Can you react to SouthPaw?
13:42 "So maybe he's being groomed with love in a way that's her morphing him into a stronger, more stable man to be feared". That is such a good analysis especially with the last few words you said to describe Fisk , "man to be feared". Daredevil is known as "The Man Without Fear". You just unknowingly created a poetic symbolism on the polar opposites between those two characters right there and I can't get that out of my head. This is so good, I love your analysis as a filmmaker to this and I feel like this helps me understand how to act out a scene cause I'd like to make a career as an actor on that so your perspective on these scenes really help me break it down. Keep up the great work!👍🏾
Hey Shaun! First off, happy to hear you’re thinking about getting into the field of filmmaking brother. Second off, thank you for piecing that together! Dissecting this show is always fun and as a filmmaker trying to educate myself while watching these never ceases to helping my filmmaking knowledge! Always wanting to learn! This comment rocks man, thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for the comment, acting is an ambition I'd like to take on, I went to theatre school for a time while currently studying psychology for university so I think that helps in terms of breaking down a character. Also for this season I think personally episode 10 is one of the best, I won't spoil it but it's one of the best because it's one of the most grounded episodes and illustrates so many parallels which can be broken down well from a filmmakers perspective so I'm looking forward to that reaction. Good fortunes 👏🏾
Dude finally someone who truly appreciates what an amazing show daredevil is!!! Greats videos man lovin this series
Glad to hear that Palpatine but your compliments will not make me join the dark side. I see through your tricks! Lol thanks though for real!
@@JamesVSCinema but you can't see through mine mr James
James VS Cinema no you will be my new apprentice.
HOLY SHIT ITS FISK...I need a hero to emerge or something lmaooo
@@JamesVSCinema haha, i don't wanna spoil anything but you won't need that also can't wait til you see season 2 episode 3 and 8 or 9 i think, but yeah you will be surprised, season 3 is the beat one but the first 5 episodes are slow, but still amazing, when you get to episode 6 you'll be blown by a particular entrance/fight scene
When trying to interpret Vanessa's character, I find it helpful to remember that she's an art gallery owner who spends her days reviewing, analyzing, and interpreting works of art. At this point in the show, I don't think she has any particular motivations re: Fisk. Vanessa sees Fisk as an artist (which she says as much in episode 5), and the city as his clay to shape, sculpt, and mold to reflect his vision. So I think Vanessa is simply fascinated by Fisk as she would be any artist, and feels privileged by the opportunity to watch this "artist" create his pièce de résistance before her very eyes.
The way they handle comedy in this series as well is perfect. The reveal of Fisk actually being able to speak the Chinese language (I can’t spell the name I apologise) and Wesley just looking away for a second realising he just wasted his time telling Fisk what she was saying was brilliant. The Fisk and Wesley relationship is outstanding and is really enjoyable and even though they are evil they have a sense of nice-ness to each other like a person would with their best friend. It’s outstanding three dimensional writing for characters and makes them more relatable which can intimidate the viewer even more because they are more grounded in reality and it seems realistic that you could see a Wilson Fisk in the streets and that is scary.
I absolutely loved their relationship in this season!
The Chinese language here would be Mandarin
I don’t think so. Vanessa is his only saving grace in the show and the comics. In the comics he actually leaves his life of crime because elf Vanessa. He loves his family more than evil and money. I was hoping they would go this route as well with him in the show . But he shows his softer and more loving side to a Vanessa. So he’s not all bad
A lot of the comedy is just natural funny stuff that people do.
It’s just works.
I love your commentary about the camera work. Makes me look at this show in a whole new light!
Ayyyy Kristina!! That’s awesome to hear honestly. This really brighten my day
A whole new light. Yeah...I see what you did there. 😏
a yellow light?
Loving this reaction series so much. Can't wait until you get to season 3. Whole show is just nuts!
Excited for it man! Happy you are digging them man! It’s been so damn awesome. Much love Adam!
nothing but love
@I don’t know Boring 1, 3, 2 for me but all of them are really close especially 1st and the 3d.
I don’t know Boring I’m in agreement with giorgi, 1 holds a place in my heart but 3 is incredible also
I like the question you asked about Vanessa and how she's possibly grooming him; that got me thinking about how they may be influencing each other. All the times I've watched and rewatched this series, I had never put tooooo much thought into her character -- I just took her to be one of those people who's attracted to "damaged" people, that she likes his complexity and disposition. And in her attraction to him, she supports him by "grooming" him to be the best he can be. But while thinking about that, particularly at the end of this episode I now wonder if he's also indirectly grooming her. The way that she, after Fisk tells her about killing his dad, is all jolly the next morning and making herself at home in his condo, and the way she's constantly smirking and like excited to be dressing him up in his walk-in closet, I wonder if she's changed. I think it was during their first date that she mentions she doesn't care about his power, and I totally believe she was being truthful. But after seeing the end of this episode, I wonder if she's actually toeing that line a lot closer than I had previously thought and she's changed and been somewhat groomed -- that her attraction isn't just to his complexity, but she's now excited to be partners with a guy about to visibly exert his power over New York.
It’s slowly seeming as if she’s grooming him. Whether it’s for her own goals or to just help his..traits of that have been shown with their relationship!
I love this episode. The parallel between Fisk and Murdock is so clear; both have very physical fathers, who taught them lessons that they carry into their lives, offered them alcohol at a young age, both feel responsible for their fathers' deaths and both feel a deep connection to his city. I love the trope of the hero and villain being two sides of the same coin, and Fisk and Murdock are the best pair that demonstrate that
Couldn’t agree more Jack. I love what this show is doing with its characters.
There is no way to say enough about Vincent D'Onofrio's acting as Fisk. He inhabits the role and turns something well written but potentially trite into a monumental study in character. One of the best character actors out there.
This episode really gets into what made this show and season so incredibly good.
They really take their time building up Fisk as a character, show off his motivations and goals as well. Too often the bad guys are bad just for the sake of it, they're not given enough time as people and instead just show up to do horrible things to be hated for. Fisk is still human, a terrible one in many ways but at least we get to see other sides of him..
Vincent D'Onofrio was a perfect cast for the role.
Agreed, they’ve done an incredible job with this character!
When I showed my dad daredevil this was the episode I couldn't wait to see his reaction to. Had the same feeling watching this video. People need to watch this show.
That sounds kinda messed up considering what Kingpin does to his Dad but i know what you mean 😂
Lmaooo Happy Fathers Day??? 😂
@@JamesVSCinema I probably subconsciously made him watch it to let him know he best be good to me 😂😂
Yup, love how they hit you with Fisk's back story at this point in the season. Makes you reevaluate what you have seen so far. Like the painting. Love it.
Vincent D'onofrio should be the cinematic Kingpin. He is mesmerized in this role!
Cant't wait see you react to Frank Castle episode in the second season. Like this one, understanding him and his mentality. Some of the best writing and acting on this show. Love your work, keep it going!
Yes man! Thank you for the support Chuck. I’ve been heavily enjoying this series because of the depth they go into!
This show does a great job of holding a mirror up to Matt with the villain. They both grew up loving their home city, they both have anger issues, they both were very heavily influenced by their fathers (who both lose a lot). If their families were switched, Matt could very easily have ended up being Fisk. And then on top of being a warped image of what the hero could have been, Fisk is also a well written, complex character in his own right.
Very true Jesse. One of the main reason this show thrives at least to me is because of how they treat these characters.
3:57 ok but villains having best friends that they care about I love that! It doesn't happen enough.
Loving going through this show again with you. Really enjoyed your commentary on this episode, especially everything relating to Fisk and his relationship with Vanessa. Definitely helping me to remember why this is one of my favorite shows!
In my opinion I think Fisk/Kingpin from this series is one of the greatest villains of recent years, it’s hard to make someone truly intimidating these days.
awesome reactions- it's
interesting the way fisk and matt take similar but different paths- one has lost his father through crime and one kills his father and becomes a manipulative criminal- btw incase it hasn't been brought up the actor for fisk was 19yrs old when he played private Pyle in Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket
Thanks you for bringing that up Joseph! I had no idea actually!
THIS episode
Idk if you noticed, but that old guy boss character (I forget his name) is the same actor that played the warden in Shawshank Redemption
11:17
"Everybody needs a Wesley."
Subscribed.
9:58 I’m sorry but the part where Kingpin flipped the table made me laugh 😂😂😂
Loving the excellent analysis and the appreciation of this series. Awesome!
Looking through the comments, whatever I thought of saying has already been said. You are creating a thoughtful space that is attracting thoughtful viewers...well done!
That’s the biggest compliment for me honestly. The community here is so damn amazing. Especially now with everything that’s going on in the world, I’m just happy to have such a positive community with you all!
xD and this is why I love the Wilson Fisk Kingpin persona. It's a whole different approach to what "bad guys" were in the 90s and early 2000s in movies and tv shows.
I mean. He's still a messed up person and incredibly intimidating. But with the reason of how he became like that, he doesn't just become 'some evil person' you want to see destroyed. If you now put him next to a random other antagonist with no back story --> you'll want him to win.
And you actually understand his motivation for cleaning up Hell's Kitchen AND why he takes such a radical approach to it.
It's crazy xD
(ps: I am one of those fools who believed Vanessa genuinely loved him. Went along with his very obvious big flaws. And decided to roll with making him a better bad guy for the sake of love. xD I know it's cheesy. But I want to believe in a genuinely flawless woman like that xD)
Keep 'em coming.
Wilson Fisk is layered like an onion...or an ogre...or a parfait...
“Get the saw” 😨😨😨
Man they turned Fisk from this to a pimp in the hawkeye series.
Superb analysis! Keep it up mannn
Appreciate you my man!
Yessss, been waiting for this, keep up the awesome work!!!
Appreciate that my man!! Haven’t forgotten your message either!
@@JamesVSCinema No problem bro, thank u for caring tho ;)
Just to let you know James, out of all my suggestions ,Panic Room is probably the best one. Enjoy the weekend and try not to drink too much.
Appreciate you Alex! I belieeeeeve I’ve seen that! And you do the same man, instead of drinking I’ll probably just stuff my face with food 😂
You should react to the movie “stay” from 2005 with Ryan gosling
Matt wants things to work within the confines of the law. He also recognizes that things that bent in Hell’s Kitchen, frontier justice may be called for.
I wonder if she views him as a beautiful painting of something
I know this will sound stupid, but when you get to season 3 episode 4 please watch it on a big screen with loud audio, just saying and i hope you can bring us these reactions a little faster
Check out mr robot
First season is still the best...with season 3 a very close second
Actually just started season 2
@@JamesVSCinema enjoy bro
Please react to the Turkish miniseries 'Sahsiyet' (Persona). It is inarguably one of the greatest shows ever made.
Fisk and Venessa (Girlfriend) remind me of Macbeth, their lust for power, order and money. Lady Macbeth always kept Macbeth in check and kept him ordered. I don’t know if I’m looking too into it.
I actually loved this analogy man! That Macbeth example is damn near accurate
James VS Cinema thanks mate 👌 Fisk is just one tank of a character with so many layers. Really intriguing. Anyway love your channel.
Im a wesley
Amazing reaction man. I recommend you watching narcos. Its a netflix series about pablo escobar
Appreciate that!! I’ll do my best to add on some tv shows. Thinking about doing The Boys 2 soon!
@@JamesVSCinema yessirrr excited
I don’t know y but I just subscribed. Hmm. Weird!!
Lmaooo very weird!
Have you seen blade runner? If not please watch them both, (the first movie has many versions, the best one is the final cut because it's fully the director's movie) it also has a sequel
That’s one of my favorite movies!
@@JamesVSCinema me too the vibe in this movie is magical takes me to another place, have you seen the sequel? It's fantastic, one of the best sequels ever, i prefer the first but the sequel is still amazing
Do "watchmen 2009"
One of the best movie by zack snyder
I’ve seen that actually 👌🏽
A

Fisk is a great villain, but I prefer Gao who is the true master of mindgames.
She has some dark secrets for sure
