What do you guys think of Agents Of Shield so far? I would talk about older parts of the MCU, but I feel like I have theorized the **** out of them with my friends, so prefer talking about the newer stuff.
Spoiler for spoilers:
I suspect Skye/Daisy will play the role as some sort of liaison between humans and the Inhumans. Judging from Simmons' behavior and the fact that Quicksilver and Wanda are teaming up with Ultron, I think it's safe to assume Inhumans are going to be MCU mutant analogues. With that, I think it's likely people will fear and despise them, much like how people hate mutants in the comics. Given that Skye is based off a comic character who is both a mutant and a SHIELD agent, it would make sense for her to be a bridge between the two. I am interested in when Inhuman mainstays like Black Bolt or Medusa will show up, because I think they're going to need some screentime before their movie in 2019.

I can see the Netflix stuff having some crossover with Agents of SHIELD, at least character wise, but I doubt we'll be seeing them show up in any movies. Maybe Luke Cage because he does become a Secret Avenger and staunch ally to Captain America during the Civil War, but it's really hard to say.

I'm kind of okay with that too, because one of the biggest questions I've always had relating to this experiment is are they big enough to go small? It's evident they've been wondering that too with the Netflix series' and I think the partnership is a great fit, as it gives some characters that don't fit into the more family oriented mold of the big movies, time out in the spotlight, even if it's just on the television screen.
