Ooooh, yeah. Not terribly familiar with him, but he is a smaller name and younger hero they could use. They have my permission to mess him up however.
Luke Cage they have to do right though *nod*.

I doubt that Whedon is going to be full tilt hands on. He'll probably be the one okaying story lines and stuff but I doubt he'll be directing. He's pretty much neck deep in all the Marvel stuff to have that much time. He's already complained he has almost no time to work on Dr. Horrible 2.

Maybe every now and then have a big character for an episode or two, kind of like Entourage and Californiation. Or just small cameos here and there... either way I think having say Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, or Steve Rogers making random appearances would be a nice touch.

it would be nice if, say instead of having the big name avengers actually interacting with this team, have them be in the background here and there. you wouldn't even really need to hire the main actors... just have iron man do a flyby or hawkeye training some newbies as the team walks by. or even have an alert and show captain america running past leading a team of shield agents. the team turns around to look and marvel and coulson yells at them for being starstruck. doesn't have to be a scene where chris evans comes in and gives some inspirational speech to them on orientation day, you know? just enough to show that they are NOT the focus, but they are there.

I like that approach, particularly if they were to expand it to more than just movie franchise characters. There are plenty of characters that have been associated with SHIELD over the years, so show a glimpse of some of them. I'm assuming they still can't use any characters they've sold the rights to away, so no Spider-Man, FF, X-men etc. but it would still be easy to toss some lesser characters into the background just to give us nerd boners.
Of course, I will die if Dum Dum Dugan makes an appearance. He's the man!

Spiderman is a gold mine, even the last bad one. And he was an Avenger, right? I think Whedon would have popped a nerd boner to have Spider Man helping out in New York during the final battle.

Every Marvel character was an Avenger at some point.
And that guy being Rage makes more sense. Not that I have any idea who Rage is, I just assumed the strong black dude was Cage.
There were talks about a Cloak & Dagger series a while back, that's a pair I could easily see them dealing with. Small enough they're not really movie level properties, and for the most part their powers won't require insane CGI.

Yeah because throwing light daggers and having a Huge ass black hole cloak that swallows people doesn't require a lot of CGI....
The shield series might be able to introduce some "smaller" superheroes, like have carol Danvers be a rookie, mockingbird, cloak and dagger to some extent, although i don't know if they were avengers, i know they helped spiderman a lot. I fully agree on linking some avengers stuff in there, like in an R&D lab seeing them fiddle on an old iron man suit. Maybe in a main base see a hulk sized hole in the wall, coulson saying "yeah, never take food labelled Banner out of the fridge"
No real need to explain Coulson being alive though, they never said he was dead in the movie...Fury just made them assume he was dead, but never outright said it.

Him being Rage actually doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Mind you I haven't read Avengers in over 15 years so who knows what retcons have taken place, but I do have the the initial Cage books. He was a scrawny little kid that had some accident (drugs, radiation, fuck if I remember) and ended up in this supersized roided out body. The dude they showed isn't even a bodybuilder, just a normal average guy.

I'd be even more impressed if they fucked with people by tossing some blurry Superman/Batman colors across the screen for a split second and say something like they didn't make the cut, or some silly green construct roaring by and fucking everything up because the wielder is an idiot, but I understand why they would never do those things too.
Also, the line about taking Banner's food out of the fridge is fucking gold. I like the way you think.

Light daggers would be nothing. The cloak effect would be where the "for the most part" thing comes in to play. Lot of wiggle room for how they'd depict the cloak itself and also how it works.
Did a search and checked a few pages back on this forum and didn't find anything.
I will have a look for sure.

So apparently they showed the pilot at ComicCon. They're really touching on the past films in the MCU it seems, from what I've read on the cliff's notes.
Since Cobie Smaulders is pretty much confirmed as a recurring appearance (duh, right?), I'm really wondering if we'll see Samuel L getting a nod here and there for, say, multiparters and/or finale episodes.
Example: Extremis factors into the pilot, which comes with its own implications.
