Now I feel like you're coming on to me.

I'd prefer to come in you.

Have you seen Bardock42? He's not anything like the "flowery waif beta boys" you claim are your type.

But he will be.

His fist are the size of glazed hams, so you'd better prepare your entrances.

ALL THE BETTER TO EAT THEM WITH

Kal didn't bring it anywhere. The fight started in the city and simply stayed there. Superman fights in densely populated cities and causes lots of destruction all the time in the cartoons and comics.

If Supes had any feeling for humankind, he would've taken the battle far away as possible from Metropolis. He didn't.

Yes, there's alot of destruction in cartoons & comics but when you're depicting a live-action film with real people & want the audience to believe it as realistically as possible then you really got to factor in that Superman gave little thought or concern that his action did in fact, kill people.

Only if you ignore him saving the entire human race about 10 minutes earlier. Also that he personally saved numerous people despite exposing himself multiple times. And killed Zod to save innocent human bystanders. And generally cherished human life. So basically only if you didn't watch the movie or are just stupid.

Kal in MoS has no experience or training. He was just trying to beat Zod in a fight and didn't have the time, wherewithal or luxury to worry about the surrounding people.

I doubt he could have taken it away from the city anyway. If he'd have tried to, Zod would only go back to kill more people.

The Thor/Hulk fight, which only lasted 3 minutes at best, was nowhere near as epic as...any of the fights in MOS.

I beg to differ. The Thor/Hulk fight was awesome compared to any of the battles in MOS.

Regardless of how short the Thor/Hulk fight was, it was unexpected, especially taking place on the helicarrier & well choreographed.
A short fight left the audiences wanting more NOT get bored with tedious repetition.

The MOS fights were predictable & pointless.
Superhero punches supervillian...no harm, no physical damage.
Supervillain returns punch with just the same useless effect.

At no stage did either Supes or Zod stop to realise how pointless their battling really was.

Tell that to his grieving, widowed mother.

Not as well-choreographed as MoS's.

It left the audience wanting more because it wasn't satisfying.

The sole flaw with the fights in MoS is indeed the lack of physical damage on the combatants, but they're still better than the Avengers'.

:/

The Thor/Hulk fight was garbage. You could have at least chose the Iron Man/Thor fight. That one was actually well done.

I was simply replying to someone who had already compared the Thor/Hulk fight to MOS.

Garbage? Are you high?

Nope. The fight was awful. For two superpowered beings, their fight was surpringly tame.

Yeah, for two characters like Thor and Hulk, that fight was just garbage. To slow and cheap looking.

I blame Whedon, you can give the guy all the budget of the world and his direction still has this cheap direct to tv look.

**** sake people take things for granted.

The fight took place on the helicarrier...Thor didn't want to fight Hulk, he wanted to subdue him.

Did you honestly expect a full blown battle that would've destroyed the helicarrier & its entire crew?

Your point? Just because the plot forced the fight to be boring and tame doesn't make the fight exciting or good. It's still awful.
