that “FUCK you” came from the foggy shaped hole in his heart
Matt Murdock strolling into a bank robbery whistling cheerfully, acting confused about what's happening, and then accusing the robbers of ableism when they try to release him is everything I've ever wanted. No more dark and edgy shit I just want twenty more episodes of this

how can you make it Tender?
how can you make it Homoerotic?
how can you make it Implicitly intimate?
how can you make it Noticeably a metaphor for sex?
how can you make it Kind of gay?

one thing that bothers me about daredevil is how insistent the narrative is that dd is so similar to the bad guys he’s trying to stop. everyone is always saying how he just does this as an excuse to beat people up but i’ve never seen it that way?
imo there’s a pretty big difference between what he does and the people who are actively participating in human trafficking and murder and all that.
i get that he is angry and it is cathartic for him to be daredevil, but he literally has been hearing all the crime and violence happening around him for years, i’d be angry too.
this isn’t quite as well articulated as i’d like, and maybe i’ll revisit it when i’m more awake, but i want to know if i’m missing something?
Matt Murdock to himself, at literally any given moment in DDBA:

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.
every episode has me even more impressed by and grateful for this man. he really is The Matt Murdock. he carries so hard.
This is facts and I really need some respect placed on Charlie's name, he is the lifeblood of this franksteined season and is doing a lot of the work to make it compelling and worthwhile to watch.
And his range! In the last episode alone, his comedic timing on his response to the Skrull line, his charm when he was negotiating with the prosecutor, and then his heart-wrenching delivery during his conversation about Foggy.
His performance as Matt this season is like his excellence in the Netflix show but on steroids since he needs to do a lot more carrying for a show with a troubled production. I can write a whole 100000 word essay on the nuances of his acting in these 4 episodes so far. He's so good.
Like what this tweet says. He's making a lot of silly-sounding dialogue seem so earnest and believable, that's talent.
Just a Charlie Cox acting appreciation post because man he deserves one
