Marvel's "The Defenders" Gets Second Trailer
I'm not one to usually want to give up time. Time is a precious thing. After this trailer though, what's a little less than a month? I totally want to fast-forward to August 18th so I can park myself in front of a TV & not get up until this is over. Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter), & the Immortal Iron Fist (Finn Jones) team up "Avengers" style to take down the infamous "Hand" organization. Putting them at odds with Alexandria (Sigourney Weaver), a new addition & one of the things I'm looking most forward to about this 8-part series. I've been a fan of Weaver since I was a child, & that opening line about both sides of a war having to think they're the good guys is the main thing I always want in a villain. There's two villains that make really good stories. One that's just flat out evil incarnate, & then there's the one that thinks they're essentially doing the right thing. The latter of the two always seems to be the one that stands a better chance, & make the most terrifying antagonists. In addition to the heroes & main baddie, you get to see a little taste of lots of side characters. I noticed the return of Elektra (Elodie Young), Foggy (Elden Henson), Claire (Rosario Dawson), Madame Gao (Wai Ching Ho), Stick (Scott Glenn), & Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick). That's just on the first couple times through, I wouldn't doubt it if others are in there as well. This trailer has me pumped though. I'm definitely more excited for this than I have been any of these Marvel Netflix releases to date. What do you think? Does this trailer have yo as pumped as I am? Let me know in the comments, like, & share.
