I loved that opening. "Here we are in space. Oh, an advanced space ship, how do we get access to one of these? And whose ship is it? Huh, a cross, someone from earth was here, and why is it floating like that? Can't be good--oh, dear, explosions" followed by "Here's the person who owns that cross, how in the world do we get from here to there?"

I am just all over the story construction this season. They're packing so much into it. And I am just thrilled as fuck that Gemma overturns all the TV drama tropes of Not Talking About It to go to Fitz and say what she wants and ask if he wants it too.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I don't think the space adventure goes well for Yo-Yo. The first thing we saw floating inside the spaceship (before the cross) were big red globs that were likely blood.

ETA: I've been skeptical about the Fitz/Simmons ship, but they've been so damn awesome and mature about it that I want to pull for them on that basis alone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In other news - in re Agent Carter, there was discussion of The Purple Dress. I did some googling and there WERE two purple dresses. This was the one she was wearing in the desert; Another view. It may be a coat over a dark dress. This is the one she was wearing at the end - lighter over something white.

Excellent detecting!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

That ending: WHAT. (I mean, I knew he'd be there, but still: WHAT.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I feel like they are giving away too much. Leave something for the actual movie!

If they (spoiler font for content of the trailer) kill off Rhodey in a movie that is not even an Iron Man film, I will be VERY UPSET. My concern is that they might be resorting to the Law of Conservation of Black Male Characters (like they did in mid S2 finale of AoS when they killed off Tripp) now that they have Sam Wilson and Black Panther.

I think there's some faking out going on. The trailers for Winter Soldier all had the "your work shaped the century, it's time for you to do it again," and people thought it was addressed to Steve.

Hey. New board.

Yeah I have heard rumors that the whole civil war aspect is actually a B plot and there is a big villain that hasn't been shown at all that actually drives the movie.

Crossbones is in this, and I haven't seen him in the trailers.

If Tony--or the armor--has been taken over, then a beatdown would be necessary.

Hey. New board.

The big bad I've heard rumored is a Baron Zemo or some such. Don't know who that is in comics. Crossbones does appear very briefly in the trailer fighting cap.
