Right!? I think you hit the nail right on the head there! Too many tropes squeezed into one character. It's like they're trying to do too much things all at once. They should've focused on key characteristics and rolled with it. Iron Fist should've been great for TV, but they really missed a huge opportunity. It's a shame too because I think they could've played the rich-guy-suddenly-became-broke card quite well. Just imagine a spoiled white kid trying to relearn how to be a normal human being.

Also, fun fact, all of Netflix's Defenders have been part of the Avengers, with Luke Cage leading the team at one point. Maybe they could've just created a Defenders series where the characters feature separately. Like, DD has episode 1, JJ has episode 2 with a cameo appearance from Cage, and so on. Maybe that would've fixed it? Them having their own solo outings but still as an ensemble.

I appreciate your passionate comment for my post. You're good people! There should be more people on Steemit like you :D
