I doubt they keep Punisher a 'Nam vet. It'll probably be updated to Gulf War because they're not going to have him be in his late 50's or 60's. I think he's got the right look though and he's got that crazy intensity down...

Of course, maybe that's the whole plan, which would be disappointing. |

No. The Punisher will never be a poster boy for PTSD caused from combat. That was NEVER Frank Castle's issue. Frank Castle's issues stem from seeing his family murdered in front of him, and then he himself is nearly killed along with them. He lived. They didn't. He has a large amount of self loathing toward himself for that, and contemplates suicide on more than one occaision before turning his loathing and aggression toward the criminal scum of the earth. Frank Castle's combat veteran background simply served as a storytelling tool to explain how it is that Castle is so deadly with so many different weapons, hand to hand combat, demolition, and tactics. There's not going to be any "He was a veteran lets all feel sorry for him" bullshit. No ****ing way. Love the Bernthal casting for Frank Castle. This dude is going to knock that role out of the ****ing park. Well, as long as his director can keep that head rubbing shit that he does to a minimum, and work around those scenes where his face looks as if he's trying to hold back a wet fart.

Well I certainly hope not. Just saying I could see it. Marvel is handling everything so well there is a part of me that can't believe they can keep it up. "They have to blow it sometime." |

The spin-off series' on Netflix are focused on a Jessica Jones (woman), Luke Cage (a black character), and Iron Fist (rumored to be cast as an Asian actor)... I'm actually excited about the diversity but I want them to pull it off in a good way. Hopefully it doesn't get overly cheesy but based on the people involved I think they can do it right. I want them to acknowledge each of the characters' gender and race not as an overly good or bad thing. It can be done, I'm quite sure of it. |
