I'm not sure I agree. For a start, Han Solo wasn't a ladies man, and he wasn't particularly personable. Whereas much was made ofthe point that Starlord was a ladies man, to the point he couldn't remember his lovers names. Because that is so very original and not at all sexist. If anything your description of comic Starlord sounds more like Han Solo than Pratt's Starlord.

Nevertheless, we're most likely just going to finish it tomorrow because I don't want to wait any longer to see how it ends.

I'm only 6 episodes in but I'd agree. Season two of Daredevil has somewhat spoilt season one for me, but Luke Cage has MUCH more interesting characters all around and a more coherent story. Also Mariah using her criminal cousin to do good for her community is much more compelling than Wilson "My daddy was horrible" Fisk.
