Echo

TV Show Rating

Marvel's latest made-for-tv, and (apparently) the first in their 'Spotlight' series of more adult-orientated affairs (think Netflix's Daredevil, The Punisher, etc), following the character Echo first introduced in Hawkeye; the niece of the Kingpin.

Yes, the same Kingpin (and actor) as in the superb Netflix Daredevil series.

Charlie Cox Daredevil also has what amounts to an extended cameo in the latter half of the first episode, the first half of which is pretty much a recap of previous series!

Only 5 episodes long; starts strong but seems to run out of steam a bit.

Movie Rating

Starring a pre-Daredevil Charlie Cox and based on the book of the same name by Neil Gaiman, this actually sticks pretty close to it's source material for the majority of its runtime: that is, up until about the last 30 minutes or so when it goes off in completely its own tangent.

I also have to say that I found the inclusion of Ricky Gervais to be completely out of place (I find his whole schtick to be incredibly annoying anyway), and Robert De Niro playing against type as Captain Shakespeare also took me quite by surprise the first time I saw it (but good on him for being game enough to do so).

The reason I haven't been as active this week because I was in New York. Not going to lie, I went there to catch Tom Hiddleston in Betrayal. I waited outside the stage door on the 12th, and they never came out. So, I returned the next night (after seeing the matinee), and they did come out. I got to meet Charlie Cox, Zawe Ashton and Tom Hiddleston. I did actually get a selfie (which I am not good at) with him, BUT, I was cursing my phone out because I thought it wasn't taking the picture. I would post it, but I look like such a dweeb. He looks amazing, as expected and damn, he's hotter IRL, and that hair is majestic...
