iceroll Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Pretty good, the dialogue was quite corny at times and I'm not quite a fan of the acting for Brett Dalton (who plays Grant Ward) and Chloe Bennet (who plays Skye), but it seems like it has pretty good potential. The pacing and action was quite well done though. 7/10 pilot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamKendall Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) It has to be said ... Joss Whedon certainly knows his audience. Every show he's involved in has a nerd 'niche' ... and he fills it with a bunch of hot women. The rating is very good, best since V in 2009 for a debut drama series ... will it hold the audience better than that show did?

Lordmandeep Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 About 12 million viewers but hey I thought we would see Dr. Banner at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) Maybe since Edgar Wright is all about Scott Lang we may get a Hank Pym story arc at some point here? Edited September 25, 2013 by 4815162342 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamKendall Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) We won't get any hero who will headline a feature film ... we just won't. It's not in Marvel's interest, because it takes away the importance of people paying big money to see that character in theaters opening weekend if that person can show up for free on their TV on ABC once a year. The best we can probably hope for is Nick Fury showing up for a cameo at some point ... and a few lower level heroes and villains that they have no interest in transferring to a big screen appearance.

Sam Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 A Rhodey/War Machine cameo would be nice, and since Don Cheadle's been doing TV these days, getting him to be on board is more possible than other actors/actresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I remember reading that Sam Jackson said he would be interested in turning up in an episode. Hopefully... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do you think should play Fury if he should pop up on the series? Edited January 23, 2015 by mulder42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamKendall Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Who do you think should play Fury if he should pop up on the series? No, if Fury shows up, it will be Samuel L Jackson (similar to Cobie Smulders showing up as Maria Hill) as a cameo situation. They won't hire anyone else as this show is supposed to be the universe where SLJ is Nick Fury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceroll Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 She's also not a very good actress, kind of reminds me of Charlie form Revolution, but not as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Find it incredibly cool that the actress playing Melinda May (Ming-Na), is the voice of Mulan- Fa Mulan is an agent of SHIELD? Why, of course! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I thought Skye is very cute, but I like the girl playing Simmons more. Looking forward to see more of the Fitz-Simmons dynamic.The actings are okay overall, but I don't like Brett Dalton's acting much, he seems off and forced in some parts. Maybe he'll grow into the role later, hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtom90 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 As I was watching the pilot episode of the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D beside a lot of Easter eggs I found something interesting. When Coulson leads Agent Ward around the plane, Coulson tries to tell a joke to Ward.. It’s a joke about a man, who is afraid of flying. Everyone knows that Wolverine is afraid of flying. Couldn’t it be a reference to him?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
