low key, Magneto picking up the stadium in DOFP is maybe the most impressive feat in comic movies

Why is it low key though? Marvel's characters have either been nerfed or inconsistent and we haven't seen enough from dc yet. Fox has made it extremely clear. If there's metal around and magneto is around... he's :eat:

In Marvels defense, if they show over the top, Herculean feats from the Avengers this early on, it would be hard for them to consistently top themselves and wow us by the time they get to The Infinity Wars. I do agree tho, I would love to see more from them than a bunch of hand fighting in every action scene, but they gotta save the big stuff for the big movies later on.

Realistically..wtf can ironman, cap, and thor do that is really impressive like that...they aint shyt. Hulk should be doing some insane shyt, but the others arent even impressive in comics.

This is my main gripe with Man of Steel. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out on BvS.

To get back on topic, the bridge scene in X-3 might be slightly doper to me and that was the only redeeming thing in that wretched movie. The cars being thrown and turned into meteors was fricking bad ass. Matta o' fact Magneto's portrayal in all the X-Men's has been the best out of any comic book character. I think iron-man might be the only other portrayal anywhere close over multiple movies.

The chase scene in The Dark Knight, and the first Batman and Bane brawl also.

Nah. Iron Man is more rdj than he actually is Tony stark. It's just he's charming and charismatic that no one actually says shyt. Add to the fact marvel completely threw Stark's old character in the bushes in favor of making it more rdj-esque.

Because comic Thor is mad powerful, and one of the most broken heroes in the Marvel U.

He's able to battle whole armies of demons and mythical monsters by himself, fly through space and different dimensions with no protection, and fight giant serpents the size of a US state. Comic Thor is definitely up there with the likes of Hulk, Silver Surfer, and Doctor Strange.

Portrayal was the wrong word, perhaps someone just owning the role.

RDJ Ironman is basically a slightly less alchoholic version of Ultimate Ironman from the Millar run of The Ultimates in the early 2000s


Btw if you want some of the best Avengers stories, pick up The Ultimates and Ultimates 2. :wow: The first was the main comic source for the first Avengers movie. Def some of the darkest Avengers stories too, team is more way more gully than the movies n regular Avengers comics (for example Ultimate Hulk is:demonic::merchant::damn:, and Ultimate Thor is alot different, and a very interesting alternative take on the character:patrice:)

Not impressive, killed too much marine life in the Indian ocean, a real hero would have picked up the terraforming engine and moved it to a safer location to destroy

:stopitslime:Dude couldn't even catch a train cart what makes you think he could pick up a Machine shooting a gravity laser through the ground

Thor been getting mad disrespect in the Marvel films and it was very noticeable in the first Avengers movie when he and Iron Man squared off.
Must've been that RDJ privilege because Thor has slumped that nikka in the comics before :childplease:

I recall awhile ago Thor getting pissed and made Manhattan burn from his wrath. He's a legit boss, fam.
