<\/p>\nShout outs to RZA on the directorial success of Episode 6 in Marvel’s newest show on Netflix, Ironfist. Episode 6, titled Immortal Emerges From Cave, is arguably one of the better episodes in what was, not a very well received show. After the huge success of DareDevil, Jessica Jones, a second Season of Dare Devil that featured Punisher and Electra and a very hip hop influenced Luke Cage show, many critics felt Ironfist was a disappointment.<\/p>\n
As a actual fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe I can say that I watched Ironfist, and it wasn’t nearly as bad as the critics have said. The show could have been better, however none of us really know where they are going with the character. I do have a few ideas on how Ironfist could have been better. That would be a conversation for a different place and time.<\/p>\n
In episode 6, Immortal Emerges From Cave (Spoilers for those who have not seen the show), the lead character, Danny Rand, takes on several challengers. There is a twist that you won’t see coming, and a lot of interesting information is revealed. In my mind, this is why a lot of viewers were disappointed with the show. We find out, that this is not a well-trained Ironfist. There is a lot more to his story, and ‘training’ isn’t complete.<\/p>\n
Marvel has been an influence on several members of Wu Tang Clan. Ghostface Killah goes by the alias Tony Stark.\u00a0 It fits when you understand the comic book character. He’s a brash, billionaire with expensive tastes. Ironman is also one of the greatest heroes in Marvel’s fictional story.\u00a0 In so many ways, Wu Tang Clan is a combination of Kung Fu, and Marvel Comics, expressed through hip hop music.\u00a0 As a group, they have blessed the culture in so many ways.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, his actual directorial debut came in 2012 with\u00a0 “The Man With the Iron Fists”.<\/em><\/p>\n While this film had no connection to Marvel, or the Ironfist character, this kung fu story was probably influenced in some way. He infused the film with music that he produced, and it’s actually considered to be a pretty good film in Martial Arts circles.\u00a0 It’s ‘Tarentino-like’ in some ways, but shows off RZA’s ability to direct quality.\u00a0 That’s one thing that all of Marvel’s Netflix shows have continued to deliver. The best directors in the film industry are hired to work on their shows.\u00a0 RZA, going from hip hop producer to film director is inspirational!<\/p>\n RZA continues to inspire as he continually uses his creative juices in several ways. He was also very influential in the making of the ‘playlist’ that Danny Rand listened to in Ironfist. (Danny Rand is the main character, who was stranded after his families plane crashed in the Himalayas around the 90’s.).\u00a0 The show opens up, with “So Fresh, So Clean” by Outkast<\/a>, and throughout the series are songs that take us back to 90’s hip hop.\u00a0 There is a scene later in the season, where Claire Temple mentions some of the artists on his playlist.\u00a0 But, more about that, at another time. Shout outs to RZA for this accomplishment.<\/strong><\/p>\n https:\/\/youtu.be\/sSfLYdP4POQ<\/p>\n (This Live Reaction video to IronFist, Episode 6, the RZA directed, Immortal Emerges From Cave is not related to AuthorityHop.com.
