Yeah, I know and I'm always willing to look past that particular moment with Stark, but crescent Earth bothers me more than usual. I guess it's because of the scale of the unreality.It's the Marvel Universe. The science has always been... inconsistent at best. Go back to the very beginning -- when Tony Stark first crashlanded inside his primitive metal Mark I suit with no internal padding or repulsor fields or whatever, his body should've been turned to mush inside the suit.
True, but it did seem strange that wasn't even addressed. A lot of that going on this season (yes, I'm still annoyed no one asked about the year).Different kinds of implant. Jemma's is just something that slithered into her ear canal like a Babel fish. Daisy's is surgically embedded in her skull behind her ear.
Ah, that makes more sense. Thanks for bringing in that context.Remember, they said she's of common birth. To nobles like Kasius's brother and father, "strength" means lording it over those they consider their inferiors, including common-born Kree. Since Kasius was less "strong" in that respect, he didn't have as much contempt for Sinara as they would have, and would've been more likely to notice and respect her abilities, thereby earning her loyalty. Plus, he needed her strength to keep him alive, which made her valuable to him -- and him valuable to her as an avenue for gaining advancement. Or maybe just as someone who appreciated her personally in a way she hadn't been before. While there are pragmatic reasons for their connection, I got the sense they really care for each other, maybe even love each other in a way.
Still, after the way she sneered at his whimpering, I wouldn't be surprise if she decides to ditch him now.
That was me. Ming was tweeting about the injury and posting pics on Instagram of of her rehab during this past summer. Actually, I think her limp looks a bit exaggerated for the show. I don't think she should be limping that badly considering how far out from the surgery she is now.Didn't someone mention earlier in the thread (about a week ago or so) that Ming Na was injured in real life? I know I heard it somewhere before prior to this most recent story.
Great premiere. The writing for the characters seemed so relaxed and natural in a way that I don't think I've seen before especially so early in the season. Great humor which the show has always done really well. YoYo seemes to have taken over Mack's role conduit of deadpan humor, although all of the main characters seem to use it a lot. The team's reaction to YoYo's suggestion that maybe they were back in the framework was hysterical.
Apparently, Ming Na underwent a knee surgery not too long before they started shooting and that may be the reason May's leg injury was written into the episodes.
Don't know if this has already been brought up but, since Daisy was pulled out of the previous timeline, which apparently led directly to the current timeline, shouldn't the disaster caused by Daisy have been averted? Maybe she did something prior to their abduction that started a chain reaction that led to the disaster. Or, perhaps Daisy being pulled out of the prior timeline is what leads to the earth disaster.
Considering that this show has a firm tradition of getting better as the season wears on, I'm really excited.

But she should be limping that much considering she had a pipe impaled thru her leg!That was me.

^ I suspect that Zeke is the decendant of a certain Sheild pairing from the Zephyr
That's cool. who would have thunk it 5 years ago.Agents of SHIELD is Marvel's highest rated show on Rotten Tomatoes.

Didn't the exact same thing happen in tIH though? Though in that case the question is more "why did the pavement shatter?" because even if you frame-by-frame it, he's was still Puny Banner all the way down. He should have been street pizza.I had a similar reaction toBanner jumping out of the spaceship and face-planting into the bridge on Asgard. Even though it was just played for laughs, my reaction was straight, "Well, he's dead." Though, in his case, we already knew hulking out can heal him being shot in the brain, puny Banner's body being pulverized wasn't as totally over the top as Tony rocketing himself into the ground.
Yeah, that was my take away. They're stuck in a predestination paradoxical time loop. The question is how do they break out of it?
Regarding the post-Zephyr crash section of the timeline: Still no hard proof that Daisy actually caused the seismic event, just circumstantial speculation
That's what happened in the first season of The Magicians. At the end it turned out that they had repeated the loop 39 times, and it wasn't until the current loop, where one of the characters ended up playing a totally different role that they were finally able to break the loop.I actually really like that they're sticking to the 4th dimensional rules established earlier in the show with Robin's father and not just coasting on by, hoping nobody notices. Of course they'll have to break the loop somehow, but at least they're acknowledging it is a loop.
Maybe it's some kind of weird quantum uncertainty and/or butterfly effect thing. With each repetition of the loop, *something* is always slightly different no matter how infinitesimally minute. And any cumulative finite variation expressed over infinite repetitions would significantly alter the course of even predetermined events and break causality.
Yeah, it does sound like some kind of disaster was already happening before whatever happened that broke the Earth, and Quake was probably going off to stop it.I think it's a safe bet that she's the one trying to stop whatever was happening in that city, but her powers weren't strong enough to counter it.
