I am assuming this is end-game Zod so he can better compete with Superman.

Superman and Zod is a stalemate.

Thor vs Faora is interesting.

Faora is faster and more brutal, she has better H2H IMO

Thor is more versatile with Mjolnir. and he will definitely be able to tank her blows. However I don't know how he would weather repeated blows at SS.

I'd give it to team 1 more often than not.

Rage.Of.Olympus
Superman is probably going to take on Zod and it will end up being a split.

Thor can definitely take a beating but to actually defeat someone like Faora he'd have to fight effectively with Mjolnir like he did in his first movie or the last half of the Avengers instead of trying to be a ****ing diplomat talking sense into everyone.

Something like a lightning charged Mjolnir shot would f*ck up a Kryptonian for example.

Newjak
Jottheim Buster right am I right stick out tongue

Faora never learned to fly. Thor's best bet would be to try and get into the air and use Mjonir's abilities on her. Otherwise she will probably maul him with her speed.

This is still my favorite comic book fight scene ever:

CPT Space Bomb
The problem with Movie Thor is that, like the comics, he was shown to be on an entirely different level in his own works than in the Avengers.

Thor Movie Thor has a real shot to win against Faora (look at what he did to the Destroyer for instance)

Avengers Movie Thor probably loses.

She beat up a few regular human beings and a farm boy. She was more elegant or whatever I guess with the super speed but not actually more skilled.

It was decent at best. Definitely the best fight scene in the movie, but not as cool as Superman vs Faora.

It was just my opinion and looks like the general consensus as most people thought MOS raised the bar on action. Tweets, reviews, etc...

CPT Space Bomb
MOS did have More action than Thor, but that doesn't mean the individual action scenes were better.

You like Superman better than Thor, so of course you are going to enjoy watching him do his thing more than Thor.

I like Thor more than Superman, so watching Thor spinning Mjolnir in a circle and destroying Frost Giants with the greatest of ease (and his later owning of the Destroyer) was far more enjoyable to me.

I enjoyed both movies however and can understand both opinions. But that's what they are....opinions.

And let's not use general consensus...Thor did Better on RT than MOS did...does that prove it was a better movie???

I'm not just speaking about critics, but GA. It's not close, really. And MOS will likely have a better IMDB score than Thor.

I really liked the Frost giant scene, but wasn't really blown away. It's definitely in my top 5 action scenes, but not #1.

Like I said, GA means more, since the overall number is higher. Critics screwed up, anyway.

Also saying the critics "Screwed up" is an opinion. It's one that I share with you (at least for RT), but it's still an opinion. One that we're all entitled to.

When I said "not even close", I was referring to the reviews pointing out the action. Most people said it had better action and raised the bar comparing it to Avengers. Thor isn't close to either of them, IMO.

srankmissingnin
Honestly the action was the worst part of MoS. I was shocked with how deftly Synder was handling the somber character stuff at the beginning of the movie, and how much I was enjoying myself... then it devolved into everything I feared a Zack Synder Superman would be with an 8 hour remake of Neo vs Agent Smith (with less than impressive fx I might add).

Anyway, OPINIONS (about what film has action-y stuff) aside....

This match is close. If Thor is from his own movie, it could go either way.

If he's Avengers Thor, Thor team probably loses.

BTW, I was worried the whole time, if you were to read my posts and even more so with the bad reviews, so my mind wasn't made up. Snyder's pacing worries me and it was one of the biggest flaws of the movie, but that could have been more Goyer's fault than anything.

IMO at it's best First Class is the best super hero made... unfortunately it has some pretty cringe inducing low spots that work against it's overall rating. I'm sure we have some FOX executive whos job it is to undermine the director and crowbar shit into movies to thank for that.

You seen the new trailer for Elysium? It looks amazing.

Emi~Kiro
Team 1 would win if it wasn't for Faora's lack of flight and heat visions. I can see this fight being either Zod or superman blitzing one another a great distance away and then Thor getting into it. Superman with thor breaks the stalemate between him and Zod and Zod goes down. Faora will be stuck playing catch up with her 'I leap long distances' hulk style travel while the rest zip by and up out of her range.
Then it's 2 VS Faora..

Ppl tend to forget that despite Faora having her one on one moments that the fight was really superman VS her and that non-ish guy who I think was named nam-ek and that despite it all superman didn't look like whatever beating he took had any lasting effect behind collateral damage.

Golgo13

First off people who haven't seen it shouldn't bring it up like they have wink So if they haven't seen it it's okay for them not to know but id hope they don't try to pretend cuz then they would be wrong.
I'm talking about people who have and are talking about the fight as if it was a one on one domination by Faora. Alot of people I know speak of it as such and some people on here seem to talk about it as such.

To make things easier this Thor is a compasit of Thor's own movie and Avengers movie of both feats of both movie count..

Thor/Faora would be a good match. Anyone have any takers?

Faora's burst speed would probably be problematic for Thor. But I think a lightning blast from Thor would be way more troublesome for her.

Did Thor show he can hit all places at once like the comics? I don't see lightning as a factor, TBH. Not if Thor can't react fast enough. Same with the telepaths like Xavier.

He was able to strike multiple targets at once with lightning which arced off in various directions. Faora didn't show she was faster than lightning at all.

I didn't say she was faster than lightning, but faster than Thor's reactions. Did Thor ever fight someone as fast as Faora? Faora was ruthless and I wouldn't be surprised if she can take multiple lightning attacks.

Faora never fought anyone with the level of energy projection as Thor. The Kryptonians were staggered by machine gun fire and mild explosions. Thor's lightning one shot Leviathans and at its highest levels, devastated the entire Jotunheim landscape. If Faora gets hit, she's going to be messed up beyond belief.

Golgo13
I never said she did, I'm just saying Thor probably won't get his attacks off. This isn't the comics and Thor is not as powerful as the comics. If he's fought someone as fast as Faora, then I'll concede, but I don't see him getting off attacks of high magnitude.

JakeTheBank
It's not the comics, but Faora was still hit by attacks that weren't as fast as bullets. And Thor's probably got the edge in terms of overall durability considering he took the Bifrost Bridge exploding in his face.

Golgo13
She did dodge a crap load of army gun fire and men, IIRC. Mainly because she was faster than them. Thor 2 better show off his speed if he has any.

More then problematic, imo. He isn't winning a quick draw match against her.

Faora isn't one shotting Thor, but she can certainly keep pounding away until he stays down.

Quick poll of people...

When I saw Superman use his heat vision am I the only that thought it looked like it caused him pain to use it?

Well I think in the beginning Thor would take her lightly not knowing what he's up against and she'd gain the upper hand early with her super speed. Thor is durable enough to take the punishment and I think eventually whether by a lightning attack or blows from the hammer he would put her down.

Thor was slow
Avenger's Thor was weaker than Movie Thor IMO

What are the feats of Thor's lightning as far as what it has damaged?

Durability is a wash IMO. Faora wasn't ever damaged and I value being resistance against aircraft bullets and missiles more than what Thor tanked. My reasoning for this is because I view a tank could have taken what Thor received but the tank couldn't have taken those missiles or bullets without holes or serious damage.

Thor was slow? Thor was ducking and dodging around IM and Hulk's blows. His flight speed is also pretty fast as seen in his first movie. Thor may not have superspeed like Faora, but it looks like he has one of the fastest reflexes among the Avengers.

As for the tank... the tank wouldn't have survived the bi-frost blast nor a punch by Hulk and may not have even survived multiple repulsor blasts from IM.

Feats of Thor's lightning damage: taking out 2 leviathans and a couple other of their small ships in 1 blast. Leveling a whole landscape in Jotunheim.


Faora will give Thor lots of trouble no doubt. Her speed is not something to easily fight off. But I don't see why Thor can't just fly up in the air, raise her in the air with a tornado like he did Destroyer, then bombard her with lightning or hammer strike her into oblivion.

Slow as in relatively slow.
The tank would have some damage but will be fine. A Hulk punch will damage a top tank but it will still be in tact very much. IMO Abram tanks are more durable than leviathans.
Thor amped on a building to take out the Leviathans.

Because Zod isn't going to let him. Or her speed would prevent this.

At best all the building did was store lightning, thus allowing Thor to fire a longer blast....There is zero indication that it amped the power.

Not a lot of things on Earth can damage them (or to the degree of destroying them).

Leviathans were soft on one side (their belly) and thus reduced their overall durability. Plus Hulk was easily stabbing them with weak as metal. Hulk couldn't have penetrated Abrams Tank that way.

Which is why Iron-man was able to blow up a tank with a single mini-rocket, but needed to fly inside a Leviathan to destroy one.

Thor's lightning was strong enough to destroy them, the blast lasting longer just let him take out a larger number. There is zero proof that the bulding made the lightning stronger.

That wasn't an Abrams tank.
Although I need to rewatch the scene to assess the damage. The tank still could have still been in one piece.

Also the leviathan was easily getting pierced by the Hulk stabs of metal.

The proof is that Thor didn't take out any outside of that. He and Hulk was battling all day and he didn't do shit to those leviathans.

IIRC, the metal Hulk used was part of the Leviathan's armor...IOW, metal that Iron-man couldn't damage with his missiles or laser, even if he drained his arc-reactor dry.

Hey SM which do you find more impressive, Hulk's punching the leviathan's face(posssibly destroying its brain or core/whatever) or Thor's lightning hammer slam(possibly destroying its spinal cord or whatever)

The Hulk's feat was more of a punch(which did the damage) + continuous push(which stopped it's momentum) Both are impressive strength feats given the Leviathan's durability and the momentum something that size had to have had.

I'd rate that above the charged hammer strike Thor used on the piece of metal...though I'd rate Thor's massive lightning blast and his Jotunheim buster as having more overall power.

BTW: Did you notice that they borrowed rather heavily from the movie Ultimate’s 2?

Iron Man didn't use the same missile he used on the tank in Iron Man as he did against the Leviathan initially. He eventually used the missile he used in Iron Man on the leviathan after Hulk punches it and causes it to flip forward exposing it's belly. The missile blows the thing up, including some of the metal.

Hulk didn't stop the thing's momentum at all. Hulk got pushed back and the thing flipped forward and continue to go forward.

IMO Thor's lightning was more impressive, although Thor was hitting them in the belly.

Thor used the building to store more charge in order to shoot a more powerful blast. He shot multiple blasts earlier so that wasn't the reason.

Oh please. Metal does not amplify lighting or electricity. Stop with it. There is no proof that Thor's lightning was amplified by that tower. The most it did was give him wider coverage. As to why he wasn't spamming lightning left and right to kill chitauri? Simple, because then the other avengers would have nothing else to do. Point is, that tower still didn't amplify his lightning, unless you can provide proof otherwise. Saying that "because Thor didn't use it to kill all the chitauri" is not proof. That's a conjecture.

Hulk used a metal plating from the back of the leviathan to puncture the leviathan. That wasn't ordinary metal.

There is not single proof that shows that the under belly of the leviathans are weaker. Show me one instance where it shows their bellies are weaker.

IM had nothing in his entire arsenal to get through the leviathan's armor. But he had plenty of firepower to destroy tanks. Hulk rips through tanks as well.

Why can't you read? The building STORED MORE ELECTRICITY THAN THE HAMMER EVER COULD. More current = stronger blast. This lead to more power output. Common sense really. As Rage would say, "Movies are simple."

The metal of the leviathan was weak against blunt force or piercing force. Iron Man's missile blew it up (including some of the metal) after Hulk turned it over.

I'm asking you to provide proof on where you came up with THE BUILDING STORED MORE ELECTRICITY THAN THE HAMMER COULD? Unless you can provide any decent proof of this then it's all in your head. And by the way, the hammer doesn't store electricity. It's not some battery that discharges lightning. The hammer allows Thor to call down lightning. He used the tower like a lightning rod. What does a lightning rod do? I redirects lightning. It doesn't amplify lightning, it doesn't store lightning. Fact.

As for the leviathan, IM's missile didn't penetrate the armor. Hulk punched the leviathan so hard that chunks of it's armor fell off, IM then shot his missile into a gap in the armor. IM blew out the leviathan's flesh, not it's armor.

His lightning was always powerful enough to kill the aliens, the longer blast just let him kill more of them...again, there was no increase in power.

I'm not sure regular lightning would put the leviathans down. I think Thor put more power into the lightning he used to destroy the leviathans. I think the power came from him though.

By regular lightning I just mean, no building involved.

He sure struck those leviathans for a prolong period of time. Sure Thor killed the initial aliens with ease but afterwards the lightning was continuously striking the same leviathans for a prolong period. The bolt was shown to be thicker than normal too.

Silent Master
The bolts were split between multiple aliens, which is why he needed to fire for a longer period of time.

Let's drop it since it was shown Thor had to strike the underbelly of those leviathans anyway. Also when Hulk stabbed a leviathan Thor sent lightning through it to it's inside to kill it. The lightning itself did no damage to the metal but rather electrocuted the thing from the metal that was stabbed into it.

FrothByte
Leviathans have armor in their underbellies too. There's no proof that they're weaker in their underbellies.

Thor used the building like a lightning rod, to redirect his lightning, to give him bigger coverage. It did not amplify the power of his lightning nor did it prolong it. He has shown that he can prolong his lightning if he wants to (like how he used it against IM). If anything, his lightning should have been weaker there since he had to divide it into multiple forks.

Thor has shown that he can control the intensity of his lightning. Sometimes it's only strong enough to zap someone (like he did to Loki) and other times it's strong enough to level landscape.

Who knows, maybe after pouring out his lightning against those leviathans he couldn't do another lightning strike that strong.

Considering that Thor's lightning amped Iron-man to 475%, it should be fairly obvious that Thor's lightning is far more powerful than Iron-man

It is clear as day the leviathans were more vulnerable on their exposed underbelly. Iron Man's missile destroyed one when it hit that part.

The lightning lasted much longer than it did when it hit Iron Man. The bolts were thicker as well. Thor doesn't need help to direct his lightning. He was destroying multiple aliens simultaneously without that building. You are clearly going against the common sense of the movie. This reaching is borderline trolling now.

We see massive amounts of lightning going into the building, far more than ever has been shown in all movies. All of that stored charged was shot back out towards the wormhole to kill multiple aliens and leviathans.

Thor's lightning contains more energy than Iron Man holds at a particular moment in time. But energy is not power. Iron Man dispels his repulsor energy in very short bursts instead of a long continuous blast (like lightning).

But that has nothing to do with Iron Man's weapons that aren't powered by his power source (like his missiles).

Lastly, more energy doesn't always mean more damage. Iron Man was charged and not damaged by Thor's lightning.

Actually, Tony's armor was damaged by Thor's lightning...you really need to watch the movies before trying to debate them.

BTW, Thor is far more powerful than Iron-man, this was made clear by their feats and direct comparison during their fight.

Prehaps it did a little. But Thor damaged him with the initial hammer throw.
Thor wasn't far more powerful than Iron Man. Sure Thor would have won the fight by attrition but that doesn't mean far more powerful. Iron Man was giving it to Thor as well.

Far more powerful IMO is like one shot or no more than 3 shotting someone on a regular. It would have taken Thor many hits to win.

Can movie Thor fly without mjolnir? I hate the fact he held on to the building during his lightning strike, it takes away from the feat Imo. Why did he have to hold on to it, why couldn't he just fire it while flying like in the comics?

We saw how non holding back Thor would do against IM when Thor effortlessly crushed Tony's arms with his bare hand and easily ripped the mask off him when Tony was dying.

If Thor were to bring the pain with one of his attacks he could kill tony with one hit.

If Thor were to bring the pain with one of his attacks he could kill tony with one hit. This is a movie not real life. Movies are simple. There is no indication that Thor was holding back so thus he wasn't. He was pissed for crying out loud, he even tried to kill CA.

Crushing Tony's arm wasn't an option at first. Thus we can't compare other scenes.
Tony probably was damaged enough to allow the mask rip. He didn't try at first anyway. Or movies are just inconsistent. Superman in IV moved the moon but in II could barely stop a bus. We go by writer's intentions and not made up shit that's pretending this shit really happened.

Edit: I just rewatched the scene. Thor didn't forceable rip the mask off. It just easily came off.

I'd definitely say the speed of team 1 may be the deciding factor. If they can disable Superman for a short period Faora and Zod on Thor at super speed would beat the living hell out of him. Not to mention if they took him airborne and just ping pong him in the sky...

What? Saying that Thor was holding back is lying and thus trolling. There is NO indication that he was holding back. His face was grimacing for almost all his attacks. He even strained momentarily against IM when they matched strength.

When Thor missed the hammer strike (IM dodged) he fell and lost his balance. That means he was using most if not all of his strength to hit IM.

No it wasn't a normal blast. Thor took his time to charge up that blast, making it stronger than his normal one. That doesn't mean that he needed the building though. Just that he took longer to build up the lightning but the power still came from him and mjolnir. You're the one claiming that the tower helped charge the lightning, which is contradictory to any known fact about steel and lightning, so burden of proof is on you. Our proof is science: Steel and buildings don't amp lightning or electricity. What's your proof? If all you can say is that "Thor has never done lightning that big" then the most immediate explanation there is "Thor had never needed to make lightning like that before, but he did now so he made one".

It wasn't merely a longer charge. The lightning Thor summoned down was significantly thicker than any bolt he has been shown summoning before.

Perhaps it didn't serve as a battery but as a lightning rod to help him summon more. I don't really know. The fact is, Thor has never displayed such power and intensity before and the fact that he is awkwardly situated on top of a metallic tower which he makes surge with electricity doesn't seem to be a coincidence.

Straw man.

Actually the bolt of lightning was about as thick as the one he used in Jotunheim. Looking at it closer, the one in Jotunheim actually looks even thicker. The only difference is that he used the Jotunheim lightning in a concentrated burst whereas he dispersed the one in Avengers into multiple targets.

As him being awkwardly situated at the top of a metallic tower, that's probably because he wanted a good vantage point to launch an attack. The building was the highest one right below the portal, and it gave him firm footing to launch an attack. I also believe that the steel tower allowed him to get a wider range in his attack allowing the lightning to branch off the steel and strike more targets.

But the tower didn't have anything to do with the power of lighting itself. It just helped redirect it (as is what a lightning rod is supposed to do).

Here's a clip from him in the Avengers:
NOONxweXhDo

And here's the jotunheim smash:
Z63d_byNZU4

When Thor first calls down his lightning in Jotunheim it's about as thick/thin as his normal lightning, but just as he detonates it it thickens significantly.


As for what I mean about the lightning rod, a lightning rod can redirect electricity. The longer the lightning rod the longer you can make electricity travel through it. So I'm inclined to believe that the steel tower allowed him to increase the range of his lightning. You'll also see as the smaller ships approach Thor that the electricity running on the building strikes them. But the power/voltage of the electricity still comes from Thor. The tower just helps disperse it.

In short, I believe that the tower "amplified" his lightning in a sense that it allowed him to hit more targets, but it did not amplify the power/charge of the lightning itself. Does that make sense?

It's based on common sense. Why else would he awkwardly position himself on top of a metallic skyscraper other than it somehow helped his lightning. Heck, once again we see the electricity course though it. In fact the camera zooms out so we see this happening suggesting that it is of some importance. Also, that he channeled for a longer period of time doesn't equate to it being thicker when he summoned it.
