“Marvel’s Iron Fist” drew some of the most scathing reviews that any Netflix series has earned. But the critical dog pile apparently did little to dampen enthusiasm for the show.
The superhero drama’s March 17 premiere was the most binge-watched this year for a Netflix drama, according to data from research firm 7Park Data, which measures number of streams on subscription video services. The company found that 54.7% of “Iron Fist” streams on the premiere date were of episodes three or higher. The average hour-long show on Netflix has a binge score of 46.9%.
>“Iron Fist” also accounted for 14.6% of all Netflix streams on March 17 — the highest percentage of any series premiere that 7Park measured, topping “Stranger Things” (4.0%), “Marvel’s Luke Cage” (12.8%), “Marvel’s Daredevil” Season 2 (13.8%), and “Orange is the New Black” Season 4.
You mean to tell me people are more concerned with entertaining themselves over caring about stupid social politics? Who would have thunk it?
Juan Rogers
Except the show is bad. The fact this is in the same universe as DD and JJ is embarrassing
Hunter Gutierrez
people always cry about SJW boogeymen but have they honestly ever affected anything significantly?
Caleb Scott
My best friend, tony ram is in jail because of them.

Pretty soon they'll just start censoring things based on critical reception
Elijah Smith
because Matt's character in Daredevil always wears a mask
In IF season 2 hopefully the stunt man will be in a mask and you won't need all the annoying cuts to hide his face
Robert Myers
when you try to get the main actor to make people believe he trained in martial arts intensely for 20 years when in fact he had a basic crash course of 2 weeks of training... it shows. what a silly thing.
Joshua Brooks
but i don't wanna provide evidence to a yuropean shithead. smile and blow me fucker.

I still don't know what the SJWs are even complaining about with this show. Can someone break it down for me?
Christopher Davis

How do they even know?
Unless Netflix started to release their numbers?

So they're mad a white person is a star in the show at all?

James Rivera
white guy appropriating asian culture
David Williams
they will even get more mad when the Punisher tops those numbers
Connor Sanchez
I disliked it, and that has nothing to do with the politics.
Finn was simply miscast. He's full of teen wangst and I cannot take him seriously.
Nicholas Young
>a white person A WHITE MALE
Leo Stewart
this. Iron Fist was enjoyable. Way more than Jessica Jones and Luke Cage at least.
Jeremiah Taylor
There's too many white people in it. Fewer white people is always batter.
Niggers keep appropriating Western culture by using things like electricity and wheels but they never take the time to fucking thank us for it.
Josiah Ross
Go get hit by a truck abdul
Anthony Wilson
The SJWs are actively destroying our value based society with their feminist propaganda. For real SJWs are more of an existential threat to the US than for example nazis were.
Oliver Ortiz

Wheels are not even 'western culture' you stupid stormnigger, not that you had anything to do with either anyway

White savior is about context.

Exactly. Now we can expect more low effort dogshit from Scott Buck.

it's still pretty bad. fuck sjws but these shows are mostly made for them anyway. They are just eating their own cuz white male
Isaac Thompson

yawn
Jose Hill
EVERYTHING ON NETFLIX IS PURE PLEB GARBAGE
Julian Adams
I'm Asian and I don't give a shit, but people obnoxious enough to pretend to be offended on my behalf seem to think that I'd be upset by a white guy going to a monastary and learning kung fu. They call it 'appropriation'. Motherfuckers, why would I be upset about exporting my culture to the west? Last I checked there are metric fucktons of monasteries in Asia, set up specifically to teach Buddhism to white people. Do you honestly think we would do this if westerners adopting asian culture somehow upset us?
The other angle is that the perspective is eurocentric, and treats 'the orient' as some kind of exotic mysterious otherworld like what was common in movies and books 50-100 years ago (The Shadow, Fu Manchu, etc) but isn't accurate.
But dude -- that's in the goddamn source material. It's literally a comic book version of a 70's kung fu movie. All of this aside, and reiterating that I don't give a shit about the identity politics crap, Iron Fist was still the first bad Marvel/Netflix series.
Finn whatshisface is either a bad actor, or really badly miscast. I can't take him seriously as a warrior, his angst just annoys me, and if he was really a fucking monk he would have shaved his goddamn head. Instead he has this ridiculous surfer-curls things with fucking highlights.
The plot is convoluted to the point that I simply stopped caring in the later episodes, and there is some very inconsistent characterization.
Thematically, I can see they had some big ideas, and I actually liked their approach to the social stigma surround mental health -- a lot of the characters have some sort of disorder or trauma or addiction, and a big driver factor in various disasters is how they're treated by their friends and family and society at large -- but as good as that material is, it just gets buried under the shit that is the dull plot and terrible lead actor. The fight choreography is also garbage compared to Daredevil.
Caleb Hughes
was iron fist sjw or not?
i don't know if i like it please respond

This was a good read. I agree

I bet you think ancient Egyptians were black too.
Daniel Collins
>posting on Sup Forums as a nigger Ooga booga to you too, bluegum. No one cares about your pseudointellectual bullshit. Average black IQ is 85 HAHAHAHAHHAHA
Isaac Hall
Mesopotamia is in Iraq, it wasn't created by white people. Just because I don't think they're white, doesn't mean they're black either you dumbass
Colton Richardson
WE
Jeremiah Reyes
this t.b.h.f.a.m
Owen Myers
It's actually only 85 in America, and that's because of white admixture.
Pure coons come in closer to 75 average.
Never forget, goy, Africa is shit because of white colonialism. It's nothing to do with the fact that their populations are borderline mentally retarded.
Carter Roberts
>The superhero drama’s March 17 premiere was the most binge-watched this year for a Netflix drama Woooow it was only March. Literally a nothing statement.
Evan Ramirez
>They were white! >Nuh uh, they were black! >They were brown!
You know who *actually* lived in Mesopotamia?? Mesopotamians.
And I'm fairly certain that identity was more important to them than whatever current century racial theory you or I subscribe to.
Levi Richardson
How fucking dense are you people? You notice what death note, iron fist and ghostbusters all have in common? They're shit. These controversies are just damage control generated by the studios to generate buzz.
SJWs aren't a cohesive group capable of uniting. Stop being a marketers play thing
Anthony Garcia
Reviews aside, it could have been much better. The fight scenes were nowhere near as good as DD and the protag looked out of place.
Grayson Long
>Dear White People promos >FUCK NETFLIX KEKS >Iron Fist promos >LOL based NETFLIX XD
Grayson Young
The context of the show is that Danny leaves his post as protector of Kun Lun, failing all the people he was sworn to protect. so he's actually the opposite of a white savior. He's the biggest fuck-up they ever had in the history of training Iron Fist successors.
Sebastian Reed
They're killing my videogames.
Austin Morris
No, that's "Orange is the new black"
Blake Parker
First half of Luke Cage is way better than this, but you could argue the back half detracts enough from it to make them about even.

What a surprise.

Its time to realise that White Man+Non-white Woman= success

Kek are white faggots literally defending a shitty show because it has a white guy, how tf is this different than what the niggers do? Fucking skinny white lanklets are ruining this board.
Andrew Davis
>according to data from research firm 7Park Data, which measures number of streams on subscription video services.
Exactly how do they do that, since Netflix do not provide that information or any official way to monitor it?
Ian Roberts
It's enjoyable like sucking a black dick is enjoyable. In other words it tastes like shit and makes you want to die.
Jace King
Never underestimate how retarded the average person. They're using the same strat that got trump elected to get people to watch their bullshit
Caleb Gutierrez
What's with the fucking granma hair, though. The kid's fine, he's going places, but that perm looks fucking ridiculous.
Adrian Young

Luke Garcia
>What's with the fucking granma hair Its pretty strange Also i think he was the weakest part of the show, he wasnt terrible, but almost every other actor from the main cast were more interesting
Brayden Carter
>iron fist was entertaining What the fuck is with the reddit rejects ITT
Ask yourself if there wasn't a fake controversy around IF if you'd still be saying its good
Isaiah Diaz
It's not a shit show though. That's the whole point you retard. You are the one who has to pretend that everyone is as obsessed about politics as you are and can't enjoy something on its own merit.
Daniel Bell
Nice trips, and I would. I would have dropped it midway otherwise. Bar the jump cuts the fight scenes got better and the characters other than Danny were pretty good, especially the Mechaums and their corporate dickfuckery. Shit, they should make a show about them instead.
Gabriel Johnson
>Ask yourself if there wasn't a fake controversy around IF if you'd still be saying its good
Of course I would, I couldn't give less of a shit about the "controversy". I've watched all the Marvel Netflix shows so far and was even moderately entertained by JJ and Luke Cage. Iron Fist is objectively better than both of them.
Michael Turner
was it rape or you fell for the cuck meme and gave it a try?
Carson Moore
Can't argue with success.
Logan Sanders
1) im not an sjw nor do i care about "white savior" crap, but I do believe the main character was miscast. I found my self saying the show would be more believable if the iron fist was at least somewhat asian looking, or if he looked like Davos or something.
2) And the fight scenes weren't that exciting, but it did have its own charm because they were more realistic. Like not of this Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon type flying across the screen shit - just realistic hand to hand combat. So that aspect is personal preference. Personally I would have liked him to use the Iron Fist more often. We only see it a handful of times, but the combat scenes were OK imo. That being said, it would have been better if the main character looked like he had more training. They shouldve got some Asian looking dude w/ martial arts experience to play that role
3). I thought the show got better towards the end when Davos came into the picture and the whole duality of both worlds thing. Davos was like "you had 1 job: to protect Kun Lun and you abandoned us." But Iron Fist was like "Yeah but NYC is way cooler bro and I get pussy in this world."
Liam Gutierrez
>pretending to be a shitskin
Thomas Sanchez
Something that these shows have been doing right and the MCU lacks are strong antagonists. Wilson Fisk, the purple man, Cottonmouth, the punisher, that chinese grandma and the mechaums were all pretty good.
Christopher Brooks
>I found my self saying the show would be more believable if the iron fist was at least somewhat asian looking, or if he looked like Davos or something. That's because you're not familiar with the character at all. So you're arguing from ignorance. He should have worked out and trained more for the part, though, he looks pudgy. And gotten rid of the fuckdumb perm.
Daniel Myers
like I said reddit rejects
Jeremiah Peterson
danny rand isn't asian he's white
Logan Anderson
Trips of truth IF watching redditards fuck off
Logan Davis
>the main character was miscast True Finn Jones doesnt really give off the "main-character" vibe >I found my self saying the show would be more believable if the iron fist was at least somewhat asian looking Why? The character is white Part of his character is that he is an outsider, and that he is still choosen to be the Iron Fist >it would have been better if the main character looked like he had more training I agree, he could be atleast alittle more lean >and I get pussy in this world He threw away his chance of becomming a wizard
