God, Iron Man 2 did suck. And I liked the first one. Horrible step back.

Iron Man 2 sucked?

News to me.

It sucked hard!

Terrible humor, weak plot, weak writing, good-ish fight scenes, bad characters. Robert Downey Jr. was the only good thing about it. In particular that Hammer guy was really ****ing annoying. I know he was meant to be like that but he wasn't amusing annoying, just actually annoying. Oh and the guy they got to replace his black sidekick was not even close to being as likable as the first, didn't have as good chemistry with Downey, and was an awful actor to boot. Again, actually annoying.

Thor was better and would ttly beat Stark up in a fight.

Thor was better...than Iron Man 2. 313

And Movie Thor having the power to pimp-slap nearly every other Marvel Movie character at the same time, doesn't change the fact that as far as character goes, Tony Stark > every other Marvel Movie character barring Maguire's Peter Parker.

Hammer was bloody annoying, but Rhodes? While Cheadle wasn't as good as Stamp, he was far from awful & annoying.

The weakest character in the movie had to be Ivan Vanko. Even Coulson was a better character than that pile of Fail.

I remember liking this theme song when I watched the reruns on CN. >__>

Rhodes annoyed the crap out of me. Bland and wooden imo.

Point. Wouldn't this, then, help you see how this works? If you would post evidence more often I would be more likely to agree with you. Youtube videos are not the only things you need to do this as instruction manuals and pictures can also work.

Unfortunately, this is Games Vs. and video games don't tend to have scans. What they do have, however, is youtube videos. I know you don't have sound, but just as Aura has said, sound isn't required for the majority of the feats we discuss. It's not hard to do, so I don't really understand why you have such an aversion to it. Going off of memory isn't the best way to do it, as everyone will forget something.

I have put up other sources on occasion but I've already told you I won't youtube my way through a debate.

One of my favorite shows when I was a young lad. Mostly cause I wanted Daphne...

Here is a song that has tortured me forever.

Why not? YouTube is an invaluable source of evidence. KMC makes it easy to pot videos to boot. There is literally no reason not to use YouTube.

Because I don't. You can keep asking me why but I will hardly ever if ever do so.

There is no reason not to though good sir. It is just as simple to find YouTube evidence as any other kind of evidence. Hell, maybe easier. I've never had to look for comic feats so I dunno.

I might go with this one it reminds me of dark eldar combat drugs for some reason. thanks everyone

Methuselah was the best name for your Dark Eldar loser and I stand by that.

Cyclops? Lame? Nah. He can walk, and he can be more of a badass than any other character related to the X-Men, barring Magneto & Apocalypse.

Indeed. Think I probably liked him best in the animated series though, where he was less of a dick, and this was one of my favorite moments of his too.

Seriously? Scott's not in the movie, when it is supposed to be about the first team that ever made up the X-Men? 😐
Cyclops has gone from main to secondary to near-mook to not appearing at all in the X-Men movies. Lame. facepalm2

EDIT: His brother Havok is in, but he isn't? haermm

Also, with the possible exception of Spider-Man (Maguire), Tony Stark > All other Marvel movie heroes.


Yeah.. And the fact Bryan Singer's directing it too kinda makes it even more sad. Why can't they ever make another X-Men movie again that's as solid as the first two?

So Mark Ruffalo's playing Hulk huh? Not bad.

That's a jerk move on Cyclops' part. He had Morph get his ass humilated while he could of broken out of the restraints all by himself.

The plot very much wasn't original, though. It was all directly lifted from System Shock 2, which Bioshock was a 'spiritual successor' to.

Keep in mind that I enjoyed BioShock thoroughly, and I think it is incredible to experience. But fair's fair, and it wasn't that groundbreaking as a game to be played.

I'm aware. I just felt like indulging my inner fanboy for a moment.

Welcome back dood.

Haha, thanks. It's been a while, and I'm still probably gonna be spotty, but it is good to see things still going as they have been, more or less. Got an Xbox recently (yet no Bioshock, despite my admittance to fanonicity wit hthe series, go figure).

How are you all?

Would have been useless with the collars still active.

10 squads of ratlings with sniper rifles. Be afraid.

You up for a game of 40k blax.

TBH, i thought the comics and the series were pretty close together (for what they adapted). Cyclops just went through a whole lost more horrible shit in the comics that wasn't referred to in the series, so I can see why he'd seem like more of a dick...
