Disney+, Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, New Writers— A list of bare minimums that should be in the new Daredevil show:

1. Proper representation of Matt's disability

Hammer home the idea that Matt IS blind. Don't leave any room for ambiguity regarding his blindness. Show him using visual impairment assistive technology. And good detailed touches like the Braille labels on clothes like seen on the Netflix show.

2. Maintain the good fight choreography

I'd say adopt the iconic hallway fight sequence tradition from the Netflix show but idk if you all can actually pull it off (lol). But at least put as much effort like the Netflix crew did on the action scenes. And bring back Charlie's trusty stunt double, Chris Brewster.

3. Do not be skimpy on portraying Matt's Catholicism and religiosity

One of the best parts of the Netflix show was Matt and Father Lantom (RIP 😢)'s introspective talks about God and faith. We better still see Matt on confessional booths every other episode and not just have his religion mentioned or alluded to in passing.

4. Don't butcher Matt's character and personality

These new writers better maintain the complexity of Matt's psyche. And do justice to both his lawyer and vigilante side. Definitely not hold back on his patent good guy assholeness, and most importantly to not forget his whoreness. This man better be written as a slut or else!

5. ALWAYS BE HORNY

Probably the most important part to y'all horny AF people on here including me. But yeah, these new writers/directors better be as down bad as the ones over on Netflix that managed to write in as much shirtless scenes as they can that at one point Charlie had to strike down some of them lol 💀

Y'all will actually have a point over the Netflix show if you let Charlie keep his chest hair, but I think that's expecting too much 🤷
