[QUOTE=SteakStyles;40611667]Even though Disney owns both Marvel and ABC(and therefore will probably heavily hype this and such), I'll give it like 6 episodes before its cancelled and replaced with "Extreme Celebrity Knitting" or some other "reality" competition they filmed in an afternoon. Yeah, its not something that interests me, but the example I gave seems to be whats been happening with TV in general recently.[/QUOTE] Hey if Lost can overstay its welcome on ABC, this has a chance.
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;40606065]This show might be fun. Phil Coulson owns. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAMgkpQYOSQ[/media][/QUOTE] If that's indicitive of his character in this series, then this show is going to be fucking great. Come on, it's created by Joss Whedon and is run by his buddies. If course it will be fucking great.
[QUOTE=Fangz;40612917]Hey if Lost can overstay its welcome on ABC, this has a chance.[/QUOTE] LOST was a good show :colbert:
[QUOTE=SuddenImpact;40605445]Will this include all of SHIELD like the helicarrier and guests like Samuel l Jackson and some of the other heroes? (Probably not enough money for that)[/QUOTE] You could probably expect SLJ to make infrequent appearances. As for the Helicarrier, Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis didn't exactly have stellar CGI budgets and pulled off some pretty impressive crap. Also keep in mind that this ties into [I]the most successful movie of all time[/I]. Odds are there's going to be lots of money put into this to ensure its success. And not to mention JOSS FUCKING WHEDON. [editline]12th May 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=SuddenImpact;40605563]Extremis[/QUOTE] :suicide:
Loki actually stabbed a Doombot
I'm kind of hoping that Coulson was a robot the whole time, it would fit his personality at least.
I don't get why people think this is going to flop, The Avengers was a massive hit. This will probably be one of the most watched series on TV next to Game of Thrones.
I sort of hope he stays dead so I can actually take some rendition of a Marvel universe seriously.
Bleh looks like NCIS:Marvel Edition especially after reading the character profiles. I don't care about a bunch of college kids in their hip new clothes, I wanted a bunch of suits and some in the jumpsuits. Coulson looks like he'll be the only redeeming factor of this.
[QUOTE=kaskade700;40615410]I sort of hope he stays dead so I can actually take some rendition of a Marvel universe seriously.[/QUOTE] In the universe of comic based people they defy everything with some crazy reason. I'm sure in the show they will explain how he survived.

[QUOTE=DELL;40616127]In the universe of comic based people they defy everything with some crazy reason. I'm sure in the show they will explain how he survived.[/QUOTE] I don't know if you supported my argument or not, I was referring to the act of killing a character becoming meaningless.
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;40613352]LOST was a good show :colbert:[/QUOTE] Lost was really good, but the ending was terrible.
[QUOTE=kaskade700;40616266]I don't know if you supported my argument or not, I was referring to the act of killing a character becoming meaningless.[/QUOTE] That's just a fact when it comes to comic book universes, just like when the universe resets for some crazy reason.
[QUOTE=kaskade700;40615410]I sort of hope he stays dead so I can actually take some rendition of a Marvel universe seriously.[/QUOTE] There's literally guys with lightning hammers smacking the shit out of giant space worms. I think you can handle one resurrection. [editline]12th May 2013[/editline] Which was even implied that he wasnt actually dead, even.
They're released a short teaser. [video=youtube;pFZE3W1SF_Q]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFZE3W1SF_Q[/video] I'm hoping the guy right at the beginning turns out to be Luke Cage. MCU needs more street level heroes. Ah thanks for that.

[QUOTE=AaronM202;40617869]Black guy with enough strength/endurance to withstand falling from the top of a building and leave a dent in the ground.

Also I wouldn't mind seeing someone like Taskmaster appear as a villain.
They had plans for a Luke Cage movie awhile back, even started casting i think, but it fell through last i checked. This show seems like a great way to introduce some more obscure marvel characters to see how people will react to them, and if its good, make a movie.
Joss back on TV. This is gonna rock.
[QUOTE=Takuat;40617925]Also I wouldn't mind seeing someone like Taskmaster appear as a villain.[/QUOTE] If they do, they better not puss out and change his stupid costume. I like my Taskmaster with the ridiculous cape, hood and skull mask, thank you very much.
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;40618901]If they do, they better not puss out and change his stupid costume.

I hope they can use this as a way to have properties they can't make movies as a way to establish them in the universe.
[QUOTE=Fangz;40619446]I hope they can use this as a way to have properties they can't make movies as a way to establish them in the universe.[/QUOTE] I hope to see some lesser known Marvel heroes. [editline]12th May 2013[/editline] Or villains.
I was hoping for Michael Jai White as Luke Cage tbh he would be ~the best~
[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;40622336]I was hoping for Michael Jai White as Luke Cage tbh he would be ~the best~[/QUOTE] Michael Jai White as any muscular bearded black man from a comic or game would be the best.
