DEAR WHEDONS
Jan. 19th, 2014 07:01 pmHello, yes, Whedon family, are you listening?
LOOK AT THIS GOOFY FACE:

I am serious here, I have but one request:
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE THIS MAN BE SUPER.
I'm worried, Whedon always has this power to make me worry about things that, thankfully, don't usually pan out, so there's that, but between Joss joking in an interview that Coulson may have superpowers, and AoS now, of all times, setting up the premise that people can be 0-8-4s, or objects of unknown origin, I'm worried that Whedon is going to tell us Phil is special.
HE'S NOT SPECIAL, HE'S JUST PHIL. That's the whole point of Phil, so please, guys, just think up another reason why SHIELD would have put in what you are implying is an enormous amount of manpower, technology, time and effort into keeping Coulson alive, like, he's just a nice guy or something? Fury likes him? Anything, really, apart from specialness.
Seriously, man, this sort of stuff here:

It's really desperately important that those are skills he picked up from tae-bo tapes. Tae-bo tapes and Supernanny, that's Phil, okay? Are we clear on this, Whedons? Phil's just a dude. With a flying car.
