*** Official Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (2 Viewers)

My guess is powered people/villians. Whatever it is, they've dropped enough hints that I am guessing it's going to be teased/revealed in the season finale and be a focus for next season.

 
Yeah, that Sky fight scene was pretty awesome. Probably too big of a jump from her previous tactical showings (she's basically May now) but still great to watch.

 
I enjoyed season 1 more than most and I have really enjoyed season 2.

Taking Ward off the main cast and making him foil has been solid. He sucked as a "good guy" imo.

The scene in the last episode were he tries to brief the team was very entertaining ("I should have shot him in the face.........yeah")

I rewound this to watch is closer and as far as I could tell Chloe Bennet did almost all of the stunts, but there could have been some camera work.

I also agree the jump in skill set was too high based on what little training she has had and her "gifts" should not have affected that type of fighting.

 
For any fans of Agent of Shield who have not yet seen Avengers 2, do not watch last nights episode. It gives a way a big spoiler in Avengers 2.

 
Nice integration with the movie. Not as mind blowing as CA2 but how could it be, really. :thumbup:

That they defeat Ultron? Not sure that can be considered a spoiler.

Yeah it was a much simpler tie in than cap 2. It was really just theta protocol.

Very solid season overall. I have enjoyed the inhuman arc more than I thought I would.

Not sure where they are going with Ward and Cara. I thought we had seen the last of Ward until next season.

I was referring to post movie. You are right though, the staff had a tie in pre movie.

 
The staff tie in was pretty cool. My son was all like omg dad, check it out! It's the staff that Coulson found in AoS!

Marvel taking over the small screen now! AoS, AC, and the new AoS spin-off will be taking ABC by storm next season!
Click to expand...
between these, Flash, Arrow, Gotham, and I'm sure I'm missing a few, it's a nerd heaven.

looks like the AoS spin off isn't happening.

There will also be another spinoff of Arrow and Flash coming soon. I am still holding out hope for a Firestorm spinoff.

I gotta say, Raina being right threw me. I did not expect JiaYang to deliberately turn things sideways there.

That was a nice twist. I wasn't expecting it either. I kept waiting for Lt. Castillo to pull something nasty and instead he was genuinely there to try and make peace.

Having JiaYang turn bad does enable the writers to get Skye back to Shield eventually.

And great news that the show was picked up. I liked the Agent Carter show too so a good day for the Marvel Universe.

 
Red head multiple Inhuman girl moves into 2nd place on Hottest Women of M:AoS, behind Bobbi.

I kind of liked how our concepts of who were the good guys and who were the bad guys got stood on their head at the end.

 
This show has delivered a few WTF!?! moments this season. Solid season and it's good to see some fx dollars being spent. Looking forward to next year and hopefully a nice Civil War tie in. Not sure of the timing there - will the show be running when the next CA xomes out?

 
What the heck was that blob block thing that swallowed her up? Really cool, although the thought that Fitz could accidentally open that up with a hand slip? Nice security lol.

I'm wondering if it isn't some sort of tie-in to the alien symbiote to begin setting up Spidey's entrance into this Marvel Universe? It only reacts to "inhumans", so does that set Simmons for a transformation next season?

That was my immediate reaction as well.

:excited:

 
I hope they resist the urge to give any other current members of the team powers. I was afraid they were going that way with Mack when he went to the HVAC room... that his exposure to the Kree defense system that took his body over would cause him to react with the terrigen mist somehow.

 
Why did Coulson start turning to ash when holding the crystal? I thought with his Kree blood transfusion he should have been fine.

Poor *******. Dies getting stabbed in the heart. Fury brings him back with Kree blood and reworking his brain. Now he loses his hand.

 
I really enjoyed the finale. I thought this season was terrific.

I know a lot of people don't care for Ward but I really like how his character has evolved. It'll be interesting to see where they take him next as the apparent new leader of Hydra.

Coulson getting Luke Skywalker'd was a shock. Didn't see that one coming. But he's such a fanboy I bet deep down he loves the connection.

Seems like we're inching closer to a true #FitzSimmons pairing but I'm not giving up hope for #SkyeSimmons. That would be truly magical television.

I've seen this part before. Later on Nick Fury gives him a new silver hand for being such a loyal comrade.

Or, maybe that was Voldemort.

 
Very enjoyable season. I liked the first season but this was better almost across the board.

We all feared they were going to turn Ward "good" but they have handled his character perfectly.

 
I am not so much worried about turning Ward good, I am just sick of his character. Can they make him escape situations or get the upper hand by making all of the other high level operatives look any less competent? It reaches the point of being ludicrous to the point, for me, where it has detracted from the story. He needs gone, preferably killed by Fitz or Simmons to gain the closure he seems to love.

That was my question as well.

 
The red-head Inhuman that I liked, character name is Alisha, and actress is Alicia Vela-Bailey. Google images a little disappointing.

Stunt woman apparently, she was Zoe Saldana's stunt double in Avatar and Milla Jovovich's in Ultraviolet, amongst a lot of other movies.

Great finale. I'm liking this show more and more as it progresses. It also never disappoints in the eye candy department.

The more I think about this, the more the Moonstone angle fits in here. If the Kree Stone was created to attack/remove Inhumans, than it bonding with Simmons makes sense - and could be a new angle used to create the Moonstone character. I don't think there is any cannon in the Marvel Ultimate universe as to how Moonstone came to be. Moonstone was created by Kree Stone in comic lore, and this kind of fits into that puzzle (successful psychologist turns villian/hero/villian/hero due to an alien stone that provides powers to the user of its choosing).

She was hot, but Skye/Daisy is the hottest lady on the show, by a country mile.

In my opinion it's Bobbi and then Simmons, not sure how you could say Skye is a country mile ahead.

I'm shocked that a villain in a comic book story would be able to do this.

He has a point though. Anytime I see any of the regulars go on a mission with other SHIELD "agents" I tell my wife, those guys are dead. They are basically "Red Shirts".

I like Simmons, but I think Bobbi and Skye are on another level. I can see why some prefer her, but the other two are more universally hot.

I think Skye from just her face is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.

But there is something about her lower half that seems off to me. I can't figure out what it is but her shape just looks slightly off when they show her from a distance. It might be her torso lenth vs her leg length.

She is/was also Adrianne Palicki's stunt double on MAOS, part of how she got "found" for the role.

 
I am a big fan of Marvel's film work so I finally sat down and watched the first two episodes of season one. It didn't really inspire me to watch episode 3.

So at what point does it turn the corner and become awesome?
