Marvel's The Inhumans

[Thomas Seitz]

No one accused the writers or the production crew of having much brains doing this one..

[Zzorn]

I got caught up yesterday as I had two or three shows recorded.. I must admit I watched them all on fast forward... what. a. painful. f!@~ing. show. to. watch. No really. Felt like punching the TV at least twice.

It is thought that this isotope could provide safer nuclear energy in a fusion reactor, since it is not radioactive and would not produce dangerous waste products.

This sort of thing just goes to show the ruling class's idiocy.

Oh look, you have a potential Seer? I know, we should have this guy who can see glimpses of the future with no physical augmentations go work in the mines!

You know, instead of, say, the fusion power plant where he can touch each coworker on the way in to work and find out if the place might undergo a meltdown or something due to some missed detail.

I don’t think they knew he was a seer if I remember correctly. Only Maximus picked up on that and then kept it hidden (I think, not sure).

IIRC, they also didn't send him straight to the mines, but referred him to the genetic council for further testing.

Presumably they would have figured out his power eventually, had Maximus not intervened.

Well, that was a finale I guess. Sort of anti-climactic.

[Thomas Seitz]

Did they at least get Medusa to wiggle her hair more?

[Vidmaster7]

Haven't seen it yet but I wasn't expecting much your comment is lowering my expectations that much more.

Spoiler:

Attilan is not a place. Its a people.

This might have been better served if it had come out a week ago - simultaneously to another kingdom being destroyed and its survivors heading to Earth.

Is the new enemy not the Kree? Or could it be the big bad of the forthcoming Carol Danvers movie: The Skrulls?

Either way, I'm betting it will tie in with AoS. Three Weeks!

[Thomas Seitz]

Green,

It might be either or it might be Thanos. I mean there's always Thanos.

No. They spent the special effects budget like week 2. Anyone without powers that can be simulated with practical effects (like Gorgon's shockwave or Black Bolt blowing stuff up) are pretty much out of luck.

In any case, it wasn't a bad show overall, it was just sort of there. I hoped for more and got only OK. If they get anymore of a run I hope they tighten things up.

As far as Agents of Shield goes, some of the aliens they look to encounter are Blue Kree, and some look suspiciously like Brood -- a few scenes in the preview of something not unlike an Alien (from the franchise) crawling along a wall.

Uggh! The finale was just as horrible if not more so than the rest of the show. Nothing climactic happened other than the super engineered destruction of the city for no really good reason.

1) no final battle worth watching
2) no mention of who their enemy was that they had teased
3) blondie scientist friend (I assume the character had a name, but it really didn't matter) went to her work to find 1400 inhumans a place to live, and talk to "the boss" off camera. Did she work for the government, a private corporation? Who the hell was "the boss" that had a spare parcel of land lying around like that? Who cares, certainly lets not tell the fans.
4) the super lame rip-off of Thor Ragnarok's ending
5) the whole set up of Maximus getting another terrigenesis and getting power - never happened.

[Thomas Seitz]

Joel,

Yeah that last one REALLY bothered me. Also the fact they blew the FX budget before they got to the end.

Knight,

I'm not yet convinced we'll get Brood...but maybe Badoons?

[Vidmaster7]

Well IT finally ended and full disappointment is finally upon me. So basically hope for a reboot.

[Thomas Seitz]

Reboot and full movie done right.

[Vidmaster7]

So full movie followed by series tied into agents of shield? I can dig it.

[Thomas Seitz]

Vid,

Honestly I'd like it if they had tied Agents in with other things...but maybe that will just be a pipe dream.

[Vidmaster7]

I want them to keep up with the other super hero cameo's ghost rider made the last season so much better.

[GreenDragon1133]

I know there will be a SHIELD agent in an upcoming movie, Ant-Man and Wasp IIRC. Not anyone from the show though.

[Thomas Seitz]

Greenie,

Jimmy Woo isn't technically SHIELD any more. He's got his own agency.

Vid,

I admit, I want more of MCU Jamie Reyes Ghost Rider.
