Kinda dissapointed with the reveal that Quake blew up the earth, I was hoping that part tied into Infinity War and Thanos did it. I GUESS she coulda done it trying to kill Thanos. That's canon until proven otherwise Kickass premiere all the same though. When the creepy perfection leader guy had his back to the camera I thought for a sec he'd turn around and it would be a blue faced Fitz EDIT: lmao that lady has balls and Yondu has a shaft. I love it. bring back old gbs fucked around with this message at 06:13 on Dec 2, 2017 |

New theory — I’ve been trying to figure out what threat would be big enough for Quake to blow up the planet, and right now my inner fanboy wants it to be Graviton finally making his return. Likely? Obviously not. But a man can dream.

I'm not even gonna touch time paradoxes here but I'm not 100% sold on Quake blowing up the planet. That seems like the sort of plot device meant to distract us from something else and the guy who told us is very unreliable since that's just him "piecing things together". Either way I'm very curious to find out about how Fitz is going to save everyone else, again.

Hmm. This turned a little bit into Firefly and I'm not super sure if I'm completely into that. (I'm super into Firefly but I don't know if that aesthetic mixes too well with SHIELD) Well, looking forward to the crazy poo poo coming next either way.

Moreover, how was Daisy supposed to blow up the planet, or do anything at all, while being frozen and zapped through time with the rest? Did they get up to something we haven't seen and have their memories wiped between the diner and the time travel? On another note, this premiere had a shotgun and Kree axes. I hope Mack can find some duct tape.

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:Jemma how are you still this stupid after so many seasons. Daisy too. Keep stirring poo poo up before you even get a grasp of the situation lol Jemma knows she's one of the most powerful entities in the MCU, combining plot armor, TV show scientist powers, also TV shows scientist powers scaled to being in a super-hero universe, being genre-savvy enough to hide them when needed, ability to outsmart/defend herself from field agents, and at this point they all suffer severe survivor's bias + paranoia (like the one that they're in the framework) + delusions that they can get away with whatever because in her own words this isn't new to her and at least this time it's not Cthulhu. Plus they have a message from the other most powerful entity in the MCU, Fitz, that he's fully aware of what's going on and by the end of this season they'll be like Batman, Iron-Man and BBC's Sherlock combined if they could regularly tear holes into space-time to save whomever they see fit. They already act stupid, pull magical scientific solutions out of nowhere and claim it's not magic, and might have blown up the world accidentally - at this point they're at most a few drinks away from being Rick.

We have to assume at some point they're going to end up going back in time to try and fix what happened, that just seems like a given. My guess is the first half of the season will be on the Lighthouse trying to escape/find a portal, and the second back on Earth trying to put right what once went wrong. The confusing part is why the alien g-man dude sent them forward in time in the first place, was that part of Virgil's plan? The way he was talking made it sound like they were already the saviours of Earth somehow but then how would he even know when in this timeline Earth was destroyed and Daisy got the blame? Uhhh

I wouldn't bet on SWORD showing up as some have suggested, if only because it seems like that's where Legion is going.

Couple that with Tess saying everyone's got their own story of how it "really" happened.

I think Fitz started the rumor that SHIELD would save the day. Virgil had the note after all. Didn't we already go through "Daisy is too powerful!!!" in season 2? Which was reduced to "her power fucks up her arms if she doesn't wear her gloves" by season 4. We haven't seen any indications so far that her power is Jean Grey levels of dangerous. Does she have her gloves? I wasn't paying attention to that in the broadcast.

Huh, I didn't really enjoy that... It's probably the dark dystopian mood lighting. Not a big fan of that. But then again, that's a cost cutting measure, so whatever. Maybe it will be fun again. I miss Aida.

If the show wanted to cut costs, why would they scrap the shield base set that they have been using the last few seasons? Not to mention that a lot of work went into making those spaceships. I hope they continue dividing the season into parts, i would hate it if Fitz was going to be kept away from the rest of the cast until the end.

Maybe this is the ultimate goal of the skinman who sent the team to the future with the white monolith: get Fitz to have to create a working time machine. The bastards found out he could recreate a portal to another world, so they are perfecting the technique of Fitzism.

I’m guessing a two-parter, at least: Part 1 to get the team back to their own time, part 2 to deal with whatever caused Daisy (if it was Daisy) to destroy the planet in the first place.

I'm not convinced that Daisy blew up the planet because she has never demonstrated that level of power and the only person saying that is a guy who just pieced together tiny bits of history. For all we know, he got some Watchdog propaganda about the danger of inhumans and extrapolated. Also, if Fitz was allowed to talk to MCU film characters, he could just ask Dr. Strange to solve this whole mess in about 5 minutes.

I'm guessing there was a fight with a bad guy (Graviton most likely) that causes some kind of vibrational feedback loop that gets stronger and stronger until it cracks the planet open like a coconut

I'm doubting Quake destroyed the Earth. Deek even said he had to piece together parts of history to understand what happened.

Didn’t they make a kind of big deal in the third season that it would be possible to see the future, but you couldn’t change anything? I mean, I don’t really care, but it is a little sloppy.

Little bit different seeing the future and not doing anything, and being Fitz. Besides... comics have a habit of contradicting themselves, so at least its canon.

I can't make any guesses on what is going on at all, but i'm sure Daisy didn't destroy the earth, as there is a reason the Kree A) showed up so quickly B) Don't want history to be known C) have some motive in keeping humans down and stupid. Like there has to be a reason humans survived and it looks like it was prepared for the destruction of earth. Also, full disclosure, sexy blue ladies
