charlie cox has the worlds kindest eyes and sweetest smile. someone needs to sedate me
i live in quebec, all of my advertisements on disney+ are in french. I’m usually alright with the dubs, even if they’re a bit inaccurate to the original actors voices.
recently i’ve been getting ads for The Amateur (L’Amatuer) and seeing Jon Bernthal and hearing him dubbed in french is the funniest shit i’ve ever heard
idk what it is about him that makes it feel so wrong, but French Bernthal now lives rent free in my head
making my mom watch daredevil with me, and during the second episode she goes;
“i feel like everyone could be a love interest, he seems like he really gets around”.
she doesn’t know anything about dd but she clocked matt’s whoreishness IMMEDIATELY.
Daredevil character of all time honestly. Blind orphan, son of a boxer and a nun, raised in a church, superpowers, martial arts expert, catholic lawer, vigilante devil, breaks bones all night and confesses his sins in the morning, heart of gold, ass of hole. Manwhore. Firing on every cylinder, what a fucking guy.
this is also so matt murdock coded
"You're losing blood" no I know exactly where it is. The floor. Don't ever underestimate me.

-i was looking forward to the bb and gallo team up but now that’s never gonna happen LMAO
consumed so much daredevil content in the past week that i gave myself eye strain and now can barely see ! oh the irony lmao
something something icarus, something something the sun
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.
