5 pretty easily takes the worst season award for me, which is a shame given 4 was far and away the best.

The first arc in space just dragged on and on, and the second arc, while better by mere virtue of being on Earth in the present day, was still bogged down by the time travel/time loop plot they made the focal point of absolutely everything.

From a production point of view, the seasons slashed budget REALLY showed. There were like... three sets all season, and they just kept using them over and over. And its not like they were visually appealing sets dull grey hallways everywhere, episode after episode.

5 had its moments, with the late season Fitz episode being a real standout. And I appreciated the shows commitment to bringing back and resolving long dormant plot threads. But on the whole this season was a total miss for me.

See, that's what I'm talking about. And I wouldn't even mind the reused assets if they were good and not the dark dull hallways they actually were. Especially since season 4 was a cool concept with the 3 arcs coming together, and made up for how season 3 ended up being.

What was annoying about the plot?

I mean... the better question would be why did you like it, and how would you compare it to the previous seasons?

Games like ac are kinda built to be eye candy though aren't they, so that's not so strange. Also I'm planning on playing those ps4 ac games myself, getting back into the series and all. There's 3 right, unity, syndicate, and origins?

As the Time Chasers MST3K has said:

He's dead, but don't worry. They have a spare.

Anyone wondering about IW connections you'll be glad to know that the new season won't come out until after Part 2 of IW. Yep.

In the end, I stuck with this season, and it did have some nice moments, but honestly I feel like character-wise this is all stuff we've seen before. We kinda need to stop the focus on the Fitzsimmons dynamic because it frankly has run its course after five seasons. :-/

I don't see anything wrong with fitz simmons. It's everything else about this season, mainly the plot that's annoying.

Welp saw the finale. Meh.

Still unsure what happened to Fitz at the end there?

he died

The frozen one is still alive and not needed for the future anymore so they're going to get him

Ah right because two people can be around at the same time apparently. God I hate time travel crap.

So there's no blink out of existence thing for that fitz and deke or... ugh I don't even want to think about this stuff

The fuck, now Talbot's the destroyer of worlds? What even is this nonsense. Well if they were going for twist no one was expecting they did it. I'm sure Talbot's happy to be having such a bigger role in the show now lol.

And now he's being manipulated by the aliens, the Kassius Kree no less. 2 episodes to go, I wonder if the big bad is gonna be fricking Talbot like how last season it was Darkhold human Aida with superpowers. And christ does he look dopey as fuck

I only recently saw it, but remember when it came out people were saying it's awful and shits all over the franchise. Based on the poster with the red background and Luke the sky walker looking all sith like with that hood, I assumed that the twist was gonna be that Luke was the villain big bad and long time fans hated it. Like he was the evil mastermind or something.

i agree.
i feel like while luke being the big bad was also shitting all over the franchise, it's still better than what we have on TLJ,

Yeah of course it does, but a good rule is that if you're gonna shit all over a franchise, you may as well take it all the way instead of just being awfully bleh with it.

I have problems with the movie, but I definitely don't get why people were surprised about Luke. It seemed pretty obvious what he was going to be about when they showed the first trailer.

ANd what was he?

I have to say it's disappointing that this wasn't what ended up happening in the movie. Instead he was just kinda there, and the movie was just meh. It didn't even have something like that.

Late watchers, did anyone else get that vibe about the Luke thing?

Huh it seems to have been mutual. Well up until she accidentally killed him lol. I do feel sorry for him, I weirdly liked him over his season 3 appearance.

How did Hale get away. And they really didn't secure the magical transportation device (or hell, Hale's entire base after they captured her) when they had the chance? Boy maybe Shield does suck

Dried fruit tend to have a high concentration of sugar, which is obviously not great.

Basically raisins neither taste good nor are even healthy! I'm not even against products like oatmeal raisin cookies, but really just wanted to point out the lack of benefits to raisins.

I still can't get over how good it was to see Raina again, even if it was just for a couple of seconds.

Is it implied that the blonde big lipped teen girl is using seduction to get von strucker's kid on her side? I'm surprised he'd fall for a tactic like that just because she bat her eyelashes at him

With so close to the travel date, it means that there's probably not gonna be that many people on the plane. Empty flights are the best, you can almost guarantee that no one will bother you like being loud, turning on the horrible light, etc etc.

You could even relax in economy class with a half empty plane (though I'd still rather choose business of course)

For a long flight, that's always nice.

could you imagine morgan freeman harassing/feeling up someone's behind in that trademark voice of his, describing what he's doing? It would be something quite odd in a way

I haven't watched it, am excited to, but without Anthony Hopkins a big part of the show is lost. Also it's hard to follow up with an epic twist as the first season. And they should do that Japan samurai world they teased because that would be cool with all the swords and shit.

Oh and another thing that annoyed me, more Hydra nonsense. That was supposed to be the one moderate silver lining from season 3. I mean, who even funds Hale's operation?

Will hold off on most of my questions though, until I watch the full season and get a full picture of everything.

Yeah I guess I'm hoping that by the end of the season everything will retroactively be good because the finale is killer.

This season has a kind of finality to it though, a sort of "everyone dies and that's how the show ends" feel to it but the show was renewed for season 6 so I am eager to find out what they are planning on doing the next 6 episodes.

Creel became good again and broke them out.

Holy shit at Raina cameo again, the good old days, I miss her.

It seems they really are bringing back the unresolved Gravitron plotline from season 1, that's a plus I guess. Other stuff like over reliance on a fortune teller, not so much. I was already ambivalent about the fortune telling in season 3, but now they dialed up to 11 here.

https://imgur.com/0UFI0T9

As a start I absolutely loathe the whole outer space first half of the show, and I loathe outer space shit in general. But adding time travel shenanigans? It made me feel like maybe the odd numbered seasons of agents of shield are destined to be weaker than the even numbered seasons.

However, one thing that I found interesting was when they brought back Gravitonium on that space station. We hadn't seen it since season 1 so that was fun. Ever since last year or the one before I was wondering if they were ever going to bring back Gravitron which they teased eons ago, and now it almost seems like they will.

ONly on episode 16 now though we'll see. But that's the only part that made me go "huh, interesting" because I absolutely loathe the rest of the season, it features almost every element of media I despise, chiefly being the time travel shit.

Yeah I was wondering if he was semi reluctant to even fight killmonger and possibly had feelings of guilt, which made him hesitant when fighting. Just as an explanation for him losing.

A tattoo of vibranium, I wonder how that works. Kind looks like a branding, which usually has negative connotations to it when it comes to people.
---

https://imgur.com/0UFI0T9

But anyway the movie was damn good. I liked the soundtrack as well.

Why did Black Panther even lose the first time against Killmonger? Also I keep forgetting they're cousins, since there seems like such an age gap between them. Michael B Jordan just seems like a kid compared to T'Challa

I wonder what that lip thing they have even is.

Finally watched this movie, been dying to see it for months.

The story is so simple and yet the visuals, acting, even the cinematography was great!

I'm surprised that M'Baku wasn't even a villain in this movie, in fact he actually helped. The entire story threw me for a loop, I thought Klaw was going to be the big bad but he wasn't, it was the kid of the brother of the king. Still don't understand why the brother sold Wakanda out to someone vile like Klaw though, if his intentions were so honorable. Weird.

And no mention of the avengers or anything else, it was pretty self contained. I wonder what this will bode with Wakanda sharing their technology.

I believe pre-release there were clips about Arkham Knight having a connection with Batman and Jason Todd was literally the first thing everyone thought of.

Not only that, but angsty, edgy bad guy. If it wasn't Jason Todd it would have to be a completely new character lol

But that's the thing, Rocksteady claimed it was a completely new character. Or at least the arkham knight was.

The Batmobile was boring. The villain interactions weren't nearly as interesting as Arkham City. And the "big reveal" was disappointing.

It has its moments and its still worth playing. It's just a clear step down from Arkham City.

And yet we waited 4 years... for this? They didn't have to release it if it wasn't ready.

I'd never even heard of that dude, I thought the only robins were dick grayson and tim drake, oh and that son of batman that's really annoying.

That's why. Jason Todd in the comics was a Robin that was killed by the Joker. He later gets resurrected via a Lazarus Pit and blames Batman for not saving him. He takes up the mantle of being the Red Hood and becomes a vigilante of his own, killing criminals with guns to prove that Bruce's methods are inferior.

Even knowing that, how did people make the jump from Arkham knight to Jason Todd? Was it before or after the harley quinn segment with the escaped joker victims and bruce reminiscing about jason todd being captured (if he wasn't there how exactly does he know what happened by the way)

Because some claim to have gotten it before the game even released if you can believe it.

The problem is I can't remember which was the firefox version number before the recent change that overhauled firefox again and made it garbage (again) and even worse than it was before.

This is now Firefox 60. I think it's apparently called Firefox Quantum and is a completely overhauled version of firefox. And even crappier.
