Dr Manhattan Vs

Started by Rogue Jedi6 pages

I brought up a question pertaining to knowing many styles and knowing one style. That's what we were talking about when I brought it up. Jet Li knows many styles, Bruce Lee one/not as many. Totally relevant.

If the question is does knowing many martial arts necessarily makes you better than someone who knows only one, then my answer would be no.

I agree.

And YOU moaned about going off topic.

How was it off topic? Rob and I were talking about how Neo knows many styles, more than YuLaw, it was totally on topic.

In theory, you're probably right. But imo, in a practical situation, knowing other MA's would be advantageous.

Could be. Captain America knows like 2-3 yet he is a way better fighter than people like Iron Fist, and Wolverine when it comes to H2H.

Wasn't really following the discussion, thought you guys meant IRL.

Anyway, yea of course Capt is better than the others you mentioned at MA. It's his thing, if he lost then he would be good for nothing 😛

not really martial arts dont equal better then someone who doesnt know any. You can be trained in multiple and be less skilled then someone trained in one.

Not sure where you got the idea that Bruce Lee only knows one style. He mastered several in order to create one style. The guy literally knew the flaws and mistakes of many different styles.

I wouldn't say he's a way better fighter. I'm not sure he's a better martial artist than either. I'd say he's the smarter and more tactical fighter. Wolverine and Iron Fist know the more traditional martial arts. Wolverine just never uses them because of his other abilities.

For example, Shang Chi is the master of Kung Fu. He may only truly mastered one style. But he can sure as hell whoop everyone's ass with that one style. Overall, I get what your saying about Cap. My point is he'd be more likely to employ headbuts and knees, while Wolverine and Iron Fist would give you a more Asian style of fighting.

How many movies has Iron Fist even been in?

Wait did you just say that Captain America would employ cheap tactics like headbutts and knees?

None so far that I'm aware of. It was simply an analogy.

Yes, he does it all the time. His military background employs such tactics.

Manhattan can't beat Bruce Almighty so he doesn't wreck.

What would Bruce Nolan do?

Use the infinite powers of God to do whatever he wanted to do. Hell the Mask would stomp him too, those are two characters you just can't beat.

I dont see how they can survive splattering disintegration. Or what The Mask could do to kill Manhattan.

You don't see how God could beat Dr. M? God as in the creator of all life and existence in the movie? There was literally nothing Bruce couldn't do, he could transform Dr. M back to his human form.

Mask throws an Acme black hole at Dr. M, successful BFR.

I said I dont see how they could survive splattering.

But Interesting argument.

Since Dr Manhattan is capable of creating all life and existence. mhmm
