Who wouldnt like to see a Avenger/Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D cross over?



Recently...Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D Marvel fans got excited over the heavily referencing of Thor: Dark World in one of the episodes. We were all hoping that the Joss Whedon-helmed show would throw us a couple of bones and make more in-Marvel Comic Universe references and, somewhat naively, we were keeping our fingers crossed for a cameo by an Avenger at some point. Well lets all hail mr. Joss Whedon as he writes in yet another cross over including our favorite well aged, super soldier known as Captain America.
An anonymous source first tipped off ComicBook.com about a strong connection between the S.H.I.E.L.D. plotline in 
Captain America: The Winter Soldier and the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. starring in the ABC show. In this case...This episode will be released before Captain America: Winter Soldier.

Whedon chatted with TV Guide, saying:

We're trying to flesh out the world. The Marvel brand carries with it a lot of familiar faces. We’re trying to flesh out the world of S.H.I.E.L.D. with the established characters and the characters we’re introducing to build out the larger organization that we operate in.

Then when the subject of The Winter Soldier came up specifically, Joss has this to say:

Nick Fury [Samuel L. Jackson] is in that one, and S.H.I.E.L.D. makes an appearance, so we will definitely try to tee-up some stuff and probably play a little bit of the fallout from that film. We’re hoping to do some cool stuff.

What do you think? Excited about the announcement? Will these types of nods to the greater Marvel Universe make you more inclined to watch the generally not-so-acclaimed TV show? Are you more or less excited to watch Captain America: The Winter Soldier, compared to Thor 2 or Iron Man 3?
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. airs Tuesdays on ABC at 8 PM (EST).
Captain America: The Winter Soldier premieres on April 4th, 2014.
