Jessica Jones tv series

http://insidetv.ew.com/2010/12/17/me...jessica-jones/

Quote:
Twilight screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg is planning to bring Marvel superhero, Jessica Jones, to television, according to Variety. AKA Jessica Jones is being considered for ABC’s slate next fall, and Brian Michael Bendis, who created the comic-book series in 2001 (it was originally titled, Alias), will be a consultant for the show.
The scary part about this article..... TWILIGHT screenwriter...They should just make a Heroes for Hire tv series.

I think the bigger problem is that Bendis is working on it.

AKA Jessica Jones? Really? That sounds horrible. I liked it better when they were calling it Alter Ego. This is too bad. Give Alias to a good showrunner, throw it on a network like FX (where Bendis' other work, Powers is getting a show), and it could be great. Alias would lend itself great to a gritty noir show. Oh well.

I like Ritter but out of the finalists I was really hoping Dadarrio got the part.

Out of the 4 Marvel Netflix series announced this was the one I was most excited about. I know what I'll be doing over the Thanksgiving holiday.

Before Daredevil, I didn't trust them to pull this off. But if Marvel can create a serious morally-conflicted shades-of-gray real-world comic-book-story once (Daredevil), then why not again?

I'm really looking forward to it. Loved the Alias comics.

Very excited for this. Hopefully, I'll have that weekend off, and binge like a mofo. If it's half as good at the book, I won't be able to stop.

Read the five-issue Purple Man confrontation, couldn't get into any of the other "Alias" storyarcs... I think Jessica Jones is awesome, though, and can't wait to see this translated to screen.

When I heard the premise for the show, I read the first issue, then I ordered the Alias omnibus. I enjoyed the last She-Hulk run, which revolved around She-Hulk's law firm, and I figured I'd like Alias. Turned out better than I expected. I actually have the Pulse follow-up series in the mail from Amazon. Jones might be one of my new favorite characters.

It's funny. Kristen Ritter was my fan pic for Jessica Drew. But I think she can pull this off.

Some official pictures were released today. Guess they're going with purple clothing instead of purple skin for Kilgrave.

Let's not forget one my favorite Marvel characters, Patsy Walker. Now, Trisha Walker, presumably because Patsy is an old person nickname for Patricia...

So the comics... I'm not a very big Bendis fan but I've heard great things about the Alias run. You guys all recommend them?

I'd recommend it. It's definitely a good read, imo.
