    I guess you missed the winking emotionicon that Dream typed next to his post Christopher. I got the impression he was just teasing/joking with you.

    They flew in Gregg for that panel and the crowd went nuts. It was a lot to fun being there.

    Awesome.. Coulson was one of the best parts of the Marvel movie universe, a true breakout character (i still laugh when he dresses down Tony Stark in Iron Man 2 :lol:).

    Of course i was going to watch Shield but now it has become must see TV.

    I still think Coulson actually sent his LMD to take on Loki.

    Also, the real Coulson is still pissed at Fury for wrecking his vintage Cap trading cards. ;)

    Would kinda undermine the only emotional aspect The Avengers film had. Stark became part of the team for good only when Coulson died.

    It's possible, but unlikely, that they could pull a City Slickers 2 and have Gregg play Coulson's identical twin. Or that Coulson will be a virtual reality or holographic character based on the original.

    But it does look like the real thing is back. Brilliant news. Kinduva cheat but I do think that the clues are there in the original movie that he's not really dead, so it's not a total cop-out, IMHO.

    I can just imagine Thor rubbing this in Loki's face - how he not only failed the invasion of Earth, but he also failed to actually kill Coulson.

    Did you also think Gandalf coming back to life ruined LOTR? :confused:

    Yep, getting a LMD fits nicely with the high security area we saw him disappear into before he picked up the gun.

    With no DC Nation I watched the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon on Disney which I hadn't seen in a while. Agent Coulson is doing well over there even taking Aunt May out on a date. :)

    If he's part of the end credits scene, then Stark doens't necessarily have to know he's alive. After all, the lead characters aren't always involved in those post-credit scenes.

    Well y'know it could be "dead from a certain point of view" or "Hey it was a f--king miracle! He just... woke up in the morgue. Must have been something with Loki's magic!"

    I wonder this to.

    however this is a movie verse, based on not just one, but many many comics. Coulson may not actually be a created for comics character, but that does not mean he should not be able to cheat death like his comic book counterparts.

    Lets face it even Thor and Loki being in the Avengers kinda ruins the end of the first Thor movie.

    Also Wheedon is a bloke not overly a fan of killing somebody off completely, he killed of Harmony, simply to make her interesting.

    Those weren't real cards. They were CMDs.

    Nope, in the interests of equality, he'll actually be playing a white Luke Cage.

    And Doyle.
