I am "rewatching" the episode On Demand now. Good stuff half way through.

I am "rewatching" the episode On Demand now. Good stuff half way through.

As odd as this sounds, TV viewing became much easier since dropping cable and satellite. Hulu, despite a buggy PS3 app, makes TV convenient.

I don't get everything, but that can't be a bad thing when I had to DVR it all to get everything in anyway.

 

[Brett]

Except for not having sports readily accessible, dropping cable sounds incredibly appealing.

I finished this week's episode. Good episode and big cliffhanger. I am looking forward to the upcoming episodes.

 

[David]

I've definitely enjoyed the recent episodes more than the earlier ones. Having some actual continuity in the storyline and playing around with the character relationships more has helped a lot.

 

[Youngun]

Skye and ward still have a future but may and ward was a surprise. Both hard headed and in it for fun lol

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Anyone know when this is back on?, at the end of the last episode the voiceover girl said it would be back in the new year which has been and gone and its not back yet..

Tuesday, 8PM EST in the U.S.(not sure if the rest of the world gets it at the same time).👍

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Ah ok, we get it on a Friday here, so it looks like it'll be back next Friday 👍

 

[David]

@MUSC4EVER Came back last Tuesday here in the US with an episode called "The Magical Place." This week's episode is called "Seeds" but I haven't watched it yet.

 

[Youngun]

Seeds was another good supervillian start up. Seems to be gaining ground over this series.

 

[Brett]

I watched Seeds on Tuesday. However, I was somewhat distracted and probably need to watch the episode again. I got the general gist of the episode, but was not focused enough.

 

[FoolKiller]

So, some fairly interesting tweets just went out on the official @AgentsofSHIELD account.

This would be spoilerish, in case anyone doesn't want to see the picture or hasn't seen the latest couple of episodes. I will post it as a thumbnail, so it can be avoided, if you wish.

 

[Brett]

Whoever does their header image and account picture did an awesome job.

 

[Youngun]

Couldnt read that on my phone but doesnt one of thors knights enter a episode later on?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Its still not back on in the UK

Check your PMs.

 

[Terronium-12]

Read about this the other day. I'm pretty excited about what's coming.

I still can't shake the feeling that eventually Tony is going to pop up in some form or fashion, even if AoS has to invade Age of Ultron.

 

[Youngun]

Or banner appearing without Mr H

Or banner appearing without Mr H

I can do without Ruffalo having too much involvement. He's great as Banner, but he had a recent interview, talking about how if they do another solo Hulk he will push it to have a heavy Eco-message. That's a sure way to ruin the movie, right there.

Puny human litter. Hulk smash puny human.

Puny human drive big SUV. Hulk no like SUV. Hulk smash!

 

[David]

Everyone loves their action flicks to be overtly preachy How does that even work in a universe where Stark has already solved the world's energy problems?

 

[Youngun]

Well not solved as its only a prototype. I dont see eco or green energy message a problem, he could be working on hydrogen fuel or radiation to save the earth.

 

[FoolKiller]

It wouldn't make sense for him to work on something else when he's supposedly been working with Stark after The Avengers.

Now, since the whole reason he was brought along was because there were signs of gamma radiation from Loki's attack. It's possible to make a movie where he is working with SHIELD and something creates another gamma mutant. It wouldn't be far from what he's had to face in the comics. Although a Red Hulk storyline could be interesting.

Either way, nothing going on has really lent itself to an Eco-message. Maybe he could try to get SHIELD to use their resources to create clean stuff instead of purely military. If it doesn't fit it doesn't work though, and if you start out from, "It must have this message," it's as bad as starting a movie with action scenes in mind first. But Joss Whedon is fairly liberal, so maybe he would let it slide.

I have just seen perfectly good movies ruined by throwing in a preachy message that doesn't fit in with the story.

 

[Youngun]

Well given that ironman 3 was stark panicking about Avengers movie, having a breakdown and blowing up the suits to spend more time with pepper. Given that banner cant turn the hulk off, don't think they will be working together much, maybe in avengers tower but not same floors.

Did you see the post-credits scene?

And comic fans know Stark can't leave the suits alone. He has a hero's heart.

Yeh but still films and gaps to fill yet, spins and twists happen

 

[UKMikey]

I hadn't realised anyone was watching this show on this forum.

As a lifelong Marvel fan I think Arrow has this show beat, but it is getting better. I blame exec producer Jeph Loeb. He kinda ruined the cartoons as well.

 

[Youngun]

The thing is, it was always in it for the long haul. I can see 5 years, after all, there 4 billion in movie tickets pays for their wages from loose change. Always tieing in and creating heros and villian even if its not the big 8.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Its not back on again on Channel 4 tonight, the Jump is on instead and for the last few weeks they have had cooking with Pinky and Perky on at 8...or whatever they are called...

 

[David]

They haven't played a new episode since Seeds. I believe new episodes start back up Feb 4th in the US.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

We haven't had a new episode since about two weeks before Christmas and when the end credits of that rolled the voiceover guy said it would be back in the new year, which is long gone ....
