  It's not gonna be a massive budget - it will be dwared by Agents of Shield. But it doesn't need it. Daredevil doesn't have to be full of flashy special effects. I'd guess at there being something to show us his vision (like they did in the film with the scene on the rooftop in the rain) but can't see much else needed.

  They're gonna some a decent budget to pull off the fight scenes that are surely gonna be involved, but it's probably gonna be a bit darker than other marvel stuff and will be less flashy.

  It could be interesting to see how all of these series will be. Though they are trying to use lesser known characters except for Daredevil, which could possibly hurt the shows. Daredevil could be good and oof the characters they chose he is the only one who's series I would have any interest in.

  Daredevil will no doubt be a small show comparatively to Agents of Shield, they won't need too many flashy effects, Daredevil being a character that fights more regular villians than super powered ones but then it would depend on how much faith Netflix have in the shows doing well for how much budget they are willing to give.

  I think the show might be similar to arrow, but with less teen drama elements to it. I could see it being really dark and gritty. If it's well written and has the right tone it could be quality.

  Well based on everything they've said far the main focus will be fighting street level criminals, supposedly all the netflix series will link to a crossover (the defenders).
  I'd imagine due to it being on Netflix it might get away with a higher level of violence than Agents of Shield, possibly similar in tone to Arrow but may be able to get away with a little more.

  I'd happily take a less teeny version of Arrow.
  It's the same kinda thing - a street level vigilante against (mostly) non-powered villians. I do have to be honest that I'm most excited by the idea of these series all joining together for a Defenders series.

  I agree there thisscotsman, the defenders sounds like it will be really good, I imagine if the individual shows and Defenders are all popular that the characters will likely end up appearing in one of the films as well.
  I get the feeling Coulson may have minor parts in each of the series too, given the role he's taken on at the end of series 1 of Agents of Shield.

  I'd be hoping at the start that there isn't any ties to the Agents Of Shield but I guess it depends on what premise they take for the shows. If it jumps in each series like they've had their abilities for awhile - then maybe no need for shield cause they are already "established" in their universe.
  I don't want for Coulson appearances with each time the hero's are "proving they are worthy" type shite.

  I think that if Coulson does appear it would be a brief cameo, either just to show that he (in his new position, trying to avoid spoilers), is aware of what's going on, not neccesarily a starring role. But then it would depend if they approach it as if it's Daredevil (and the characters in the other shows) are just starting out or have been at it a while.
