Well call me old and slow but I just watched DareDevil and Elektra for the first time and they were great. I never thought that Ben Afleck could actually be a super hero, thats why I never went to see it in theaters. I didn't know E's story so now I am actually interested and might just read a comic book or two aside from X-men. Now I want to grow up to be a trained assassin, too. Did anybody watch the deleted scenes from Elektra? I wish they would have kept the part with Matt there as she woke up. Both movies ended without real endings leaving open the chance of sequals... Do you think that either will be revisited?

I too was impressed with these movies when we watched them (Daredevil more-so than Elektra, but the latter was still pretty good). DD seemed to follow the little that I knew from comic. Elektra was interesting to me just because I really knew nothing about her. The villains were cool. Tattoo had some very imaginative powers, and Typhoid Mary was just... killer! ;D Oh, I also enjoyed the kiss that her and Elektra shared. Did any of you guys see these movies?

Wow, I thought I was one of the few who actually liked DD! To me it was quite satisfying. It, however, was blasted by critics and fans alike.
The Elektra movie, on the other hand, was totally disappointing to me...coulda, shoulda been so much better. I almost think they should have Jennifer Garner reprise the role and make a totally new Elektra just to redeem themselves!

Well movie notwithstanding the titles to DareDevil were awesome, what a great concept to make the lighted windows into braille and then to the cast names, etc. I love Imaginary Forces (the company the designed and produced the titles). If not familiar with it check it out: imaginaryforces.com/project/32Edit:Link added

I agree a little with redoing Elektra or do a sequel with more about just her and not as much about saving the girl, Abby. Does anybody know who Abby turns into, is she a Marvel hero latter? Like I said it really didn't end she just saved the world for that day.

Daredevil was fine with the exception of the bad guy, Bulls Eye. What a goofy villain. I like King Pin and wish they would have just focused on him and Daredevil more so.
Elektra was fine with the imagery and CGI but really lacked a story. I found it to be boring with the exception of the attractiveness of Elektra herself. ;D
