Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

[Usagi Pilgrim]

I found one of the articles I was referring to, earlier. It's dated May 23 & is on SHH.

“We both have them,” Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige told SuperHeroHype of the character rights last summer. “There’s a specific arrangement with those two characters that would allow us to use them with ‘Avengers,’ but not discuss or reference their mutant or Magneto-related lineage. They can use them as mutants and as Magneto’s relatives, but cannot have anything to do with ‘The Avengers.’”

Just giving some reference for what I had said earlier.

This is the president of Marvel Studios & he's saying that even though they're mutants, the deal with FOX says that mutants can't be mentioned.

On another note, for the Marvel fans amongst us, did you catch the three name-drops?

I'm sure everyone caught Bucky Barnes' name.

Donnie Gill, the super-smart guy that survived the ice-storm, is better known as a member of Iron Man's rogue's gallery named Blizzard.

Also, the crack about "falling asleep in Doctor Vaughn's history class"? Possible allusion to Wendell Vaughn?

I had to go back and re watch for that, but pretty cool!

Did anyone else notice the security guards' patches were from Firefly?

I kept expecting agent coulson's name to be on the wall of heros.

After watching the first ten or so episodes of this show, I've noticed a lack of genuine character development. Anyone else noticed this?

Deathlok Sets His Sights on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. | News | Marvel.com

How I wish somehow, someway, that the X-Universe could be a part of this show after this announcement since the latest Deathlok was involved with X-Force. And dare I predict a possible Fantomex appearance can be done without having to reference Sentinels, mutants or the Weapon Plus program.

 

[Seabass]

A properly done Fantomex in either of the franchises would be amazing. X-Force movie would be the easiest option though

J August Richards as Deathlok.....ugh I foresee epic fails and Godzilla facepalms in the shows future

Was last night's episode a re-run? The DVR recorded "The Hub" s1ep7... I thought the broadcast was going to be the new episode with Stan Lee?.

 

[Russ257]

it was a rerun.

 

[The Mad Professor]

Next week is a new episode.

 

[Argonaut]

Found something interesting, and don't know if it's been brought up yet. "Claire Voyant" is actually a Marvel character from the '40s. She was an antiheroine called Black Widow (unrelated to Natasha Romanoff) who worked for Satan. Black Widow (Claire Voyant) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wow! Great find.

That dude is too skinny to be Deathlok in any form. They're all bulky ex soldiers in the comics. Dude looks like he belongs on DC show on the CW.

If we cast people solely based on approximate size of the character, Magneto would have been played by Rutger Hauer and Wolverine would've been played by Robin Williams.

I think the clairvoyant is overrated. Since Coulson did not know what happened in "Tahiti", why didn't the clairvoyant just read the minds of the surgeons that worked on him?

 

[TheDodgeMan]

I sure wish they'd stop doing this 2 weeks on 2 weeks off thing. It really pisses me off.

 

[Fly4v]

Stan's rant!

 

[rodneyfaile]

Wow!

That was a great episode!

I love the story told from different perspectives. The mood seemed more serious, and everyone on the team seemed more competent.

What lengths will Coulson go to save Sky? The shoe is on the other foot.

 

[drcraig13]

A great episode. There might be salvation for this show yet.

 

[SigsegV]

Well that was unexpected. Now we just have to wait a month for the next episode. What is up with this schedule?
