Do you watch the series Daredevil?
gpt
Actually, I haven't, but I heard the main character is an unconventional superhero.
human
Supposedly the seasons are getting better and better and the third season is a winner.
gpt
I guess the hope is that a series gets better as it goes on, especially in a franchise as big as the Marvel universe that's part of something as huge as Disney.
human
Sony was offered to buy the characters for $25 million but they declined and only bought the rights to Spiderman. Bet they are regretting that now.
gpt
Yes, that was a poor choice. Apparently due to a contract from the 90s its signed with Universal Studios, even Disney can't use the major Marvel characters in its theme parks east of the Mississippi River.
human
Do you like DC as well? There is one character owned by Marvel and DC. It's only purpose is to keep the universes separate.
gpt
*relaxed posture* I guess there's a purpose for each character. Marvel even created a superhero just for a 4 year old boy who was uncomfortable wearing hearing aids.
human
That's cool! Blue Ear, right? I just heard about him.
gpt
Superheros really are inspirational, even it's one named "Normalman" who's just the only person on a planet of superheroes without superpowers.
human
That actually sounds interesting! I think I'd rather have my kids watch Pet Force though, Garfield as a superhero!
gpt
I wonder what Odie was like in that haha. I guess re-purposing or re-imagining characters is common; Stan Lee, the creator of Marvel, actually wrote 15 DC comics that re-imagined superheroes like Batman and Superman.
human
Interesting! I wonder why. Also, have you heard of real life superheroes? Apparently there is a website where you can register to be a superhero?
gpt
That's interesting, especially since there are over 300 registered (trademarked?) superheroes in the U.S.
human
Yeah, how weird. If there were actual superheroes on earth though would they cause a lot of damage? There was a comic series all about fixing the collateral damage from superheroes.
gpt
I guess that would make a good Netflix show, too; it seems like they'll produce pretty much anything these days.
human
*laughs* I love the Marvel series on Netflix, more so than the movies.
gpt
You're not alone, apparently; from 9 PM to 12 AM, Netflix accounts for a third of bandwidth use in North America.
human
*opens mouth slightly* Yeah I am guilty of using up some of that bandwidth during that time. Surprisingly though Netflix still spends 20 times more on postage than bandwidth.
gpt
Yes, those physical DVDs are hefty haha
