Lamest on screen Avenger nowadays?

[Hector]

Anyway. I hope to gawd Mark Ruffalo is forever done being Bruce Banner.

Time for a new Banner actor...time for a truly awesome and baddarze Hulk.

Seems that every time I criticize something you like (like the Phantom Menace), you get defensive and opinionated yourself.

I’m not perfect...you are not perfect.

Don’t like my posts, ignore me.

I’m basically hating on ONE lone character. Basically all the Avengers are being spared by me, so calm down, lol.

Maybe I don't know you, but I don't appreciate your tone, despite the "lol" at the end of your rebuke. I don't like being told to "calm down". You are the one firing off rants in capital letters, and encouraging a "come at me" style response from the other members of this forum.

I guess if it's your way of being playful and kidding, well, alright.

But you could be a little nicer.

What sentence or comment of my post suggested anything but calmness? I'd rather celebrate things I like rather than waste time on things I don't. But that's me.

You're more than welcome to criticize whatever you want. But it won't change the film, and it's my personal belief that the internet and our modern culture in general would be so much more fun if people took time to smell the roses and not bang the drum of how filmmakers wronged them.

All the female heroes lining up was cool, reminded me of this book.



Nothing "PC" about giving one tiny scene to celebrate the female characters.

Honestly didn't think of that book but it's a great example.

I just thought, how cool for young girls or boys who identify with or like the female superheroes, to get a scene showing them all lined up like action figures. I don't have data, but I imagine a good portion of the box office on these films is from females, and I think if I were a 10 year old girl, that would be a really exciting scene for me to project onto.

We want girls to like comics and genre culture right? Or are we still not letting Darla into Spanky's clubhouse?

...and let me point list a ton of positive things before I start getting called a hater...

I greatly enjoyed Endgame. My first trip to the movie theater in a long time. Actually, the last time I went to the movies prior to Endgame was none other than Infinity War.

So right there proves I like the Avengers movies.

Aside from the my normal temper tantrums at seeing superheroes remove their masks/helmets every chance they get...I still immensely enjoyed the movie.

I love the gathering of the female superheroes.

I love the non-super-powered superheroes like Black Widow and Hawkeye.

I don’t even hate Captain Marvel, just her annoying persona irritates me a tad...but obviously her powers are amazing.

Fat/drunken Thor was a surprising nice touch...just wished he had displayed more baddarzeness.

Love how Nebula and Scott Lang were so integral and important part of the whole saga.

Love the heroics of Tony Stark and Steve Rogers.

I have only one major gripe, and damn it, I’m entitled to criticize and hate on that lone aspect, I have the right to say so...and I’ll stick to my guns...

PROFESSOR HULK SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you.

[Hector]

Thats why I was cheering and rooting for past Captain America vs present day Captain America. I had to go for the masked one...

[Hector]

I talked with John Wesley Shipp on Friday about his Flash series and he agreed that the Rogues should have been in costumes like us geeks want to see, instead of black trenchcoats. Adherence to the source material is a good thing.

Exactly.

Sure, we appreciate our childhood superheroes come to life on screen...but that doesn’t mean we should accept anything they throw at us. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve been annoyed and frustrated seeing these heroes take their damn masks and helmets off to show their faces every/any chance they get, arghhh...it’s so aggravating. Heck, Captain America no longer even bothers wearing one...and many just shrug it off and are fine by that. Well, not me. I’m bringing down the wrath on all things that annoy and frustrate me, lol.

[Hector]

Agreed ^^^^^^^

You mean filmmakers and actors should be grateful you and I fork out $20 a pop for one viewing...it’s the reason they have millions and live in massive mansions.

Sure, I appreciate art, but we also have the right to criticize such art.

I take back my original comment. I now realize, Captain Marvel isn't an Avenger! She was just a guest appearance in the movie.

She was a member in the books by virtue of her time as Warbird which was cut out in the MCU storyline like it never happened, so no, she is not in the MCU. I think I recall reading that she was suspended or kicked out for a while after I stopped reading.

For adults living in an age and world that brings our wildest childhood comic fantasies to life, we sometimes sound a wee bit ungrateful and misguided in our nitpicks. EndGame wasn't perfect, but I sure was happy I got my money's worth.

Professor Hulk would’ve been a lot less lamer with a proper Hulk face...not that stupid Mark Ruffalo face.

These damn actors with their perpetual vanity.

[Hector]

Charm, you guys... you know, the old style charm for which legends like Christopher Reeve are revered.

I'm sure no one cares, but count me among those who was happy to see the scene with all the female heroes lining up. What a cool testament to what has been achieved.

The Hulk is NOT Superman...and should never be.

I had no problem with all the female superheroes lining up...I thought that was cool too.

[Hector]

Yes, there has to be a lamest member...nothing is perfect.

We are talking about fictional comic book characters, we are not dissing on each other’s parents, lol.

I love the Wasp though, she’s a baddarze...and Evangeline Lilly rules.

I also dig Black Widow, she’s a complex character.

Hawkeye might be the weakest, but he’s not lame. He’s pretty cool and loved his family storyline.

But sorry, Professor Hulk was lame. I don’t want him feeding bloody damn tacos to Scott Lang. I want my Hulk to smash things in a damn rage...with power and conviction.

I’m basically hating on ONE lone character. Basically all the Avengers are being spared by me, so calm down, lol.

Professor Hulk sucks major arze.
