So glad they brought him back, would’ve been such a big fumble if they didn’t bring him back after how good he was in s3. Bethel is amazing in the role and dex is an awesome villain.

Originally he wasn't coming back. It was part of Marvel's c**** initiative to randomly recast and throw away the Netflix actors. Some were recast like Vanessa and others were shunned like Foggy and Karen. Im so thankful for the reset due to the writers strike. We probally wouldn't of had a season 2 without it.

They definitely avoided major disaster by doing the reset and leaning into the Netflix show and characters/actors and a more similar vibe to that show. What they were originally planning was really stupid

Ayelet Zurer portrayed Vanessa in the Netflix series and is portraying her in Born Again.

Sandrine Holt was going to portray her until the overhaul. But I think that was a scheduling conflict, not a "Disney is c****" issue

it was. Ayelet was filming a TV show at the same time as born again, but due to the strikes/Marvel delay mandate, she got time back in her schedule (because her show was cancelled).

Vanessa was recast and then they digitally inserted Ayelet into Season 1 much later in the production. She even is lit wrong and a higher resolution than everyone else. Its f****** bizarre people don’t see it.

This is what you said. C****. Your word.
Money wasn't the issue, it was the previous showrunner. If you can't tell that the Disney show had a much bigger budget to work with, given its much higher production value, I don't know what to tell you.
Why are you being so aggressive?

The story on that skit is kinda funny. John Mulaney wrote the first one of those when he was a writer on SNL. Lorne Michaels said no. He pitched it a few times, Lorne kept saying no. Eventually he was brought on to host his own episode and he brought the original script with him and was like "I think I want to do this now that im the host" and it was a f****** smash. They have done like three or four of them at this point.

Do I just search John Mulaney SNL musical skits to find these? Or is it something more specific?
I loved the dog resting his head on the table. Lil dude could not give a f***.

Even with perfect accuracy the force needed to kill someone with a fork is pretty extreme. Reality is not a thing with his powers.

I don't remember where I read it, but apparently he has a superpower that allows him to turn anything he throws (or spits I guess) into a deadly projectile. I'm not overly familiar with how he works in the comics, so I couldn't tell you if it's different there.
There's usually a sound effect when he throws stuff, which I assume is meant to further emphasize that he's not just throwing stuff like a normal human.

They seem to be making his costume more accurate as he continues. Just between Season 1 and Season 2 there have been a lot of improvements. He is even using his bullseye logo now on his mask.

I do love the classic Bullseye looks, but this version does seem semi inspired by a more modern version of the costume https://ibb.co/N6tz8Qc

Its basically a super power.
Hes also been augmented with Adamantium. You can hear his metal joints in this episode when he wakes up.

Baring MCU changes like Kingpin's upgrade, it's just super training and natural ability like how Daredevil's powers are all from him training with Stick.
That said just look at what Sam Wilson does in the MCU when he's a normal dude.

The scene sucks. The whole reboot sucks. Horrible dialogue. Horrible soft camera filtering. Horrible writing and CG filled action scenes like this one. It's embarrassing. Especially the sound effects of the forks. Like they're some ultra sharp ultra thin sword.
