I dunno'. They nixed the Jessica Jones/Luke Cage series, which I was actually really excited about and could've very easily been a lower-budget intro to the Movie Avengers Universe. I still hope they reconsider the idea.

That'd be great, yeah. I just hope it doesn't have anything to do with SHIELD.

Marvel movies can do no wrong these days. DC, on the other hand, now that Batman has wrapped up can't seem to get anything right. Marvel re-signs Joss Whedon for Avnegers 2 and DC might sign Ben Affleck to direct the Justice League. Where's the justice in that?

I hope it is SHIELD and willing to bet it will be. SHIELD is easy to do and opens up lots of story opportunites and can appeal to a wider audience. They could have cameos from different heroes and do everything from the supernatural to more alien threats. They can avoid having to get Samuel L. Jackson by making it about a small elite SHIELD squad.

I bet they would get Jackson for the pilot... and then maybe have him make occasional cameos to maintain his presence in the show without having to go over budget by having a big Hollywood star in every episode.

Hilarious AVENGERS Subtitles for Chinese Bootleg DVD's

Chinese DVD bootleggers took it upon themselves to translate The Avengers in English... the result is hilariously awesome. Thanks to Gamma Squad we have some screenshots from some of the scenes of the bootleg DVD, that I'm sure you'll enjoy. I love how they call Loki "Rocky." Check 'em out!

And... it's SHIELD.

ABC has ordered a pilot for S.H.I.E.L.D, a live-action series from The Avengers writer-director Joss Whedon, Marvel TV and ABC Studios. The project is based on Marvel’s peacekeeping organization S.H.I.E.L.D (which stands for Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate or Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division) found in both the Marvel comic book and feature film universes, including the blockbuster 2012 movie The Avengers.

S.H.I.E.L.D. will be written by Whedon and frequent collaborators, his brother Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen. Joss Whedon also is set to direct the pilot, schedule permitting. Production on the pilot, which marks the first live-action Marvel TV project to get a green light, will start immediately. Joss Whedon, Jed Whedon and Tancharoen executive produce with Jeffrey Bell and Marvel TV’s Jeph Loeb.
