Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D – Quick Thoughts

20130511061034!Agents_of_SHIELD_logo

 

Today was the premier of ABC’s new television show, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., from producer Joss Whedon, and is basically a spin off or a tie in to the Marvel movies, and I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Cobie Smulders reprises her role as Agent Maria Hill, as well as Clark Gregg returning as Agent Phil Coulson.  They touched on a bit on what happened to Phil after the event’s of NY, but they elude to the fact about ‘Tahiti‘.  Great hook if you ask me, as it’s still has me wondering what it is.  Anyway, I am just glad there is something new to watch, and something geeky too.  The cast I feel was fairly strong, and Chloe Bennet who plays Skye is just all kinds of cuteness.

Not My Photo – Chloe Bennet – just gorgeous

 

Ming Na‘s take down of the cop poser was pretty cool, albeit too quickly, but still cool.  She did play as Chun-Li back in the day before settling in as an ER Doctor.  Pacing of the show was good, as well as the set up to what the main subject matter is for the season (the centipede).  I like how it tied in the stuff that was in Iron Man 3.   I wonder if they will tie in stuff from the show in upcoming movies, and kind of continue back to the show.  hmm

Anyway, I am so looking forward to this show, and I am hoping it stays strong.  Something to look forward to at the early end of the week.

So I got word this weekend that MGS patriarch Hideo Kojima actually thought about removing one of the most iconic elements from MGSV: Ground Zeroes: the exclamation “!” mark altogether. My initial thought was “NOOO!!! (Alert!).”

Earworm: Imagine Dragons – Radioactive

One of the newer bands that has come out recently that I actually like.  They have a nice beat, and doesn’t sound like the rest of them.  Anyway, their video for Radioactive is pretty weird.  It has Lou Diamond Phillips as the ring leader for some underground stuffed animal/puppet fighting ring.  Anyway, watch for yourself if you haven’t already.

While perusing the internetz I came across an interesting game called SUPERHOT. It’s an FPS game, though not a typical shooter where you run around shooting baddies blindly. It comes with a bit of strategy. You see, the game mechanic is that TIME MOVES WHEN YOU MOVE and TIME STOPS WHEN YOU STOP. (more…)
