: : 3. There were a few cheesy plot tricks, like the nosy reporter finding out his true identity, warning him about Electra, and then not printing his name. Another one, is Electra thinking DareDevil killed her father, then she almost kills him...kind of cheesy and predictable.
: Ahem, these "cheesey plot tricks" as you put them were taken directly from the comics and are what made them great to many many folks. That reporter "Ben" is a major comics character not only in DD but in Spiderman as well.
~~Aye, but admit, isn't it slightly predictable that a nosy reporter is going to find out ANY super hero's identity??
: : 7. I also liked how he didn't have these magical super powers, the way I got it was that when he lost his sight he just focused on sound...I haven't read the comic book...did the chemicals give him this power?
: Yes they gave him a radar sense. Plus all his other senses were hightened which gave him more strength and balance... thats mentioned in the roof top montage as a kid.
~~Thanks...I actually think I remember that part now that you remind me.
: : 8. THEY RIPPED OFF THE CROW. That kind of irked me off. I am talking about in the beginning where the reporter flicks his cigarette and the flaming DD pops up. The Crow is one of my favorite movies, so that just kind of got under my skin.
: Big whoop. No one saw the crow so no one will notice. ZING! teehee
~~BLASPHAMERE....i think that's how you spell it.
: : 9. The sound track was AWESOME. Partly because I really like Evanescence, but I think the songs chosen were very fitting, and the music videos on the bonus features were nice.
: I love the soundtrack as well
~~Wow...we agree on something ;)
