Jossverse 1: Emotional Resonance & Rocket Launchers  

TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.

Ward's kind of hot when he's evil.

That was a genuine OMG moment.

And Phil and the Koenigs had the helicarrier! So I'm guessing Agents is part of the MCU!

I did not expect that from Jiaying. So that was a HS moment. Also Bobbi getting taken down by Kara & Ward, who had a long game under way.

So basically nobody noticed when May took out two separate Quinjets at one time?

I almost feel bad for Raina: she was right! But she'd poisoned the well so thoroughly that it was wasted effort to try to do anything about it. I wonder if this means she'll have to team up with Skye at some point, once Skye figures out Jiaying is actually the warmonger.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Skye might not. It's not as if the folks at SHIELD think Gonzales had warm fuzzy feelings about the Inhumans; him deciding to start firing during talks after his speeches about the dangers they pose might seem all too plausible.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So basically nobody noticed when May took out two separate Quinjets at one time?

Yeah, I found that hard to believe too. Who did Coulson and Gonzales think was piloting the other one?

Having not seen the movie yet, I am now spoiled for the fact that:

THERE IS A MOVIE IN THEATERS NOW ABOUT ULTRON BY THE WAY DID WE MENTION ULTRON YET BECAUSE THE MOVIE THAT YOU SHOULD GO SEE IN THEATERS IS ABOUT ULTRON AND ALSO TONY STARK IS IN IT SO GIVE US MONEY ULTRON ULTRON ULTRON HEY LOOK THERE'S GOING TO BE A HELICARRIER IN THE MOVIE ABOUT ULTRON WHICH YOU SHOULD GO SEE IN THEATERS.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That...was never a question? It always was?

Yes! Both of those were nice surprises.

I was actually having hopes for Gonzales, though the Secret Weapon had me worried, naturally. Still, not the same kind of scars, dude.

There have been interviews with Joss, I believe, where he seems to resent Agents and tries to downplay its relevance to the movies.

I just realized: May's essential conflict seems to be tied to the fact she had to kill a kid at the same time she was wanting to start a family with Dr. Hotty, so I'm starting to see some annoying parallels here.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

he seems to resent Agents

Must be awkward at family get-togethers.

Yeah, that was in the context of Coulson, where having the Avengers know he was alive in the movies would be an issue. But there's never been a question that any of the Marvel TV shows weren't connected to the movies. They're engineered to be!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I just realized: May's essential conflict seems to be tied to the fact she had to kill a kid at the same time she was wanting to start a family with Dr. Hotty, so I'm starting to see some annoying parallels here.

Starting? I've been annoyed at Joss for putting babies and kids everywhere ever since Angel took his baby home with him. You're a vampire and a Champion of Whatever Powers-That-Be Blahblah, you can't raise a kid! Darla's pregnancy was one of the best storylines ever on either Buffy or Angel, but they should've introduced, early on, someone trustworthy Angel could give the baby to, to raise, because Angel went south in a nosedive as soon as the baby came home with him. And now AoU is full of babies. Joss needs to go home and play with his kids and breathe for a while, until he can write something without putting his family issues and his baby fetish into it.
