Yeah I've been watching the show since it started too, I'm a real self abuser when it comes to watching all of a television series. I watched every episode of The Cape. Thankfully AoS finally started paying off in a big way. It had some good episodes/moments along the way, so I was willing to hang in to give it time to gel. Especially since some of Joss Whedon's best shows have taken a season to really get rolling. I'm also really glad that Capt America finally came out, so now they can stop stalling and pick up some momentum into a second season. I can appreciate the level of connection Marvel is going for with all their properties, but it's really clear how much that was holding back Agents of Shield from coming into its own. I can't really blame anyone for not hanging with the show and I can't really blame the show runners. I doubt they knew they'd have to hold so much back to keep up with the movies when they started making the show.

I cant hold one well enough yet to strum anything though and the bulky cast would get in the way if I could. It has my wrist tilted back a bit so I can't really do much. Even if I could I don't wanna push it. The other thing that sucks is that it is turkey season right now and I am gonna miss the whole season because it'll be awhile before I can bow hunt again. Soon though, I'll be back in the game and better than ever. I can actually feel my fingers again so I'd call the surgery a success so far.
Soooo...single hand tapping doom then?
Hope you get there soon man, not being able to play is frustrating. Should be worth it in the long run for you though.

It actually made me go back and start watching the agents of shield show again. I had given up around the 10th episode but now I am enjoying myself. The latest episodes have gotten a lot better compared to where I had given up. End of dork glee.
The wife and I just went and saw it the other day, really enjoyed it. It's also really clear that Agents Of Shield was treading water until that movie came out, because it only started getting really good recently and they were taking a long break after each of the last 4 or so episodes.

If you notice carefully that whole movie is leading up to the civil war series.
Nick fury fakes his death then goes into hiding. They out all shield classified information. Thus leading to the superhero registration act. Furthermore. After those credits thats quick silver and the scarlett witch, magnetos children. In the house of m series the scarlett witch wipes out most of the mutants and then joins the avengers. Also they mentioned Dr. Strange as a threat so maybe theyll make a movie for him soon.

Possibly, but it'd have to be a significant reimagining of the storyline, since Marvel doesn't own the film rights to a number of characters with strong roles in those events (Spider-Man, the FF).

this.
Its live action, I'm pretty unimpressed by it. Me and my roommate watched the first episode and thought it was atrocious (which was a big disappointed because we were both pretty stoked on the concept of it). Geta a bit better after that, but still pretty mediocre imo.

Also sony owns the xmen, yet magnetos children are in the movie.

Yeah. That gets tricky, because Pietro and Wanda have historically been members of the Avengers, but they're also mutants, so the hazy terms of the licensing agreement btwn Marvel and 20CFox apparently allows them to appear in both franchises, since they're cast - differently! - in both *Avengers 2* and *X-Men: Days of Future Past*. You'll never hear anyone use the M-word in *Avengers*, though, and I bet that nothing about their parentage will be discussed.
