Seconded. 
Also...

Inhumans (Nov. 2, 2018). The Jack Kirby-created, Fantastic Four spinoff characters will get their own movie—separate from that franchise, unless this mess is all worked out by then—focusing on this advanced race evolved from the Kree’s genetic experiments on early man. According to Heat Vision’s Borys Kit, Feige said, “Where they fit into the universe you will find out sooner than you expect.”
Sounds like support for the Skye theory bouncing around here ;)

Apparently this Civil War storyline is spurred mainly from the events of Winter Soldier and the attempt to fill the void that S.H.I.E.L.D. provided.

Re: Comics to Film & Television news
So....it just hit me that I'll be in my 50's by the time Thanos gets all the damn stones. At this rate I'll be in a nursing home by the time they get to Ka-Zar and Devil Dinosaur.

Mm. As soon as I saw the Kree designs in GotG I went "gee, they look an awful lot like that half-a-dude on AOS".
On a tangential note.. that scrawl Coulson is writing in looks an awwwwful lot like circuitry. AI circuitry? Supreme Intelligence circuitry, perhaps?

That makes sense. One movie (assuming they all got back together for A3) seemed awful fast to resolve the full storyline of CW. But I just never cared for that concept anyways, and I'd hate to see the team chemistry destroyed that badly. But eh, Marvel's earned the benefit of the doubt from me, so I'm open minded.

Re: Comics to Film & Television news
Now that I think about it, Tony makes Ultron as means to solve the lack of elements that S.H.I.E.L.D. provided to the world. So it does make sense for Tony to keep trying different means of replacing S.H.I.E.L.D. in some way.
I am some how think that at the start of Avengers: Infinity War that there will still be some bad blood between the two. With the events of Infinity War acting as the means to mend the fences.

Variety is reporting that the cast for Warner Bros / DC Entertainment film Suicide Squad has been set. Jared Leto will play the Joker, Will Smith as Deadshot, Tom Hardy as Rick Flagg, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Jai Courtney as Boomerang and Cara Delevingne as Enchantress.
The film will be directed by David Ayer, produced by Charles Roven and will begin shooting next April in Toronto. The film is set to open August 5, 2016.
The role of Amanda Waller has yet to be cast but it’s said the studio is considering Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer and Oprah Winfrey for the part. Also, speculation is that Jesse Eisenberg will reprise his role as Lex Luthor from Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice but that has yet to be confirmed.

Re: Comics to Film & Television news
Oprah? Really? That's one bit that makes the whole thing feel like a prank.
But I've never seen Oprah act before (all I know is that she was in Beloved and The Butler), so maybe it'd be a good casting choice...

Re: Comics to Film & Television news
Oprah actually got her start in acting. Back in '85, she was in a movie called 'The Color Purple' where she did a rather amazing job, even earning her a Best Supporting Actress nomination, narrowly losing to Anjelica Huston in 'Prizzi's Honor'. I know a lot of people only know her as the one lady media machine who gives cars to her guests at a moment's notice, but she's actually a really good actress... Which is why I question this. This role is beneath Oprah. She's a multibillion dollar industry onto herself... She's not going to lower herself to play the "older overweight black ops lady" in a silly comic book movie.
The other two are possibilities.

Re: Comics to Film & Television news
I actually figured she was in The Color Purple, but I wasn't sure. Also didn't care enough to confirm.
A little surprised they didn't get Halle Barry...give her a decent role as an apology for letting Catwoman happen. Also fits with the New52 "hot" Waller. And we all know how "great" th--
*tied to a chair and gagged by people tired of listening to complaints about New52*
