    Wutang Clan are allowed to steal it back from Srhrekli ( or whatever the fuck his name is ) as long as Bill Murray is involved in the heist. It's in the contract.

    I admit, I've never read any of his books, nor do I claim to know anything of Cage's mythos, but I am curious.

    OKay, so being bulletproof and pretty much indestructiblle, and seeing from the trailer that the main bad guy just endlessly throws henchmen with guns and fists at him, what would be Luke's arch enemy and how if at all the big battle play out?

    It seems that Cornell Stokes, the main villain, could be a nod to Cornell Cottonmouth, a villain from Power Man series. There's a guy creditted as Cottonmouth's Driver on imdb and stunt double for Cottonmouth himself. So there's that. Also, Erik LaRay Harvey is playing Diamondback aka Willis Stryker. How badass were these villains?

    From wiki (spoiler for potential series plot reveal):
    Spoiler: show
    Not much is known about Cottonmouth's history except that he has established himself as a drug lord in New York. When Willis Stryker wanted to frame Carl Lucas, he stole a shipment of heroin from Cottonmouth's organization.
    The first Diamondback was a foe of Luke Cage. Willis Stryker, one of Luke's childhood friends, first appeared in Luke Cage: Hero for Hire #1. Known as Diamondback for his mastery of knives, including specially-gimmicked knives that exploded, released toxic gases or created sonic waves, he was apparently killed in an explosion in Luke Cage: Hero For Hire #2 (June 1972).

    Well, if you watch Jessica Jones they show that his invulnerability only goes skin-deep, and if he takes an internal injury his power becomes a liability because he can't be injected with anything or operated on, so I would think that enough blunt force would actually work vs him. If this Cottonmouth dude employs the Zapp Branigan Gambit(wave after wave of men), it might be a legit threat to Luke.

    The real threat looks like it'll be how much damage civilians take because of Luke Cage's hero antics. An old man or two will bite the dust. Believe it.

    luke cage and cheese in the same show, what a world. also mahershala ali will be the ballinest baller in the show. this will continue the tradition of netflix MCU villains being way way way better than movie villains. season 2 of daredevil notwithstanding

    tv show villains have a whole series to develop, as opposed to most movie villains having only the one film, with the exception being Loki, which of course makes him the best movie villain

    You say this, but Kilgrave was a better villain by the end of episode 1 than Loki is after however many movies he's been in.

    That's because PG villains are bad, pretty much no matter what.

    Spoiler: show


    Just imagine if Loki could control people and make them walk off buildings. I mean, he could, only thing holding him back is the ratings.

    Kilgrave was such an amazing villain. Just when you start to sympathize with the dude he gets even batshit crazier lol. British dude fucking hit it out of the park.

    Scottish, but yes. Although I suppose doing batshit crazy isn't too hard for him after nailing batshit neurotic Doctor Who for several seasons.
