Why are they SO FUCKING BAD at hiring competent writers and actors?
>spend 100 million on tv show
>utter trash
>do this 20 more times a year
holy fuck, where do they get these actors? I could do a better job and I only did theater for 4 years in high school, jesus christ its TERRIBLE, how does Netflix afford to make shit show after shit show?
I wanna watch it because Netflix sells it as a "kung-fu show"
how is the kung-fu? Is it like Iron Fist or is it actually good?
fight scenes are the only good part of the show, a good level below raid and ip man though, the writing is atrocious and the acting is even worth, I was really really shocked at how bad the acting was, writing was once again high school tier level, I don't know how Netflix finds such bad actors and writers
If the kung-fu is good then I might suffer through horrible writing (shitty acting is expected from the genre desu).
how are they split? at least one fight per episode?
they're terrible, they're shot really poorly and half the time you can't see anything because of bad lighting or shit-tier CGI covering the screen.
kung fuists aren't renowned for their acting abilities, but usually when you have something starring martial artists you don't have 50 minutes of a boring, capeshit-tier plot between every fight scene
What's with the random kpop on the first episode? It was so awkward.
everything has to be trendy and hip, same reason why generic hip hop is shoe horned into every show
Daredevil, luke cage, iron fist are all much better than Wu. Maybe they just hate Asians or something.
gonna make some webms
That's probably it, some old fart who doesn't respect asian culture was told to make a kung fu property. Cue water dragons and people in slave soldier armor pretending to be assassins
Wu the last airbender.
Well, better than Iron Fist, that's for sure. Action is much better and there are some good actors but...
Just watch Warrior.
I found all villains to be great desu, but Iko Uwais just can't act in English, at all.
No they aren't.
why he go bald?
At the very least they are better actors.
Uncle Six is great. He's a nothing actor that nobody cares about but wherever I see him he steals the show. I remember that godawful movie RZA made a few years back and he was in that too, genuinly only good part.
Anyway, someone mentioned Warrior earlier and I look at Joe Taslim and how well they hid his limited acting ability and poor english, that's what you need to do with Iko too, he's a great martial artist but very poor actor that can't speak English well.
Not even.
supposedly the Wu Assassin can turn into any of the 1000 monks who gave him the power, though he only turns into Mark Dacascos in the show.
i don't get the problem shit sounds great once i wake up tomorrow i'm gonna check it out
It's very kitschy and it has dumb superpowers cgi. It sounded good on paper but then the trailer came out and it looked disappointing and then the show came out and... you'll see. It's worth a watch if you like martial arts movies though.
righton dude
It's aggressively boring, and you've just seen one of the handful of fights Iko has in the series.
>anything with Summer Glau
>bad
her character does fuck all and barely even fights
Good. The less of that goblina, the better.
end of the fight, sadly we never see him firebending again
now the earthbender fight
Watch the superior martial arts kino instead.
Someone redpill me on the acting. Exactly how bad is it?
everyone except the protagonist is fine
now some girl on girl action
The protag is criminally bad. I don't think the man himself is capable of emotions (possibly autistic).
>goes to hang out with her friends an hour later, no questions asked about the bruising
>no injury from such a vicious beating other than bruising, not even stitches
Based tough woman
Warrior was better on Cinemax
combat stilettos
more girls fighting
now it's a threesome
What a coincidence, the girls happen to fight each other.
thanks for letting me know about this user
ill prolly watch it in an hour
>You'll never see a The Raid and John Wick crossover
>iko uwais
Trust Netflix to ensure apathy on actors you actually want to see more of.
first fight before he got superpowers
first fight with superpowers
At this point, you might as well post the diner fight, pier fight and mystical CGI land fight so there's no reason for anyone to watch this shitshow.
Why did he die from being stabbed in the eye?
The third one kinda is...
>You can totally see the Raid guys holding up to make Keanu look like a worthy match
That was fun
