Omg, Misty is coming. Lol, I loved Luke In Jessica Jones, but I am so hyped for Misty.

ETA: So glad there's confirmation of her being on IF.

Thanks for starting a thread for this new show here at Spoilers. This thread has been assigned to me.

Hopefully at some point, the main comics will invest in them that way.

I've warmed up to Finn a lot recently. From all the vids I've seen, he has a great personality. The other day, he posted an article on sexual Kung Fu.

lol I'm really looking forward to seeing him with Mike and Simone.

He's a doll. The GoT guys are mostly great. Harry, Richard, Gethin, Joe...

I can't wait till we see them interact in live action any case. (Their daughter is such a tiny cutie!)

Luke's fight scenes are...omg, bones popping out...

CityGal · 09-07-2016, 08:51 PM

oh my!

scorpio_chick · 09-08-2016, 09:38 AM

"You want some?"

Not sure I should be swooning but...I am.

lol

On another note, I've never given reviews much credence, but I'm loving all of the praise for Simone/Misty so far, if only because it tells me she's at least going to get the attention/screentime she deserves. I'm so ready to see her in action.

His nonchalance is sexy af.

Simone was so excited at CCPD, so I pretty much expected as much. But I've only read one review:
Marvel’s Luke Cage Is the Unapologetically Black Superhero Show I’ve Been Waiting For. Glowing on all accounts. And about Misty...

Quote:

As the actress playing Misty Knight, Simone Missick has one of the show’s toughest jobs, portraying a cop working in a time where they’re not blindly trusted anymore. She nails the role by making Misty seem smarter and cooler than anybody else in the precinct house.

I've read about 7 or 8 so far and all but about 1 or 2 either praised Simone's performance or said she stole the show. I even watched a YT review with Kevin Smith and he was gushing over what a strong character Misty is, so much so that she could have her own show.

And I just read this review this morning where the author gives some pretty cool insight on her... Marvel's Luke Cage Season 1 Review

Quote:

Simone Missick, who plays NYPD detective Missy Knight and lends a welcome cerebral angle to the proceedings. She identifies clues and even sees apparitions when surveying crime scenes, and her sharp intuition is depicted as if it’s a superpower as extraordinary as Luke’s, which is very, very cool.

I know Misty being an awesome detective is canon but she sees apparitions?? I love that! Simone did say LC gives Misty fans everything they want and more. Sounds pretty spot on.

Oh and another thing I noticed is that Misty, not Claire, has been described as Luke's love interest. A bit surprising since Claire would make more sense, IMO but Misty is the female lead so I can understand why they'd go there. As I said before, I don't hate the idea, (I look forward to seeing them together) I just want it to be handled well, especially since Misty/Danny has to happen at some point.

She stole the show?!! Damn, that would be a first for the female lead outshining the main superhero (as far as critics would admit at least!) Ahh I'm even more excited now.

Does "her sharp intuition is depicted as if it’s a superpower" mean it's gonna be in her head, but we see it, like BBC Sherlock or the dude from Hannibal? That's way cool. Man.

I mean, Misty can have Luke now and Danny later.

I'm just curious since Luke/Claire had an intimate looking moment in the trailer... hmmm.

IKR?? Mike is getting major love as well, to be clear, Mahershala is too but female leads (especially woc) are so often ignored or downplayed that it's surprising to see Simone getting all this praise. Then again, if the writing really is great and she's getting a lot of screentime, it would be difficult to ignore her. lol

I don't watch Sherlock or Hannibal but that certainly does sound awesome.

The trailer did make me think there would be more between Luke/Claire but I haven't seen any mention of that so far. One of the reviews described her dynamic with Luke as a "developing friendship" which is actually cool too.

Initially, I didn't know how to feel about Misty possibly hooking with Luke and Danny because they are all so close. But then I remembered when I shipped one of my faves with brothers...

(Don't judge me!

) So I'm keeping an open mind and just hoping the writers do them justice.

Thanks for the sneak peek promo.

hannahfan · 09-11-2016, 10:01 AM

Aww, the reviews have me even more excited. I'm still hoping for some Misty on IF though. If not, I'm hoping she's in Defenders and season two of IF. I am also excited to see how the friendship between Danny and Luke develops. Love them.

Same, hannahfan!
