asr0462 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I thought it was awesome. The flying Lola at the end was awesome... I'm glad you liked it. All I remember was saying, "Oh come on," when the car lifted into the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyJohn Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Watched and then re-watched to see if initial judgement was correct and it was. This show blows. I'll give it two more episodes to change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfRulers Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I watched it, and didn't really enjoy it. The acting was pretty poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronze_rules Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Very disappointed... The comedy Pilot afterwards (Goldbergs?) is a lot more entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boboset Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I thought it sucked. Bad acting, uninteresting generic characters and a recycled villain idea from IM3. I'm amazed that they decided to launch this series with an extremis villain. That is incredibly lazy and dumb. It's Marvel so I'll stick with it for as long as I can, but wow, so very disappointing.

skypinkblu Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I like Arrow a lot better, I just don't care about these characters and all the women looked the same, pretty much. If they were in a line-up, I'd only guess the pilot. I will watch again because of some of the cute references and the car and I hope they improve:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psithyrus Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Sometimes, Joss starts with a more introductory- type episode. Give it a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 They had to have the flying car it was one of the original Shield signature moves. (thumbs u But over all it was a still a little rough on the edges. Hoping the actors get improve as the series continues. I'll keep watching.

It was good enough for Nick Fury and was even in the Age of Ultron event (actually, forget that I referenced that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeddieMercede Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Boring - think Joss Whedon is only involved with the pilot episode also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicConnoisseur Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 So still good? Sounds like it... Top notch entertainment. Strong characters, with Coulson leading the pack, plenty of slowly revealed hints of VERY interesting backstory. RECOMMENDED +1 The characters are very likeable, and I could see this being a breakout hit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anfield Fox Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Bland. Weak characters and even worse actors with a terrible plot. All the jokes fell flat. I can't believe this is from the same guy who did Firefly and Avengers. Didn't have a cinematic feel to it like a lot of shows manage to pull off either. I'll keep watching for now because it's Marvel but i consider me disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 What was the "Longshot" reference? I was wondering that as well. But then again, I missed the first 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesterSB Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I felt the show was fairly weak, with most of the characters falling flat, but it IS a pilot episode. Go back and watch the first episode of Star Trek: TNG for instance and you'll see similarly flat characters and hokey plot devices. It takes time for actors to find their characters, and for the writing team to settle into those characters. I will stick with this at least for the first season, and if it improves like I suspect it will, it'll be a mainstay for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
