At a distance, while moving, from street thugs. We've been over this already.

Nah. We can't pull feats out of our ass. You know better.

This is when we use what's called logic. If Spiderman was seen going all out against a regular human with cybernetic arms, then we can only assume that he absolutely cannot punch through a human.

We also have how fast he was moving to also prove that.

No, it all actuality, you're being a Spiderman fanboy.

I've seen slow moving metal punches go through sheet metal, they used force, not speed to go through. Spider-man's punches travelling a human speeds combined with his physical strength would go through a skull.

Still dodging multiple rounds, one being a shotgun shattering.

Not pulling feats out of my ass, you're just playing games now. He's strong enough to stop a train, yet a human skull is just too much for him? Ridiculous. The Doc Ock not dying has been covered, Parker isn't a killer and ending Ock that fast would equate to us not having a film, same reason why Jedi don't use their force abilities more often.

It's a moot point anyhow, as one punch to the face (or anywhere really) would end Veidt, crushing bone or no.

That's my point. There is no such thing unless you go on DC Database by Wikia. No concrete site or hanbook for strength in DC to my knowledge.

Also, that thing about Captain America. He bench pressed it, he didn't lift it over his head.
He holds a falling skyscraper over his head which is stated to be over 1000 lbs. Check the respect thread.

In the movie, Veidt is peak human intelligence, perception, reaction speed, strength, and durability.
Depends. If we judge him by movie characters I'd say he's superhuman. He'd probably just be high level street(hovering around peak human more or less) if we took him movie feats and ranked him in the Comic Book Tiers thread.

Except, no they wouldn't and didn't.

That point is dead.

Which is still not better than Veidt dodging a bullet AFTER it was fired at him while he was stationary.

Also, the spread on buckshot at that range is still fairly clustered.

Not seen in the film and his punches are not fast enough to have enough inertia.

No it wouldn't. His punches didn't crush Oc's skull or face.

This is not even a point, anymore, Robtard. It is not debatable. If it didn't happen in the film, it isn't a feat.

Then we go by what comic book fans consider and also what real world feats are.

If we go by the real world, Veidt was superhuman in multiple categories.

I'm not sure what you're referring to, then. Holding it over his head, however, is still not lifting. It's holding.

Yup. 👆

Even in the comic books, peak human isn't necessarily the best.

No one in the real world can lift 800lbs over their head. Peak human would be someone who trained for years and reached genetic potential. No human has done that. So, the definition of peak human, even for comic books, is not really peak human, but a tad higher...when it comes to strength.

Instead of playing silly games, use logic, I'm sure you can. If a greater feat is done, it stands to reason a lesser one can be accomplished. Might as well argue that Superman can't crush a beer can, 'cuz he didn't crush one in the film'.

No. You're missing it.

Spiderman would have to throw a punch absurdly fast to go through the bones. It's simple physics. He never is shown throwing punches absurdly fast. Sure, superhuman agility and durability is shown.

This is the last time I respond to "Spiderman can punch through heads." He simiple didn't and was shown otherwise.

Logic dictates that Spiderman can punch through a head. Great. Not what happens in the films. We can only guy by film feats. He was shown being pissed off and was trying his hardest to free his Aunt. Didn't happen and he couldn't punch fast enough to knock out Oc.

At worst, he would send Veidt a few feet. Still wouldn't knock out Veidt as he took just as much from The Comedian.

You're missing simple movie logic, many heroes could end a fight early and simpler, they don't, why? Because there's a movie to be had. It's also explained that in the Uncle Ben clause, that Parker isn't a killer and holds back.

-Gandalf should have just called in the hawk squadron, grabbed Frodo, jumped on the back of one of the birds, flown over Mt Doom and just dropped the ring (and Frodo) in, the end. But what kind of story would that be.

-Jedi should just use their force powers to take out shielded droids, they don't.

Anyhow, now you're saying Spider-man would only 'knock Veidt back a few feet at worst?' Talk about a willful adherence to illogic. He sent Flash flying far further than that, he also wasn't trying to kill him, as he would Veidt here.

Guess Superman can't punch through skulls either, 'cuz it wasn't shown.'

Because:

1. Veidt is much much stronger than flash.

2. Veidt is much much more agile than flash.

3. Veidt is much much more durable than Flash.

🙂

Also, Superman wasn't seen fighting his hardest to save his "mom", now was he? 🙂

Those three points have no bearing on Spider-man knocking Veidt back after he's been hit, which was your premise on Spider-man only 'knocking Vedit a couple of feet back, at the worst.' 🙂

Superman was seen punching at human speeds though; by your 'logic', he can't generate enough "inertia" to go through a human skull. 🙂

Does Ozy like have a super strong human skull? Or is he just flesh and bone like us?

Lol @ "Inertia"

That story would be both funny and sad (but mostly funny).

I disagree, DDM, I think that his point stands.
If you sledgehammered someone in the face at human speed with a sledgehammer, that face/skull would go through, man.

Superman would definitely through his mass etc be able to go through.
That it is likely that he can be punching at superspeed just cements the fact that the view that "Superman can punch through a human skull" is ridiculous.

This "Onscreen feats" rule when distorted to this extreme (like any rule distorted to the extreme in threads) is tantamount to the dual crimes of gimpery and tomfoolery, sir. 😛

This would be a no sequitor intertial fallacy.

Sledge weighs more. Also, the majority of the mass is at the end of the sledge. Also, a sledge is solid, meaning their is no inertial loss upon impact from the skin absorbing some of the translational energy, the bones "squishing" together, and the cartilage compacting.

Superman could punch through a skull because he can move at super speed, has fought at superspeed, etc. When superman goes all out, it's obvious.

However, when Spiderman went all out, he couldn't even knock out a human. The answer is obvious: he wasn't swinging any faster than a regular human would...meaning he wasn't building up enough inertia to knock Oc the f*ck out.

Glad I'm not doing that and you guys are, though.

I haven't given Ozy any feats that weren't shown on screen. Why should I do it for Parker?

Still, it still stands that Ozy loses without a blade.

I swear to jebus, as soon as I watch this film again, I'm going to check to see if Ozy ever had a blade: in his office, on his person, referenced, etc.

No, not according to movie feats, when we see Superman punch (in SM2), he punches are normal human speeds, ergo, by applying the same logic you applied to Spider-man above, he couldn't generate enough "inertia" to go through a skull.

DDM brings up a good point in Ock. Is Spider-Man fighting in character or bloodlusted? Does Ock have superhuman durability?

Veidt didn't take anything from Blake. Besides Blake grabbing Veidt I don't recall Blake ever physically touching Veidt offensively in the fight(which speaks volumes of Veidt's skill/speed). Again, we cannot compare Spider-Man to the Comedian.

Already covered with logic, Spider-man isn't a murderer, so he holds back, see: Uncle Ben's Law. Ock is just a human.

It would also make for a poor story, if the Hero just won in the first 15 mins.

If that's so Spider-Man must have been punching Ock at our level. Otherwise he wouldn't be able to get up.

For this thread, is Spider-Man fighting in character or is he bloodlusted. For Veidt it doesn't matter seeing in how he'll be going for the kill.

It's assumed that all VS characters are going all out, unless specified by the thread starter that they're holding back. For objectivity reasons.

So yes, Spider-man is trying to kill Veidt and Veidt is trying to kill Spider-man, to both their max potential.

The difference is Superman has gone superspeed. We see hum run superspeed, therefore, he can move his arms fast enough.

Pay attention.
