We'll see, but I hope sooner rather then this being the entire season arc.Patrykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662838711958747484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-15870099742907986632018-01-27T20:51:12.713-05:002018-01-27T20:51:12.713-05:00I'd give this individual most of the credit fo...I'd give this individual most of the credit for piecing the knockout thing in question. The next time trailer just kind of confirmed it.<br /><br />https://twitter.com/CrazyGirlVids/status/956618974527188992<br /><br />She also has some good fan vids if you want to check those out. The Agents of SPOOF series is a must.<br />https://www.youtube.com/user/CrazierGirl1870/videos<br /><br />Comparing it to Netflix is kind of apt but I still feel like people would have some of the same issues with the padding and the pace since they seem to have those with the main Marvel Netflix shows. This arc is generally more efficient than those but you can still feel the drag. With some of the prior 10+ episode arcs there were still enough standalone episodes/elements that you didn't feel the weight of the situation drag. That's kind of been hard with the Framework arc and especially with this space arc. Probably why ep5 was the most popular one so far is that we actually got away from all of this.<br /><br />The visual effects are definitely very impressive. Though I'd probably trade the visuals in for a setting I was more invested in (fingers crossed for that Carter team up). Some people compared this arc to Doctor Who a while back and the reusing of sets and corridors is definitely in line with Classic Who.

That would be a terrific way to pay respect to S.H.I.E.L.D. in the hundredth episode, by the way. It would also be nice if something they did in the 50s-90s tied up with something that happened in a previous season.<br /><br />Good call on Coulson knocking Daisy out so that she won't resist going back, televisionandotherrantings.<br /><br />Anon, the VFX are spectacular. I'm tired of the corridors of the Lighthouse at this point, it's a bit jarring that the visual effects are so great and then we are back with the actors stuck in claustrophobic sets. I get that there was a budget cut, but I'm looking forward to seeing the characters in other places than small rooms and corridors.Lamounierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00225447169375363236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-69585609669029732292018-01-27T20:08:05.622-05:002018-01-27T20:08:05.622-05:00Wow if they went back to Peggy's times it thi...Wow if they went back to Peggy's times it think i would explode from the awesomeness. It seems a bit far fetched but two things make me believe they could just go completely balls out with the plots from now on..<br />1..Infinity War or the Avengers 4 is rumoured to also have time travel, Shield always incorporates what the next big Marvel film will have as a plot point..<br />2. Because of the whole Disney/Fox deal all the Marvel Tv shows and movies landscape will change considerably in the coming years...Especially with new characters who will just pop up as part of the already existing universes. A good way to explain that from a story perspective is with people messing around with the timelines.<br /><br />To the episode..It was excellent again...This season is exceptional..Week to week it can seem a little slow but imagine if this was released in a netflix format. Even the flaws that people see i see them as a positive..The extended period of this arc is clearly down to budget cuts as im sure they are only using 3 to 5 sets that are being rejigged to look different...<br />Also whenever your strongest character is leashed like Daisy is at the moment its because they can't afford or have to be careful when they use the CGI of her powers... The fact they can still make the show compelling despite these restraints is an achievement in itself.<br /><br />Was disappointed that Sinara died jumping into a pole, i think it was meant to look epic but was just poorly directed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-3577395900807207052018-01-27T18:28:16.011-05:002018-01-27T18:28:16.011-05:00SPECULATION/THEORY SPOILERS BASED ON THE NEXT TIME...SPECULATION/THEORY SPOILERS BASED ON THE NEXT TIME TRAILER AND OTHER THINGS PEOPLE HAVE SAID<br /><br />So my current thinking is that Coulson is basically gonna knock Daisy out and force her to go back to 2018. However, something will happen so that the crew will end up in an earlier time instead. Perhaps Daisy had a plan in case Coulson tried to pull something like this (because while he cares he can be a bit forceful at times). I figure they were going to have to go to the past at some point since we have to explain why the Lighthouse existed back in 2018 in the first place. While I'm not crazy about the notion of Daisy feeling severe guilt about the situation that she's arrange something like this if it leads to something cool like meeting Peggy Carter than I'm willing to accept it. If we're going to use time travel maybe we should have the characters actually try and change something that has severely hindered them in the past like the HYDRA sleeper agent thing or Whitewall basically destroying Daisy's family's lives. It might not work but it would be an interesting Terminator 2 situation to put them in. Plus the 50s or 80s or whatever would definitely make for a more fun place to be than this post-apocalypse. Although there is a possibility that some characters might stay there or be in 2018 in order to create an All Good Things situation where we're dealing with a problem in 3 different time periods. <br /><br />I'd imagine Voss figures that if he dies to change the timeline it would ultimately be worth it so billions don't die or suffer at the hands of the Kree. I'm not sure how much he's thought of the logistics of it but the core idea makes a bit of sense.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
