how did it come to this?
watched daredevil just now. it was a good enough show, for a mindless afternoon of fun i guess. jennifer garner kicks ass in this. it's always different, watching guys and gals save the day. somehow. always a wee bit more exciting to see the female save the day instead of the male.
one thing i dont understand though - what's it with heros and leather? now i've seen movies where heros, wearing an armor of it's-so-tight-i-can-hardly-breathe leather, prowling streets at night, getting seduced by skimpily clad maidens and somehow always managing to save the day by kicking the shit outta huge but dumb looking criminals one too many times(think batman, and so so many of the action films that so dominate our big screens today) but daredevil is seriously by far the most er, clichetic(argh, i know, no such word..but, you know what i mean). maybe even worse. i mean, it's bad enough we have a leather clad lawyer who cant differentiate right from wrong(so much for super senses), but do all of them have to wear leather?
and besides, the reason many hormonely unbalanced teens go watch this movie(eyecandy, they say) comes out for like, 2 seconds, sleeps with her hero, and dies. tragic life man, simply tragic.
but seriously, i enjoyed the show. it was kinda good, im just feeling critical today.
