Weekend Box Office: JURASSIC WORLD Continues to Rule; INSIDE OUT Comes Out…
I think we can all admit the first season of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. had Hugh Jackman Confirmed for X- MEN: APOCALYPSE? issues. But most first seasons do. When a show starts, the writers are still trying to figure out the characters and what they can accomplish making a 45 minute show on a very crunched timeframe. Add to that fact that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was trying to work in visual effects and also keep Marvel fans happy as an extension of the MCU, Is This the Plot of WOLVERINE 3?

However, as the first season wound down, the show felt like it had found it’s rhythm. And in the first ten episodes of season two, which aired last fall before Agent INSIDE OUT Director Pete Carter began, the show definitely picked up steam by introducing new characters, Docter Talks Easter Eggs, TOY STORY 4, and… big story arcs, and teasing what’s to come in the Marvel universe. If you gave up on the show during season 1, I strongly suggest giving it another chance. OUR STAFF The other day at the VES Awards in Beverly Hills, I got some time with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. star Clark Gregg on the red carpet. He talked about how Agents of Steve "Frosty" Weintraub S.H.I.E.L.D. became what it was meant to be after the crossover episode with Editor in Chief | @colliderfrosty Captain America: The Winter Soldier, where they’re at in filming the second season, the great ensemble that’s built up around the core cast, the biggest Matt Goldberg Managing Editor | @MattGoldberg challenge in making a TV show, if he’s going to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, when he found out the Inhumans were going to be part of the show, Adam Chitwood Comic-Con, if he’s going to direct something again in the near future, and a lot more.
