The article was pretty poorly written. I just did some major revising. The article lacks of positive reviews of the film. And the 2nd worst movie tag is just an opinion and gives the reader a wrong idea of the movie
Is there no article or section about the soundtrack?
Are there any plans for a sequel to this film? After all, the ending was rather ambiguous, and the Elektra film isn't really a part of the Daredevil continuity. BugEyedMonster 03:06, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Is Elektra (2005) even intended to be in the same universe as Daredevil? Other than the same actress playing the same character it seems to have absolutely no connection to this film. No shared backstory, no mention etc. -- 2605:A000:1E02:C05D:7535:ACC4:D26E:FDE9 ( talk) 00:39, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
I always thought that daredevil first appeared as a vigilante in a spiderman comic. Spiderman thought he was a bad guy and was after daredevil for sometime. After realising that Daredevil was in fact a good guy who just had not-so-good tactics, they eventually became friends and spiderman convinced daredevil to change his methods. This is very similar to the movie only without spiderman. I wanna see daredevil and spiderman together. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.67.7.151 ( talk) 16:38, 11 May 2007 (UTC).
Not just any form of it. You can watch that cartoon, "Daredevil vs. Spider-Man", but it would be cool if we could see Ben Affleck and Tobey Maguire together.
The Kingpin kills the whole family. So he personally killed Jack Murdock. Why did he let Matt live? Even in the present, Kingpin knows that "The blind lawyer from Hell's Kicten" is the son of Jack "The Devil" Murdock. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.78.43.180 ( talk) 14:26, 8 May 2007 (UTC).
Because when he killed Matt's father, he wasn't the Kingpin he was basically just a mob boss, and he only kills families as the Kingpin. Make sense?-- 76.23.230.214 02:13, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Oh, I get it now. Kingpin said to Matt "I was walking for 'Follin' at the time". Follin was the old guy that told Jack to lose the fight. At that time Kingpin was just another guy. It wasn't til later when he became the big doss!
The following scenes were deleted that were featured in the PG-13 cut of the film:
The confession booth scenes between Father Steven and Matt Murdock. The love scene between Elektra and Matt Murdock (Ironically, some critics had praised the realism of this scene, in which Matt would follow his desire rather than vacuously fighting crime). The scene where Elektra and Matt walk through New York and briefly discuss their origins The look on Elektra's face when Bullseye stabs her. The scene where Matt is told by Urich how Elektra is a target of the Kingpin, it is replaced with him learning this from a corrupt cop.
Does this simply mean that these scenes were featured in the theatrical version but not in the director's cut? I'm sorry but for some reason this baffles me... Ultimatemarvel 13:42, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

here's the 'trivia list', let's get it off the main page and incorporate what actually matters, leave the rest. ThuranX ( talk) 05:14, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
In addition to stripping out Numerous trivia lists, I'm hoping to turn this into a decent article. Not GA or FA, but certainly a decent article, to at least fit in with all the well done Marvel films and Comics films in general. To that end, I'm starting a section with various problems to be fixed. If you add to the list, please sign the adds, so we can find you to check if we've fixed it, wher doubt might otherwise show. ThuranX ( talk) 01:32, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Can we get a source for when the rights revert? thanks. ThuranX ( talk) 04:36, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone know how long Fox will have the copyrights to daredevil and characters tied up? Where could I find out this info? The Spectacular Spiderman cartoon on right now doesn't feature Kingpin because the cartoon airs on CW and Fox still has the tv and film rights for Kingpin tied up.---Thurs.

While no solid information is readily available, various statements made regarding the upcoming reboot from Regency Films indicates that if Fox doesn't get a new film started within ten years, the license will revert back to Marvel. Since the first film was very profitable for Fox (if not particularly well recieved by fans), they will likely begin filming in 2012. Fox did the same thing this year with Ghost Rider, whose license was also about to expire. 97.93.231.215 ( talk) 00:30, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
This article needs the B-Class checklist filled in to remain a B-Class article for the Comics WikiProject. If the checklist is not filled in by 7th August this article will be re-assessed as C-Class. The checklist should be filled out referencing the guidance given at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment/B-Class criteria. For further details please contact the Comics WikiProject.

An IP keeps insisting on adding flowery prose about the genius of a watch company in creating a vaguely tied in watch. Unfortunately, the material is not sourced to an acceptable source, (the IP uses the product's website page, a primary source), and tie in products aren't notable in general, otherwise we'd have screenlengths of nonsense about beach towels handcrafted by indonesian child labor, mexican factory produced plastic toys, and so on. The IP hasn't asserted notability. UNless he can do so, the material should not be added. ThuranX ( talk) 04:14, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
Added to marketing section. The source information is very strong, and the information is from major marketing effort that was tied into the film. I do not use the products website page as a primary source, but instead use an article from the marketing journal American Time.( To be honest while researching that was originally a primary source) As a secondary source I do use a link to link from Hamilton Watch Company that shows the presence of the watch in the movie, as well as marketing presence in numerous other Marvel movies including both Fantastic Four movies, as well as Spiderman II. I am including the link to primary source and secondary source information. Please help me with a rewrite if needed. The product is no longer for sale, was only for sale while the movie was playing and has long since become a part of movie history. The information is notable for numerous reasons, primarily because it involved the creation of a very specific prop piece that was a integral part of the movies plot. This plot piece was tied into a major marketing campaign. http://www.allbusiness.com/services/museums-art-galleries-botanical-zoological/4359100-1.html http://www.hamiltonwatch.com/webapp/en-us/hamilton/movie-star.aspx User:Wooglins 12:55, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
Further, you didn't use the website as a 'secondary source',meaning material written about the subject by a reliable source, using and assessing primary sources, but as a 'second citation', meaning you had one, and added another. The two are different. read WP:RS for more. ThuranX ( talk) 20:21, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Hey guys, I wanna work on the Director's Cut section but the only sources I keep coming across are reviews. If anyone can help me get sources on the release information (enough to at least cover what's written) it'd be greatly appreciated! -- Harish ( Talk) - 23:52, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Ok currently on the article the lengths of the cuts are "theatrical 107 min. Director's 127 min.". However I've been on this article in the past and i know that the cits once read 108 theatrical and 138 director's. Also it states at the top that the Director's Cut offered 30 minutes of additional footage. If you do that math based on the current article, it doesn't add up. Also I've seen the theatrical cut and it's 108 minutes. So what happened? I just need some clearification here. MrInhibitor ( talk) 03:33, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
Actually never mind the theatrical cut bit I mentioned above, it's actually 103 minutes and the article has it right. So that leaves my question's of the Director's cut. How is it only 24 minutes longer when it adds over 30 minutes of additional fottage? MrInhibitor ( talk) 01:38, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
Things were cut from the original version, as well as added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.60.108.65 ( talk) 17:52, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

The plot summary is inaccurate. Elektra is alive, as hinted at in the end of the film and shown in the spinoff Elektra. The article says Bullseye killed her.
This assertion showed up a few days ago, but I do not believe that this is yet the case. My understanding is Fox had a 7 year option, so they have until the end of the year to produce a new Daredevil movie, or else then they revert. I'm happy to be proved wrong by anyone with a source on this. Otherwise I'm going to schedule this for deletion by Feb 1. Whillice ( talk) 20:44, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
Afleck said he wouldn't don a costume any time soon as noted on the daredevil page. Now afleck is casted as the batman.

This topic pretty clearly has strong national ties to the US, considering that this is a US-made film. Therefor US customary units are primary, as specified by WP:UNITS and WP:STRONGNAT. I am correcting this. DES (talk) DESiegel Contribs 03:44, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
