Force fields vs. Shields

But nuts to this. I'm not about to sit about debate about the (non-existant) difference between a shield and force field. Even I draw the line somewhere.

It's also a shield. You just said it yourself.

the important part is the force. You know as in surround. I've never seen thanos generate a force anything around himself that was anywhere near what he does when he uses tech. That the point of this.

The "force" part is supposed to mean it surrounds... 🤨

That's the crappest attempt at trying to manipulate semantics ever.

Show me a time it's mentioned that it didn't surround. You realize a shield has been around for ages. Usually depicted like Captain america's or even us agents energy shield. Not a force anything. The semantics of it boild down to someone trying to say that Thanos putting up a shield somehow gives him the ability to generate force fields/shields. Which is just preposterous. They aren't the same thing and he hasn't shown that abbility either.

You seriously think the word "force" means "to surround"?

At this point I don't I nor anyone else have any idea what you're raving about.

5.1 Dolby Digital Force sound?

Come out with your hands up we've got you forced?

This has a chance of replacing Thing Vs Crippled Supes as my favorite thread.

My apartment has panoramic views of the waterfront that forces it.

The woman told the court he surrounded himself onto her.

The mother was surrounded to choose which one of her children would live... or die.

More to the point:

He knocked the attacker away with a a blast of pure surround.

Any one have any proof what so ever that Thanos can replicate his Force shields that he uses tech for with his own power. Him create a construct/shield to stop a herald is not the same. period. Now talk trash all you like, I'm waiting to hear or see of a time he's done it.

Well he was forced so he had to use lethal surround, to clear a path.

My god. Don't tell me Luke used his surround power to kill someone!

FUUUUNNEE. Still doesn't change the fact that someone mentioned something that has NEVER been shown to be a power of Thanos's. So I had to think of way of expressing this and also denoting that Force shields/fields, tend to be and are superior to just shields.

You know sharks in the DCU are cosmic right?
