[fallengorn]

Man, Gabriel Luna is owning the Ghost Rider role. There had better be long term plans for him in the MCU.

Yeah, he's great in it. Hope they keep him around in some form.

 

[Neoxon]

The events of this episode will have lasting repercussions on the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe

Spoiler

or at least they should

They'll at most say "Hey, SHIELD's back & reformed" in the movies.

 

[Exploratory]

Shield is killing it. This season is fucking aces so far.

 

[BrokenFiction]

I hoping for a moment where the distrust of SHIELD is still high until Patriot very publicly saves the day.

 

[BrokenFiction]

And dang Bear McCreary killed it with the music during the fight scene with the Watchdogs. Especially the shots with Yo-Yo disarming everyone. Very Avengers-esque.

 

[Christian]

Really hope Netflix picks up Agents of SHIELD if ABC doesn't renew it.

 

[aparisi2274]

With SHIELD back in the public eye, how can they keep Coulson hidden? I mean is there not one single Avenger that has the means to figure out that he is alive?

I sure hope he shows up in Avengers Infinity War...

 

[Zero-ELEC]

I'm not going to be able to watch this today. The people I watch it with are indisposed today.

It's pretty easy to stay hidden when you're on Agents of SHIELD instead of the movies.

 

[mreddie]

Well, the next 3 movies aren't gonna bring up SHIELD likely so fair game.

Good ep, not shocked WatchDoge are back, seems like a loose thread and now Senator Jerk is funding them, I just forgot who the statue was.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Season has been pretty good so far. Shame that only like 12 people are still watching it. Hope the show goes out with a bang and maybe some of the characters are salvaged for something else.

With SHIELD back in the public eye, how can they keep Coulson hidden? I mean is there not one single Avenger that has the means to figure out that he is alive?

Well that's kind of the whole idea of him not being the director/public face anymore.

 

[Neoxon]

It's the reason why Coulson isn't director.

 

[Mariolee]

So I guess what happened to the Senator's bro is that he got into direct contact with the Terrigen crystals rather than the diluted version somehow?

[anaron]

This season has been really great so far.

"I liked working in the shadows"

"well at least you won't have to live in them"

was such an awesome moment. the music was killer throughout and Yo-Yo & Ghosy Rider continue to be the best.

 

[TheVampire]

The world under attack and no mention of calling The Avengers?

I want to know how much writing turnover there was from S3 cause we're back to s2 good shit again.

 

[Epcott]

I missed the episode again. It comes on so late now, I find myself waking up midway through the episode only to fall back to sleep. I hope next day streaming is taken into consideration when they tally the ratings. I want this show to succeed.

 

[squall23]

Why did the fight in the EMP room sound like music from The Flash?

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Such a solid season so far, I hope they use Ghost Rider elsewhere.

 

[HeySeuss]

The world under attack and no mention of calling The Avengers?

Not to sound cold here, but they used an emp and killed 17 inhumans during the process in several large cities. I don't think that rises to Avengers levels of involvement. That's low level stuff.

 

[StarCreator]

So did it make sense for the other EMPs to turn off when they did given the "demands" were not met? Unless the implication is that SHIELD actually managed to find and dismantle them all, but that seems like something we should have been shown explicitly.

 

[Mariolee]

The world under attack and no mention of calling The Avengers?

The fact that inhumans in this show's version of the MCU seem to be fairly prevalent, it will feel odd moving forward if absolutely no one in the actual films mentions Inhumans or even SHIELD.

 

[darkhunger]

The fact that inhumans in this show's version of the MCU seem to be fairly prevalent, it will feel odd moving forward if absolutely no one in the actual films mentions Inhumans or even SHIELD.

Or the Netflix shows for that matter. No mention of Inhumans when encountering someone like Luke Cage?

 

[Shaanyboi]

Or the Netflix shows for that matter. No mention of Inhumans when encountering someone like Luke Cage?

Jessica Jones had people going "You're one of them!" But that's pretty vague. They could easily just mean "you're like The Avengers, in that you're super weird and have powers."

But the fact neither Jessica or Luke have had someone from SHIELD come up to them and go "So, we just kinda wanna ask you some questions," is super weird.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Or the Netflix shows for that matter. No mention of Inhumans when encountering someone like Luke Cage?

Luke Cage takes place from Summer to Fall 2015 IIRC so Inhumans weren't really a known thing yet. But the easier answer is that just like the movie side or no one on the Netflix TV side really gives a shit about Agents of SHIELD despite Jeph Loeb being involved with it all.

 

[HeySeuss]

Or the Netflix shows for that matter. No mention of Inhumans when encountering someone like Luke Cage?

They mentioned it both in Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. "You're one of them?" "Are you one of those freaks?" Etc...

Maybe people just don't use the term inhuman in their normal conversation.

 

[StarCreator]

It'd be nice if the Defenders does something with it, at least. Luke Cage takes place in an ambiguous part of the timeline where the terrigen contamination had already occurred but Inhuman events were still relatively isolated - especially with SHIELD, the ATCU, and HYDRA all acting on terrigen-caused events as they happened.

 

[Exploratory]

They're talking about people with powers in general.

 

[Danthrax]

You have to keep in mind that the Netflix series do not take place in real time when they're released like Agents of SHIELD and the movies roughly do. They usually take place when they were filmed, although that isn't even always necessarily true.

It made sense for Jessica Jones not to mention Inhumans because it takes place before the terrigen outbreak -- it's in January through March 2015, while the terrigen outbreak happens at the end of SHIELD season 2 in May 2015. But Daredevil season 2, which starts July 2015 and jumps to November into December 2015, and Luke Cage, which happens in November and December 2015, have no excuse for ignoring Inhumans. The producers and writers just don't give a fuck, I guess.

 

[Broken Joystick]

I don't give a fuck about Inhumans in Luke Cage and DD S2 either tbh.

Also YoYo's slowed down sequence was really cool this week.

 

[kurahador]

Well that escalate quickly. Goddamn Fitz is brutal.

 

[Neoxon]

The world under attack and no mention of calling The Avengers?

The Avengers are kinda in shambles right now after what happened in Civil War.

That said, if I recall, the main link between the shows & the movies is WHIH News (namely the videos that went up for Ant-Man), which mentioned events that went on in SHIELD Season 3 at the bottom.

 

[Lashley]

Another solid episode

 

[Neoxon]

Shield is killing it. This season is fucking aces so far.

Amen to that. I don't know if it's the later time-slot or something else entirely, but this show's on a roll right now.

With the Sokovia Accords/Superhuman Registration/etc. stuff thats going on right now in the MCU/SHIELD, they have to address it in the Netflix shows eventually, right?

The registration stuff is only mentioned in SHIELD though, since the movie Sokovia Accords only talks about the Avengers. So I guess we'll find out if SHIELD actually matters or not.

The Sokovia Accords happen in April 2016, about four months after Luke Cage and Daredevil season two end. We'll have to see when Iron Fist and The Defenders are set to find out whether they should be affected.

 

[Neoxon]

They did indeed.

Wasn't that coordinated by Marvel Studios (hence them getting Paul Rudd on-board)? If so, it would show that there's some semblance of the movie stuff acknowledging by the TV stuff. Hopefully that spreads to the films themselves eventually (even if it's an off-handed reference).

 

[The Kree]

The movies take longer to come together which makes it harder to reference stuff closer to real time. They should at least be talking about Inhumans by now though.

 

[fallengorn]

It'll be interesting to see how it shakes out when the timelines match up. About the only one who might be affected by the Accords is Luke Cage. Everyone knows he's bulletproof. All people know about Daredevil is he's a vigilante. Jessica Jones is completely under the radar.

Not really.

Spoiler

Mariah in Cage specifically mentions "A woman snaps her ex-boyfriends neck because she claims he mind-controlled her" in a very public speech that got a crowd reaction. She's not Luke Cage known but definitely known.

As far as being powered she is. That mention was more about Kilgrave.

Isn't it literally just Tony, Vision, and Widow who are active? Everyone else is unknown.

 

[Christian]

I think the bigger issue is, in my mind, how do you have The Defenders not run into Spider-Man or vice versa? They're all frolicking in each others' backyards. I just can't imagine them not meeting at some point. I know it's not going to happen, but it just doesn't seem right.

Widow is a fugitive too.

Now I want to know more about Jeffrey Mace's "work on international affairs". He was put in charge because he was an "enhanced", and "everybody knows about him".
