My only problem with Batman and his movies, is that he’s become a Wesker-like enigma. What I mean is, COMPLETE. BAT. GLOBAL. SATURATION
In the sense that he’s like unstoppable and godlike and all comic book movies need to be like his or theyre kiddy and childish. It pisses the shit out of me, DC universe is NOT dark, Marvel IS dark. The Marvel universe is a fucking super hero soap opera, which can be seen in their movies to some level. Just because batman’s movies are dark and sell over $1bill, doesn’t mean all movies need to be like that, and doesn’t mean batman is boss. DC has YET to make anything good besides batman related things, that’s is a failure in my eyes, it’s not called the Batman universe it’s the DC universe, and at this point Marvel’s library has been exposed to the general public more.
I love Bruce, and I think he’s a G. He’s a combo of Tony Stark and Steve Rogers, but that DOES NOT mean he’s unstoppable. Niggas are on his dick HARD, and it doesn’t make any sense, yes he may win fights if he has a chance to get prepared, but if darkseid or clark walked up to him on a random day and backhanded him it’s over for him. I hate how people boost him and his movies without even reading comic books, pisses the shit out of me to no end.
Sorry I had to get that out of my chest.

Anyways, was anyone else surprised that Tony and Steve were so close to scraping with each other?
No, I get that that is who Captain America is. And I have read his shit. Look at his fights in Civil War even.
[details=Spoiler]Cap barely seemed able to handle the Chitauri or those clowns who attacked SHIELD. I get that he’s a man who stands up for shit. Thats hella cool, and I love him for it. I don’t even like Iron Man, to be honest. I am not saying he sucked at all, don’t get me wrong. I just see lots of room for improvement in him.
Even my mom said she wasn’t impressed with Cap. Look at the quick scene where he’s jumping from dude to dude, whupping ass, reflecting lasers and shit. They needed more of that. Instead he gives orders and runs somewhere. I ain’t asking him to take out entire armies. Just don’t have Black Widow fucking doing hella crazier shit than him. He should have been bouncing his shield of fuckers domes, while jumping 20 feet to uppercut a punk ass. I mean, look at what EVERY other person did. Each person had a breath taking moment. Scarlet has that fight while tied to a chair, Hawkeye no scopes fuckers, Hulk hulks out, Thor has his fights with other Avengers, Iron Man takes out Loki, a dragon, and drops off a nuke. Best I can recall is Cap denying a grenade with a jump kick, and that afforementioned laser reflecting scene.
And I own every Thanos comic don’t act like I haven’t fucking read Infinity Gauntlet.
I also had an issue with Thor not getting much personal time aside from fighting Loki. He always seemed to be helping somebody else rather than doing shit on his own. His fights with Iron Man and Hulk balanced that out though, but I still would have like to see him go solo against some Chitauri[/details]
-Maybe- domestic. Internationally Batman’s never been big. ‘Epic’ oops-pow-surprise movies translate better in different countries than the cerebral stuff Nolan’s known for.
But I’m not really hashing out box office numbers. Marvel movies have just been a gigantic success for years now, and DC hasn’t had an answer for any of it.
For some reason, the dichotomy of Steve and Tony never gets old, we love seeing them verbally go at it, physically go at it, and we love seeing them pull their resources together to save the world. I know shit got tense when Steve finally said,

“Put on your armour, let’s go a few rounds”, while they were all up in each other’s grills
I found Natasha did less than Steve to be honest with you bro
This is the way I saw the movie in terms of doing crazy shit:
Hulk, Thor, Iron Man > Cap, Widow, Hawkeye. Humans can only do so much compared to those niggas, but the humans did a wicked job at what they do. And Clint is the only actual human on the team btw.
Spoiler
Props to him for not getting completely bodied by Natasha in the helicarrier lol
I think our discussion would be best to be resumed after we/I see the movie again.
Maybe he’s still not adapted to the current era and have not learned all the fighting techniques since he has just been defrosted. Dunno when he learned all of it in the comics though. Maybe he will be done justice in the avengers or cap sequel.
This movie is over rated like all hell, not saying its bad but shouldnt be getting the praise it is. Transformers 1 was/is better than this. But hell cant argue cause of sales i guess…
Whats so good about this movie? Because the movies leading up to this sucked or were decent, so is it good cause it had a bunch of heros in it?(x-men) or a lot of action(too many films to name) or both, which i can somewhat accept
You’re entitled to your opinion, however, I disagree. I liked Transformers, but it did not develop the “supposed” characters as well as this movie did.
The movies leading up to it were good and this one excelled beyond good and was excellent. The plot was simple and to the point, the characters were fleshed out and you cared about them, the jokes didn’t resort to the lowest common denominator and were actually pretty funny, the action was on point beginning to end and you could make out who was fighting who.
I like the Transformer movies(at least 1 and 3) but those movies had problems and then some.
Yo so whats up with people getting up in arms now about Jack Kirby getting fucked over now? Twitter and everywhere else online seems to be going nuts about this.
Not that big of a Hulk fan but that negro, and the actor that played Bruce Banner, stole the entire movie IMO.
Edit: If Jack Kirby was alive to reap the benefits, I might feel different, but most folk will forever give the King his props and I don’t give a shit about his kids not getting a bigger piece of the pie.
Has Joss Wheden done anything bad that didn’t involve vampires? And even that, vampires just aren’t my thing lol. Seriously what has this guy done that’s sucked?
