happy [early] valentine’s day, everyone! ♥️

Matt's little :] to hide the barely contained violence and rage and grief that's vibrating under his skin at a frequency that would register on a richter scale is everything to me actually

DDBA SPOILERS!!! (episodes 1-2)

okay i have thoughts and none of them are in order and some aren’t very developed, but here they are so far:

-to start off positive, i like how matt’s blindness is being portrayed, maybe more than in the original. it shows how he is in fact visually impaired and that when he focuses on other things specifically he is affected by his blindness. (for example: episode 2 when he’s focusing on footsteps and almost gets hit by a cab)

-right off the bat, i knew we weren’t gonna get what we had in the original series. the opening shots and dialogue were too bright and clinical in my opinion, as is pretty common with disney.

-while the actors did an amazing job imo, the way it’s being filmed just lacks the grit and depth of the original series.

-that being said; matt crying on the roof did have me crying too, charlie cox is such an incredibly talented actor and even despite the flaws that opening scene had, he managed to pull me in and get me to care.

-there are moments and choices being made that i do like, and i’m sure i’ll enjoy the show even with the disappointing parts

-matt being framed in red light at the end of the first episode and the fight at the end of episode two that resulted with his daredevil yell were the most dynamic and classically daredevil moments and they give me hope

-also i was almost unable to pay attention to a single second of it because of how absolutely soulcrushingly and devastatingly attractive matt murdock is. it’s actually ridiculous.

*TLDR: i found the first two episodes of born again to be a bit disappointing and not living up to the standards that we have come to know and love from daredevil. that being said; through the amazing acting from charlie cox and the maintaining of matt murdock’s character, as well as some promising new characters and arcs, i’m sure it still will be an enjoyable watch.

UPDATE:

my mom just asked me if foggy and matt are lovers

she’s so correct

matt murdock coded

Gotta collect them all before March 4th!

Me playing bingo while watching Born Again:

Guys! @ me if you make/find more bingo cards and I will add 'em 😈

the sound of the coqui and the waves at the end was such a perfect touch. absolutely heartbreaking.

@oh-tobeafrog thank you for inspiring me with this galaxy brain take on my two favorite marvel heroes :)
