What's wrong with women directing S2 of Jessica Jones?

I read on CBR that Daredevil season 3 will be directed exclusively by blind people.

So it'll probably be WORSE than season 1? I'm impressed

:tlol:

I don't care who directs Jessica Jones season 2, but it makes good PR sense to go with this.

.....I don't really see a problem with this. Why does the gender of the directors matter exactly?

I'm not familiar with Jessica Jones so I can't comment but I can think of reasons why people would be angry. What happened with the original directors? Did they do a good job? Was there a reason to get rid of them besides this PR stunt to get positive attention for being "progressive"? Are the new directors qualified?

Those are all excellent questions.

It doesn't matter.

And so I ask, why even announce such a thing? Based upon first names, I might have deduced such a thing on my own after viewing the season and said "huh. neat".

But they've chosen to make it a Proggy attention-getter headline. But whatever, I thought season 1 was ace and I love Ritter. Maybe these women can direct action better, I thought the fight scenes really dragged down an otherwise stellar production.

The studio didn't announce it, Variety reported it.

If this were as much the publicity stunt as people are making it out to be, there'd have been a straight up press release about it, and not some comments made at a convention that barely anyone outside of USC even knew existed.

I used to have enough energy to write a paragraph about how stupid you are. Not anymore, sadly.

You wrong. I right. Women bad. Men good.

TheSkeletonMan939 10-23-2016 05:22 PM

Is season one of Jessica Jones worth my time? I might start watching it at some point.
Better or worse than Daredevil?

plastroncafe 10-23-2016 05:25 PM

Honestly? The show's good, but I think the comic was better. I'd say it's on par with season 1 of Daredevil.
It deals heavily with PTSD, and intimate assault/rape. If these are things that aren't up your alley, maybe skip it.

TheSkeletonMan939 10-23-2016 05:30 PM

Is there rampant ass-kicking? If not, imma skip it.

...

In all seriousness though it might be interesting for me to try something different. If they were confident enough to make a series like this for the MCU they probably didn't slack on it.

plastroncafe 10-23-2016 05:36 PM

Not to the degree that there is in Daredevil.
(How that man remains so sexy while getting punched in the face, I'll never know.)

But there is some ass-kickery.
Tennent is AWESOME as the bad guy. Just amazing. Almost Fisk levels of amazing, and I think Fisk was hands down the best MCU villain we've seen.
