nelson posted:Hopefully ABC will renew it, but if they don't I hope one of the streaming companies decides to continue it. The real bummer is 90% of the stand-off MCU vs AOS was because of Coulson and how much Whedon hated that. With Whedon gone, it's possible that could change, but yeah. The show was clearly divorced and moved into a one-way tie-in with the MCU where the Netflix series, having a much smoother start, are very likely to take that cake. Plus Netflix and Marvel are really linked now so despite the fact ABC is a Disney network, it's odd. Now, the one thing going in it's favor is it is a way to keep shouting the word Marvel over and over onto TV. Disney uses a lot of the shows on ABC for advertising their stuff; they have gone out of their way to make sure characters drop Star Wars references and Marvel references throughout every bit of media they own for the brand. They may want to keep something Marvel related on ABC merely to keep the name being said.

The most annoying thing about it is that inhumans never come up on the Netflix series or the movies, which cuts the show off from the MCU even harder. Like seriously a few lines of people mistaking Jessica Jones for an inhuman for example would have done wonders. At this point the show finale should be them finding they are 1-dimension over from the actual MCU.

It sucks they never got to do the finale for Farscape, but that movie they did is worth a watch if you thought the show ending was hilarious. They did have plans for another season so it was kind of like stuffing a whole season into a mini-series, but..

He does note that he got a "quick look at the Darkhold" which is what's driving him to go to this extreme, but even now, he seems to really not be going the way of Eli, really trying to not get people killed though he's obviously in too deep. I like his character a lot, I have to admit, and I really want him to have some kind of redemption. That said I would bet money that real May might die this season.

Spergatory posted:Radcliff definitely still has strong SHIELD sympathies. The most interesting thing about him at this point is that he still thinks he can take the moral high ground. He genuinely believes himself to be the good guy in a way that none of the other SHIELD antagonists over the years really have. While I suspect the superior will kill him for not being a "SIMPLE MAN" I honestly like Radcliff a lot, and want to see him redeem himself before the end. I have a soft spot for mad scientists who really are trying to do good through extremely bad ways. If they have another season they should get Jeffry Combs to stop by. No movie or show is not improved by that. ED: Then again Qyburn on Game of Thrones was one of my favorite characters almost immediately. The show version not the book version.

I have to say, if you want to kill off a villain you've been building abruptly, that was such a satisfying way to do it. The chain of events in that office just kept getting better. Also I'm calling it now: The Superior gets Mace's armor and syrum injector. He JUST got it only to be captured, and that would let the superior stand up to inhumans without actually being one. There's no way he's not going to do something with it. LividLiquid posted:I really like this show. I really hope it gets another season. So many people just won't give it a chance after season 1's slow start. Open Source Idiom posted:I wonder if they're going to find some way to bring her back, even if it's just flashbacks, given her brother's still a massive unresolved plot thread. Given she died by an inhuman, and that might come out eventually, it's likely they'll end up needing him to resolve the overall plot. So you're probably right. Also don't forget, when he woke up, he saw a bomb go off and kill a woman who looked like she was in India. I'm fairly certain he's one of those multi-powered characters, that seemed like something that'll definitely come back. It also explains why he was cocooned for so long, if he's going to end up with like 20 powers. Blazing Ownager fucked around with this message at 02:22 on Feb 9, 2017 |

X-O posted:The mechanics of it aren't what bother me. It's the crutch of having it be a constant part of the show. And with those writers a terrible part. Time travel can be handled well. Really well in fact, 12 Monkeys and Travelers are current shows that are based entirely on it and they're great shows. The Flash writers are just really terrible at it. The best time travel stories are the ones that send someone back in time without a clear idea of where they are or the situation, and have it be out of their control. It's pretty much the best way to avoid the paradox problems. If the person went back completely unprepared, the only paradoxes would come from future knowledge. If they don't have much, it doesn't shatter the story. Obviously there are other great ways to use it (like 12 Monkeys) but the above is the only kind of story that doesn't make your brain explode. Now that I think of it that does kind of make Army of Darkness one of the least paradox-prone time travel movies to exist. Ash literally never did a single thing in the past that changed his future and he didn't intend to go back in the first place, so "fixing things" wouldn't make any impact on him still going back. Never really thought about it before.

STAC Goat posted:I genuinely like that. I never bought into "The Superior" as the big bad so I love the way his pretty "meh" motivation, plan, and story just got dismissed out of hand by Caulson and then he turned him over to Daisy. Because the Watchdogs have always been more of a villain for Daisy and Radcliffe, Aida, and the LMDs are way more of a serious problem than they ever were. I was a little disappointed Daisy didn't just keep hammering him with quakes until he shattered like Humpty Dumpty, though. The show is usually pretty good about avoiding the "leave our enemies just sitting around to come after us again" poo poo, and after she floored him she just .. walked off and didn't worry about it later. Also it occurred to me there could be a huge misdirect still here: What if nobody was replaced, and Fitz was actually taken by Aida when he was alone, and everything so far has been a simulation within the Framework to get information from him? STAC Goat posted:This show is just big on misdirection so you always kind of expect it when they leave a door open. Which also gives them a great reason to occasionally leave a door slightly ajar just to keep people guessing even if there's nothing at all to it. Yeah I'm totally going to play my long shot. If Fitz pulls out every trick he knows to get inside Shield and assume control from his "hijacked" allies, Radcliff will get all that information too.

Leaving the bad guy there without checking if he was dead was just a gross oversight, especially for Daisy, who has a personal vendetta against Watchdogs. I agree with everyone who really liked the episode, but I totally agree with you. That outright bugged me. I would have overlooked it if the superior was captured at the end, but KO'ing the #1 inhuman murderer and then just walking away was a real jolt of "Really? REALLY?" It probably bugs me more because the show avoids that cliche really well so it felt even more out of place.

twistedmentat posted:Was Radcliff straight up killed or is he now trapped in the Matrix? Dead as disco, at least in body. The whole point was his mind is now in the framework, so he's really "alive" in a way, but his body won't be. Thus he's no longer a threat to the framework (in Aida's eyes) as he's apart of it. I'm not so sure that's true though. Radcliffe was a bit of an rear end in a top hat, but things went way further than he wanted.

counterfeitsaint posted:Network TV seems to be getting aggressively shittier this year. Every network show I watch has had multiple month+ long breaks, AoS, Bob's Burgers, Lucifer. It's like they're upset that their slide into irrelevance isn't going fast enough and actively want to push people towards better sources of media even faster. Maybe they're really doing us all a favor. The fact the networks aren't reorganizing into primarily streaming companies that also air TV yet is baffling. Network TV is dead. The more they claw in and try to keep it going, the more it's going to tear the gently caress apart. Streaming is the future and finally the market agrees with that. ED: They really need to look at HBO Go. It's a perfect example of how to make the transition. Also I think the fact the golden era of TV is rising at the same time that network TV is dying is very, very linked. Network involvement has hurt shows for too long and I will forever hold that traditional TV ratings are INCREDIBLE bullshit, mathematically; the sample size is both too small, and leans too heavily on audiences that would actually want to gently caress with a ratings box.

HUGE SPACEKABLOOIE posted:You seriously underestimate how much tv and movie people hate each other. For each of those actors to do tv is to degrade their brand. TV is simply beneath them. That's changed, drastically, in recent years. The key, however, is there are certain TV networks that are becoming acceptable, even desirable, for fairly large actors while network stations like ABC.. not so much. More and more you're going to see A list talent in places like HBO and Netflix; all of Hollywood knows that theatrical film is dying and the only thing propping it up, truly, is China and their inexperience with movies that can be recycled to them. Making cameos on a TV show isn't the stigma it once was. The problem with Agents of SHIELD is the whole Marvel internal politics problems (and the fact Pearlmutter, ejected from the MCU, is still involved in TV) and a frosty relationship between dying networks like ABC and up and comers that are dominating the future landscape like Netflix; Netflix was really a "clean start" for Marvel TV, with Agents always being a red-headed stepchild after season 1 when it wasn't a megahit out of the gate (which we can all agree is understandable given season 1). But really the concept of TV being beneath actors is going to be changing more and more. You won't see the super-mega-A list like Tom Cruise doing a Netflix series soon (well, actually, maybe he might if it was sci-fi and nuts) but you're going to see more and more highly respectable actors even preferring TV over movies in the future. To be honest this change is for the best for everyone; TV quality has gone way up, streaming changed the medium; it's a way more actor-friendly environment, too. ED: Yes I know Marvel movies have been breaking movie records as have several in recent years; but I mean the industry as a whole. Wasn't Disney something like 40%+ of all movie revenue last year?

Except, we're not dealing with a Ward in any way based on the real Ward. This Ward is almost positively based on season 1 Ward's act; taken from Daisy's memories back when she thought he was a real good guy and was leaning towards him romantically. Since he's created from the memories of the "good parts" of Ward, and the "painful parts" were removed by Aida, it's likely he's sincerely basically season 1 milk toast hero Ward.

I don't know why that show bombed. It was awesome and it started pretty good. I kind of look at Carter as a miniseries, you can absolutely watch it get most plots wrapped up satisfyingly.

However it's highly positive critical reception and the brand lately might see it hit another season. I hope they keep this pod format; 3 storyarcs that fit together is a very good idea.

Robot Hobo posted:Simmons has to be absolutely livid. I thought they got pretty dark when they melted down the first Aida and the Radcliffe LMD, because they JUST gave a speech about having a soul. If SHIELD had not done that, there might have been a very different ultimate outcome to Aida's behavior. Big things to consider now is Mac, Mr. "gently caress all AI, gently caress every last one, kill them with axes," is now going to be facing an emotional attachment to a fully realized AI, if virtual, daughter. With LMD technology + AI (which I suspect is what Project Looking Glass is actually intended to be) he could literally have his daughter back, and as they have been hinting, it's more real than they want to admit. I will be utterly shocked if SHIELD shuts down the framework this season. They're becoming attached to the inhabitants; even if they get out of it, I think it would be the height of evil to just burn the place down provided the AI is really self-aware, which is not out of the question given the designer. It seems like they might end up like that one old TNG episode where they let the simulation run on forever to allow the sentient virtual character within to live a full life.. or as I mentioned, introduce the idea of using LMDs to bring people (or copies) back into the real world, like Good Ward. Either way I will be a bit disappointed if after they leave the framework they still go right back to "Yep, burn all AIs, burn all LMDs, gently caress whatever emotions they claim to have" now that they're gotten a ton of evidence to change their POV. Boris Galerkin posted:I think it was heavily implied that Fitzdad was played by Aida right?

Am I the only guy that's actually kind of happy that the X-Men universe is finally getting good movies and isn't in the MCU? I never really liked X-Men existing in main Marvel continuity because the line between mutants and "random dude who gets his power in a lab accident" is so non-distinct, the bias against one group and not the other always seemed off. Maybe it's years of movies and such, but X-Men works so much better as it's own contained universe in my opinion, and the MCU is better off for it too. A good example is Spider-Man. In a world where there's like thousands of mutants, why the hell does anyone give a poo poo about him? Mraagvpeine posted:I haven't seen Guardians of the Galaxy 2 yet, but is it safe to assume the show won't make any direct references to it? Maybe indirectly. They setup some characters that I could see appearing in Thor Ragnarok, which in turn might get a reference. But the greater Marvel universe is SO far removed from typical life on Earth I seriously doubt it. It'd be like Daredevil on Netflix having a one-off episode where he fights space pirates. It'd be a huge what the gently caress. Open Source Idiom posted:That said, no-one's had time to factor in the just breaking news about Once Upon A Time -- which looks like it's going through substantial changes, including the loss of nearly all of the leads including the main character -- which is really good news for SHIELD. Talk about beating a dead loving horse into paste, Jesus Christ. Has that ever worked for a show, ever? Even when it turns out OK (the Farscape cast taking over Stargate) people tune out in droves, every loving time. PS: I'm laughing that Taken might live due to international ratings. I've never watched that show but knowing the movies (and how quick they turned to poo poo), it would have been an amazing comedy if every episode began with someone taking something from the main character, a phone call where he finds out it was TAKEN, and then a rampage of possibly unnecessary revenge to get it back.

As is the Framework subplot felt kind of tacked on and other than the final couple scenes a little inconclusive. While the Aida stuff felt kind of rushed once they put their plan into place. Also there wasn't any answer as to whether or not they actually defeated the Superior or not. I really didn't like the Framework getting shut down and deleted much. They did a lot to establish these characters that existed there, from anti-Hydra kids to characters we missed like Triplet and Ward that just getting rid of it felt like such a waste. I was hoping they'd decide to keep it running on it's own server so those people have gotten something out of it. More importantly it kept annoying me nobody even TRIED to mention Project Looking Glass, which they were aware of. It'd been way more sad of an ending, to me, if they were trying to get Hope brought into the real world and didn't make it, than what happened - where I called the outcome in advance. It'd also maybe let us bring back a version of a character that could have been neat (it'd been a great end to the good Ward if his last act was to push Triplet into the machine and save him or something). As it stands the fact the whole thing erased itself made all of those characters feel pointless and all of their struggles in there for naught. I think it's largely because they established that the AI inside were actually pretty real; it's not like they escaped from a video game.
