inaccurate while going through multiple comments sections to say that people are outright shitting on his convictions. They're free to do so, obviously, it just annoys me to see, and I'm clearly in the minority. I appreciated the comment I replied to because it was one of the few reasonably worded ones I could find. Thanks for the thoughtful response. 🙏
Here's the problem with Daredevil's argument: yes, some people deserve a second chance, but what message does that send to future criminals who wanna commit heinous crimes? It shows that people can get a 2nd chance and maybe do the same heinous act against an innocent person. Frank's argument makes more sense because of the message it sends: You a rapist, pedophile, etc? You're gonna go in the morgue. No questions. It prevents, or atleast makes people think twice about doing those sort of crimes ever.
"Wanna talk about santa claus?" I don't know how they do it so well, but I love the way they manage to make it a serious conversation/debate about whether or not murder can be justified, while also being subtly funny in a way that doesn't feel forced or like the writers were expecting the audience to wet themselves laughing.
Daredevil dropped both "you're insane" and "I'll take you down"... lol all they needed was an instance of swapping "kill" with "destroy" and they'd have the trifecta of classic cartoony hero-villain banters. Any yet hey, to their credit, they still pulled it off!
There’s nothing wrong with something feeling like a comic book at all, these ARE comic book characters after all and some of the best arcs of this show ARE best on comic book storylines here as you can make comic characters sound EXACTLY like real people all the time. No idea on where your coming from when you say but you’re completely wrong to do and say so!
@@Gadget-Walkmen He's not wrong at all. The comic books are obviously a much inferior way of telling stories, the dialogue is not written nearly as well. Compare the scene to the comic and there's probably a clear winner. Clearly here inspiration is better than adaptation, hence why (I think) everything that marvel does is inspired by instead of adapted.
@@JustapErson He IS wrong entirely AND you are as well as NOTHING you've said here makes ANY sense at all as there are COUNTLESS comic books that have VASTLY superior style of storytelling when your properly tell a story WITHIN that medium such as Watchmen, The Killing Joke, Batman: Hush, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen are all WAY better than their live actions and animated film counterparts because of how well the story is told here. You BADLY saying that "tHe cOmIC bOoKs Are ObIVoUsLY a MuCH inFerIoR wAy oF teLlIng StORiEs" is 100% WRONG as NOTHING about comic books are "inFeRioR" in ANY way if you actually bothered to see how fantastic ways stories have been told through mediums. "the dialogue is not written nearly as well." LOL Just no. spoken like someone whose NEVER read a comic as there is countless comic books with phenomenal dialogue that's better than even movies like Watchmen, V for Vendetta, Ultimate Spider-man, The Killing Joke, Daredevil: Born Again. You have NO idea on what you're talking about at all when you say this nonsense of "tHe dIaLOgue iS nOt WrItTeN nEaRlY aS wElL.", lol just no. The dialogue is written PHENOMENALLY and spectacularly well and done. The Dialogue is written JUST as well if you actually bothered to see how well written they all are. The only thing you've established here is that you've NEVER read a comic book in your life or you completely failed to understand how excellently well done they are for you to be spewing out this nonsense right here entirely in ANY way, that' for certain. "Compare the scene to the comic and there's probably a clear winner." This scene isn't pulled from ANY specific comic at all and just because it's live action, doesn't mean it's good at all. There are plenty of comic book that are WAY better than it's live action and animated counterparts like The Killing Joke, Watchmen, Batman: Hush, as I've mentioned beforehand and the source material of the comic are WAY better overall in comparison. The "probably clear winner" is whatever is done RIGHT within it's own medium correctly as there is such thing as a BAD adaption, which you fail to notice here whenever you say anything here at all. "Clearly here inspiration is better than adaptation," There is no "cLeArLy hErE" AT ALL as all it matters is WHAT the context is for one to be better than the other in the SPECIFIC situation you're talking about here. Inspiration and adaption can ONLY be as good as whatever they're doing within their own medium, that's it. "hence why (I think) everything that marvel does is inspired by instead of adapted." Obviously whatever Marvel does is inspired by comics than directly adapting any specific storyline EXACTLY as it was but like I said, Marvel does a excellent job at doing what they do through inspiration from what's been done in THEIR specific context, just like other Cinematic Universes should do so as well. In other cases, adapted stories can be done FANTASTICALLY well from adaption of any comic storyline and it can be just as amazing as any inspired by storyline, like I said, it all depends on what's been done on a case by case scenario which you don't get AT ALL here in the slightest.
this is why I need MCU to dive into street level stuff way more, outside of someone like Spider-Man you wouldn't get this type of dialogue with the Avengers or anyone else lmaoo
@@storm5ds68 i mean all of their villains are crazy psychopaths' to a being out of this world, for the avengers, yeah you try to do "humanely talk" to Thor go ahead, like the only normal convo of the avengers is Stark and Rogers ramble in Age of Ultron while their breaking logs at Clints house.
@@storm5ds68 the avengers aren’t like this in the comics, they deal with people who constantly try to do something to the planet or the universe. You can’t always just sit down and have a philosophical argument with someone when they have an army trying to kill people.
One underrated thing in this scene that also should be worth mentioning is how Frank is not trying to convince Matt but make Matt UNDERSTAND his reasons. He even tells him that “I’m not a bad guy red”. The problem is the trauma Frank holds onto mixed with the fact he isn’t necessarily FULLY wrong about the ideals of criminals and how easy it is for them to get out and to strike again. It’s just the way he handles it.
@@johnLennon255 ehhh, not much. to understand is to realise the place where which the opinion falls from. to convince to change the actions based off what is said
@@johnLennon255no, kinda like with Thanos in Infinity War. We understand why Thanos believes that he need to wipe out half the life in the universe. But do you agree with what he's doing? Kinda like that. Understand his motives but don't agree with them.

Why is it that I get the feeling that Batman just wants to play cat and mouse with criminals? Like he just throws them in prison knowing they'll go back and boom, he's got another game night again to satisfy his desires to take them out. Damn the victims of these criminals, the bat wants to play.
@@user-ko5ul7yi1x more like batman trying to fix the system by the book with his only friend Jim in a f*cked up city. Both of them trust each other to the core and know both of them won't crack. If they did that means they lost the self righteousness to protect the city. He know murder is a crime that is the end and non redeemable. Plus batman is a detective not an executioner.

@@carenthusiasm345 "he wouldn't have helped a lot of villians to redeem themselves and become productive to the city for the greater good." *Joker exists*
Yknow, something tells me that Frank, even as The Punisher is still a Soldier longing for death after the shit he'd been through, at least that's what I got from that line... it's kinda sad...
not everyone is capable of redemption, but some people are. If someone kills your family etc, and you kill that person, personally I wouldnt blame you for it (even though you probably... shouldnt..) But that doesnt mean that objectively that person is incapable of becoming better, or that that person didnt have a reason to do what they did. Even if it's just that they were paid to do it, as disgusting as that might be. Or in Frank's case, if your family just got in the way of a gang fight (which he thinks is what happened). There's no way that out of the lets say 100 people Punisher kills, every single one of them is an evil rotten bastard down to their core, even if one out of 100 of them really is. You can't know that if you were under the same circumstances you wouldnt have been a criminal yourself. You cant know what lead them down that path, or what they would do if they were given a way out. It's not like he's exclusively going after the big crime bosses either, everyone is fair game to him. Of course in a life or death situation you dont have time to contemplate everyone's sob story, but the Punisher basically goes out of his way to kill people and he's proud of it too.
While that's possible that redemption can occur you have to remember that they stole someone else's life and opportunities to grow. They aren't more worthy of life than the people they killed. Even if they could change they forfeit that chance when they steal it from others. If you kill an innocent you don't deserve the second chance you didn't give them. It's not just about killing. There will always be a difference between killing an innocent person and an evil person.
92Beyo I gotta disagree with you. I think Matt's argument was kind of ridiculous. About hope and light in ppl. You're not gonna change Frank's mind with any type of spiritual shit lol. But I guess it depends on your point of view.
The way they make their characters sound like they’re actually having an argument instead of repeating memorized lines is amazing. Two amazing, severely underrated actors
You're so godamn right. Even with all the publicity they've gotten in recent years - Bernthal in Punisher, Walking Dead, Shot Caller, The Unforgivable and Charlie Cox in Daredevil, Theory of Everything, Legacy... Even with all of that, these guys are so fucking criminally underrated it's ridiculous. One thing Marvel Netflix did impossibly well, better than pretty much any other superhero franchising - the casting.
@@alexwyckoff8962 Marvel has some insane luck with casting, Im telling ya. Their casting department should be set for life from Disney, their work is that good. The entire first avengers cast, Tom Holland, Charlie Cox, John Bernthal, Vincent D'Onofrio, the entire Gaurdians of the Galaxy crew, both 1 and 2, etc.
Holy crap. Writers who obviously understand the characters and who have read the source material were behind this scene. Sad that Disney has abandoned that approach with their current crop of shows.
LOL that's 100% NOT true at all as Disney writers CAN be this good as This show was made and written UNDER Disney. You do realize this WAS a disney show FOR netflix, right? And disney writers in general everywhere CAN learn and do good to do better completely and entirely for their shows as they've stated they're going to learn from what they've done to do BETTER than before.

The most human exchange between the hero & the anti-hero that you will ever watch, see, witness or encounter. Take your pick. This was so spot on. You have to appreciate it no matter what. It doesn’t get more real than this.
To be honest, I'd be with the Punisher on this one, because do you know what question I would ask Daredevil? How long do innocent people have to grieve and fear for themselves and their loved ones while you wait for evil men to find redemption?
I REALLY like how the Punisher can't look Daredevil in the eye in all of this. Knowing he is blind, he freely makes it show that he doesn't feel justified with his body language. He moves around, does other things, and even when sitting in front of him, he looks side to side instead of looking straight at him. I LOVE that.
@@the8u9 he kinda does the same thing in walking dead and wolf of wall street where he looks off to the side when he's annoyed at someone. He probably does the same thing in real life lol
"What happens the day someone decides you deserve it?" "Tell you what, they better not miss." The fantastic discussion aside, this line always cracked me up.
He is self-aware, he knows that he has done some bad shit, torture, killing innocents especially during his stint in Kandahar, and he blames himself for the death of his family. Ultimately, he believes that he deserves to be punished as well and to be put down. But until that day comes, he is gonna take all the beatings the world gonna give him, and kill all the degenerates on his way to his own demise.
My favorite part is how it actually sounds like 2 people talking like you can actually imagine people having this argument. The writing and the actors portraying it. Perfection
The way when they talk over each other while arguing yet you can still hear them because the actors delivered their lines and gave each other room to be heard. Just wow
Afflicted15 Both metaphorically and literally. Matt is blind literally, but also does not see that some people are beyond redemption, while Frank is a veteran literally, but also has experience in seeing that pure evil exists, and that evil will never change
We kind of got a scene similar to this whenever Tony and Steve talked about the sokovia accords. The idea of being under the governments surveillance and being independent
+Max Frankow enlisted men spend a lot of time answering questions lazer quick to sgts. If you spend a few years doing something consistently you would become good at it.
That's because he's right, evil people don't deserve the slightest sympathy. They prey on the weak and people like Frank (i.e. the police,military,and sheepdog civillians) prey on them.
What I love most about this scene is that it reflects the conversation Matt and Foggy had in the first season but while those two were discussing the dangers of vigilantism Frank and Matt are here discussing the principles and morality behind it
@@DoctorDewgong average goody two shoes daredevil thinking things in life are like in tv shows that everyone can be fixed,hope? lol ask about hope to the victims of criminals the only hope u gonna get is for the criminals to pay one way or another
@@matheuscruz8574 if I remember correctly Frank said it first in the Punisher meets Daredevil comic a while back by Frank Miller. I don't know the source so you'd have to look it up.
Yeah basically except Batman will find many other ways and methods to take down criminals outside of killing them that some will call questionable, like in Batman TAS where a criminal was barely hanging for his life and begged Batman & Robin for help, but Batman refused until he got the information he wanted even coldly stating “we’re not the police.” Batman & Daredevil have a strong moral code against taking lives but the difference is Batman wouldn’t mind breaking every bone in a criminals body to achieve his mission, while Daredevil will only get brutal against crime if the situation gets crazy, otherwise he’ll mostly just try to knock criminals out quickly and will only resort to actual pain when it comes to interrogation.
Kind of yeah, Daredevil is religous and that guides his view of taking life while Batmans is guided by his parents death causing him to never want to see another person die like that. Frank is a lot more brutal than redhood, redhood would use fear to keep criminals in line the punisher would just kill them
Alex USTP I’m glad that I wasn’t the only person that seen how The Punisher versus Daredevil debate is similar to how people that support death penalty versus the people that are against the death penalty.
If it was your love one depends on your believe cause some want them forever in jail and some want them dead it should be left to the victims families if they live or die
@@toniotrussardi8126 jail time isn't supposed to fix them it's supposed to remove people from society who are a danger to society. Your solution is to just kill??
So did Daredevil whose father was murdered and he lost his eyesight. That didn't make him bitter. He saw the difference between vengeance and justice and chose to do the right thing. If he wanted, he could be far more deadlier than Punisher. Would have brought the entire mob and mafia of New York to their knees single handedly but he chose not to.
@@MrMadhusudhan45 totally different. Matt's dad died when he was blind and he was a kid. Still innocent. Frank was already a grown man in the military and had his family brutally murdered in front of him.
Let's check out more comics information: • Elektra died in front of him and thar didn't made him bitter (ok, just a little, but he didn't turned into a Punisher) • Karen died in front of him • Foggy "died" in front of him • Blindspot (he is like a son to DD) was blinded by a serial killer in "front" of him (he hearded everything) • Milla Donovan got crazy little by little in front of him • Heather Glenn committed suicide after a phone call with him • His personal life was literally destroyed on Born Again • He broke up with Kirsten McDuffie on a terrible way • He was possessed by a demon and had to "kill" himself for stopping him All of this and much more are daredevil's life tragedies, and he never turned up to what Frank is. Daredevil is a character *made* for being destroyed and *always* get up. That's the main difference about Daredevil and Punisher: Red gets up, Frank stays down.
this scene still feel so organic. i really feel like the director just told them to defend their side and just go at it for a bit. Stumbling over words, talking over each other, the yelling at certain points,, feels totally natural

Their ideologies were explained perfectly in this scene: Daredevil believes that every human being, no matter how deplorable, still have some good in them, and thus should not be killed. The Punisher believes that the people he puts down have no good left in them, and thus are not worth letting live. This is why Daredevil is one of the best shows i've ever watched.
Maybe him and Spider-Man could meet each other and they have similar argument. I mean DD and Spider-Man have the similar ideologies that go against Punisher’s
Even though i fcking dig Jon Berntal as a Punisher, deep in my heart I don't wish to see him ruined by Disney. They have no guts to make Punisher with the same rating as Netflix did. All we gonna get , is movie for kids and Chinese with 12+rate. Mark my words when they gonna ruin Daredevil. Scene from Spiderman already confirmed my concerns, it's all about fun now and nothing serious. Hawkeye , in the meantime ruined Wilson Fisk already . Scene looks like some avengers movie (explosion near character, throwback for 15 meters and hit by a car and not a single drop of blood, like nothing even happened to him) that's a Circus. P.S: even Jon Bernthal said he won't return as a Punisher unless Disney willing to make changes in ratings. He don't wana ruin his character.
@boobie maniac Only if Disney would give back filming rights to Netflix, otherwise it's gonna be horsesh.t, and Berntal knows it as a fun of Punisher character so he will not take part of ruining it.
I'm with Frank on this. Because heroes like Daredevil, Batman, Spider-Man, all the heroes who refuse to kill because they believe a person can be redeemed, are always making an implicit moral calculation when they say that, and it's that the potential good in an evil person is worth sacrificing the actual good in all the innocent victims they hurt. And I think that's a terrible moral position to take. If the point of being a hero is to make the world a better place filled with goodness, then it only makes sense to get rid of the people who snuff that goodness out, even if a tiny bit of goodness can be found in them.
@@nobody-fp5is It's really no different than what we and every other society has done throughout human history. That's why the counterargument makes no sense. The history of humanity is a history of governmental bodies defining the boundaries of morality, deciding who is deserving of punishment/death or not. For thousands of years, the decisions delivered by these governing authorities were about as arbitrary as any rogue vigilante, only compounded and legitimized by the overbearing power of the state. Even in the modern world, we haven't really come that far. Our so-called justice systems are only distinguished by virtue of the number of people (jurors) who get to decide on a person's fate, and judges who have to abide by specific punishments regulated by, again, an overbearing authoritative governmental institution. All of these are just as arbitrary as what Frank Castle does, and the way we do things is no more accurate or fool-proof than what Castle does, regardless of how much we like to pretend that it is. Innocent people get sentenced to death row or life in prison in our justice system all the time, and guilty people go free all the time. Perhaps juries and courts are slightly better at not making these kinds of mistakes than vigilantes would be, but I'm willing to bet that they aren't that much better. And even then, the actual punishments meted out to criminals are completely arbitrary, the decision of any jury no matter how seemingly unprejudiced is going to be colored to some degree by bias, and judges are likewise biased regardless of how much we think otherwise. This idea that a liberal judicial system is a more functional alternative to vigilante justice is a joke, and society believes it because it's only marginally true and it makes people feel more secure. You could argue that vigilante justice is often excessive in its retribution, and I can agree to that. On the other hand, the criminal justice system is often not nearly hard enough on big-time criminals, and also too hard on people who have committed very trivial offenses. The only reason that a justice system is preferable to vigilante justice is because it keeps society stable and orderly, and it makes people feel comfortable with the state of things.
There's one major problem with that view though: What if you get it wrong? I'm sure you've heard the stories about innocent bystanders in active shootings who took down the shooter only to get shot dead when the cops arrive on the scene. The cops' actions in that moment make sense, they're showing up to a shooting gallery and when they arrive they find a bunch of dead bodies and a guy with a gun in his hand but when they unload on him they're killing an innocent man.
@@bagser1 Juries and judges get things wrong too. Plenty of innocent victims have gone to prison for life or death row through juridical incompetence or malpractice, or through pure jury bias. Whether it's one lone vigilante or a court full of people, you can't escape bias and human error. The justice system doesn't make the "what if you're wrong" problem go away.
It’s really a question of morality most of the time for people the logical choice would be just to kill said villain like the joker etc but at the same time if you kill every bad guy that comes what’s the difference between you and them.Killing someone is still. A sin whether if they deserved it or not
@@awesomerad6022 No, it doesn't make us the same. I really hate when people say that. It's one of the dumbest, most morally inept statements probably ever made. No, killing somebody who likes to murder innocent people or rpe people or do any other heinous crime, DOES NOT make us the same as them. You know why? Because the people we'd be killing aren't innocent. When you say shit like that, what you're actually doing is morally equating people like the Joker to the people he kills, which is a morally reprehensible and nonsensical thing to say. There are already millions of ways that "we" are better than "them." If killing was the only thing that separated "us" from "them", then you're basically saying that everyone is already a monster and no one is good.
Everyone pointing out how the dialogue sounds like an actual conversation proves that A. Both actors are incredible and B. That whoever wrote the dialogue is a fucking artist at their work
"You ever doubt yourself Frank? "Not even for a second" This is what I love about The Punisher. He feels no remorse for what he did. His sense of justice overwhelms his conscience. Nothing can stop him once he decides someone should die. EDIT: I’m not saying I 100% agree with Punisher’s beliefs. What I admire most about him is that he never doubts himself. Most heroes would feel conflicted about their choices, but not him. He never goes back on his word except for a really compelling reason (like the time he nearly killed John Pilgrim but ultimately decided against it).
I think that the Penance Stare makes u feel whatever your “victims” felt when you hurted/killed them I think that it doesnt work on Frank because he doesnt feel remorse, And if he was a “Bad” guy he would feel like everything bad that happens to him is deserved He doesnt feel guilty for his actions, He actually believes that everyone he killed deserved it, And if he “feels” their pain, He doesnt care, For him they are scum on the earth that doesnt deserve to live
The Penance Stare's power and judgement depends on how much the Rider wants to punish the sinner and its more than possible Ghost Rider allowed Frank to live as the only difference between them was Frank wasn't supernaturally powered. He was merely shocked that all the people Frank killed were evil and that he doesn't regret killing anyone as most people would even if they were evil.
I love how much of an emphasis the show gave to daredevils ideals of not taking a human life. The expression, the desparation in his voice to make punisher understand was immense in this scene
I honestly agree with Frank’s argument a lot. Some deserve redemption, but most, even if a traumatic run in with one of them were to happen, they’d chalk it up to “I’m lucky, but I’m gonna keep doing my own thing”
Frank kills those who specifically have had multiple chances to change and chose not to. You never hear of punisher murdering a 1st time offender snatching a purse from an old lady. He kills serial rapists, murderers, and kidnappers. He goes for the lowest society has to offer and DD sees everyone as a first time offender in his eyes so he alwayse thinks another chance is an option. For these types of human beings, they gave up that chance a long before they ran into him or the Punisher. Even the justice system itself agrees with Frank to a degree, as some crimes can literally earn you a lawful death as punishment.
@@qualicumjack3906No he isn't. There are a good amount of criminals who change their ways and become good, functioning members of society. This has been the case billions of times throughout Human history. However, not all criminals are like this. So both Frank AND Matt are right, and they're both wrong. And that's the point. Neither has a perfect argument and they're both extremely flawed
@Avenging Demon no. Its very subjective. There is no right answer. Every case with different scenarios need to be looked at carefully, and then make a fair decision to both parties. But us humans are too impatient for that, so we decide the easier one, hence the law system.
@@lex_rodriguez why? Every person he kills is irredeemable, and they are sick murderers, rapists freaks. Some people deserve to die for their sins, often because they're too numerous to count. You probably live life hoping the best of people, and that's nice, I wish I could. But I can't, I've seen the shittyness of people and how they won't change. I don't think all criminals should die and I don't think all murderers should die, so do end up repenting and feeling regret and sadness at what they did. But then there are the ones who take pride in it, they deserve nothing
Metalhead2968 4 Life That’s the thing. You agree with killing but also oppose the thought of killing. That’s why this debate is subjective. There is no correct answer. You can’t have the idea of: Kill this guy because, don’t kill this guy because. They have both killed, thus both deserve punishment. Also, nearly 7/10 of humans on this doomed planet is shitty. Only on a rare occasion will you meet a genuinely kind person. Stay safe during this pandemic my good sir.
That's my favorite part too. He gets hoarse . I think because he's not talking about other men. He's talking about himself too. He wants redemption for himself as well.
Here's the problem with Daredevil's argument: yes, some people deserve a second chance, but what message does that send to future criminals who wanna commit heinous crimes? It shows that people can get a 2nd chance and maybe do the same heinous act against an innocent person. Frank's argument makes more sense because of the message it sends: You a rapist, pedophile, etc? You're gonna go in the morgue. No questions. It prevents, or atleast makes people think twice about doing those sort of crimes ever
Theyre both wrong. You dont give a man a second chance to kill you and your children and you dont kill him either. You kneecap him or cut of his hands or eliminate his ability to be a threat. You make it so he cant do it again. Killing is unnecessary most of the time. You get the same results by making so they simply cant do it again but are still alive to think about it. Bullet in the knew. Dislocate his joints so hell be lucky to ever regain feeling. Shatter his legs. Cut off his primary hand. Take out his eyes, etc. Ironic punishment or poetic justice. You decide

I don’t know how is the situation in North America but as someone who was born in Latin America I can’t help being on Punisher side. I mean there have being cases of a thug head shooting a 8 years old child just for fun and being released one week after being caught. That’s why a lot of people of my generation studied and worked their asses of to literally ran away to other continents so we can start a new life. Growing up in places like this makes you lacks of hope.
I can relate, I've lived around gang violence in Puerto Rico. The bastards go to jail and when the come out they do the same shit again. They're animals.
i grew up in africa and i also 100% agree with punisher, ''rehabilitation'' in general is a very privileged thing imo that can only work in places like norway, there is no rehabilitating the ppl i grew up around...
I watched daredevil about 2 years ago after I watched this video of their "argument". To all the people who are saying punisher is right(or they side with the punisher) When you see the outcome of their ideologies and you realise how much daredevil is holding inside of him you are gonna have mad respect for him!
Daredevil doesn’t even know how many people he has killed. Many of the goons he punches, kicks in the head & throws down stairs could have died later. He doesn’t know.
While there are those that have changed, what about those that can't change their ways? Daredevil sees good in all people, which is absolutely fucking retarded. While there are those that have a POSSIBLY of changing, his logic risks innocent people's live all because of Daredevil's stupid ideology to get murdered, raped etc. While Punisher's way makes sure that no innocent person get hurt by putting down criminals that deserve to die in his point of view.
Acute Cloudd yeah SOME people really can change... but how about some that unable to? how many victim has to suffer from them before they finally change?
+Thossaphorn Asawachinachot One thing that can then complicate things even further is that if one builds a culture, where the common mindset is “once a bad guy, always a bad guy”, then this could become a self-fulfilling prophecy that increases the amount of irredeemable monsters in society, the very thing which is often provided as proof that Punisher’s methods are needed in the first place. (a bunch of extra thoughts below): If a person has done something horrible in the past, but still feels a grain of genuine guilt and conflict, then being surrounded by people who basically voice the message of “men like you can never change” is not going to help him. If anything, that might convince him even further that he cannot change, making it even more likely that he will not even try to get off of his current path. In those hypothetical cases, then that could still increase the amount of people he/she hurts before being caught/killed. Similarly, Punisher definitely has an important point when he says that the justice system is screwed up, sick with corruption, and/or inept. But at the same time, if everyone believes as he does that becoming a vigilante who executes criminals is the only choice left, then that only increases the chances of us having a future where nobody even tries to fix our justice system. In short, the justice system might become broken beyond repair, but possibly only because everyone treats it as such. It is kind of like Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein”, with the one difference being that it involves a man/system who actually is somewhat of a monster having its destiny of becoming an even worse monster (or at least not turning good) further sealed, whereas Frankenstein’s creature actually was innocent and child-like, only to have its fate of growing into a monster be sealed by society treating him as one. I can sympathize with both of their points of view. I think what sums up the differences between Punisher and Daredevil’s mindsets is that Daredevil is willing to take a risk, for better or worse, in hopes that the door for a better society/humanity can be opened. Punisher is convinced that it is not possible for society/humanity to get much better, so he does what he feels will at least guarantee that it cannot get worse than it already is.
Acute Cloudd No, Punisher can be right. In the real world if the cops tell you surrender you do so or get shot. Matt has a point that they should *try* to bring criminals to justice, but it’s foolish to say no killing them no matter what. Sometimes it’s them or some innocent family.
why couldnt Batman v Superman have been like this as well i am a marvel and DC fan but i felt let down by DOJ tbh the ultimate edition was a bit better but i ultimately believe Zack Snyder fucked it up because it is him who has final say on the script and i still fear for JL this year with him directing it
I wished Season 2 was more like this. While I loved Elektra, her and The Hand took the spot light away from Punisher. I cared way more for Frank's revenge and his arguments with Matt than The Hand's master plan (which was underwhelming in Defenders)
I would definitely side with Punisher on this one. The problem for fighting for Truth and Justice in the world of superhero is that the battle never ends. The hero brings the villain to jail only for the villain to go out and cause chaos once again. I think Joker from Injustice 1 said it well. "You think you can have a family. That locking me up will magically reform me. And they'll be safe. So big, so dumb."
@@arkhamknight9001 yeah, but the problem is that Punisher's methods can also end up killing innocents or create more criminals who may end up taking the place of the guys he killed. (Like a never ending cycle)
@@anjaneyasreetrout2444 sorry for the late reply just got back home from work. That is true IF there is anyone from that world that can replace the bad guys. Honestly the no-kill rule is for superheroes who are either naive or just won't see they're error. In a crossover between Marvel and DC when Punisher was about to kill the Joker, Batman arrived and just allows him to run away. In my opinion the Cons far outweighs the Pros. While people will call anti-heroes psychopaths, murderers, or among other thing. They do what no other heroes could never do. End the War between villains and heroes. Of course that is if anyone who has the guts to step up on the big table and took his/her place. Then good luck.
@@arkhamknight9001 I get your perspective, but if we’re talking about the Punisher specifically, he literally at the end of this very episode, destroys the biker gang’s bikes at the bar across the street, inciting them into charging the apartment complex full of innocents, all just to escape Daredevil who was kicking his ass. And who has to save the day? Daredevil
I think this season could’ve been perfection if they took out everything surrounding The Hand and just focused on DD and Punisher along with their moral clash
i went back to watch daredevil just for the punisher scenes, literally skipped over everything with the hand i didnt care lol punisher just meshes perfectly in this season
"You hit 'em and they get back up. I hit 'em and they stay down." reminds me of a line Batman says in Batman v Superman, "Criminals are like weeds, Alfred; pull one up, another grows in its place." If you put one in jail, they'll break out. If you kill one, another one will take its place. Its a never ending battle, so whichever way you choose to do it, you'd still be making the world a safer place.
Yeah. I'm on Punisher on this that's the problem about fighting for Truth and Justice in the superhero world. The battle never ends. It's an unending game of cat and mouse with the hero bringing the villain to prison only for them to get out do the same thing again. Joker probably said it well in Injustice: God's Among Us. "You think you can have a family. That locking me up will magically reform me. And they'll be safe. So big, so dumb."
@@arkhamknight9001 yeah but you need both kinds of people. The truth is, some people can be redeemed. And that's worth it. But the number of people who are willing to do the redeeming is very small. Most people don't care about others problems. They don't believe in forgiveness. You screw up once? Your done. You had one chance and you blew it. You're beyond redemption. Most people feel that way. It takes an incredible amount of character and willpower to be the one who gives others a second chance. The problem with this philosophical debate from a superhero perspective though is that the superheros never actually do anything to help those they fight to actually become better. So the idea of killing the villain makes more sense. That's why I loved animated justice league. The scene with flash and the "villain" who was off his meds while drinking in the bar was perfect.
I agree more with Punisher in this case. Daredevil is more a reactive force to protect the innocent while Punisher is proactive in removing the threats.
Ha, funny. Frank reacts most if not all the time, he doesn't seek people before they do something. They got Franks attention after they've done something. Frank is a murderer and that's about it.
This argument has to be ONE OF the overall best dialogues in recent TV history. Excellently written, realistically delivered by DD and Punisher, containing the perfect "push and pull", tension and release..... Pure freaking gold.
For me i think they're both right. The problem is that they're both too absolute. Frank thinks all criminals deserve death. But some can have redemption. While matt says that they can be redeemed some people don't really deserve to breath. They're points both have flaws,which is why they are both right yet wrong at the same time
@Aaron Neville Jessica Jones has no morality but whatever she personally feels. She treats some criminals like scimbags and others like victims, based purely on how much she identifies with them.
In my opinion if comic books were real then daredevils way is more easier but this is reality and in reality u gotta make the hard choice that punisher makes
@@darrenwalsh5030 Exactly.That's the way it's always been in the comics,too. You can have The Punisher and Groot,Howard The Duck and Squirrel Girl and so on and so forth all exist in the same universe. I love that about comics,that you can have all of these different kinds of characters all co-exist in the same universe.
This is one of the best philosophical debates in television history.
i agree because it has the audience thinking who's method works better when it comes to dealing with criminals
Same with civil war it got you questioning whether the avengers need to be controlled by government or given free reign to do what they want
It's also cool because they get to the core of each argument, and attack both head on.
i am gutted that Dawn of Justice was not like this Snyder fucked up Batman v Superman 3 years of build up and that is what fans were given as a result the Ultimate edition was slightly better but the main fault was the script and Snyder is at fault becuse he authorized that script to be used for the movie i fear for JL this year due to him being the one that directed it
Right? That movie could have been about the debate of revenge vs justice, and where the line is drawn and how we define each. But it was bogged down with just poor pacing.
I hope JL is at least a good action movie.
That's why Punisher made such a great antagonist to Daredevil, because of the deep moral debate.
This is one of the most realistic arguments in tv history. They cut each other off and they stumble on their words and it’s amazing
Definitely. And so intense. And they both have good points
Take notes Aaron Sorkin.
Kellz Main yep these two are amazing as their characters
@@spartancolonel Aaron Sorkin doesn't need any notes he's excellent at writing philosophical discussions and arguments in his shows and movies!
Yep. And when Daredevil called Frank insane at the end, I noticed how both sides are partially right. Insanity is repeating the same thing over and over, expecting a different outcome.
That’s precisely what Daredevil does; he has the same people arrested or injured (or killed, in Nobu’s case), and it doesn’t work, yet he continues to do it, expecting a different outcome.
"you hit em and they get back up, I hit em and they stay down"

Daredevil is right, you cant kill because some "bad" people are redeemable and can/or are good people. It's impossible to know.
This version of Frank is emotionally unstable and mentally unhealthy. FURY is a 7 deadly sin for a reason, it doesn't justify your actions.
@@That_1_Bohemian all he did was call him insane and gave naive answer to franks unwavering based logic
@@That_1_Bohemiano if someone is shooting old women and the police kill them it's unjustified because the killer might have turned their life around? You're forgetting that in the real world if you attempt to kill someone or hurt them in any way shape or form that you're life is forfeit. If you don't believe that someone who takes lives by force and unjustly has the right to have their life taken by force then you're insane. I guess in you're opinion we should just release all the lifers in prison or release people on death row or all the rapists back into society so that they might try and not harm others by default.
No fan service, no flashy fight choreography, no dramatic score, just two damn good actors delivering a damn good argument in a damn good tv show.

@@hyphen6025 Sometimes that can be good as it fits certain characters as that's what they do but other times, Marvel movies can go WAY over board with that.
@@hyphen6025 There were jokes but they fit the character. Such as Santa Claus joke. Punisher has a very blunt personality so flipping off Daredevil with something so traditional fits him.
@@kaana8421 The Santa line isnt really a joke. Its a saying , comparing hope to a fantasy. A recent MCU joke wouldve been some goofy statement to undercut all the tension.
Well technically this scene is fan service as it is ripped directly from a punisher comic. It's almost an exact replication but yeah this scene is phenomenal and another great scene is the graveyard where Frank and daredevil talk.
This is the kind of scene the Disney+ shows will NEVER even strive for.
This is why I'm kinda excited yet scared of the Daredevil joining the Disney+ Shows because I'm kinda curious how they'll handle this but also nervous if they would ruin it. I'll just hope for the best. It's Marvel after all. Things usually work out sooner or later.

"You hit them, they get back up. I hit them and they _stay_ down."
Yep, that's definitely something the Punisher would say.
i think he did, in a comic book. they already had this argument in a old issue.
Rob "Punisher: Welcome back, frank" to be exact
Ian Greene "Vengeance has consumed you, it's consuming them,...I'm done letting it consume me" - something Black Panther would say

Matt is right that there is good even in evil people but Frank is right that these people would never try and bring out that good in themselves
Most reasonable take. I hate seeing people shit on Daredevil's convictions.
@@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter Yeah sometimes people just see too much of the bad things than recognising the good things. The world isn't black and white and not everyone who did wrong was bad and redemption was possible in very bad people too. But Frank is also right about it that sometimes it's just too late to fix it and going back. There are people who will never be able to change or becoming better sometimes at the end of an day they just smile and laugh at others even if they are going to die
@@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter For an example look at batman. A lot of things could have been avoided if he just have got rid of the Joker who definitely can't be fixed.
@@JazzyUnderscoreTrumpeter What makes vigilantes who won't kill unrealistic isn't that regular people DON'T believe in not killing, even criminals. Obviously most people have that moral fiber.
What makes it unrealistic is that yes, lots of people wouldn't believe in killing, but virtually ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE would never feel the need for vengeance against criminals that is required to become a vigilante.
Likewise anyone with enough burning vengeance against criminals, would find it also REMARKABLY difficult to not kill the worst of them.
So, I don't see ANYONE 'shitting' on DDs convictions. I see people remarking on the serious implausibility of a VIGILANTE who risks his life and serious jail time, to punish criminals, and then also will only punish them so much, and stop before risking their lives.
It's more unrealistic than most of what else happens in these shows. That's all.
@@freighttrain7143 respectfully, I've seen many people just outright say that DD is being an immature idiot. His way is obviously less pragmatic, but the reason he believes what he believes and acts the way he acts is super important for his character. I see people dismissing him completely because he doesn't do things Frank's way. I love their dichotomy, and it's not really an argument with an easy answer. I don't think it's inaccurate while going through multiple comments sections to say that people are outright shitting on his convictions. They're free to do so, obviously, it just annoys me to see, and I'm clearly in the minority. I appreciated the comment I replied to because it was one of the few reasonably worded ones I could find.

There’s nothing wrong with something feeling like a comic book at all, these ARE comic book characters after all and some of the best arcs of this show ARE best on comic book storylines here as you can make comic characters sound EXACTLY like real people all the time. No idea on where your coming from when you say but you’re completely wrong to do and say so!
@@Gadget-Walkmen He's not wrong at all. The comic books are obviously a much inferior way of telling stories, the dialogue is not written nearly as well. Compare the scene to the comic and there's probably a clear winner.
Clearly here inspiration is better than adaptation, hence why (I think) everything that marvel does is inspired by instead of adapted.
@@JustapErson He IS wrong entirely AND you are as well as NOTHING you've said here makes ANY sense at all as there are COUNTLESS comic books that have VASTLY superior style of storytelling when your properly tell a story WITHIN that medium such as Watchmen, The Killing Joke, Batman: Hush, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen are all WAY better than their live actions and animated film counterparts because of how well the story is told here.
You BADLY saying that "tHe cOmIC bOoKs Are ObIVoUsLY a MuCH inFerIoR wAy oF teLlIng StORiEs" is 100% WRONG as NOTHING about comic books are "inFeRioR" in ANY way if you actually bothered to see how fantastic ways stories have been told through mediums.
"the dialogue is not written nearly as well."
LOL Just no. spoken like someone whose NEVER read a comic as there is countless comic books with phenomenal dialogue that's better than even movies like Watchmen, V for Vendetta, Ultimate Spider-man, The Killing Joke, Daredevil: Born Again.
You have NO idea on what you're talking about at all when you say this nonsense of "tHe dIaLOgue iS nOt WrItTeN nEaRlY aS wElL.", lol just no. The dialogue is written PHENOMENALLY and spectacularly well and done.
The Dialogue is written JUST as well if you actually bothered to see how well written they all are.
The only thing you've established here is that you've NEVER read a comic book in your life or you completely failed to understand how excellently well done they are for you to be spewing out this nonsense right here entirely in ANY way, that' for certain.
"Compare the scene to the comic and there's probably a clear winner."
This scene isn't pulled from ANY specific comic at all and just because it's live action, doesn't mean it's good at all. There are plenty of comic book that are WAY better than it's live action and animated counterparts like The Killing Joke, Watchmen, Batman: Hush, as I've mentioned beforehand and the source material of the comic are WAY better overall in comparison.
The "probably clear winner" is whatever is done RIGHT within it's own medium correctly as there is such thing as a BAD adaption, which you fail to notice here whenever you say anything here at all.
"Clearly here inspiration is better than adaptation,"
There is no "cLeArLy hErE" AT ALL as all it matters is WHAT the context is for one to be better than the other in the SPECIFIC situation you're talking about here.
Inspiration and adaption can ONLY be as good as whatever they're doing within their own medium, that's it.
"hence why (I think) everything that marvel does is inspired by instead of adapted."
Obviously whatever Marvel does is inspired by comics than directly adapting any specific storyline EXACTLY as it was but like I said, Marvel does a excellent job at doing what they do through inspiration from what's been done in THEIR specific context, just like other Cinematic Universes should do so as well.
In other cases, adapted stories can be done FANTASTICALLY well from adaption of any comic storyline and it can be just as amazing as any inspired by storyline, like I said, it all depends on what's been done on a case by case scenario which you don't get AT ALL here in the slightest.

One underrated thing in this scene that also should be worth mentioning is how Frank is not trying to convince Matt but make Matt UNDERSTAND his reasons. He even tells him that “I’m not a bad guy red”. The problem is the trauma Frank holds onto mixed with the fact he isn’t necessarily FULLY wrong about the ideals of criminals and how easy it is for them to get out and to strike again. It’s just the way he handles it.

Matt: congratulations you’ve played yourself
@@sebaslikesanimations1447 it's fixed
Frank “What have you seen?”
1:35 I love how punisher tells a blind guy to look around 🤣🤣🤣
I don't think he knows he's blind here at all.
Listen around red 😄
Smell around red
Feel around red
I might as well try it in real life..with real blind people😂
Bro really told daredevil to look around 😭
He’s knows that he can still see, he ain’t entirely blind. He even tests this.
Both sides have a point, that's the beauty of the scene.
But here's the rub: not everyone is capable of redemption.
not everyone is capable of redemption, but some people are. If someone kills your family etc, and you kill that person, personally I wouldnt blame you for it (even though you probably... shouldnt..) But that doesnt mean that objectively that person is incapable of becoming better, or that that person didnt have a reason to do what they did. Even if it's just that they were paid to do it, as disgusting as that might be. Or in Frank's case, if your family just got in the way of a gang fight (which he thinks is what happened). There's no way that out of the lets say 100 people Punisher kills, every single one of them is an evil rotten bastard down to their core, even if one out of 100 of them really is. You can't know that if you were under the same circumstances you wouldnt have been a criminal yourself. You cant know what lead them down that path, or what they would do if they were given a way out. It's not like he's exclusively going after the big crime bosses either, everyone is fair game to him. Of course in a life or death situation you dont have time to contemplate everyone's sob story, but the Punisher basically goes out of his way to kill people and he's proud of it too.
While that's possible that redemption can occur you have to remember that they stole someone else's life and opportunities to grow. They aren't more worthy of life than the people they killed. Even if they could change they forfeit that chance when they steal it from others. If you kill an innocent you don't deserve the second chance you didn't give them. It's not just about killing. There will always be a difference between killing an innocent person and an evil person.
92Beyo I gotta disagree with you. I think Matt's argument was kind of ridiculous. About hope and light in ppl. You're not gonna change Frank's mind with any type of spiritual shit lol. But I guess it depends on your point of view.
92Beyo I know a lot of other ppl said this too but once Matt started talking about hope and light in ppl he just sounded naive
The way they make their characters sound like they’re actually having an argument instead of repeating memorized lines is amazing. Two amazing, severely underrated actors
You're so godamn right. Even with all the publicity they've gotten in recent years - Bernthal in Punisher, Walking Dead, Shot Caller, The Unforgivable and Charlie Cox in Daredevil, Theory of Everything, Legacy...

He is self-aware, he knows that he has done some bad shit, torture, killing innocents especially during his stint in Kandahar, and he blames himself for the death of his family. Ultimately, he believes that he deserves to be punished as well and to be put down. But until that day comes, he is gonna take all the beatings the world gonna give him, and kill all the degenerates on his way to his own demise.

@@LoganSimpkins04 funny because daredevil has had that one bad day and kept going
Nah he said it in the show
So basically Batman is Daredevil and Red hood is Punisher here
Yeah basically except Batman will find many other ways and methods to take down criminals outside of killing them that some will call questionable, like in Batman TAS where a criminal was barely hanging for his life and begged Batman & Robin for help, but Batman refused until he got the information he wanted even coldly stating “we’re not the police.”
Batman & Daredevil have a strong moral code against taking lives but the difference is Batman wouldn’t mind breaking every bone in a criminals body to achieve his mission, while Daredevil will only get brutal against crime if the situation gets crazy, otherwise he’ll mostly just try to knock criminals out quickly and will only resort to actual pain when it comes to interrogation.
I like to think punisher is arguing for his own sake rather than being for someone else
Kind of yeah, Daredevil is religous and that guides his view of taking life while Batmans is guided by his parents death causing him to never want to see another person die like that. Frank is a lot more brutal than redhood, redhood would use fear to keep criminals in line the punisher would just kill them
“Hey Siri, what’s the definition of acting?”
What’s cool is that this is literally the death penalty debate; and both sides bring up great points
Alex USTP I’m glad that I wasn’t the only person that seen how The Punisher versus Daredevil debate is similar to how people that support death penalty versus the people that are against the death penalty.
If it was your love one depends on your believe cause some want them forever in jail and some want them dead it should be left to the victims families if they live or die
The thing with the death penalty is that if there is even a chance that a person didn’t do something it can cause innocent lives to be lost
Antonio Rodriguez That’s why the important part isn’t if they live or die, the important part comes in the law’s judgment and ours.
deloreandmc85 That’s a pretty black and white view of the world you got there buddy.
If you call the punisher a "Nut job" straight to his face and he leaves you alive, you're the luckiest.

@@afmorales7155 of what?
"There's really something broken in you."
I mean, the man had his wife and kids murdered in front of him.
So did Daredevil whose father was murdered and he lost his eyesight. That didn't make him bitter. He saw the difference between vengeance and justice and chose to do the right thing. If he wanted, he could be far more deadlier than Punisher. Would have brought the entire mob and mafia of New York to their knees single handedly but he chose not to.
@@MrMadhusudhan45 totally different. Matt's dad died when he was blind and he was a kid. Still innocent. Frank was already a grown man in the military and had his family brutally murdered in front of him.
Let's check out more comics information:
• Elektra died in front of him and thar didn't made him bitter (ok, just a little, but he didn't turned into a Punisher)
• Karen died in front of him
• Foggy "died" in front of him
• Blindspot (he is like a son to DD) was blinded by a serial killer in "front" of him (he hearded everything)
• Milla Donovan got crazy little by little in front of him
• Heather Glenn committed suicide after a phone call with him
• His personal life was literally destroyed on Born Again
• He broke up with Kirsten McDuffie on a terrible way
• He was possessed by a demon and had to "kill" himself for stopping him
All of this and much more are daredevil's life tragedies, and he never turned up to what Frank is. Daredevil is a character *made* for being destroyed and *always* get up. That's the main difference about Daredevil and Punisher: Red gets up, Frank stays down.
The tragic part about that line is that it's also referring to Frank's fractured skull.

@boobie maniac Only if Disney would give back filming rights to Netflix, otherwise it's gonna be horsesh.t, and Berntal knows it as a fun of Punisher character so he will not take part of ruining it.
I'm with Frank on this. Because heroes like Daredevil, Batman, Spider-Man, all the heroes who refuse to kill because they believe a person can be redeemed, are always making an implicit moral calculation when they say that, and it's that the potential good in an evil person is worth sacrificing the actual good in all the innocent victims they hurt. And I think that's a terrible moral position to take. If the point of being a hero is to make the world a better place filled with goodness, then it only makes sense to get rid of the people who snuff that goodness out, even if a tiny bit of goodness can be found in them.
@@nobody-fp5is It's really no different than what we and every other society has done throughout human history. That's why the counterargument makes no sense.
The history of humanity is a history of governmental bodies defining the boundaries of morality, deciding who is deserving of punishment/death or not. For thousands of years, the decisions delivered by these governing authorities were about as arbitrary as any rogue vigilante, only compounded and legitimized by the overbearing power of the state. Even in the modern world, we haven't really come that far. Our so-called justice systems are only distinguished by virtue of the number of people (jurors) who get to decide on a person's fate, and judges who have to abide by specific punishments regulated by, again, an overbearing authoritative governmental institution. All of these are just as arbitrary as what Frank Castle does, and the way we do things is no more accurate or fool-proof than what Castle does, regardless of how much we like to pretend that it is. Innocent people get sentenced to death row or life in prison in our justice system all the time, and guilty people go free all the time. Perhaps juries and courts are slightly better at not making these kinds of mistakes than vigilantes would be, but I'm willing to bet that they aren't that much better. And even then, the actual punishments meted out to criminals are completely arbitrary, the decision of any jury no matter how seemingly unprejudiced is going to be colored to some degree by bias, and judges are likewise biased regardless of how much we think otherwise. This idea that a liberal judicial system is a more functional alternative to vigilante justice is a joke, and society believes it because it's only marginally true and it makes people feel more secure. You could argue that vigilante justice is often excessive in its retribution, and I can agree to that. On the other hand, the criminal justice system is often not nearly hard enough on big-time criminals, and also too hard on people who have committed very trivial offenses. The only reason that a justice system is preferable to vigilante justice is because it keeps society stable and orderly, and it makes people feel comfortable with the state of things.
There's one major problem with that view though: What if you get it wrong?
I'm sure you've heard the stories about innocent bystanders in active shootings who took down the shooter only to get shot dead when the cops arrive on the scene. The cops' actions in that moment make sense, they're showing up to a shooting gallery and when they arrive they find a bunch of dead bodies and a guy with a gun in his hand but when they unload on him they're killing an innocent man.
@@bagser1 Juries and judges get things wrong too. Plenty of innocent victims have gone to prison for life or death row through juridical incompetence or malpractice, or through pure jury bias.
Whether it's one lone vigilante or a court full of people, you can't escape bias and human error. The justice system doesn't make the "what if you're wrong" problem go away.
It’s really a question of morality most of the time for people the logical choice would be just to kill said villain like the joker etc but at the same time if you kill every bad guy that comes what’s the difference between you and them.Killing someone is still. A sin whether if they deserved it or not
@@awesomerad6022 No, it doesn't make us the same. I really hate when people say that. It's one of the dumbest, most morally inept statements probably ever made. No, killing somebody who likes to murder innocent people or rpe people or do any other heinous crime, DOES NOT make us the same as them. You know why? Because the people we'd be killing aren't innocent. When you say shit like that, what you're actually doing is morally equating people like the Joker to the people he kills, which is a morally reprehensible and nonsensical thing to say. There are already millions of ways that "we" are better than "them." If killing was the only thing that separated "us" from "them", then you're basically saying that everyone is already a monster and no one is good.

"You ever doubt yourself Frank?
"Not even for a second"
This is what I love about The Punisher. He feels no remorse for what he did. His sense of justice overwhelms his conscience. Nothing can stop him once he decides someone should die.
EDIT: I’m not saying I 100% agree with Punisher’s beliefs. What I admire most about him is that he never doubts himself. Most heroes would feel conflicted about their choices, but not him. He never goes back on his word except for a really compelling reason (like the time he nearly killed John Pilgrim but ultimately decided against it).
That's why Ghost Rider's stare doesn't work on him.
@@GingerZombie29 which was bullshit because that's not how the penance stare works
Yeah, but that’s overestimating himself. Which is not always good. It can get the better of him.
I think that the Penance Stare makes u feel whatever your “victims” felt when you hurted/killed them
I think that it doesnt work on Frank because he doesnt feel remorse, And if he was a “Bad” guy he would feel like everything bad that happens to him is deserved
He doesnt feel guilty for his actions, He actually believes that everyone he killed deserved it, And if he “feels” their pain, He doesnt care, For him they are scum on the earth that doesnt deserve to live
The Penance Stare's power and judgement depends on how much the Rider wants to punish the sinner and its more than possible Ghost Rider allowed Frank to live as the only difference between them was Frank wasn't supernaturally powered. He was merely shocked that all the people Frank killed were evil and that he doesn't regret killing anyone as most people would even if they were evil.
I love how much of an emphasis the show gave to daredevils ideals of not taking a human life. The expression, the desparation in his voice to make punisher understand was immense in this scene
I honestly agree with Frank’s argument a lot. Some deserve redemption, but most, even if a traumatic run in with one of them were to happen, they’d chalk it up to “I’m lucky, but I’m gonna keep doing my own thing”
Frank's given people breaks before. Frank's just right
Frank is completely right 100%
Frank kills those who specifically have had multiple chances to change and chose not to. You never hear of punisher murdering a 1st time offender snatching a purse from an old lady. He kills serial rapists, murderers, and kidnappers. He goes for the lowest society has to offer and DD sees everyone as a first time offender in his eyes so he alwayse thinks another chance is an option. For these types of human beings, they gave up that chance a long before they ran into him or the Punisher. Even the justice system itself agrees with Frank to a degree, as some crimes can literally earn you a lawful death as punishment.
@@qualicumjack3906No he isn't. There are a good amount of criminals who change their ways and become good, functioning members of society. This has been the case billions of times throughout Human history.
However, not all criminals are like this. So both Frank AND Matt are right, and they're both wrong. And that's the point. Neither has a perfect argument and they're both extremely flawed
The street-level and more brutal version of the dialogue between the Vision and Ultron.
@Avenging Demon no. Its very subjective. There is no right answer. Every case with different scenarios need to be looked at carefully, and then make a fair decision to both parties. But us humans are too impatient for that, so we decide the easier one, hence the law system.
@Avenging Demon They're both right and they're both wrong; however, the fact that you think Frank is completely right is kinda unsettling.

You probably live life hoping the best of people, and that's nice, I wish I could. But I can't, I've seen the shittyness of people and how they won't change. I don't think all criminals should die and I don't think all murderers should die, so do end up repenting and feeling regret and sadness at what they did. But then there are the ones who take pride in it, they deserve nothing

That’s the thing. You agree with killing but also oppose the thought of killing. That’s why this debate is subjective. There is no correct answer. You can’t have the idea of: Kill this guy because, don’t kill this guy because. They have both killed, thus both deserve punishment.
Also, nearly 7/10 of humans on this doomed planet is shitty. Only on a rare occasion will you meet a genuinely kind person.
Stay safe during this pandemic my good sir.
@@sleepingzoro7530 no, someone that killed to protect innocent people, doesn't deserve punishment, period.
2:09 The way Charlie Cox's voice cracks a bit when he says "No, Frank, to try again, Frank." gets me every time.
That's my favorite part too. He gets hoarse . I think because he's not talking about other men. He's talking about himself too. He wants redemption for himself as well.
His father as well. Ray Nadeem from season 3. Redemption is possible
@@catherinesanchez1185 why does he want redemption for himself when he never did anything bad?

One of my favorite scenes in television history. I can't wait for more Daredevil in the MCU.
"You hit'em and they get back up. I hit'em and they STAY DOWN!"
Some agree with Daredevil
Some agree with The Punisher
While everyone agrees that their argument really makes you think about issues in real life
There's a third argument in there.
Bruh your everywhere dawg🤣
Here's the problem with Daredevil's argument: yes, some people deserve a second chance, but what message does that send to future criminals who wanna commit heinous crimes? It shows that people can get a 2nd chance and maybe do the same heinous act against an innocent person. Frank's argument makes more sense because of the message it sends: You a rapist, pedophile, etc? You're gonna go in the morgue. No questions. It prevents, or atleast makes people think twice about doing those sort of crimes ever
@@caffreydavis218 Depending on the crime. Death seems better for murderers, rapists and pedos, etc but petty theft or something don't deserve death
Theyre both wrong. You dont give a man a second chance to kill you and your children and you dont kill him either. You kneecap him or cut of his hands or eliminate his ability to be a threat. You make it so he cant do it again. Killing is unnecessary most of the time. You get the same results by making so they simply cant do it again but are still alive to think about it. Bullet in the knew. Dislocate his joints so hell be lucky to ever regain feeling. Shatter his legs. Cut off his primary hand. Take out his eyes, etc. Ironic punishment or poetic justice. You decide
“Shit I just killed a human being”
“That’s being generous”.
Awesome scene.
The fact that DD breaks his "No Kill" rule at the end when Nobu kills Elektra, proves Frank was right.
@@cinereous9214 He still fucking died, regenerating doesn't change the fact that he killed. He knew he would die, his enemy healing doesn't change his actions.
@@cinereous9214 the outlaw king has a point there comes a time where it comes down to the crunch sometimes its the best thing you can do for a human being
"One bad day from being like me"
@@theoutlawking9123 There's a lot of distance between kicking someone off a roof in a fight to save someone and going on a crusade where you leave no enemies alive like Frank.
I don’t know how is the situation in North America but as someone who was born in Latin America I can’t help being on Punisher side. I mean there have being cases of a thug head shooting a 8 years old child just for fun and being released one week after being caught. That’s why a lot of people of my generation studied and worked their asses of to literally ran away to other continents so we can start a new life. Growing up in places like this makes you lacks of hope.
I can relate, I've lived around gang violence in Puerto Rico. The bastards go to jail and when the come out they do the same shit again. They're animals.
i grew up in africa and i also 100% agree with punisher, ''rehabilitation'' in general is a very privileged thing imo that can only work in places like norway, there is no rehabilitating the ppl i grew up around...
I watched daredevil about 2 years ago after I watched this video of their "argument".
To all the people who are saying punisher is right(or they side with the punisher)
When you see the outcome of their ideologies and you realise how much daredevil is holding inside of him you are gonna have mad respect for him!
Daredevil has as much blood on his hands as the criminals he refuses to kill
Daredevil doesn’t even know how many people he has killed. Many of the goons he punches, kicks in the head & throws down stairs could have died later. He doesn’t know.
The brilliance of this argument is that they're both correct. They just have different times for their views to be appropriate.
Punisher is wrong. In the real world people have been reabilitated and changed their ways
While there are those that have changed, what about those that can't change their ways?
Daredevil sees good in all people, which is absolutely fucking retarded. While there are those that have a POSSIBLY of changing, his logic risks innocent people's live all because of Daredevil's stupid ideology to get murdered, raped etc.
While Punisher's way makes sure that no innocent person get hurt by putting down criminals that deserve to die in his point of view.
Acute Cloudd yeah SOME people really can change... but how about some that unable to? how many victim has to suffer from them before they finally change?

One thing that can then complicate things even further is that if one builds a culture, where the common mindset is “once a bad guy, always a bad guy”, then this could become a self-fulfilling prophecy that increases the amount of irredeemable monsters in society, the very thing which is often provided as proof that Punisher’s methods are needed in the first place.
(a bunch of extra thoughts below):
If a person has done something horrible in the past, but still feels a grain of genuine guilt and conflict, then being surrounded by people who basically voice the message of “men like you can never change” is not going to help him. If anything, that might convince him even further that he cannot change, making it even more likely that he will not even try to get off of his current path. In those hypothetical cases, then that could still increase the amount of people he/she hurts before being caught/killed. Similarly, Punisher definitely has an important point when he says that the justice system is screwed up, sick with corruption, and/or inept. But at the same time, if everyone believes as he does that becoming a vigilante who executes criminals is the only choice left, then that only increases the chances of us having a future where nobody even tries to fix our justice system. In short, the justice system might become broken beyond repair, but possibly only because everyone treats it as such. It is kind of like Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein”, with the one difference being that it involves a man/system who actually is somewhat of a monster having its destiny of becoming an even worse monster (or at least not turning good) further sealed, whereas Frankenstein’s creature actually was innocent and child-like, only to have its fate of growing into a monster be sealed by society treating him as one.
I can sympathize with both of their points of view. I think what sums up the differences between Punisher and Daredevil’s mindsets is that Daredevil is willing to take a risk, for better or worse, in hopes that the door for a better society/humanity can be opened. Punisher is convinced that it is not possible for society/humanity to get much better, so he does what he feels will at least guarantee that it cannot get worse than it already is.
Acute Cloudd No, Punisher can be right. In the real world if the cops tell you surrender you do so or get shot. Matt has a point that they should *try* to bring criminals to justice, but it’s foolish to say no killing them no matter what.
Sometimes it’s them or some innocent family.
the acting between Charlie and Jon were perfect.
This is the best debate at the heart of all superhero stuff.
Can't believe this show existed, it was perfect.
Best scene of season two. Daredevil vs. Punisher mental battle. Insane writing.
why couldnt Batman v Superman have been like this as well i am a marvel and DC fan but i felt let down by DOJ tbh the ultimate edition was a bit better but i ultimately believe Zack Snyder fucked it up because it is him who has final say on the script and i still fear for JL this year with him directing it
It really is a scene that Aaron Sorkin or David Mamot WISH they wrote. So well written with such terrific performances.
I wished Season 2 was more like this. While I loved Elektra, her and The Hand took the spot light away from Punisher. I cared way more for Frank's revenge and his arguments with Matt than The Hand's master plan (which was underwhelming in Defenders)
Every dialogue scene between Matt and Frank ar beyond amazing.
Fantastic scene, only thing better to me was Punishers graveyard scene.
What's great about this argument is that neither of them are wrong.
I would definitely side with Punisher on this one. The problem for fighting for Truth and Justice in the world of superhero is that the battle never ends. The hero brings the villain to jail only for the villain to go out and cause chaos once again.
I think Joker from Injustice 1 said it well. "You think you can have a family. That locking me up will magically reform me. And they'll be safe. So big, so dumb."
@@arkhamknight9001 yeah, but the problem is that Punisher's methods can also end up killing innocents or create more criminals who may end up taking the place of the guys he killed. (Like a never ending cycle)
@@anjaneyasreetrout2444 sorry for the late reply just got back home from work.
That is true IF there is anyone from that world that can replace the bad guys. Honestly the no-kill rule is for superheroes who are either naive or just won't see they're error. In a crossover between Marvel and DC when Punisher was about to kill the Joker, Batman arrived and just allows him to run away.
In my opinion the Cons far outweighs the Pros. While people will call anti-heroes psychopaths, murderers, or among other thing. They do what no other heroes could never do. End the War between villains and heroes. Of course that is if anyone who has the guts to step up on the big table and took his/her place. Then good luck.
@@arkhamknight9001 I get your perspective, but if we’re talking about the Punisher specifically, he literally at the end of this very episode, destroys the biker gang’s bikes at the bar across the street, inciting them into charging the apartment complex full of innocents, all just to escape Daredevil who was kicking his ass. And who has to save the day? Daredevil
A sly Cooper fan 👍👍👍
this is how people argue in real life, finally someone put a scene where people cut eachother off , this is realistic
Netflix was such a good place for these characters. The Disney/MCU execs would never allow something this layered
I think this season could’ve been perfection if they took out everything surrounding The Hand and just focused on DD and Punisher along with their moral clash
I liked the Hand, but just should've been in smaller doses
@@thee_morpheus Agreed the Defenders should have taken the Hand storyline completely.
Actually, the entirety of the hand stuff with elektra is pretty much the same thing, specially the flashbacks.
i went back to watch daredevil just for the punisher scenes, literally skipped over everything with the hand i didnt care lol punisher just meshes perfectly in this season
@@holdmyseatbelt1184 i watched daredevil just for the punisher as well
DD: "What happens the day someone decided you deserve it?"
FC: "I'll tell you what, they better not miss."
Fuckin' gangster!
"You hit 'em and they get back up. I hit 'em and they stay down." reminds me of a line Batman says in Batman v Superman, "Criminals are like weeds, Alfred; pull one up, another grows in its place."
If you put one in jail, they'll break out. If you kill one, another one will take its place. Its a never ending battle, so whichever way you choose to do it, you'd still be making the world a safer place.
The way they stutter and talk over each other, this is one of the most realistic arguments I've seen in media.
"You hit 'em and they get back up, I hit 'em, THEY STAY DOWN!!"
That's my favorite line.
“Try again” is my favorite.
amazing dialogue
Yeah. I'm on Punisher on this that's the problem about fighting for Truth and Justice in the superhero world. The battle never ends. It's an unending game of cat and mouse with the hero bringing the villain to prison only for them to get out do the same thing again.
Joker probably said it well in Injustice: God's Among Us. "You think you can have a family. That locking me up will magically reform me. And they'll be safe. So big, so dumb."
@@arkhamknight9001 yeah but you need both kinds of people. The truth is, some people can be redeemed. And that's worth it. But the number of people who are willing to do the redeeming is very small.
Most people don't care about others problems. They don't believe in forgiveness. You screw up once? Your done. You had one chance and you blew it. You're beyond redemption. Most people feel that way.
It takes an incredible amount of character and willpower to be the one who gives others a second chance. The problem with this philosophical debate from a superhero perspective though is that the superheros never actually do anything to help those they fight to actually become better. So the idea of killing the villain makes more sense.
That's why I loved animated justice league. The scene with flash and the "villain" who was off his meds while drinking in the bar was perfect.
Facts too.
We need a punisher in this world
We live in a soft generation
I agree more with Punisher in this case. Daredevil is more a reactive force to protect the innocent while Punisher is proactive in removing the threats.
Daredevil is more reactive in temporarily delaying deaths of the innocent
Ha, funny. Frank reacts most if not all the time, he doesn't seek people before they do something. They got Franks attention after they've done something. Frank is a murderer and that's about it.
This argument has to be ONE OF the overall best dialogues in recent TV history. Excellently written, realistically delivered by DD and Punisher, containing the perfect "push and pull", tension and release.....
Pure freaking gold.
I like how you call them DD and Punisher rather than Charlie and Jon
This is how Batman V Superman should've been.
@@goodjoejoe this is how Batman and Red Hood was
For me i think they're both right. The problem is that they're both too absolute. Frank thinks all criminals deserve death. But some can have redemption. While matt says that they can be redeemed some people don't really deserve to breath. They're points both have flaws,which is why they are both right yet wrong at the same time
Well not all criminals just the truly horrible ones. He doesn’t kill thieves or smugglers unless of course they do drugs dude.
@Aaron Neville Jessica Jones has no morality but whatever she personally feels. She treats some criminals like scimbags and others like victims, based purely on how much she identifies with them.
Aaron Neville bruh why you so toxic
In my opinion if comic books were real then daredevils way is more easier but this is reality and in reality u gotta make the hard choice that punisher makes
@Aaron Neville you are waaay too sensitive ugly man calm thy virginity
Just came here after daredevil had segs with she-hulk. Now I'm convinced that netflix's marvel is in a separate universe
This is one of my favorite scenes in all of media. It made me watch this show after seeing this video and I'm loving it.
Let’s just remember in this same universe baby groot is dancing to mr blue sky
And I love it even more for that reason.
ANYTHING can happen in the Marvel universe.
Lol
The MCU baby
@@darrenwalsh5030 Exactly.That's the way it's always been in the comics,too. You can have The Punisher and Groot,Howard The Duck and Squirrel Girl and so on and so forth all exist in the same universe.
I love that about comics,that you can have all of these different kinds of characters all co-exist in the same universe.
@@JR-ju3kj just like real life! All the genres and different kinds of people rolled into one.
I love how real this scene feels.
And it involves a dude dressed in a devil costume.
People can be dressed like that making real arguments. What I'm surprised is how a blind man can be a tough vigilante.
“You’re unhinged Frank. You’re insane” says the guy wearing a red devil outfit.
That has nothing to do with their argument you are just hating daredevil
