Most Hydra WWII commanders were Nazis that didn't think the Nazis were doing enough. There have been a lot of Hydras, since after WWII they split into multiple different factions leading to the Hydra Civil War, until it was reunited under the rule of Baron Strucker, one of the uberNazis responsible for WWII Hydra. In the comics there's currently two different Hydras, both led by Nazis.

Alright, what bright spark decided it was a good idea to [sp]let SHIELD and Bitch!Maria Hill in charge of all the worlds nukes[/sp]? That's even dumber than making all-powerful AI, I quite like the idea of AI. At least smart people who make AI leave safety measures.

Lady, who heads the organision with the capacity to launch ALL the nukes in the world? Jesus Chirst, SHIELD is dumb as fuck, both in the films and the cartoon. SHIELD have literally contributed nothing at all to the world at this point.

After episode 12 the whole series sucks.
Why? When does Ms Marvel appear? Do she and Wasp (and to a lesser degree, Ant-Man) get any cool moments at all in season 2? If not I might call it quits soon.
Terrible joke: Whoa are the oldest and most wise shapeshifters in the Marvel Universe?

Ms Marvel appears from the forth episode, and every Avenger gets some focus. Scott Lang becomes Ant-Man and has his own episode, with the Heroes for Hire.
Halfway through season two, the original producers get moved to Marvel Studios, and get replaced by Jeph Loeb and Man of Action (Ben 10). The writing goes down in quality, the show only wants to focus on the big four, despite the first half of the season introducing as many new characters as possible, and Loeb's hatred for continuity kicks in.
First 12 episodes are really good though.

So Marvel did a video showing off the Marvel area of Innovations in Disneyland:

It's clearly a temporary display... compare it to the announced [url=http://www.insidethemagic.net/2013/10/iron-man-experience-announced-for-hong-kong-disneyland-as-disneys-first-marvel-ride-to-open-in-2016-with-high-flying-thrills/]Iron Man Experience[/url] for Hong Kong Disneyland, [url=http://www.insidethemagic.net/2014/01/the-marvel-experience-touring-show-to-bring-4d-motion-ride-virtual-reality-in-s-h-i-e-l-d-setting-to-united-states-cities/]the two touring[/url] [url=http://www.insidethemagic.net/headlines/marvel-universe-live-to-pit-avengers-against-loki-in-nationwide-touring-show-with-high-tech-effects/]shows they're doing[/url] and the the [url=http://www.insidethemagic.net/2013/10/marvels-avengers-academy-debuts-on-disney-magic-cruise-with-andys-room-mickey-mouse-in-oceaneer-club-kids-area/]Avengers play area[/url] on the Disney Magic cruise line.
They're just getting the tip of their feet wet with Marvel stuff on the theme parks (all of the above plus the characters appearing for meet n' greets in the park), so it'll be a while once we see actual rides on the US Parks... especially in Orlando, where they're still bound to that deal that lets Universal have exclusivity for Marvel stuff on theme parks.

Also, getting a little bit of my Disney nerd side in here, it's kind of disappointing that they stuffed a minimized version of the bad replacement to EPCOT's CommuniCore in the building where the Carousel of Progress once stood.

what a bad chris hemsworth actor
also they should have done the costume rack for cap missing a certain costume
Don't really understand how some people think that films like Thor 2 and TWS are just supposed to be filler to entertain the masses until the next Avengers comes out. I know that personally I wouldn't have cared as much about the three main members in the first Avengers if they didn't have their own solo adventures to flesh out their characters.
well, they are technically filler for the next avengers flick
we just get to see what they do between major events, that's all.
I'd say less so TWS, because there's alot of things in that movie that will probably be very important in Age of Ultron.
[QUOTE=Pops;44619173]well, they are technically filler for the next avengers flick

So no essential character development and plot events happens at all in those Phase 2 films? [sp]Thor getting to stay on earth while Loki takes the Asgardian throne, the destruction of many of Stark's suits as well as his home, the collapse of SHIELD, the emergence of HYDRA, and the appearance of a possible future Captain America replacement[/sp] won't have some sort of ripple effect in the MCU? To me filler doesn't even need to be watched to better understand the big picture unless you absolutely love the characters, like The Incredible Hulk.
you're overstating things
all the phase 1 films setup for the avengers, but you can watch the avengers without having seen the first phase
i'm sure the same will be for avengers 2

Not really. You barely know anything about the characters and what their collective deals are in Avengers unless you've seen the other phase one films. At best you get vague explanations, but without seeing the phase one movies you're still in the dark for the most part. I'm guessing that Avengers 2 will be even worse in that aspect, especially since Captain America 2 is such a major game changer that the state of events come Avengers 2 will be absolutely nothing like in the first one, and people who don't see the phase 2 films will be absolutely lost without that knowledge.
