But Daredevil is a potentially good suggestion. There are whiny moments, but way less than any modern superhero thing I'm aware of.

Daredevil is even worse than Agents on the morality front. 30% of every episode is characters soliloquizing about "MY CITY" and how best to "PROTECT MAH CITY" and how "HELL'S KITCHEN DESERVES BETTER!" I found that part incredibly tiring and easily the worst part of the series. Fights and character moments were good though. | ||

He is doing the whole thing because of it, he is not a professional military/spy agency like SHIELD with "unlimited" resources and specially picked members. And then we find out he enjoys kicking bad guys in the face and the whole thing is made better and more believable than any other Marvel TV show or movie. | ||

That's why the monologues feel so out of place, because the rest of it is like that. | ||

That's the thing: we accept that a superhero is doing the right thing because they're a superhero. They don't need to spout vague bullshit every single episode to convince us that they're the good guy. | ||

Batman is an example, as Gotham is just feasting on its civilians, you actually side with Batman saving the city without stupid ass speeches, not because you want to save millions, but you want the condition for the already living to be better. I can take a lot of bullshit from a show, and I really tried with SHIELD, I just need to let this one go. I will check out Daredevil, and just smile at the dialogues about "MAH CITY". But is there any character development at all with Daredevil guy so far? | ||

At least in comics they have 2 of couple of the smartest people on Earth use Math to "prove" they are right, I bet the movie is going to give a crappy explanation just like AoU was crappy in story or any logic. | ||

The Movieverse is even worse, because you don't have hundreds of superheroes and villains and mutants and resident aliens threatening the world on a daily basis, you just have a handful that are threatening but low-scale, and the actual threats to the planet involve 1) Hydra, which is almost entirely humans, 2) Aliens that only show up on Earth when they're invading, and 3) human scientists being ego-fucks and creating doomsday weapons. So yeah, I'm pretty sure the civil war story will fall flat if they actually try to make it a grey morality thing. | ||

I get the feeling that everything except the ending teaser was shot with the anticipation that there'd be no 3rd season. I'm glad there is, though. Skye will probably get her codename Quake and we'll get to see them go around in a slightly more serialized fashion recruiting new inhumans that took the fish oil. What I don't get, though, is how that Fish Oil isn't just going to kill every human that takes it given the tainted crystals that kill everybody are the ones that leaked into the fish... Anyone notice that Fitz talking to Simmons at the end was the first time in 8-9 episodes that he actually stammered? "Science biatch". | ||
