Sif is going to be in an episode of Agents of Shield!!! So excited!!!

It's not like Hawkeye and Black Widow had much of a back story. :P

I need to catch up on AoS… and watch AHtK, then I'll comment on 'em.

That's true but it's easily explainable by just saying they're agents of shield. If two mutants the audience has no knowledge about show up at the door of avengers tower, it would seem like just a way to introduce new characters to people who don't know who they are.

Sif? Okay, I'm interested. Hopefully she gets a bunch of screen time and cool moments, I felt like she doesn't get enough time in the Thor movies.

Me too! I love her as Lady Sif. It's said she comes to earth with a "very specific mission." It probably has to with either the clairvoyant or maybe even skye? Maybe Skye is from another world Or maybe Sif is skye's mother!! Haha jk. But since they're bringing in a cosmic character, it definitely broadens just who this clairvoyant could be!

[The Legonater]

Sick, I keep feeling we don't get enough Sif screentime.

I feel like audience members insisting that Hawkeye and Black Widow are 'lame' would feel less so if they knew their backstories. I mean, Black Widow has a lot of Captain America-esque abilities/training, and nobody thinks he's lame.

[Tanma]

My personal theory on the Clairvoyant is that they are actually a time traveler. That is how they knew about Extremis, the Super Soldier Serum, and that Coulson die but not how he was resurrected. Because knew history, not that they had psychic powers.

My complaints about Hawkeye are mostly that he never seems to do anything really important that only he can do. He seems underused, and he doesn't seem to have the personality of his comic counterpart.

I sort of doubt that the higher ups would allow a time traveller as a component of AoS, simply because of the Avengers franchise. They would probably want to keep the door open for Kang the Conqueror after phase 3. And his whole Schlick is Time Travel.

[The_Creator]

To be fair though, the two of them don't exactly have powers that people will expect to be explained.

I realize that was not very well thought out now. :P

Sif appearing in AoS is awesome news, and Stan Lee is appearing in the episode after that one.

Clairvoyant could be MODOK?

Interesting theory. I just want him to be revealed and for everyone to freak out over who it is! And I just find hawkeye boring not only due to his lack of a backstory but because archers are just getting too much exposure in the media these days making hawkeye not as original as another potentially more interesting character. I think he should quit the avengers to honest or get a bigger role. I don't think he's important enough to die at this point so it's best to keep him alive because no one is going to even feel the slightest bit sad if ultron were to blow his head off. I know whedon said hawkeye would have a bigger role but I mean, how big is that really going to be with 7 other heroes on screen?

[BrickG]

I hate it when Stan Lee appears in things. He adds nothing but a pointless cameo by a d00d who takes far too much credit for stuff he almost never has anything to do with. He's a figurehead and salesman who convinced everyone he's amazing but if you look at what he's actually done you'll realize he didn't do most of it and what he did often sucked (really, comics from way back then were freakin' terrible).

The reason I think it is possible is Kang is originally a Fantastic Four villain, and may belong to Fox.

Not dealing with random negativity right now.

[Mr Man]

My belief is that The Clairvoyant is The Leader. It seems unlikely that another Hulk film will be made soon and if it is any references to the last one will likely be slim, it seems like a good way to tie up that dangling plot thread.

[Tanma]

I have heard that theory, and I have to say I like it. That cliffhanger drove me crazy, so I would be glad to see him used. The question is if Fury's Big Week is still canon, because he was taken into custody during that series.

I think most TV series / Films would ignore tie in comics if necessary. People should't have to change their consumption habits just to follow a story.

[Tanma]

I hope they don't get rid of it, as it is the only reason I know when all the movies take place.

Here is something to consider, if it is the Leader, could he perhaps communicate while in custody? Like his brain can signal phones over long distances?

[Starrocks923]

Sif is way underused, so a role in AoS is quite welcome. I rolled my eyes when I heard Alexander's Marvel contract kept her from being Wonder Woman, because her role in Thor was so small.

Heck, here's to hoping Jane Foster dies in AoU, and Thor goes back to Asgard with Sif for Thor 3. What kind of cosmic warrior would take a scientist over a warrior who has fought beside him all his life?

Claivoyant is starting to get more important. Did he kill Raina via eye device? Does Quinn have one? Is he connected to Hydra or A.I.M. Somehow? Is he going to tie into Winter Soldier? I'm quite intrigued...

[The Legonater]

Yeah, my top two ideas for the Clairvoyant are Leader or MODOK. Personally, I hope it isn't MODOK, because if he shows up, I want him done right - not in a relatively low-budget TV show.

[Tanma]

I don't want Jane to die, but I do like Sif better.

Supposedly the original Thor 2 ending was a bit different. Loki actually died, and Jane decided she couldn't keep waiting for Thor to randomly show up in her life, so they broke up but remained friends. From what I understand, Whedon overruled the director for the ending because of plans for the overall MCU.

Yeah, MODOK probably won't work in the MCU without major rewriting. So hopefully it will be the Leader.

[The Legonater]

Personally, Loki staying alive is a lot more in his personality. The amount of deception and mischief that went into him taking the throne is one of the first things to me that solidified him as an actual threat while remaining in his comic book persona, rather than a mild trickster with big plans. Not to mention it easily sets up for the future of the MCU.

[Tanma]

The problem I have with Loki is some of his fans. There is a large section of MCU fans who ignore and deny that Loki is a villain, and paint him as an innocent victim. And while I agree that he has pain and has suffered, it does not begin to justify his crimes. And since Loki gets off not only without any repercussions for his crimes but also gets the throne, I feel like that will only feed his more zealous fans.

[BrickG]

Who defends Loki? They're crazy. Even before he found out he was an ice d00d he caused the death of some Asgardian guards with that "prank". You can't casually kill some people and remain a goodguy.

That's not entirely true. Maybe you can't be a complete good guy but you could be an anti hero. Venom kills people sometimes but he also has a good side. Same goes with deadpool. I don't think loki is an anti hero though.

[The Legonater]

Yeah, Loki's fangirls are absolutely annoying. But that can be true for a lot of things, like Sherlock.

They're nothing compared to the fanboys who refuse to believe batman or superman can lose a fight

[Im a brickmaster.]

Yeah, my first thought about the mysterious person behind at all, most logically would be MODOK. Since AIM had its hand in Extrmis, which is conected to centpide, and whos in charge of AIM? Come on, i know you can do it! I really hope that's what they would do, it would be really sweet. (And creepy!)
