Its definitely different than how I'd interpreted it. And yes, it makes more sense now.
But here's I guess where the confusion lies for me.
The water analogy makes sense of course, just because its difficult to move doesn't mean your super fast, but what if you start moving normally?
The feat isn't clear, and its not an indication of super forum speed, but it does indeed look like Thor is held up at first, then powers through it. /shrug
Do you see it as a feat at all? In one manifestation or another?
I'd put it in the willpower/endurance category, tbh, and I think that was how the scene was intended. It's really meaningless as any sort of speed feat.

Ok. We know there was time dilation. That is a fact as per narration. How severe, we don't know exactly. However, since the metaphor for time was more to the extreme side of things, it should be viewed as quite impressive and should not be easily discarded.
For example if the metaphor was "time became honey" or "time became molasses", then that would suggest a lesser extent of time dilation.
"Time became tar", connotes a more extreme view of things.
Yeah I remember that. That’s the guy who looked like an s&m gimp.
I think days and nights passed outside the bubble after his first failed attempt to get the gimp. I guess his speed slowed down a bit? Supes was exhausted after he actually beat the bubble.
The humans outside saw them as nearly frozen in time from their perspective.
Supe's higher end speed feats suggest he could have easily beaten that time bubble in the first go around.
Lol.. There's no rule on when a feat should be considered just because the writer didn't put a magnifying glass and focus on certain things that happened in a scene.
If the board only accepted feats in such a narrow point of view, do u know how many feats cam be simply hand waived away? Heck Most of us if not all have retrieved feats from the most inconspicuous parts of a scene.
What we do know for sure is that Aaron had Thor overcome some really crazy shiet in that scene. It doesn't really matter if he didn't expand upon this particular portion of the whole.
Didn't Mangog bite chunks out of an enchanted Uru hammer that survived the destruction of it's native dimension? People still under the impression that he's weak?
There is a huge difference between low balling an entire history of a character and what I’ve done
You used a feat of mangog destroying Uru from another universe. You want people reading you post to apply the entire history of uru to that feat but you don’t want people using the same ******* arc of explain that the author did not have the intentions use to the previously established durability of uru for his arc
So please explain to me how I am low balling? Huh?
Perhaps you’re trying to dismiss one low feat (mangog dying in sun) in a arc by using 20+ years of high feat. Yet you use a low feat (being destroyed in a sun or chewed of by Mangog) of uru backed up by 20+ yrs of high feat to establish that Mangog is strong
Mangog had one low showing versus most being pretty high JLX. If you can't see how you low balled then I don't know what to tell you, except that Superman has also had plenty of low showings, which was my point. We both know this. Let's not pretend that Mangog is weak and move on.
And MrMind, what are you basing your opinion on, because your statement at this point is awfully weak.
And now Panthergod is making claims that Superman is the Hulk, and that all he has to do is get angry enough.
You can''t say "mangog had a nice showing, he chewed off Uru" in the thor 705, but refuse to even admit that in the same arc, Uru was treated as garbage by the same writer. It doesnt work that way
You cant pick and choose what you want to accept so your argument.
Either
1. Mangog chewed off the Uru because the writer doesn't see it as being strong. It's why it got both chewed off and it able to get HEAVILY damaged by a star. That means that Mangog showing isn't that good
OR
2. Uru is very durable and the showing is extremely high by Mangog but at the same time
Again, this isn't the same thing as low balling. You're deliberately ignoring the entire arc and using other authors interpretation to build on a feat but disregarding other stuff.
Beth g engulfed by a star when you can't fly is a low showing? How? It actually makes perfect sense, but again Mangog isn't dead. Look at all of the feats that Mjolnir had under that same writer, and yes the hammer survived the destruction of its native dimension. That's enough to realize that it was extremely durable. You do realize that I'm talki g about Ultimate Mjolnir right? If Mangog can chew through a magical weapon that survived the destruction of its native dimension, then I it shows an enormous keel of strength.
