That actually would be really cool! Replay the Nick Fury stuff from Phase 1 with Phil Coulson instead of Nick.
 
I think Coulson will meet Quill because Thanos will start causing some grief.
 
And then Quill shows up on Agents of SHIELD under the alias "Burt Macklin"
 
Well,I'm a little late with my review as I had to see TASM2 last night.

Started a little slow TBH,but the last half was awesome.

Coulson vs Garrett was great.Kinda sad that Garrett had to go down.Loved his character.He was even better "mad".("I love you too":hehe:) It was cool that Mike/Deathlok got to take him out.They had me fooled for a minute there.I thought he might have survived.:woot:

Wonder where Deathlok goes from here?Will he stay on the show?Spin-off?

I also have to point out that General guy from First Class doesn't have much luck when dealing with supervillains,does he?:hehe:

What else can you say but SLJ is awesome.His appearance didn't disappoint.I miss the eye patch though.He had some great lines with Coulson.("I look like I live under a bridge":funny:) So our man Coulson is now Director of 'New' SHIELD.

I'm guessing Koenig is supposed to be an LMD?If he was the original one's brother,it seems too weird that he says the exact same things.

The scenes between Ward & May/Skye were pretty cool.When I saw they were fighting with power tools nearby,I knew it wouldn't end well for Ward.Ouch!I wonder what Ward would've said to Coulson,if that ability wasn't (conveniently) taken away from him?

The biggest mystery to me is what will become of Fitz.Is he going to be brain-dead or something?I hope they don't write him out,but they're really pushing their luck in terms of miraculous recoveries.

So Raina is the same......whatever........as Skye?And they're both going to become.......monsters?And Skye's dad is some kinda leper?

Looking forward to next season!

I am still sticking to the Simmons/AIM connection. Maybe she turns to Extremis or some other sort of dark side to bring Fitz back to normal?
 
Right.

The other issue, Skye's parents sound quite malevolent. The royal family of Inhumans are mostly pretty decent folks right? They wouldn't butcher an entire town of innocent civilians in order to possibly kill their own daughter. So it wouldn't be Black Bolt Medusa, etc if they were Inhumans.

Your assuming they were trying to kill Skye. What if they were trying to *retrieve* Skye? It may be somewhat ruthless and horrible, but it'd be hardly out of character for parents to respond to "people trying to steal away my child" with violence.
 
Its possible that with LMDs in the MCU they have the technology to produce them but the problem is with copying an existing person. The program was designed with the plan to make decoys and it even got as far as creating the Koenig model, but then when they moved on to making an exact duplicate they ran into problems and the program was shut down (like TAHITI). The Koenig LMDs produced during the program are now used as caretakers of SHIELD's top secret bases.

This is the angle I'd bet on, atm, with the proviso that in the MCU, the LMD program is apparently a cloning method, not robotics.

So, do you think Koenig *knows* he's an LMD?
 
The one thing that bugged me was why did Cybertek have a wood shop in their building?

I was thinking the same thing earlier. I'll probably need to review "The Seeds" and "Ragtag" to check the details and see if this trail of thought holds, but the Hunan attack could've been one mig misunderstanding for all we know. I mean, what were SHIELD agents supposed to think at the sight of two humanoids who don't look human at all holding a very human looking baby girl? That they were her parents and were just adoring their newborn daughter would certainly not be it.

They were building new premises (it is mentioned in the beginning).
 
Anyone else think that the "Toolbox" given to Coulson also includes the names of other SHIELD agents to contact in regards to rebuilding the organization from the ground up (with said names even comprising of named agents from the comics)?

Yes and no. I think it contains data of "where the bodies are buried" so to speak. Hidden troves of items to use.
 
For those of you complaining that not everything got resolved...this is EXACTLY the way comic books work. There is an A story that is followed, with small developments of a B story (and maybe even a hint or two at a C story). Just as the A story is resolved, the B story gets kicked up to the A story, with the C story then becoming the B story.

Regarding The Clairvoyant...it was Garrett...and he had no real clairvoyance. The guy Raina gave that picture to CAN'T be The Clairvoyant because Raina was clearly looking for his daughter...and she got roped into The Clairvoyant thing. If he was clairvoyant, he'd just approach his daughter himself. Or, if he was, then why did Raina fall in with the wrong one, AFTER other people already had? Plus, she desperately wanted to meet him...yet she seems to have already met that guy. In fact, she seems to have been using The Clairvoyant and Hydra to help herself and this guy.

Let it go, guys. The Clairvoyant storyline has been wrapped up nicely.

Spot on!
 
This was an ok Episode. But I'm seriously getting annoyed at how useless these Super Soldiers are, and how inept they have to be portrayed, so Coulson and his Team don't get slaughtered in seconds.

Like for example, why the hell did the Soldiers shoot at nothing, after Garrett punched Coulson behind the boulders? Were the Soldiers hoping that a ricochet would hit and kill Coulson?
 
That's why the team should have Deathlok on speed dial in the future, so he can take on major threats that should be able to make quick work of the rest of the team.
