Official Plot Synopsis

Didn’t anyone over at Fox think it was a weird idea to make a spinoff from a failed superhero movie? And Brody don’t even think about quoting me Box Office numbers, I don’t care. Daredevil sucked and the whole world knows it. Even Fox knows it since they didn’t think it was good enough to make a sequel, but it was apparently good enough to spawn a spinoff called Elektra.
Elektra hits theaters in January 2005 with the world’s most overrated geek love Jennifer Garner in tow as she reprises her Daredevil role as Elektra. Elektra is that Greek girl whose last name sounds like a tasty food that in a perfect world, would always come in a hat. Is Jennifer a decent actor? I guess so. Does she resemble the Pink Ranger? Of course. Can she do karate like the Pink Ranger? Hell yes. Does she have the beady eyes of a shaved weasel and the shoulders of a transvestite linebacker? Yes, and for some reason all that only stands out more when she’s wearing one of her stupid wigs.
I don’t hate Jennifer Garner, I just don’t get all the obsessive love for he. She could win me over in Elektra though, after all, mediocre though Daredevil was even I’ll admit she was likely one of the best things about it. That and the music by a band that is now far to popular for me to continue to like. It’s not cool to like music that is popular you know. Unless the person singing the music is really hot. Then you can have pictures of the person singing the music but cannot like the music itself.
Jennifer Garner cannot sing, but she can do fake martial arts. Look for a lot of that in 2005.
Are you excited for Elektra?
