Yeah, of all the comic-movies recently, would have to say Fox comes closest to portraying their characters at comic-level power. MoS next. Marvel just goes the lazy route for continuity purposes I'm thinking (big effects cost big money and it's hard to expand into TV and the like if they did that).

How strong you have to be to shift a tectonic plate Nabisco?😛
Can Thor or Hulk do that?
Dunno Abhilyin 😛
The math and science behind that is beyond me. We don't see how he did it and what he exactly did to move the plates. And we don't get to see the plates. All we got, after all, is a headline. So, basically, no way for me to quantify it at all.

Even the smallest tectonic plate is close to quadrillion tons in range or thereabouts.

Fox only went there in the last 1 or 2 movies. Before that they were way too scared to do things like giving Magneto his shields. They thought it'd be too "unrealistic".
I was always like if you're too scared to do that then at least give him adamantium armour instead which they've already shown he can manipulate. But no need now, they've finally gotten the balls to give him his full power set (including control over the Earth).
Anyway Marvel tends to give them all their variety of powers (mostly), they just scale it down from the comic book versions. I don't think it's about cost, I think they've just always been more concerned with character portrayals first and foremost, and making good movies.

I don't know about the MCU being lazy. It might be that, but I think it has more to do with proper story telling and choreography. It's hard to get everyone into fight sequences when Thor, Vision and Wanda are so far above guys like Cap, Hawkeye and Black Widow. So I can see why they degrade the upper tier's powerset and give the lower guys a boost. I don't like it, but I can agree with it.
NO ONE in MCU is stronger than DCEU Superman

States how Superman moved a tectonic plate to prevent an Earthquake. Just to let you know, those things are heavy af.
Just a rough estimation, but an average tectonic plate weighs 40.7x1021 kg. That's 44,864,070,000,000,000,000 TONS
MCU just sucks powerwise
EDIT: damn IT
