  1. Trip was turned to stone by a fragment of the Obelisk. Like ever other non-Inhuman who touched it, he was turned to stone.
  2. Were did anyone get the idea that Trip is Lash? Trip got turned to stone by the Obolisk, crumbled, and we saw his stone remains removed from the temple. Even in the MCU, there's no coming back from that.
  3. Isn't Gamora the last of her race, Thanos having wiped all the others out?
  4. That wasn't a person, that was Joey's Teragenesis cocoon. Remember how Skye and Raina got cocooned last season, and Skye blew hers to little bits? Same thing happened to Joey.
  5. My bad, initially though they had the bus all over again. Not that giant spaceship-looking thing. How are they supposed to park it, anyway?
  6. You really think they only had one?
  7. Veronica Mars reference?
  8. Eh, I'm just going to keep calling her Skye.
  9. I think the show could be good, I liked the first episode. Head canon is that it's a Eureka/ Warehouse 13 sequel and they're using a benign artifact to get into dead people's minds. Wonder how long it'll be till somebody writes fanfic, a crossover with Warehouse 13 is practically pre-written for you. And yes, they need a better cover than "NSA-ish" Had a similar problem with Warehouse 13, Pete and Myka should have got FBI badges in place of Secret Service. FBI poking around isn't super odd, but SS deals with threats to the president and counterfeiting.
  10. They'll be on Netflix in a couple weeks. Or you could just employ less-legal methods to get them. Is suggesting that against site rules?
  11. Vasectomy won't bring Barry back from the dead (That's a sentence I never though I'd write...) On another site, me and some other guys noted that Eddie could have shot his balls off. My take on it:
  12. You know what I want Sara do once she's back? Tell Sin about her father. Honestly, she deserves to know how her father died, and I'm sure Oliver could bring the body back to Starling City for a proper burial.
  13. I'd imagine Rip finds Oliver and talks him and Barry into getting the crew together. It would be a lot easier to have the guys you want recruited by those they know and respect, instead of pulling a Kyle Reese and starting with "I'm from the future" So the team is put together by Rip, but Oliver and Barry help because they know who's who.
  14. Given SHIELD's already messed around with Darkforce (that's were Blackout got his powers in 1x18), wouldn't they know more about the weird monolith thing?
  15. Well yes, but he used SHIELD tech to do so.
  16. To be fair, sending a human after spilled instantly-lethal material with no idea where it is or if its still contained is a bad idea. Skye is the only know SHIELD Inhuman, and she has no SCUBA training. Besides, once you find them, what are you going to do with them?
  17. Look, the Index isn't inherently bad, it's just a comic book requirement to force conflict. We already track who has a medical license or a concealed-carry permit. We register cars and sex offenders. Why should we not track those who teleport, throw electricity, or vibrate buildings to bits? Any attempt to compare Mutants or Inhumans to the Jewish or homosexual persecution is stupid. First of all, most superheroes are that way voluntarily. Tony built his armor. Steve volunteered for the Super Soldier project. Most current Inhumans passed selection to get a chance at powers. Bruce and Skye were accidents, Thor is the only super born that way. Second, homosexuality doesn't let you manipulate metal, teleport, or any other superpower. Magneto wants to protect Mutants, but every single thing he does just reinforces the fact that Mutants are, in fact, a threat. Jaiying hasn't quite jumped of the cliff like that, but she's the one authorizing teleportation raids on neutral forces who distrust and massively outgun her. I think the Index is a good idea, there's just too much comic book history to allow it to be so.
  18. I really wish the League had an actual defined goal and/or purpose. They've spent years being built up as super badass, but they're just an ancient cult of murderous thugs with zero rules, reason, or honor (not like "honor" really means much). How are they still a secret? How do they think they're going to get away with whipping out an entire city? Starling City does not go down easily, and even if they did, the entire world will be hunting for the people responsible. Really hoping time dickery on The Flash will straighten some stuff out. Also, how is everyone running to Nanda Parbat and Starling City this fast all the time?
  19. The Icarus is a regular aircraft carrier. It only has the single flight deck and doesn't look anything like any of the Helicarriers.
  20. I really don't mind Bobbi praising Skye. For one thing, she's stuck in quarantine. For another, she got kidnapped by a murderous ex-team member, brought to HYDRA's evil lair, exposed to the Obelisk, and then there was an earthquake. Skye shot Ward, saved Coulson from a vengeful Hyde, survived the Obelisk, and manged to emerge unharmed from the earthquake. Simmons has never been much for love and forgiveness. She straight-up threatened to kill Ward and framed a fellow HYDRA coworker as the mole. Besides, given Raina went from normal human to porcupine-esce murderer after exposure to an object that kills pretty much everyone it touches, killing her is a completely logical action. And this after two seasons of seeing mad science kill or main people, plus watching Trip's shattered remains wheeled out of the Kree city Also, it was less "shoot on sight" and more "We may need to kill her, and it might not be bad". Simmons is genuinely concerned Raina might be Patient Zero for some alien plague-which given the events of "FZZT", is very reasonable.
  21. Nope, Peggy dumps it off the Brooklyn Bridge at the end of the season.
  22. To be honest, I'm incredibly disappointed she's just a Muggle. You do not make Alexandra Udinov a Muggle.
  23. Eh, he didn't start bad. The Rock was good, and I liked The Island and I Am Number Four. Even the first Transformers was good It's just that the Transformers movies got bad fast, and Sam was utterly useless despite being nominally the main character. And now he's producing garbage like the Purge movies and ​Ouija. I'm just praying that his rumored Ghost Recon film never happens
  24. I personally like the idea that Natasha really was born in 1984, because she's actually Jordan Two Delta from the 2005 movie The Island. The original was born in the 1950s or 60s, and the Soviets commissioned Jordan Two Delta as a backup/spare parts clone. Come 2005, Natasha is working for SHIELD and want to retire, so they break Jordan out and she becomes the Black Widow. Two Delta's original, Sarah Jordan, never shows up in the movie and is a model, similar to Natasha's cover in Iron Man 2. Sure, she supposedly had a son, but SHIELD should be able to get a child actor for a 30-second videophone call. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Island_(2005_film) The Island as an MCU prequel would also explain the Klonieg brothers-Fury commissioned the creation of agents loyal only to him, and had them all be identical to screw with everyone else.
