s01e03 — The Hollow of His Hand

Is she out?

Admins, correct the release dates of the episodes already. You're done a day early)

A purely judicial episode, pretty good.

So gracefully, this Nick was taken to court, and he eventually escaped, although maybe he was run over by a guy with whom he came in a taxi.
It was predictable that the Tiger would be killed after being freed, but I can't believe that the Punisher himself is being imitated along the way or just hiding behind his name.

An interesting parallel was drawn between the White Tiger and DD in court.
Yeah, Matt said not to wear a suit anymore, in fact they'll be an easy target.
And in the end, love is not the punisher, but the police. You can't expose yourself to her, but you can throw everything at the punisher.
I thought this was a case for Matt, and when the muse appeared, he would force me to wear a DD costume, but it would be something else.another motivation.

It's a good episode in which Matt Murdork opposes himself to the White Tiger, as if defending his alter ego, Daredevil.

I feel sorry for the Tiger in the end, but I didn't expect such a turn.

We are waiting for the next episode - there should be a lot of action.

@Variety · Mar 10
“Daredevil: Born Again” enjoyed a strong launch on Disney+ with 7.5 million views in its first five days of availability.

Disney+ теряет аудиторию...

И есть статистика с прошлого года:
- Ahsoka - за 5 дней - 14млн
- Percy Jackson - за 6 дней - 13.3млн
- The Acolyte - за 5 дней - 11.1млн
- Agatha All Along - за 7 дней - 9.3млн

Instead of the music on the credits at the end, there is the whistling of frogs, the very ones that the accused tells about at the beginning of the episode. As if everything was going to end this way.…

This will be the break of everything when the real Punisher shows up and inserts pistons to imitators.

I wouldn't want the killer of a superhero to be not an Alarmist, but some kind of noname imitator, to be honest.

The series came in because this arc in the comics came in. After all, 100 percent is not a punisher, probably one of the cops who imitate him.

I wonder if this was the story that was originally filmed for six episodes, and then the showrunners changed?

It's kind of sad at the end, although I didn't think Tiger would have a good ending. And a killer with a skull on his chest is hardly a Punisher, Frank wouldn't stoop to that, so these are clearly the cops. Now that the lawyer series is over, when will we see Daredevil?

I still remember the moment when Matt walks into an empty courtroom and sits on a bench, examining a piece of his horn. In the original, he would have come to church. In general, this Catholic priest, the wise elder from the cave, is missing, he would have set Matt's mind straight.
The lecture that the White Tiger gave him after Matt burned down his identity was, in my opinion, very gentle: just remember how reverently and overly protective he was of his second identity in the original. That is, burning down an office without consulting anyone, without a person's permission, is very unethical. And it's clear that Matt isn't protecting the Tiger, it's personal for him. But it should have been all the more clear to him that it would have been so careless to reveal - to endanger the Tiger's loved ones, he would not have had the right to do so.
I don't want to blame Disney for all the deadly sins, but they omitted this subtle trait of Matt's character, I don't think he would have done that in the original show.

Actually, rip tiger!

The paradox of cities:
Even if it's Ragnarok, you still have to go to work in the morning,
Life, having gained momentum, causes bloody vomiting.
Tanks, infantry, bunkers...
there's a crowd of frostbitten people around the corner,
a white tiger will tear the boat to shreds,
So don't mess with your head"

A little sad. It's clear what the parallels are, but still. They built a tiger build-up, stories about the amulet, don't wear a costume - as a result, the man put on and immediately stupidly died out of the blue. They didn't even show him in action. The plot of Fisk and Vanessa is completely separate from everything else. It catches my eye that we're watching clips of footage and still footage from an old show that was canceled.

Well, yes.... You just think that Fisk is correcting himself, but he turns out to be a hypocritical piece of shit. I also didn't do it under pressure, but just on a whim. It's so corny.
And the punisher was brought in with the most direct moral compass, which should not be used here.

Overall, the series seemed to be quite good, but this chaoticness in the script is very noticeable from the mixture of materials from the old and new teams + the predictability of the plot.

I liked the trial itself - it was interesting to watch Matt as a lawyer again, especially in a case so close to him with many parallels. But I personally didn't have enough time to reveal the character of the White Tiger to empathize with him properly - I wanted to learn more about him, about his powers and amulet, to see his alter ego in action at least. And then they didn't have time to get attached, and he was already killed (which was very expected; like that, his killer was clearly not Frank Castle).

Well, we are waiting for the return of the Devil of Hell's Kitchen - apparently, this will be the main trigger for Matt.

Hopefully, in the next episode, when it turns out that the white tiger is dead, Matt will find out that the punisher is somehow connected with all this and will go figure it out. I just can't wait for Castle to show up. I'm just as sad for the white tiger, they just showed up, told his tearful story, showed him what a good man he is, even though he knew that his death would be necessary, but still it's a shame for him.

Head off the ending...

What do we have here, Morales? When's Miles going out?"

I don't really understand why it was necessary to mention the amulet in court. Would he have told you about kryptonite if he was defending Superman? In general, it didn't affect anything, of course, but it was still kind of stupid.

It was a great episode, I liked the trial, but the ending of the story was predictable. The moments when Matt holds a piece of helmet are also cool, I think he will only wear the costume after a couple of episodes.

We could have shown more scenes with the White Tiger, but I think they did the right thing by focusing on Hector himself. The parallel with Matt was well shown, and although he warned Hector, he still put on the costume (it's who I am). The actor did a great job, although only a couple of episodes with him, but it turned out to be an interesting character. As I understand it, this is his last role, it's good that the plot with him was not deleted after the reshoots. rip.

There's also a plus sign for the sounds of frogs in the credits.

So, it seems the time has come to start reading comics! Gentlemen, who knows how to read correctly? What is the order, which authors? I've never read comics at all, I don't even know where to start. I ask for your advice!

Well, here, as with the scene from episode 1 with Foggy and Karen, there is clearly a re-shoot with Ayala's murder
Only here the reason was precisely the fact that the actor died, and he was so charismatic, the second punisher, but calmer.
Most likely, then one of his relatives will wear a suit.
Female character

It was funny how Matt defended him, as if he was partly justifying himself for himself, and he was presenting his beliefs about the correctness of his actions through Hector. But the end is strange in the sense that Hector couldn't not wear a suit for one day? I could have sat quietly for a while.

It's a very good episode, although the ending is a bit predictable. The scene with Matt coming into an empty courtroom is very beautiful, and the mention of Foggy is heartwarming.

People who use their incredible senses to determine which scenes were shot before and which are currently filming are very funny. I've been closely following the filming information before and after the creative reboot, and this is one of the episodes that has remained virtually unchanged. Because back in 2023, there were leaks about Foggy's death, the Fisk family consultations with a psychologist, the trial of the White Tiger, and corrupt cops who use the Punisher symbol.

Are we waiting for Bernthal's return in the next episode?

I am very glad that so much time is devoted to court sessions in the Disney version. That's what I really missed in the Netflix series. So I like the sequel much more than the last 3 seasons.

a great series. Several times I really wanted to rewind and find out how the tense moment would end, because it was very nervous. well, this tiger is certainly not particularly smart, well, at least make yourself a new costume and go on vigilante, what are you doing in your old one that everyone knows now?? I feel very sorry for his wife and their unfulfilled dreams(

by the way, the joke is, the guy who was the prosecuting attorney seemed very familiar, and he played a completely different character in Jessica Jones))

Swear to God THAT'S NOT THE PUNISHER

As much as Frank won't like it, I can't wait.

I have a weakness for court histories. They really liked the series.

It is a pity, of course, that the white tiger was not enough. Interestingly, this is because he didn't have time to finish all the filming, or they just wanted to finish his story. I was hoping to show it in action, but apparently we won't see it. Only if his daughter doesn't continue his business.

While I read all the comments, I realized that people are more concerned about the comparison with the Netflix version than the series itself.

It's a great episode, intense and without much action. But here's the finale... Damn, it's a pity chela (

And now think about it, or is it a setup from Fisk)

Somehow it would have been better if the Tiger's case had been given to the avocados, and at the end of this episode both he and Foggy would have been killed, and this combination of injustice would have served as an impetus for Matt to return to the vigilante ranks.
So far, it's going briskly, but predictably, and somehow, compared to Netflix, it's a little shallow or something.

They couldn't help but end on a depressing note, of course. Now the amulet will go to Ave Ayala like in the comics?

Are you sure I'm watching the new Daredevil and not "Better call Murdock"? It seems that the series was reshot, a showrunner was hired, but there are almost no changes from what was filmed before. The show is called "Daredevil," but there's no Daredevil in it, that's cool. 👍

It was 100% Frank Castle.
Knowing Netflix is a common lure that has already been in the comics a dozen times.
Fisk hired another villain who simply put on such a T-shirt, lit up on cameras and killed a White Tiger to blame the Punisher for everything and push through a law banning masked avengers.

But the way a White Tiger walked down the street in a suit is just some kind of Spanish shame...
he doesn't have super hearing, super speed, or impenetrable skin.
Gangs in Hell's Kitchen don't go around without a gun in their belt.
And how did two policemen on the subway end up without a service record?

I came across this information in one of the public sites.

"Many people naturally began to have questions, they say, but what, in fact, has changed in comparison with the old version of "Born Again". So I've put together a short list for you, both based on insiders and official information. That's the most basic thing, without taking into account any minor additional scenes.

• The pilot is entirely the work of a new creative team, whose goal was to create the necessary context for the already filmed material. The eighth and ninth episodes are also completely new, as they involve Karen Page, The Marked One, and the Punisher.

• Any episode that grows out of this context, such as a scene in an empty courtroom, is a reshoot.

• Inserts with BiBi Urich's reports and panoramic shots of New York were the idea of the new authors, with the desire to create a kind of separate character from New York with its own unique face.

• All episodes with Vanessa are either new or re—shot with the same script. Before the strike, another actress played her role, but with the resumption of filming, Ayelet Zurer returned.

• The finale of the second and third series is a reshoot. We can also say that almost all the action with the Muse, and therefore most of the plot with him in the next series, is reshoots, since there are already photos behind the scenes of the series on the network and in the same location where the fight with the Muse will be, you can see the stunt director Philip Silver, who came only after the creative reboots.

• The Punisher line has been expanded and expanded. In the old version, he was essentially a cameo or an episode, but with the reshoots, the central theme was his symbolism, which is used by corrupt cops, and his appearances are not limited to one or two episodes, as the Punisher returns in the finale.

• The new creative team introduced a violent scene in the series closer to the finale, which they feared the studio bosses would not let into the final cut. According to some reviewers, having already watched the entire season is something on the level of "Terrifying" brutality."

The series is excellent at the expense of the court . The ending is predictable.

But I don't think it's a punisher, otherwise it's stupid.

Well, pleased, pleased)
I watched 3 episodes at once, that's why I'm writing just now.
Yes, there is definitely a difference in the approach to the series, but nevertheless, this is something good against the background of what Marvel has had recently. Therefore, yes, personally, I am glad to see the return of one of the most suitable superhero series.
In general, the plot is, of course, crumpled: everything is developing too rapidly, there are a lot of questions about Fisk's behavior (I still have the impression that he is some kind of plasticine and inanimate - in the old series he was the most alive of all the living...heh), Foggy was leaked a little early (but, again, I've already seen the theory about 468, so who knows), etc.
However, there are also enough positive aspects here.
There was information that the Punisher would be shown, and then, lo and behold, his branch would somehow be expanded... Well, these are dreams, of course.
I'm really looking forward to further developments.
I hope Marvel doesn't shit themselves this time. It would be a pity to lose such a title.

The most amazing thing is that the cop stayed alive after Matt hit his head on the floor.

It's not strange that the prosecution didn't speak out in court at all, but what was the motive for the attack on the police in general? I was just walking, and I think I'll push this one under the train. 🫠

There is a lack of realism in court. in one episode, the whole case was closed. no tension. I liked the last series so much, because it stretched over episodes, and other plots ran in parallel, and because of this it was clear that this case was not fast, plus it was written perfectly and did not bother. but there's nothing about it at all. and there is no special emotional reaction from the ending, since we did not recognize this character, did not get into it and did not get attached. The 40-minute episode is complete nonsense, and there are 9 more episodes in total in the season. mde. the minor caste, by the way, is non-existent. zero charisma + again, we are not introduced to these characters. they are poorly spelled out (rather not spelled out at all), and because of that they are boring 🙃

The series with the trial turned out to be quite interesting. After killing the white tiger, we are waiting for the return of daredevil in a suit!!!

Yeah, Disney+...
Still, it wasn't worth overstating expectations, I guess I'll wait until all the episodes are released.

I still didn't understand the hardcore masturbation on this attempt to copy the original series.

Except for the fight scene with the Marked Man, there is nothing to watch in the series.
It's just forced shit.
At its core, it still resembles the Hulk Woman, only about Murdoch.

Well, I won't say anything about Foggy's murder and the fact that Fisk was made a whiner.
In general, Disney is such a Disney.

I love procedurals, so this series is really over the top.
But I agree with those who write about the overwhelming feeling of subtle dissonance with the Netflix Matt. There was a tear or something, a multidimensionality, but now there is no depth. I hope I'm wrong, and then they'll give it to us.
