It's already starting this week? Awesome. Over/Under on Daisy "Quake" Johnson (aka Skye) rejoining SHIELD set at 4.5 episodes. I'm taking the under.

Chokes McGee posted:I'm taking the over, so long as "work alongside" does not count "rejoin SHIELD". Hadn't considered that, but fair enough. The new director is obviously George Hammond (of Texas). Any worlds found via portal will be explored for resources, then nuked.

So Ghost Rider's going to be the answer to whatever's in the box, right? Like, that "he burns souls" line isn't a throwaway when there are ghosts around. Also, this season is looking good.

Blazing Ownager posted:It's kind of funny because so far, it looks like an improvement in every possible way to the effectiveness of SHIELD with no indication anyone's really being evil. I really want to see where they're going with it. That would be a great reason for Coulson's demotion, and pretty in character. It's true that there's no indication of evil so far, just hella bureaucracy.

Fitz and Simmons may as well be Rando SHIELD Scientists #1-2 in a MCU movie. They wouldn't need much in the way of an explanation. Daisy could show up in one along with Deathlok and the Netflix Crew for another big fight scene in NY, or in a "call everyone, yes everyone" type of situation. Coulson would need a lot of setup, but if done right, could be good. New Director seems like a candidate to show up in a movie, by reason of being the director.

Slashrat posted:Besides, they were trying to pin the whole thing on inhumans, so it'd be kinda suspect if they went out of their way to avoid anyone but inhumans dying. Also, the more non-inhumans killed, the more deaths are blamed on inhumans.

That was the best reaction Simmons could have had to Aida. And Daisy. And the Watchdogs. Episode was a Simmons Own Zone.

bloodychill posted:It's not clear who the main bad guys are gonna be or what the main conflict will be, other than probably revolving around some conflict between Inhumans and magic powered humans. It might be that the main conflict will be Coulson and friends vs Director Mace. In this case Coulson might end up the "bad guy". He's hilariously tanking the director's attempts at a public SHIELD that isn't widely disliked for doing, well, SHIELD things. Not that the Son of Coul is doing anything evil, just going off to cowboy around any time he leaves the base.

Blazing Ownager posted:What she said wasn't "If you put me in the chair, I will tell them about you" it was "If you put them in the chair, I won't be able to lie about what I now know about you." That's well done blackmail. Just vague enough that she might not be blackmailing the director, but clear enough that they both knew she was.

I'm still enjoying the idea that the cast are the villains to Mace's hero. Coulson has become Fury, the team has become old SHIELD, and Mace is now Old Coulson. The cycle of SHIELD leadership begins anew. I know that's not what they're actually doing.

Why not all three? Cage, Snipes, and Oswalt, all in one episode. Throw in Ron Perlman, because gently caress it.

PunkBoy posted:It's probably imperfect so she's being kept alive to take more scans. Alternate theory: The goal was to not kill anyone, but there was no way she wasn't going to get dismantled or otherwise stopped once SHIELD proper knew what she was up to. Of course, now she probably has to make LMD-PR guy.

Ghost Rider is mostly made of vengeance. I'm not sure super science mind-popping will beat that.

bloodychill posted:Ghost Rider doesn't have a lot of control over his powers so if the desire or need for vengeance is weak, he's just not going to do much. On the other hand, he's unkillable by any means expect maybe some weird divine magical poo poo and he could probably override mjolnir if he needed because the "user rights system" on it is technological (essentially an AI) and simply requires that the demon be able to lift neutronium unaided. With demon magic, the laws of physics can be broken so, yeah. Ghost Rider's strength, powers, and durability are are directly proportional to the amount of vengeance he is attempting to mete out, within the boundaries of "quite a bit tougher than a human" to "can one-shot Galactus". Certain exceptional individuals are immune to his penance stare. flosofl posted:Guys, I have here's my unified theory of Ghost Rider and his powers (see my AV): drat. Same idea, fewer words.

STAC Goat posted:The Marvel universe is filled with heroes and villains who came about because ever since Captain America everyone and their brother has been trying to recreate the formula and it never works. Its just a recurring world theme, really, and as soon as it was determined that Mace wasn't an Inhuman it was inevitable that he was going to be a misguided US military experiment to create their own superhero. Whether they overtly say "Captain America" or not, it all comes back to "drat it, we had a super soldier and we blew it by picking some guy who questions chain of command." Codependent Poster posted:I don't think Coulson was vindictive at all. He just put his foot down in that tactical decisions were his call, like they should have been. Otherwise he was accepting that Mace lied, but did it because he wanted to help. Mace wasn't looking to gain power or be selfish, he wants Inhumans to be treated well and this was an opportunity for that. I DO hope they tell Daisy and the other SHIELD inhumans the score though. They'll figure it out eventually, and kinda deserve to know.
