Cloak & Dagger (Marvel)

[Peeps]

[stip]

this is not high on my list of things to watch

[Peeps]

im intrigued by it

while set in the marvel U they normally deal with more cage/daredevil type foes. nothing too extreme but more street level threats.

for those who havent heard of these two

tyrone can create a black portal around him and send people away to the dark dimension (feeds on them). he can also wrap himself in that dark dimension (and others) to teleport (hence why he awoke on that rooftop perplexed)

tandy can create white light objects in the shape of daggers to use as weapons and can be used to calm cloaks urges to be "fed" into his dark dimension

i do no think their origin has changed much and neither are mutant or inhuman, but were exposed to waste from roxxon

I'm confused, is it a movie? tv show? where will it air?

[wease]

I'll give it a look n

[Leatherhead]

I don't know a whole lot about Cloak and Dagger, but I know some. I'll definitely be checking this out.

[Peeps]

its a tv show. ABC had a secondary channel that has since been renamed and this will air on that (i think its called freedom)

[lowlight79]

It can't be as bad as Iron Fist

Could it be Freeform? Formerly ABC Family? If so, this will be awful. That channel caters to teen shows and will be very teenie-bopper.

Thanks, I'll have to check to see if I get that channel.

correct on the first part but willing to give it a shot despite that

Yes. That's the one.

Marvel does a really good job of tying a variety of styles and genres into their universe, except when it comes to ABC. I agree, this'll probably blow.

The only Cloak and Dagger that matters:

That's what I was expecting, a remake of that movie.

[Jorge]

I like that Marvel films aren't even making the tiniest bit of effort to act like they're in the same continuity as the Marvel TV shows anymore.

IIRC there was one throwaway line in Age of Ultron that referenced Agents of SHIELD, and that's it. Anything else? I know the shows reference the movies a lot, but it never seems to be the other way around

I have to imagine it's because of Perlmutter.

In November 2001, Perlmutter became Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Marvel.[4] He became the Chief Executive Officer of Marvel Comics on January 1, 2005. He remained CEO of Marvel Entertainment, even after the acquisition of Marvel by The Walt Disney Company on December 31, 2009. Although Perlmutter received $800 million in cash and $590 million in Disney stock after the acquisition, he did not want a seat on Disney's board of directors.[11]

In September 2015, Perlmutter stopped overseeing the development of Marvel Studios. Disney felt the studio head, Kevin Feige, should report directly to the Chairman of The Walt Disney Studios, Alan Horn, so all cinematic properties of Disney, including Pixar and Lucasfilm, were under one management structure. The restructuring was allegedly due to Feige's "frustration" of working with Perlmutter as well as some alleged controversial comments and actions by Perlmutter, such as replacing the casting of Terrence Howard as James Rhodes with Don Cheadle because black people "look the same."[12] Jeph Loeb, who oversees Marvel Television and the television properties of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, still reports to Perlmutter.[13]

I watched the premiere last night. Not bad.

[wease]

I hadn’t realized it started. Is it just an episode per week?

[wease]

i do no think their origin has changed much and neither are mutant or inhuman, but were exposed to waste from roxxon

Didn’t Claremont change it to them being mutants whose powers were “triggered” when they were experimented on?
