They've teased and hyped May's cavalry incident so much. I feel like there is no powered foe she could face that's worth this much build up who wouldn't be better suited for a role in a movie. They are manufacturing disappointment for the inevitable reveal next episode.

At this point it'd make narrative sense if The Cargo on the Iliad was the super that May took down.

Are the props for the fake-cube and real-cube actually different? When I watched the episode, it looked like you could visually tell them apart, like the real Toolbox has symbols and poo poo on the side and the fake one is just blank. Like specifically in the last two scenes, where Jemma is saying "it's just junk" it looks all blank, and then when Fitz looks at his it looked fancier. Anyone have the episode handy and can confirm/deny?

Has the show established how long ago the cavalry incident occurred? I know it supposed to be a while before the Avengers but like a year or 10 or 20?

How do you spin off a < 2 year old show that only recently got enough momentum to start spinning itself? I'd guess they're thinking maybe Inhumans show? No one really wants a 3rd iteration on the MCU procedurals after Agent C and Agent OS. I'm not coming up with any Shield characters like Carter that could handle a solo show.

Honestly surprised by this, given both the timing (they managed to keep this secret until a month before upfronts?) and the middling ratings for ABC's two Marvel shows to date. Wonder if we're getting this instead of Agent Carter S2.

XboxPants posted:Probably, unless they're doing a Deathlok series, which would be pretty dumb. I guess we have a few episodes left for them to backdoor pilot something else. They sort of say that outright in the EW link: quote:We don’t know is which characters from the current series will be moving over to the proposed spinoff – so let the speculation being on that. There won’t be an implanted pilot episode this season directly setting up the spinoff, either (like how CW launched The Flashout of Arrow). However, story elements that are still to come on SHIELD this year will be used to lay the groundwork for the potential new series. So by the end of the season – assuming the details for this project haven’t already leaked, which is rather unlikely – the spinoff concept should be clear.

If we're fielding dreams of what we want to see for a spinoff; I personally would love to see a Nick Fury show set in the pre-Modern Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline . Have it detail his rise to SHIELD director in Cold War era world politics and him teaming up with young fresh faced Coulson if you want to tie it into Agents of Shield.

Marvel's Agents of Real S.H.I.E.L.D. It's basically just all the main characters sitting around on the aircraft carrier. "So, what do you think Coulson's doing now?" "I don't know. Mack, why don't you go check on him?"

I've kind of always been a fan of Richards since his Gunn days, but I may be blind to his flaws because that's back when I was a college freshman and I already imprinted my opinion at that point.

It would work if something happened a lot more Inhumans started getting triggered. Maybe some more of those diviners get out there into the populace or something. Probably not a full-scale Terrigen Bomb Over New York event, but enough so that they have a small handful of characters that could be learning at the not-Xavier's school.

They say the kernel idea for the spin-off isn't yet in the show, so there's SOMETHING coming in the next few episodes that we don't know anything about yet. That said, I've been re-watching the show from the beginning for the first time since the series started. Pretty damned good with knowing what comes later on, I must say. Every single thing Garrett does pans out, along with Ward doing things like trying to kill May even after Lorelei had been collared. Love this show.

Daredevil's tone seems super different from SHIELD. Like it's trying to be a gritty crime drama, or took it's influence from The Dark Knight franchise instead of the Marvel universe.

It's entirely possible that she's been hanging around for hundreds of years. Doesn't discount your point, but it may have happened before terrigenesis was ritualized in the "old school" way.
