Anyone watching the 9/11 series The Looming Tower on Hulu? I have told the wife I am surprised no one has made a really good 9/11 movie yet. Just curious how good this series is.
I would think Mel Gibson, Clint Eastwood, Peter Berg or maybe Christopher Nolan could pull off a good movie.
Tried watching Officer Downe but the double barreled, magazine fed revolver made me turn it off.
Finished up season 2 of Jessica Jones the other day. Pretty good. Now I just have to wait another few years for Season 3 where things get good again! Also - there may very well be another Marvel show - Hellcat.
You actually like Jessica Jones? I've seen it in the queue, but never really considered watching it.
It's not bad. I liked season 1 better, actually. Season 2 kind of goes into "the making of Jessica Jones".
I do think that Marvel and Netflix can ride that gravy train as long as Netflix remains a viable business. Their multiple series on the platform are all decent - from 45 to 55 mins at a time.
I've wondered about this. Disney now owns Marvel, and have been removing content from Netflix and apparently are to start their own streaming service. Should be interesting to see how that plays out. I guess I may give Jessica Jones a try. Marvel/Netflix hasn't steered me wrong yet.

Agreed. The future of the Marvel shows' distribution will be interesting to watch. I know at THIS time, I don't plan on subscribing to a Disney streaming service - but who knows. Between their network TV, EPSN, and all their kids networks and movies - it may be compelling.
Daredevil has been my favorite so far. Luke Cage and The Defenders probably tied for #2. I'd put Jessica Jones ahead of Iron Fist. Note: All this is from a guy who has ZERO experience reading any of the actual comic books / knowing zero backstory of any of it.
Was very excited to see Timothy Oliphant from Deadwood & Justified in it!
