Agents of SHIELD

[Korly]

From wikipedia:

"The first alien race that invaded the Ultimate Marvel universe, was a race called Chitauri, and was opposed by The Ultimates.[96]
Another race called Skrulls, physically resembling the Skrulls of the mainstream Marvel universe appear later (led by the billion year old Skrull Emperor, Kl'rt); these Skrulls dislike being confused with the Chitauri, whom they call terrorists. They have extremely advanced technology, but have not been observed to shapeshift."


So the Skrulls in the Ultimate Universe are Skrulls.

Pre or post Ultimatum? If after, who cares?

Never bothered watching this before, but I just so happened to be home for tonight's season premiere so I decided to check it out. It's not bad so far, but as I expected, the actual SHIELD agents themselves seem to be the least interesting thing about the show. But some of the other stuff I've seen so far is kinda cool. Not sure if I'm going to be able to finish the episode as I have shit to do tonight, but overall it's not bad.

Nice WWII flashback in the beginning with the Hydra compound being taken down by Cap's entire team from the first movie (minus Cap, of course, but it's always great to see that hot actress that plays Peggy Carter). And I'm assuming the bald guy in the modern day is the Absorbing Man? EDIT: Yeah, it's him, they just called him by his real name (Carl Creel).

Didn't finish tonight's episode. How'd it end up?

Meh.

Seemed to be going in that direction when I left off, yeah. The team members seemed horribly generic and uninteresting.

Thought this season opening was much tighter in story and pacing than the whole previous season. Looking forward to more episodes but as previously stated, these guys need more personality.

Anyone else catch the mid season finale last night?

The entire first season and a half have been used as a super hero origin story. Skye = Quake. Also, Terrigen crystals and mist! Skye and Rania are at least part Inhuman and another Inhuman was shown in the last seconds of the episode.

Yeah caught it on Hulu. I'm not sure what to make of if. And fuck them for not coming back until March.
