Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 5 Trailer - More Space, And Were Those Kree?

November 21, 2017

Yup, I'm pretty sure those were Kree. Still tying to pump up excitement for Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D season 5, this new trailer dropped, & with some pretty visuals, cryptically tells us nothing really. I did however ket me know I was wrong, we're probably not going to get Agents of S.W.O.R.D.. Instead, it looks like the team is held captive in space by some sort of cult? I did get that they have to escape this space station, prison, day spa, whatever it is. Anyway, we should get some answers to what looks like it could be an action packed space romp December 1st with a two hour premier. I'm actualky hoping this puts some consistency this show being good. It ended on a real high note with me, & trailer definitely does it justice. Hope the story can keep up, the idol worship of Coulson makes me want a little more explanation. What did y'all think though? Put it in the comments, like, & share.

Marvel Gives A Sneak Peek At Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season Five's First Episode

November 17, 2017

I have a love, hate, love relationship with Marvel's Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.. I really dug the lead-in to Captain America: Winter Soldier & I liked the first intro into the race of Inhumans. I hated where it led with HIVE. Thought Ghost Rider should've had his own thing, it felt forced into S.H.I.E.L.D.. LMD bored the hell out of me, but then led into Agents of HYDRA, which I really got into. In fact, that restored my faith in the show. That pretty much led us to where we are now... stranded in space as of the last episode. (Does this mean Agents of S.W.O.R.D. now?) In this sneak peek, it's definitely safe to assume we are still there, as there's a pretty spaceship-looking scenery their running through. Oh yeah, & there's the crazy looking, I don't even know what in the blue hell that is, alien chasing them through said scenery. Anyway, I'm intrigued. Wondering what that alien is to tell you the truth. Anyway, anyone else held on long enough to still have some interest in this season? Put it in the comments, like, & share.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Has Announced Date For Season 5 & My Reception So Far

October 9, 2017

Me & Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. have a strange relationship. I don't hate it, every now & then I really like it, & a few times, I've loved it. Season 5 will be coming at us December 1st & it's picking up where season 4 left off. This has a (SPOILER), but if you still haven't watched season 4, I doubt you're going to give a damn about season 5 even if I tell you it picks up in space. Anyway, it picks up in space. Which they let it be known at NYCC (with a showing of the first 20 minutes to the luck attendees) that the Kree will be returning this time which I'm kind hoping will put the show back on it's original track. I liked the first season as it basically was used in the background to set up Hydra taking over S.H.I.E.L.D.. I thought using the show to get further inside the movies was cool. The second involved the remnants of S.H.I.E.L.D. trying to get at HYDRA with the Coulson also dealing with the Kree blood that brought him back to life & the emergence of super-powered Inhumans. The third season is where I almost lost interest. Coulson started to build a covert team of Inhumans. Meanwhile, Hydra was looking for an ancient Inhuman leader Hive. For me that one just kept getting worse. Season 4 featured Ghost Rider, which I thought was going to be a train wreck. In a way it was. It proved they could've done a really bad ass Ghost Rider series. Instead we got Ghost Rider thrown into Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with them almost taking a back seat. This all some how ended off with the emphasis on a LMD, or Life Model Decoy. This all made for a strange season for me. I watched it, & I didn't hate. It was enjoyable, it just felt clustered all together weird. To finish the strangeness, the long season was ended with the LMDs hooking everyone up to a "Matrix" like place that was taken over by Hydra. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed that part of the season. Even if it was a really eccentric road to get there. How do you end a crazy ride like that you ask? Cliffhanger, Coulson wakes up in space. With the strong end to that season I'm definitely still on board. I would really love a little more of the movie universe pop in again. Even if it's just in the far background, I might even take some cameos from the Netflix cast if possible. Anyway, what do y'all think of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Put it in the comments, like, & share. Oh, & while you're at it check out this Season 4 Blooper Real Marvel put up:

Michelle Rejwan Now Senior VP Live Action Development And Production For Lucasfilm

Hollywood Reporter reports Michelle Rejwan is now the Senior VP of Live Action Development & Production. She will oversee new feature films as well Disney+ series while still producing with president Kathleen Kennedy. That seems like a hefty responsibility to drop on someone who's previous credits at Lucasfilm are producing The Force Awakens & The Rise of Skywalker. Kennedy really sees something in her though, having “seen first-hand her skills collaborating with writers and directors, and I've been incredibly impressed with her creative skills and her ability to manage the complexity surrounding these massive projects.” Can she be the Feige of Star Wars? Time will tell. After the hate Kennedy got from the last installment, which I loved by the way, one could think this is just to give her a scapegoat if things don't go as well over the next few projects. Curious to see how much influence this winds up having as a whole. What do y'all think? Trust in Kennedy? Or do you think maybe a more vetted choice would have been better?

Disney Reveals Name of Tokyo DisneySea's 8th Port

After breaking ground in what is to become Tokyo DisneySea's 8th port, we now have its official name. Fantasy Springs will be the title, but that's not all Dismey released on the subject. They also released some beautiful day & night concept art depicting the look of the new lands. Oriental land is investing 250 Billion Yen on this project that will feature lands themed to Frozen, Tangled, & Peter Pan. Frozen's land of post film Arendelle will feature an attraction that tells the story of Elsa and her beloved sister, Anna. Sounding like the familiar Epcot ride, suests will board boats and experience the sisters’ heartfelt journey, enjoying songs from the film, and encountering surprising thrills. There will also be a restaurant set inside the beautiful Arendelle Castle. Tangled's land will naturally feature Rapunzel’s tower rising above the forest. It will also include an boat attraction where guests will board gondolas for a romantic boat tour of Rapunzel’s “Best Day Ever” as she journeys with Flynn to the lantern festival. Flickering lanterns illuminate the attraction’s climactic scene while Rapunzel and Flynn sing an iconic song from the film. The pand will also feature a restaurant, inspired by the hideout of the band of thugs who appeared in the film in the "I've Got A Dream" sequence. Neverland will also be home to two attractions and a restaurant. Featuring landmarks including verdant mountains, Captain Hook’s pirate ship and Skull Rock. One attraction will fly over the jungles of Neverland into a battle with Captain Hook and his crew of pirates to rescue Wendy’s younger brother, John, who has been kidnapped by Captain Hook and his pirates. You'll board boats and follow the Lost Boys down a river until Tinker Bell sprinkles the boats with pixie dust, & you take off flying through Neverland on an adventure that featuring iconic music and dynamic 3D imagery of the characters from the film. The second attraction immerses us in the oversized world of Pixie Hollow, while the restaurant is inspired by the Lost Boys and their hideout. There will also be a new Disney Hllyel in the park. Themed to Disney fantasy, it will rise above and around the magical springs that serve as the core of the new themed port’s story. Offering 475 deluxe-type and luxury-type guest rooms, this park facing hotel will also feature a merchandise shop that helps share the story of the magical springs. One day I'll make it out here to see all the amazingly beautiful things TokyoSea has to offer. Luckily, I have one more reason to postpone that adventure until this amazing new addition is done.
