Are Luke Cage or Iron Fist worth watching?

I enjoyed Daredevil S1. I even enjoyed Daredevil S2, mainly for Punisher really. I really struggled to get through JJ, the writing felt noticeably worse. However I did enjoy Kilgrave and Luke, which is why I'm considering watching his show, but I've heard mostly mediocre-to-bad reviews.

Luke Cage is good if you like DD. Iron Fist is worth watching too but not as good as Luke or DD.

>> No.14880

luke cage is great, but iron fist is cringy as hell

Iron Fist is the weakest of the Defenders series, bar none. Watch with caution; the action can be lackluster and the dialogue can be cringe-inducing

>> No.14882

Luke Cage is really good but kinda fizzles out a bit towards the end.
Iron Fist is a waste of time.

i enjoyed Luke Cage and it wasn't bad.

Iron fist is the weakest one of the bunch but not terrible as some would say.

its adequate.

>> No.14884

>>14878
Luke Cage as a whole is too caught up in its own black hugbox message to treat any other aspects of the show with much care. The series is mostly concerned with the black struggle. Fight choreography is nonexistent. Luke just tosses niggas around like nothing. Just like the fights, Luke himself is also incredibly boring. He really only speaks when he has a soapbox to stand on.

>> No.14885

Yes, they're both decent, just watch out for Clair. Personally, I liked Iron Fist better.

>> No.14886

No, JJ is a good indicator of how none Daredevil Netflix shows go.

Personally, I think Luke Cage is the weakest series.

Luke Cage is fucking awesome, save for the second half. I'll spare you the spoilers, OP.

Iron Fist is like watching paint dry, I wouldn't even bother.

Can we really even call Luke Cage a human/superhero? He is the textbook definition of a no good thug. He escaped from prison. He beats on cops. And he is very very ugly. So so ugly. Like James Brown. Anti cop bullshit shoe horned in at the very end because of trayvonlives matters I guess. Certain Jewish people/producers may have played into that but people are called /pol/ and racis and are banned when they point this shit out. Luke Cage looks like someone I would see on tv if riots happened in LA. I'm liberal and black btw.

No and no, imo. Most /co/ lurkers would be able to write a better show.
Even if you like it, you won't miss anything in term of novelty of interesting stuff.
The best thing is to watch the fights on youtube (and even then it's a bit of waste of time).
Just hope for the defenders, anon.

>> No.14893

Luke Cage is boring as fuck but the villain of the first half is pretty fun
If you like literally the blackest niggest characters that have ever been in a tv show you might enjoy it, but Luke himself is really dull as a character

They're all just 'Luke walks forward and throws a dude every now and again' up until the final poorly choreographed fist fight against Father Chucklefuck

Luke Cage was on its way to being a great show, but fucks it all up halfway through with an attempt to shake things up. Easily the worst Marvel Netflix show thanks to that.

Iron Fist isn't great, but watchable and more consistent.

>> No.14897

if you cant find anything else to watch on netflix, luke cage is worth watching. iron fist, too

if you could tolerate jj for the few parts of it you liked then im sure you can find something to like about lc or if

>> No.14898

Both are worth watching - they're not as good as Daredevil though.

Why do people dislike Iron Fist so much?
No, it's not great, but it's on about the same level as Luke Cage. LC had better atmosphere, while IF was pretty bland. On the other hand, IF had some nice villains, while LC's villains were dull as hell.
People seem to lash out at Iron Fist because it's not as good as Daredevil or Jessica Jones, but it's not *that* bad.

They're okay, Luke Cage gets incredibly stupid in the last 4 or 5 episodes. Iron Fist is like a blander version of Daredevil. It's not terrible but the lead actor kind of ruins everything.

Iron Fist is worth watching to piss off the SJWs.
Also better ratings will help it get renewed quicker which will get to them even more.

Kill me but I can't find a single decent thing about Luke Cage, besides music. It always half-asses.

Cottonmouth? Killed half-way through for his slut sister and Luke's retard brother to take stage.

They never even bothered with explaining Scarfe's motivation. What the fuck was he doing and why. They only explained why he's bitter, then realized they were making him almost kind of likable and haphazardly decided to make him corrupt. Why is he corrupt? H-his family was killed and...?

I thought it was way better than JJ (then again, I struggle to name one thing about that series that I like, so take it with a grain of salt) but not as good as DDs1.
Kind of on par with DDs2. Promising beginning, shits the bed near the end.

Overrated to hell and back although he's much better than any other villain. Only remembered by the virtue of having slightly more charisma than Finn Jones and looking better on screen which isn't even an accomplishment.
