the iron fist


hey all,

I started to watch that new netflix tv series that the critics already panned...

LIKE OMG YET ANOTHER TV SERIES OF A WHITE PRIVILEGED MALE ....and he is appropriating someone's elses culture???? ( he's what???!!!!! doing KUNG FU!!!!
( which is ironic and racist to assume that just any asian man doing marital arts is okay..
Kung Fu differs from Karate the same way a Japanese man differs from a Chinese man.. two totally different styles and two totally separate cultures

So anyway I gave "the iron fist " a go last night and actually enjoyed it....it is alot like "daredevil " in it's pacing... it isn't all about him beating people up or using his ninja esque powers. It really is a story about the human condition.

And once again there are no small roles....hell the evil people ( brother and sister team) have almost as many lines as the iron fist does....
There are no big named actors in this production...so don't expect like george clooney or whatever to pop in and say " howdy"
But the costume designers and set locaters remind me of watching " arrow"...you just know they put alot of the budget trying to make the show look a certain way..

I was also really surprised by the performance of the actor playing the evil father....like wow dude whips of his belt and scares the living fuck out of his subby like personal assistant....
That was very surreal and awesome..lol. You don't see that sorta shit on tv

I also applaud the actors in this series...sure it's cool to get pretty people saying cool lines... but for unknown actors these people can sure go through a range of emotions.

I especially liked the evil sister...unlike the evil brother...she has sort of a "coming to jesus meeting" and comes full circle with her emotions regarding the identity of the iron fist. I actually got a feeling that she has some real life interaction with the actor playing the "fist".. it's like she really either likes him or hangs with him in the trailer off set.. there is some genuine emotions there.

and YEAH dudes there is this asian chick on there that is hottt...just saying bro..lol.

and yes she can do alot of crazy martial arts herself..she's pretty bad ass/great role model for girls.

I'm 3 episodes in and feel like this isn't an "arrow" clone...even though the premise is very similar.. rich guy gets stranded on ( insert noun)...comes back alive and now wants to take back his empire...
But one has to consider the source material..a 70s comic book...

And honestly the show is alot better than some 70s comic book.. it's worth a watch
