I'm in the same boat. I'll feel like I'm gonna miss some key notes about The Hand or some shit.
they actually do go in depth a bit about the hand, but i dont think itll be crucial to the defenders
The only takeaway from Iron Fist about the Hand us that there are different factions of it.

Also the series explicitly acknowledges that Danny is a shitty Iron Fist. When fantasy mirrors reality?
Excited about this... I hope the LC they bring is the first half of the season LC.
Also, Ward should have more screen time than Danny.
Claire. Hmmm.
Out in less than 2 hours and this is on page 3? I'm disappointed fam.

I wanna be hype, but I just watched Iron fist over this past week in case there was context for this. There has been a distinct downward trend in Marvel Netflix series and I'm afraid it's going to continue here.
Yeah, I haven't bothered rewatching IF since my first viewing. Luke Cage either, for that matter. I can't really see it being worse than those though. Maybe I'm just optimistic, lol
This was my first watch of IF. I had waited this long because I had heard it was bad, but it was much worse than I thought. I actually had trouble getting through it.
If they haven't improved Danny's character a lot from IF this is gonna be tough with JJ and DD having to carry Luke and Danny.
HERE WE FUCKING GO! See you lads on the other side!
Oh jeez, this release date got here way faster than I was expecting. I guess I just assumed this was later in the year or early next year or something.
This is great timing though, I needed something to watch this weekend.
I'm watching too. The fights may be better but I'm not sure Danny is any better, which is what I care about.
So far I'm really digging Sigourney Weaver's character, especially if i'm right about her concept.

There's a part in ep 3? that addresses that spoilerSpoiler: show
Episode 6 is so fucking bonkers. I can't believe there are only 8 episodes!
I can kind of agree with that, but his character works better in the framework of the ensemble than it did solo.
Really good overall. One minor nitpick is that there's a couple of fight scenes where they felt the need to add a hiphop track and while that's fine, it seemed jarring, not a smooth transition to it, especially on the one big fight near the end.
And definitely no need to watch the Iron Fist series. There's a couple of things that'll have a little more impact if you did, but you're not left in the dark if you don't.
Yup. Was not expecting that ending.

few episodes in and i am not feeling it, think i may be marvel'ed out
Marvel went meta with the IF reception and now everyone pretty much actively points out how Danny is a horrible Iron Fist lol
