View Logs: Agents of SHIELD Promo #1
I know I’m a little bit late to the party for what I’m going
to be bringing up, but I prefer to think of myself as early to the party for
the stuff that hasn’t happened yet!
I finally saw the 2-minute promo for Agents of SHIELD, and I’m
quite impressed.
From the little bits and pieces I can gather, the team will
have problems at first, but need to find a way to work together. (Uh oh, Artsy Core.)
But I’m more interested in the things that they hint at
beyond the team forming.
There’s a superstrong black man running around saving
people. Is this Luke Cage?
One of the team members is recruited after she’s detained
for acting out against SHIELD… will we be seeing a resurgence of HYDRA? Coulson did say that the fight went global….
On a more technical note, the effects look REALLY good, and
thank Odin for that, because people are going to be comparing the effects to
the films, no doubt.
Really, I’d love to speculate on the plot and events more,
but this is Joss Whedon.
Here’s the relevant scale of predictability in writing:
(10= never predictable, 0=same story every time)
Joss Whedon- 8
Steven Moffatt- 9
Grant Morrison- 10
I don’t think anyone can put together what’s going to happen
for the show at this moment (unless they pirated it already, or something). But waiting for the plot twists is going to be
half the fun! Whedon’s twists are always
shocking. Even when you see them coming,
you didn’t see it happening like that.
September 24.
Can’t wait.
Can’t wait.
