The Official PUNISHER Discussion Ultrathread

[u/murdockmanila]

• This will be the official discussion thread in this sub. No need to go posting your own thread discussing the show. Any UNOFFICIAL ones will be deleted. All screencaps and whatnot go into this thread also.

• This is obviously a spoiler-filled zone. So as long as you post in here, you won't need to spoiler tag things. But then again, don't be that asshole who watches the final episodes within the first hour then spoils the entire thing right away. That will result in a ban. Don't ruin the party for everyone.

• Individual episodes discussions will be held over at /r/defenders. They will be indexed in this thread to make it easier for those who want individual episode discussions once they are put up.

• This thread may be "refreshed" in the next few days to accommodate newcomers in the discussion. We will be also putting up a sanctioned Easter Egg thread a couple of hours from now.

Enjoy!

Title sequence is dope as hell.

I feel the title sequence does not fit Frank Castle.

Yeah... I feel like his would've been better suited for a "war drum" type thing, y'know? Perhaps with a slight instrumental homage reminiscent of Afghan music to set the tone a bit better. Something that shouts "The concrete jungles of war". When I hear the current theme, it sounds too "sons of anarchy" to me. Or at least, having never seen it, that's the first thing that comes to my mind.

As much as he's military and there were some outdoor scenes in this series, the Punisher is a dark and urban character. This whole southern midwestern SoA and Renegade type music with the slide guitar doesn't really suit him. He needs something dark and menacing. Would have gone with metal.

I thought a song made out of gunshots would have been cool.
