Agents of SHIELD - Season 2 Discussion Threads. (Spoilers Likely)

[DEWLine]

I wonder what sort of recruitment drive dug up Turgeon. You can guess how they got Pierce and maybe Rumlow and Sitwell...

 

[Alidar Jarok]

Find a scientist who gets fired for doing unethical things. Approach and say "have you heard about Hydra?"

 

[Guy Gardener]

Scientist somehow finds a hot girlfriend who then sleeps with scientists bother and burns all his comics.

Scientist joins Hydra the next day without realizing that the hot girlfriend worked for Hydra all along.

"All I want now is revenge. They took from me the one thing I have ever truly loved. And you will help me, Mr. Morden, to strike them down. Give me this, and the safety of my people, and let the rest of the galaxy burn! I don't care anymore."

(Fuck. I was just riffing. I completely forgot that Morden Killed Adira to get Londo on Task.)

 

[Reverend]

Plus there's always "the intensives program". I doubt Garrett's cell was the only one pulling that trick.

 

[bbjeg]

Yeah, it's nonsense. I'm not saying it's not true, but there's certainly nothing clear enough to be probative there.

Regarding the other character

Spoiler: Other Character

BJ Britt has been rumored for some time but the rumor is based on someone who thought they saw him. It's more likely they confused him for Falcon, who is apparently in the movie.

That's what I gathered but thought I should share it anyway to get others opinions.

 

[Alidar Jarok]

Plus there's always "the intensives program". I doubt Garrett's cell was the only one pulling that trick.

Incentives

Was it Hydra or Cybertek that ran that program?

 

[bbjeg]

I thought it was Hydra's doing, what with the head of Cybertek being apart of the program and all.

 

[kitik]

Holy smokes, I completely missed the fact that Wonder Woman had an invisible jet!

Yeah, they have been very vague on just where exactly a lot of the action is actually taking place this season.

They're still happy to call out some locations, like Miami, but yeah, when it's just a random American city, why give people the opportunity to even argue about the math. (Or angle of sunlight, etc.)

 

[kitik]

Since they debuted the trailer a week earlier than planned, Marvel has announced that they will now show a different Avengers Age Of Ultron scene during next week's episode of AOS.

And because we believe that the best way to say thanks is to give you more, we're delivering new Marvel's "Avengers: Age of Ultron" action to your TV sets, two weeks in a row! Tune in to "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." this Tuesday, October 28 at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC to see an exclusive piece from Marvel's "Avengers: Age of Ultron." Then, on Tuesday, November 4 at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC, tune into "Marvel 75 Years: From Pulp to Pop!" for another taste of Marvel's "Avengers: Age of Ultron"--and much more!

Sounds like we can expect different material both weeks.

 

[Mr Light]

Hey I just thought of something. They haven't even mentioned Deathlok yet this season!

 

[Alidar Jarok]

Yeah, I'm sure he'll only come up if he has a particularly relevant interest.

 

[Sto-Vo-Kory]

Yeah, I'm sure he'll only come up if he has a particularly relevant interest.

Is "particularly relevant interest" Hollywood-speak for having enough CG budget to depict a bionic leg properly?

 

[Alidar Jarok]

Eh, they'd probably just put him in his trench coat to solve that problem. I think it's more they'd have to have a good idea for how to use him. That being said, I would be shocked if he doesn't appear at all.

 

[bbjeg]

I'm more interested in Quinn, Hall, and the Gravitonium.

 

[Hartzilla2007]

Eh, they'd probably just put him in his trench coat to solve that problem. I think it's more they'd have to have a good idea for how to use him. That being said, I would be shocked if he doesn't appear at all.

Or you know pants.

 

[Enterprise1701]

I thought it was Hydra's doing, what with the head of Cybertek being apart of the program and all.

I think HYDRA was blackmailing Cybertek's head in order to utilize Cybertek's resources for Project Deathlok. And possibly produce the eye implants as well.

 

[Mr Light]

After watching the Avengers 2 trailer I got to thinking how the show will tie-in to it. I'm hoping the season finale shows them fighting off an army of Ultron drones in their neck of the woods. It looks like it's going to be a global crisis after all.

 

[sojourner]

Doesn't the movie premiere in May? If so, the events of the movie will most likely take place between seasons of the show.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

The film premieres the first weekend of May. I don't believe we have a date for the season finale, but if it's anything like season 1, it'll be mid-May. The show responded to the events of The Winter Soldier the same week as the film's premiere, so I expect we'll see the same this time around.

 

[Mr Light]

I would imagine that the show could use the Ultron CG models from the movie and save the money of having to develop them.

Avengers 2 comes out May 1st. last season finale was May 13th.
