V for Vendetta runs the Gauntlet

Well if he took 100+ bullets in the head w/o dying and slaying the 12 gunmen at FTL speeds, throw in omniversal TK, TP, and unchallanged time manipulation, then I might be impressed. JK 😆

Naw, its just that I guess I was not impressed because the British cops were not that impressive.

I guess what impresses me about a comic book hero is the feats that occur when battling a villian of equal or greater powerset, skill, etc.

V lacked a counterpart, to show off his uber-skills. Thats all.

yes, I would agree that comic Punisher would beat him because thats comics. but how was movie V not impressive at all ??? I just dont see how u can think that. 😬

Because all he did was mostly take out rent-a-cops , civilians and threw things at stationary targets.

THATS why his feats are unimpressive

but besides that doesnt even matter. that was just blowing up the House of Parliament. anyone would take a long time to do that.

No , the twenty years was for the WHOLE 'Vendetta'.

*sigh*

Once again , while wearing armour and in a f*cked up scene. Do you know how long it takes to reload , it takes more then a few seconds to reload a fire-arm. Some take several minutes.

that is true, they were all just pawns, and werent exactly like the British SAS or anything. but still, even if they were just thugs I would say thats worthy of honorable mention. and V didnt really go all out. he could've used stealth to avoid getting shot, and he didnt(like Batman in Batman Begins). and V just didnt have a villain or anything to match him in his skills, thats what didnt really impress me now that I think about it.

but I thought the whole Vendetta took 15 years? 😕

That is what i've been saying all along. If V were pushed by an equal counterpart maybe he would have impressed me more.
