well..i think they said it was because of [SPOILER - highlight to read]: his big size..the gravitational pull became greater..but that is still bullshit..

In the four X-Men films that Magneto was featured in, his mutant power only allows him to manipulate metal and levitate himself (a fact that the writers at IGN mentioned as well).

If Magneto had the ability to create a force field with his mutant power, I'm sure he would've done so in the original X-Men trilogy as he was at his prime. Due to Magneto's powers being downgraded in the X-Men films, he's guaranteed to lose to Green Lantern in a fight.

GL wins.

Also, i enjoyed the movie and thought it was pretty good. Some like it, and some dont. For those who havent seen it yet, see it for yourself and decide whether you think its good or not.

Well, maybe you haven't seen the movie yet.

[SPOILER - highlight to read]: The fact that explosions from jets and trucks can hurt Parallax proves that the writers knew jackshit about Parallax.

Parallax was never an Oan to begin with, he is a parasitic entity of fear that perhaps lived before the Guardians even existed.

And the Parallax from the movie doesn't even remotely resemble Parallax from the comics.

In a way, id rather see that than a giant Yellow bug. embarrasment/

We need to realize that movies arent going to be 100% like the comics. The whole thing with the fear/yellow and Parallax growing stronger was pretty much dead on. How the yellow/fear takes control of the being, was pretty pot on.

Cant please everyone. Still a good movie.

Whether it be in the comics or movies, as powerful an entity Parallax is, it should never be hurt by tiny explosions.

And the Parallax origin story is still a hoax.

Well les not forget that in the movie, Parallax still wasnt near full power. Also, as we've seen, theres still more to that whole situation that may be unraveled in the sequel.

The only part that was remotely different was the fact that [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Parallax himself was a guardian. Like i said. Id rather what they did than seeing a giant yellow bug.

But the whole point of Parallax and the emotional spectrum beings is that they are supposed to beyond concepts like a mortal form in DC. To give them a definitive idea that defines them as anything other than emotional concepts given form is just wrong. Btw Parallax and the other concepts are given form to give readers understanding that they are there more than the fact that it is their actual shape.

Well movie wise, it was yellow/fear that came before the actual being. I still believe that [SPOILER - highlight to read]: the guardian was just a host as well as Hector to a slight degree, however. Thats why i think they will explain more in the sequel. Like [SPOILER - highlight to read]: how can Sinestro have power of yellow/fear when Parallax was destroyed?.

I think they could've come up with some very cool parasitic designs that would've worked better than the cloud.

Additionally, the physics behind Kilowog simulating a star's gravitational pull is totally incorrect. A star of that size with the "gravitiational pull of the average star" should be so dense that it would've created a black hole and consumed Oa.

When i read comics or watch comic book movies, i throw physics out the window.

there is ignoring physics which I can attribute to suspension of disbelief and then there is IGNORING physics. Unless you intend to rewrite the whole science of it or are just ignorant then writers should at least try to scale something into the realm of possibility given the fact that the readers/watchers are willing to go along with some shenanigans. Just don't make it so far out there people don't just scratch their heads and go WHY!! EVEN IN FICTION THAT SHOULDN"T BE POSSIBLE ON THE PREMISE OF HIS POWERS. Kind of like Thor tooling the destroyer.

I'd imagine if it had properties Mags could manipulate, Cyborg Superman would have possessed one by now, considering he can take over even random metal bits..

That would be kind of awesome, seeing a ring construct of Cyborg Supes as he's controlling the thing from inside...

I don't know, there are some things I can ignore because maybe they're possible, and we just can't understand or explain it, yet. However, this is something that just should've had a little more thought go into it.
