Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

She's Daisy Johnson. Her father is Mister Hyde. Her powerset is the ability to generate earthquakes.
Not so. Immediately before the earthquake begins, a visible shockwave distortion in the air emanates from Skye and travels into the ground, clearly indicating that it is Skye, not the Diviner, generating the earthquake.
The camera focuses on the ripple. It's hard to miss.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Well, in the comics, after Fury goes underground, she becomes part of a secret underground S.H.I.E.L.D.-esque organization called the Secret Warriors dedicated to fighting evil from the shadows.
So basically, exactly what she's doing now.

Is he saying that in regards to setting up Infinity War, or in regards to the Guardians being in Infinity War?
If it's the former, perfectly fine, as well as being nothing new. If it's the latter... then I think he's really underestimating the scope of the Infinity Gauntlet and the fact that it will threaten the entire universe, and that if keeping them separate from Infinity War is a goal, it might not have been a good idea to have one of the Guardians be Thanos's adopted daughter, or to have one of the Guardians turn their attention to Thanos at the end of the movie. Because that gives people the expectation that they're going to be involved in the upcoming conflict.
IIRC the MCU!Guardians would be sticking more to the Dn A run if they never went to Earth on purpose(they once had to exit a portal and came out in the FF's HQ and had to make them promise never to open that portal again before going back to space IIRC).
Both the Bendis run and animated appearances have them show up on Earth hunting someone only to end up needing the Avengers help(the modern Guardians seem to really love Earth and show up there whenever there is a Event). Of course the Bendis team also have Earth superheroes as members nowadays so...
Well, looking at it more deeply, it's a new comment, but it's not about Infinity War at all. He made that statement in response to being asked if Age of Ultron would affect the tone of the next Guardians movie.
Which seems like a patently ridiculous question, but the fact remains; this was not about Infinity War. I am not amused.
Best part of that was Reed wondering who the hell they were
Forever liveblogging the AvengersAsking about the Guardians and Age of Ultron kind of makes sense since in the comics Ultron went from getting defeated by the Avengers to space where he started a big war where most of the Guardians met each other for the first time. Also had Ultron decide that if you want to end a war you need to think big.

Did it go better than that other time he tried to be giant and a toddler beat him?

The earthquake was pretty obviously Skye as it only happened after she exploded her cocoon.
