View Full Version : Daredevil movie SPOILERS
I'm starting this one so those of us who have seen the movie, and those of us who don't care about spoilers, can talk without worring about spoiling the movie for those who don't
I thought the movie was very good. I would have liked it better if the movie was longer, but still very good. I really liked the stuff with Bullseye killing people with paperclips, peanuts (that was really cool) and pencils. Really made the point that anything can be a weapon in his hands without being overly foolish. I really liked how they made him sleep in the sensory deprevation tank. I never thought about it before, but he would need something like that to get the quiet he would need to sleep.
Did anyone else pick up on all the nods to people who have worked on Daredevil? Stan Lee is saved by a young matt murdock, the boxer his father fights is John Remeda (sp), Kevin Smith has a cameo. Also Kevin Smiths character is named Jack Kerby (sp). Also the way in which Bullseye kills Elektras father is the same way that Bullseye kills Kimbery Page in Kevin Smiths Daredevil run.
Last, at the end we find out that Elektra is still alive, anyone think we might get the Hand in the next one? Maybe have her return after training with the hand with some of the ninjas with her? Now I'm not the biggest Daredevil fan, but can someone who is give me a brief overview of the storyline where Kingpin almost destoried Matt's whole life, I think thats what the next Daredevil move is going to be based on.

i am very big on following studio news and if daredevil makes about 100 mil there will be not only a sequal but also an elektra side story to explain that jazz
I do know they want to make an Elektra movie (or 2 or 3) but its not writen yet. It make take place before the first Daredevil movie, not between them.

You sure that Elektra is still alive right now? I figured that she put it there before she was killed. (Yes, I know that she does come back eventually, but I didn't think it happened so soon.)

ummm how come you people keep missing the point? SHE IS ALIVE AT THE END OF THE FILM. Jennifer Garner has signed onto to 2 sequels to the Daredevil franchise (not including her rumored spinoff film) and there is more proof to her continued existence. Also, for further proof read the novelization of the movie....she is very much alive at the end of the movie.

Yeah the good luck charm DD found was in braille - elektra's wasn't - she's alive.
Did anyone notice that one of the guys Bullseye killed was Frank Miller???? The best Writer/artist on the DD comic line!

Needless to say this talks about the Daredevil movie, thus people have seen it so last warning just in case your still foolish enough to have not seen the movie yet and care about spoilers!

The Rabbidgerbal was really impressed. At first The Frothing One wanted the guy who did Mr. Furious from mystery men and zoolander to do Daredevil but this actor that did the film seemed to be a big fan and did it great!
Wonderful into from the start... the braile to names... nice touch!
the night scenes should have been tinted red to show night better, while still making it clear it was night and letting us human beings still enjoy the detials. But that was minor. the effects like his sonar were very cool. the rain on electra's face WOW!
Speaking of Electra. IS SHE REALLY DEAD?! No she can't be dead. people think she's dead... but where did that brail good luck charm come from!!!! No that's got to be a teaser for the next movie (is there a next one? Gee the Rabbidgerbal hopes so)
Critics were saying this isn't no spiderman? What's up with that?! maybe it's darker... more along the lines of the first Batman movie but it was good! Is it less popular because DareDevil is less known to the average population???
The scene where Electra though Daredevil killed her father was great. moreover that bullseye dude was truely bad to the bone.
It would have been cooler to see Kingpin put up more of a fight though. He did seem to take a backseat to bullseye.
WHAT SAY YOU FELLOW MOVIE SEERS????

I left when the credits started to roll, but I heard that there was a scene after the end of the credits.
Did anyone stay to see it? What happened?
Bullseye was shown to be alive in a full body cast, getting annoyed by a fly in his room. He picks up a syringe with his fingers, and you see the guards outside of the room while the fly suddenly stops making noise (you hear an arrow like sound effect)
Also, the gangster that Jack Murdock works for mentions that Mack, Miller, and Bendis work for him too.
jus 2 points I want to make:
1. Did Elektra go temporarily blind during the fight which ended in her fathers passing??
2. If she was dead at the end, then why did he turn his head to the side, and smile as if someone was there?
Neither Elektra or Bullseye is dead, though I could see using them in different sequels (personally I think the next one will be about Kingpin destorying Matt Murdocks life).
"1. Did Elektra go temporarily blind during the fight which ended in her fathers passing??" - Why would you think she went blind?
well...lets see shall we...
daredevil and bullseye face off,
bullseye trys to kill her father,
daredevil trys to prevent this by stopping the object in question.
Yet STILL, in the oldest cliché in the book, she blames the hero for his death
