The Old Daredevil & Elektra were a MESS

Bullseye was hands down the standout character out of the entire Daredevil movie. He may be cartoonishly insane, but he's enjoying it so much that it's hard to not to love him.

I miss Michael Clarke Duncan. He was such a great actor. He could make you cry, laugh, and be terrified. "Don't you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby!"

“Wake me up, WAKE ME UP INSIDE “

The Daredevil and Electra films were such a fever dream to me. At least they did give us a pretty good Kingpin.

Technically, the first Marvel "cinematic" universe was the Lou Ferrigno/Bill Bixby films where the Hulk met a version of Thor and Daredevil, and was planning to crossover with the Nicholas Hammond Spider-Man at one point.... But then again, Thor nor Daredevil got their backdoor TV shows off the ground, Electra got her spin-off film, so, you got me there! X3

Panning to Matt without a mask or sunglasses as the song goes "ALL THIS TIME I CAN'T BELIEVE I COULDN'T SEE" is still the hardest I've ever laughed at a movie

23 years later and I’m still pissed they ditched wolverines iconic yellow suit for a bunch of biker suits seriously let him wear the yellow suit in the insomniac game

Evanescence: "I can't believe I couldn't see." Movie: "Let's put Matt's eyes onscreen during this exact lyric." Oh, you show that. Carry on.

You gotta admit that the Affleck "Daredevil" was way more realistic, though. I mean, when I first met my wife, we also got into a fight at a playground where the kids gathered 'round and cheered up a storm!

Micheal Clarke Duncans Kingpin appearing in the MTV Spider-Man TV show (Which was meant to be a sequel to the Maguire film) supports my headcanon that all the Pre MCU Marvel films are set in the same universe

Kamen Rider Kuuga is pretty much what the Daredevil movie should've been. A cop/law drama show with villains that actually wear suits while also having street punk aesthetics in human disguise. A protag that wants to do good in a world with a ton of scum, gradually getting more powerful and having some angry moments. But "for kids"

To be fair, that "C-Train" line dd hit was kinda cool.....At least when I first heard it.....A long time ago.

I'm really starting to love these videos on older Marvel movies, mostly since MCU stuff starts to get tiring

We all shit on the Daredevil film but no one can say Michael Clark Duncan wasn't the man as Wilson Fisk.

I don’t know other people’s opinions of this but I really liked Michael Clarke Duncan as Kingpin and it’s a shame we didn’t get to see him do more with the role. I actually think he could’ve been a good addition to the Raimi Spider-Man movies. And I know he voiced the character in TNAS but I still would’ve like to have seen him in live action one more time

I always forget Elktra had her own movie

This Daredevil movie had a great use of Michael Clark Duncan as Kingpin. Kinda sad we didn't get an aside about Trial of the Incredible Hulk as the other weird daredevil movie.

Daredevil is a really compact character. He’s a super- powered blind catholic ninja lawyer

Surprised you didn't mention the deleted scene in Elektra where Affleck returns as Matt, having a psychic conversation with her. No, I didn't make that up lol

I feel like Elodie Yung's portrayal of Elektra is nowhere near talked about enough. She was PERFECT. Her and Charlie's chemistry was off the charts and I felt so engaged with their relationship. Really hope she returns.

It is funny how they pretty much let Colin Farrell go over the top as he possibly good while at the same time not actually put in a costume unless they really thought they were gonna get a sequel to the movie

The Bullseye frame at 6:05 is so funny I had to stop the video because I was laughing too much. I've seen this movie more than once and I don't know how I missed something so amazing.

Alot of people dont wanna admit it but this movie is what put them onto "bring me too life" hell the dvd had the music video on it

You were an OG if you wanted to see Tobey Maguire Spider-Man and Ben Affleck Daredevil together. P.S. Say it with me now… 🎶WAKE ME UP!🎶

The Elektra movie is SLIGHTLY better than 2004's Catwoman when it comes to superheroine movies, though that's not really an achievement.

I love the absolute Deep cut of playing “a matter of state” from the 70s Spider-Man show, WTF Can you please do a video on that show one day even if it’s such a nothing burger I’d watch it

Who would’ve guessed that Jon Favreau managed to sneak his way into both daredevil universes.

I'm sorry but Elektra training while Evanescence Bring Me To Life played gave young me life, I used to watch that scene on rewind... it was so good... I'm scared to rewatch these movies cause I'm 98% sure they won't hold up well.

7:53 I think it's because blue is less harsh on the eyes to look at when in say a dark theater. It could be a stylistic choice or it could be because they found red to harsh to look at.

Gotta say man for comic book RU-vidrs you’re very unique and I’m always captivated by your videos.

Elodie Yung was PERFECT. Her chemistry of toxic love with Charlie was so satisfying to watch. She was funny too. They better bring her back. DD isn't the same without her ngl. If they recast I'll boycott the MCU.

Dude I’ve been watching your channel for years and I’m so glad you still make content. I also love Daredevil and am so glad you’re doing this video!

I don't care what anyone says, Affleck's Daredevil suit is unironically dope.

Xavier: "I'm not a Spider-man Channel!" Also Xavier: *brings up Spider-man TAS 50 times in a non Spider-man related video*

I’m glad someone finally pointed out how weird it was to name the rapist after Joe Quesada.

The Affleck Daredevil started out realistic with Matt Murdock having to sleep in isolation chamber and take pain killers but then… playground scene 😒

I’m loving these little trips down memory lane you’re doing. These things were my childhood for good and for ill. One thing I gotta ask though: are you gonna include the Marvel animated movies like Ultimate Avengers and Hulk Vs. in this little retrospective? I know Browntable is already kind of doing that and of course his videos are great but I’d love to hear your take on them too

I guess Xavier is doing reviews on every 2000s marvel movie series, so when is fantastic 4 coming

Do you think you could go over One Moment In Time or the whole One More Day Saga? I have mixed feelings over that story because it does feel like they did their best at picking up the shattered pieces, but they ultimately made MJ a worse character. Like they basically nerfed her by saying she wasn't strong enough to be Spider-Man's wife.

Ya know... I have to say Bullseye looks a bit like Kane...

I was watching a video on the Incredible Hulk and their TV movies that tried and failed to spawn spinoffs for Thor, She-Hulk, whoever that pseudo-Black Widow was and Daredevil, complete with interviews with those actors! 1. Bob Duncan was Thor at one point!?! And 2. If the MCU wants to take full advantage of these multiverse storylines, I would do what the Arrowverse did and bring in as many unrelated Marvel actors as possible, including these actors! I never watched either Daredevil project but it would be awesome to give other multiple incarnations of the same character interact, including the Daredevils.

Hey! Sweatpants in Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur was cool!

I recently read the Jason Aaron run of the punisher MAX, I get the feeling jason Aaron was slightly inspired by that take when writing that universes version of bullseye

Gotta respect Affleck for trying out so many superheroes. He played a Superman actor, he can't escape from being Batman, and of course he played a Daredevil that most people dislike more after the Netflix series was made.

xavier it’s been years and i still haven’t forgotten abt the mortal kombat retrospective :(

I think it also really wanted to ape the style of The Crow.

This kid is one of my favorite youtubers. One of my "ooh new upload" channels. Like Matt orchard, jcs, (old funhaus), Mr Sundays movies, super eyepatch wolf. Godzilla mendoza is definitely on the list.

Actually the first mcu was spider man 1,2,3 and the punisher movie where the punished is in the background of 2 when mj left jjs son at the alter.

11:54 That reaction looks genuine. Imagine wearing that thing, yikes!

Yaaaay! Daredevil video is nice to see. My fav Marvel character.

Ben Affleck does have a cameo sorta in a deleted scene from Elektra as like a dream or vision or something

To be fair, even the Netflix Elektra had her critics. She excelled when it was all about her relationship with Matt, but the Hand storyline brought her character down a few notches.

Damm it really do be like, "GodzillaMendoza has upload anything lately, im gonna check the channel" new uploaded 13 days ago. how was I not aware of this? RU-vid fix!

The soundtrack for bens daredevil was awesome

When was Eletrka's first appearance in the ultimate universe? Her outfit in that universe reminds of her outfit in the Daredevil movie.

This video came out on my birthday, thank you Xavier

Sooooo next you doin HULK ??? Please do

If you do Hulk (2003) you HAVE to convince Josh to do it with you.

I love your videos on the 2000s hero movies

I went on my first date with my first ever girlfriend to see this movie in the theater when it came out...and i LOVED IT. I knew as i got older that it wasnt a good movie but it was always an important movie to me.

I would actually subscribe to your patreon for a video on the lessons we can learn from the rami Spider-Man films.

Kingpin was the best part of the film plus the 03 Daredevil mask was comic accurate & better looking than the Netflix version.

I will say that the ben affleck daredevil movie, is my introduction to our man without fear and this is a good retrospective feels nice to pop holes into marvel movies from our early two thousands nostalgia.

While objectively the Netflix show is better, I will always stand by the Directors Cut is underrated and pretty well done. Also Kingpin 2003 and Bulleyes 2003 are near perfect adaptations of the characters there based on.

I never knew that a marvel property for kids would needle drop Childish Gambino thank you for explaining me Mr Mendoza

I'm sure the last thing anyone would expect in a daredevil movie is "wake me up inside" like wtf.

Since you brought it up, can you review the 2003 hulk?

Jennifer garner did the best with what she had, also her premonitions of death and ninja powers came from the hand, which is comics accurate. Also elektra is skilled enough to throw her sais like that lol, do you know her feats?

The only thing I remember about Elektra is that there was a female villain who could make people old or rot... XD

you should check out the strange fantastic four deuoligy from the 2000s and the obscure man thing movie that was trying to open up a werewolf by night universe

11:14 I just gotta say I really love how the editing here makes it look like he started beating up that child XD

I really enjoyed Elektra. I (usually) enjoy slow-burn movies anyway -- Moon, 2001, the original Solaris, etc -- so I found it uniquely interesting for a super-flick. l completely forgot about your ebay store and will take a look. Great video & thank you!!

Ballin without sight

Calin Farrell has come a long way for his super hero movie career.

So much shade is being thrown at the MCU in this vid and the vast majority of it valid. My man.

Sweatpants in Moon Girl and Devil Dino is based as hell, I'd deffo recommend the show if you haven't seen it. It goes way harder than it has a right to be.

Daredevil was definitely one of the movies of all time

Finally, Xavier uploads again after all of these years

Thank you for making my lunch breaks at work enjoyable. I love you papa xavier but please released the original xavier

If you can find it, get the 2 disk extended edition, of this movie. It's not as long as the Director's cut, but does have a bit more footage than the theatrical cut, and is kind of a happy middle ground between the two versions.

I dont feel bad for Quesada since he did One More Day. That on its own deserves to be used by a mean rapost character

Haha I was just thinking about how awesome a new video would be rn and this just appeared!

1:08 that’s one of many reasons I love Spider-Man. He’s the best of both worlds

12:40 Oh Godzilla,if you haven’t seen the rest of Moon girl and Devil Dinosaur you should watch it,plus I heard molecule man is going to appear in season 2.

Another great video Xavier, keep up the great work and I look forward to the next one ❤️

I like how every time I rewatch some of your videos, you post a new one the next day, it's kinda strange now that I think about it.

I don't think that putting sweatpants in moon girl and devil dinosaur was a bad idea. Honestly it was my favorite moment in that episode

Ben Afflek has unspoken rizz. That’s how he bagged and tagged Carmen Electra.

3:03 The few times I watched the film I never realised he was the guy who played Hector.

i’ve been watching every upload for the past 4 years… you’re my fav youtuber

9:16 And the editing makes it look like he uses the jacket to teleport.

Hooray its a good day when you upload

6:53 The fuck is that? got me fucking dying

I like Bullseye and Wilson Fisk, that's it.

I forgot that I saw Elektra until watching this video lol.

Unpopular opinion, but think Typhoid Mary was awesome in IF Season 2.

12:42 That’s so wrong yet hilarious

I loves Bullseye in the movie, best part of the movie. He is just hilariously insane, what kinde is in the comics sometimes as well.

Don't forget the green radar sense from the Trial of the Incredible Hulk TV movie!
