My Favorite Thing Is That "Human Disater Matt Murdock" Is A Super Common Tag On Both Tumblr And Ao3.org

charlie cox is so unbelievably good as matt murdock. no matter my thoughts or feelings about anything else to do with born again, this will always remain the ultimate truth and i will always come back for him.

absolutely obsessed with the dynamic between Matt and Frank it's gotta be one of my favorite character dynamics of all time. Frank kills people as a hobby and Matt has never killed in his life. they can't have a conversation without cursing each other out. they trust each other enough to hold one another as they jump off a building. they physically fight more often than not. Frank has seen Matt's bare ass. they're both in love with the same woman who respects herself too much to hook up with either one of them. Matt is a Catholic who believes every soul can be saved except for his own and Frank doesn't think either of theirs needs to be. can anybody hear me is this thing on

DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN 1.02: Optics

i continue to be extremely impressed by the way daredevil: born again handles the arc involving police corruption. first it was the cops with the punisher tattoos and frank’s obvious and explicit dislike of them, and now the whole thing with fisk’s anti-vigilante task force? explicitly including commentary on how special privileges for this task force include not having to use body cameras, when this is something that comes up in police corruption IRL, is so… it’s so important. it’s a conversation that needs to be had and by god they’re having it.

this show is literally telling us how this kind of behavior is evil. it’s being the opposite of subtle. it doesn’t cut corners. it’s so rare to get a big-budget production from a company like disney that actually says things of value, and for it to be something as current and polarizing and important as the corruption in the police force? i’m shocked. pleasantly so, but shocked nonetheless.

not to mention the way there’s actually heavy-handed critiques of the justice system itself. the arcs with hector ayala and leroy mancini serve to emphasize the privilege people like matt have in a system that’s designed to disadvantage people. matt might be the hero in the story but he’s not innocent in upholding the shitty laws and regulations that are put in place to keep other people down.

it’s such a clear portrayal of the corruption that permeates every level of the justice system from the ground up and society as a whole and the fact that it’s a fucking disney+ show??? i’m kind of in awe.

he was his other half!!!!! they were nelson and murdock!!!! brb sobbing.

The way he didn’t call Foggy his friend or his brother or whatever… he called him his partner… because that’s exactly who he is and was.

My mattfoggy heart is crying screaming throwing up

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?

i need more of matt murdock knowing touch that isn’t painful

I love pat the kittens

tell me why my delusional ass kept expecting to see foggy in one of those cages

matt murdock? dare i say?

i keep looking at the new gifs of matt during born again and i can’t believe this slick son of a bitch got hotter and sexier.
