And ...I enjoyed the Yo-Yo plus Fitzsimmons mission. And especially loved May's deadpan "I love you" to Phil. <br /><br />Much agreement that Mack operating on Deke was ridiculous. Especially since he wore a surgical cap over his bald head and ignored his beard, which actually has hair.<br /><br />I groaned when Ivanov appeared. I hope he's actually gone for good now. (Quick check on IMDb -- Yay!) Not the actor's fault, but what a terrible villain he made.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-70354553073474498702018-04-30T15:19:56.491-04:002018-04-30T15:19:56.491-04:00I guess the head was the living tissue that Hale w...I guess the head was the living tissue that Hale wanted to experiment on, but Ivanov is just a loose thread afterthought from season 4 so glad he's gone for good along with the robot army.<br /><br />I wonder how will the show handle Avengers Infinity War, unlike Age of Ultron this one will be very hard to pretend it did not change anything.Patrykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662838711958747484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-30202759984329248462018-04-19T10:41:27.956-04:002018-04-19T10:41:27.956-04:00I always thought the Big Bad would be Cassius'...I always thought the Big Bad would be Cassius's father.Gus Brunettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15554920460249324531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-22466997849568391662018-04-18T22:53:18.979-04:002018-04-18T22:53:18.979-04:00I definitely agree that this season's villains...I definitely agree that this season's villains have been pretty dang weak. They just don't hold a candle to some of the bigger ones in the previous years. I mean even Season 1 had some pretty solid villains by the end of it. Garrett was a much better wacky/nefarious bad guy than Kassius was (probably down to Bill Paxton) and Ward is just something else entirely. I will say though I think this was probably Dove Cameron's best performance in the season so far. She definitely played the psycho better than the sullen sultry bad ass teen we were getting in some of the past episodes. <br /><br />Interesting point about securing Talbot's family. I guess I assumed that SHIELD didn't have the resources to go and get them at the time but I'm still not really sure. Although it's not the only real lapse in logic this season has had.<br /><br />The whole thing with Ivanov/Superior being dead is kind of a confusing situation. We were told earlier in the season that Hale had his head in a jar but apparently he was walking around with it this whole time? I guess he wanted to take his head to the chamber to get that power boost he wanted but it still seems like a major risk. Kind of thought his defeat was pretty anti-climatic given how long he managed to survive.<br /><br />The Deke plot does feel pretty contrived when, as you mentioned in the last review, there was really no reason for him to be on that mission in the first place. Also while the drug scene was funny seems like they could have used that to maybe have him drop the grandson bomb on everybody else if you wanted to give this detour more justification in the season.<br /><br />At this point the Quake Ghost Rider ship is probably the best way to go. While I hadn't really considered it as a possibility when he was first introduced it's probably the best choice we have right now. They are both on pretty even footing and could make a cute power couple (wink). Plus while Daisy has had to worry about dudes being evil or ending up dead in the past, Robbie is kind of a bit of both already so she doesn't have to worry about any surprises. And if nothing else it will allow us to settle on something so we don't have to keep throwing potential love interests at her. <br /><br />Also funny enough it turns out Gabriel Luna was cast as a Terminator in one of the upcoming movies. The man is pretty much gonna play and LMD now and that irony is too delicious. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
