Is this where we theorycraft how AoS and Captain Marvel fit together?
Coulson gets left out of the vast majority of the action here, explaining how he ended up learning about everything on the fly later. He specifically never sees Carol do anything superhuman; he's lost in the Blockbuster while the fake was at the first contact, and only briefly sees her in the stairwell when he lets them escape.
SHIELD gets what seems to be its first alien body here... but it's a Skrull, not a Kree. Maybe they kept it elsewhere in the guest house. We'll never know now. The situation didn't play out in a way that a Kree body could have been left on Earth... this time, anyway.
Not gonna see Captain Marvel until next week but I assume even with Coulson there the AoS references/nods will be at 0%?
I mean, they could have namedropped something or someone (*coughAgentMaycough*) at least but yeah, I don't actually think any of the writers even watch any Marvel TV.
And hey, they wouldn't have even needed to use deaging tech on her.Well, that was my dream tie-in: a quick cameo for Ming-Na alongside Coulson.
She probably was at S.H.I.E.L.D. in 1995 thought that might be off slightly.

Recruited doesn't mean he was an agent right away. Could've worked in the mail room for a while. :PI'm rewatching AoS season 1 at the moment and Coulson says at one point that Fury recruited him straight out of high school. I feel like that clashes with him still being a rookie in the 90s...

What's the ten rings retcon?Also, as we know, SHIELD has an academy that all SHIELD employees need to go through. Maybe he took a long time?
Besides, wouldn't be the first MCU quiet retcon (Odin's Infinity Gauntlet, The Ten Rings, etc)
I love that I already made that same joke on Era.
Because it's true.
Though now that I think about it, they refer to Coulson as a rookie in the film. So it might not have made sense for May to be there since he was there longer than she was.

"You weren't exactly thrilled when we got assigned that retrieval op in Sausalito, that coffee shop, our first mission?"
"That's because the commander sent us in with no exit plan. I was in the bay for five hours."
"I fished you out... eventually."―Phil Coulson and Melinda May[src]
Coulson's first mission was with Melinda May. He was sent on a retrieval operation to a coffee shop in Sausalito. The mission did not have an exit strategy and resulted in May spending five hours in the bay until Coulson fished her out.[20] Over the years, Coulson and May developed a good friendship. During their time together with the two often spoke about being able to pick their own ops and call their own shots.[1] During one of their very first missions together, Coulson allowed May to drive his car Lola, making her vow to never tell anybody about it. [21]
Was he? Weren't they together for their first mission?

Wait, does it?After watching Captain Marvel I'm very curious how long this script outline was around due to how effortlessly it fits in with AOS.

Coulson doesn't know about the Kree in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., even after recovering his memories...
Coulson doesn't know about the Kree in Captain Marvel either. He was never directly present for any major event in the movie; the Coulson present at the first contact with Carol was a Skrull duplicate, and he himself only ever laid eyes on Carol once (in the stairwell, where she wasn't doing anything particularly superhuman).

Ive been doing that since season 3 and have enjoyed the show much more for it.I mean, it's not like we weren't aware that Marvel Studios is ignoring the Marvel Television produced stuff before. Especially now that Disney+ is allowing them to make their own shows that will be acknowledged by the movies according to Feige.
Might as well treat this (and every other Marvel Television produced show) as it's own thing/alternate universe.
Maybe he spent a lot of time at the S.H.I.E.L.D. academy.Coulson's SHIELD profile as shown in the pilot episode lists his birthday as July 8, 1964. So he would have been about 30 in Captain Marvel ... definitely not fresh out of high school.

Are we sure? He definitely was in charge of the TAHITI program which used Kree blood. It could be that also he didn't recover all of his memories.
yeah, he knew about the Guest Host, but they never implied he knew about the Kree by name. And I was under the impression that he did recover all of his memories after being in the Theta Brain-Wave thingy machine.
Was just about to post.
That may be one of the coolest cast photos ever. Like a Sci-Fi last supper.
