taragel October 24, 2015 Share October 24, 2015 I was confused as to why they went with Ritter to play a dark, noir, superhero originally, because I'd only ever seen her in slightly over-the-top comedic stuff (apparently she was on Breaking Bad though?), but the trailer convinced me she's going to be great. I'm getting awesome darker Veronica Mars but starring Faith Lehane (from Buffy) vibes from this. Very excited to read all the great reviews of the Comic-Con first look too. A show with multiple excellent female characters? Few and far between.

Kel Varnsen October 27, 2015 Share October 27, 2015 Finally got around to watching the trailer. While I remember reading the comic when it first came out I am pretty sure I dropped it because I started to get annoyed with all the crap Bendis was writing. That said this looks pretty awesome. One thing that interests me about the MCU is how the levels of powers of the human characters has been slowly inflating over the years. I mean Jessica looks way more powerful than Cap, who appeared to be the strongest human in the MCU for a long time (not counting the Hulk). And in a few years we will be getting Spidey who will likely be even stronger. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18388-the-pulse-jessica-jones-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-1644265

Danny Franks November 13, 2015 Share November 13, 2015 (edited) Spoiler Alert: We're going to learn if Jessica ever donned her pink-haired, silver-spandex Jewel costume. The short answer is no. Damn it. It makes sense, unfortunately. This is a world that doesn't have a long-standing tradition of costumed heroes. The only ones who have been out there doing that are the characters from the Avengers franchise, and now Daredevil. There wouldn't really be a way to establish Jewel as a concept. But the downside of that is that they'll have to find Jessica's PTSD somewhere else. She's not always been the dour, nihilistic and bitter PI that she is now. Will they make Purple Man the sole cause of it? I kind of hope not, because that story is icky enough anyway.

Scout Finch November 15, 2015 Share November 15, 2015 Oh, Ritter is a brilliant actress. I first noticed her when she had a small recurring role on Veronica Mars and she caught my eye immediately, because she did so much with so little. Then she had her breakout role on Breaking Bad that made people notice her. In-between Breaking Bad and Don't Trust The B in Apartment 23, she also played the lead on a short-lived Starz show called Gravity where she played a very tortured and suicidal character. The show was horrible, but she was fantastic. As someone who is not particularly into the Marvel Universe (I have not watched a single one of the movies), she's the main draw why I'm interested in the show. And the trailer looks beautifully dark and nuanced. I'm excited. There's something really uniquely striking about her and she's been my celeb girl crush for years. Like you, I wouldn't be interested in watching this show otherwise. I remember unexpectedly coming across Gravity some years back too, and being very impressed by her.
