Yes, I could definitely see that. And given the number of superhero TV programmes getting made now it wouldn't be a big stretch. However, I don't know who'd put the money up, given it bombed at the box office and, like you said, he's not the most sympathetic (or well known) of characters.

Constantine bombed at the box office and yet they're reviving it as TV. Same with Daredevil.

The Quiller Memorandum. Excellent understated performances and beautifully shot Berlin locations.

Yes, I had heard about the possibility of a Daredevil series. Constantine I never saw. A guy who worked in a comic shop once told me that Daredevil is a much better film if you watch the Director's Cut.

I didn't know there was a Director's Cut of Daredevil.

I'm not entirely sure what it is I didn't like about Daredevil. It just came off flat somehow. I suspect it was the casting and performances. Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck can be good, but in those roles, they were just dull. And Bullseye just added nothing to the film.

Agreed. It was a real disappointment. Just had a quick look at the Amazon reviews of the Director's Cut though and they seem to back up Comic Shop Guy's claims.

I feel like the crapness adds to its effectiveness.

'Twas merely a reference. I happen to like your collection of GIFs, which surely must be one of the world's largest.
