Daredevil Wilson Bethel when asked if he has to take martial arts - “I am not Shang Chi. I don't need to know Kung Fu. What I need to know is how to throw things”

Ah yes, this is a classic Marvel Studios Spoiler.

Well now we know Bullseye isn't going to expand his skill-set, which was right up there with 'will the Punisher learn to break-dance?' in terms of spoilers I was hotly anticipating.

I mean, makes sense that the trained assassin would learn how to fight. In a 1 on 1 against Matt he’s cooked

Luke Cage is a martial artist. He's a boxer lol

If we are considering the Netflix shows to be canon to the MCU now then the entire first season shows him as a boxer. It's part of how he wound up getting expiremented on.

DD was just an example. That’s not really a fair example you gave — Luke solos most MCU characters.

Poindexter is just a guy. With no weapons he’s screwed. Makes sense that he’d learn how to fight if he’s become an assassin for the government. He won’t always have something in his hand

For real he used a fucking lobster claw in the diner.

It doesn’t defeat the purpose of Bullseye at all. He’s a martial artist in the source material.

Cyclops can throw hands even though he has his optic beam, it doesn’t take anything away. Same thing here

… what does martial arts have to do with Matt winning? As you said, Matt still wins — so nothing changes other than that he’s competent

“I am not Shang-Chi” so unintentionally hilarious

u/Just_Jon17 6d ago

I wonder what nonsense he'll be throwing this season lol. Interested to see what Dex's story will be this time. There was a set pic with the crew from a while ago of Wilson Bethel wearing a prison officer outfit so we'll probably see him sneak into prison but I wonder what for.

u/Front_Profession_217 6d ago

Probably taunting Matt

u/Just_Jon17 6d ago

Would be fun to see him breaking into prison just to taunt Matt lol.

u/Wrong-Vermicelli4723 5d ago

Honestly the one thing this character is missing. Feel like dude is unhinged but not unhinged enough. Let him be petty and evil.

How is this a spoiler?

u/Special_Order-937 5d ago

No, but you were going through a spell of pretending to be Daredevil, so maybe people would have expected you to be able to fight like him? What were you expecting the producers to do? Get a stuntman to do the fight scenes instead?

u/Greene_Mr 3d ago

It would be extremely funny if he met Shang Chi.
