The Superhero Cinematic Civil War of Tomorrow Thread - Part 62

[Lily Adler]

Agreed about the Snyder gratuitous action scenes being out of place for Watchmen but I don't recall the opening scene explicitly giving away that Comedian's attacker was Veidt. He was still shown in the shadows from what I remember, but having read the graphic novel before seeing the movie it was never a mystery to me anyway.

You see a faint outline of side plastic nipple for a brief moment.

I remember thinking it did because Matthew Goode has a distinct lanky body type lol. And the more Snyder showed of him, the more obvious it was to me. But I also was a fan of the novel beforehand and knew already, so whatever. Honestly, on my list of issues with that film, that one's very, very low.

That last one needs slight clarification these days, though given the rest of the list, it is easy to assume.

You know my taste. Definitely the white British chick.

Why are Boom Boom and Husk never on anyone's faves list?

Is this a trick question? That's the same person.

I have been in the doghouse this weekend because when we were having a gathering of friends the other night, I got a little liquid agitation in me and started an argument with our friends when I loudly announced “Pat Benatar is superior to Madonna in every way and I’ll fist fight any mother scratcher that says otherwise!”

I really don’t see where I was in the wrong.

So the moral of the story is, Billy is an angry drunk.

I'm more of a mellow fellow when I'm on the sauce.

Well, Husk lost a few fans over the whole Warren romance. But, Gen X does not get the respect it deserves. [stares at 97 S2 trailer]

And Boom Boom goes through a lot of name changes.

Another fun list. Your favorite X-teams and line ups. I'm curious about stuff I've never had a chance to read.

If you and Hugh got into a no holds barred street fight, who’s winning?

Hmmmmm



Blue Team is always first in my heart


I think the Outback roster were pretty dope


Giant Size/Second Genesis is always legendary


Rogue’s Team was chaotic in a good way (wish they didn’t implode so quick)


And then I loved them because it reminds me of childhood



Which Kitty Pryde roster was your fave?

 

[Babillygunn]

If you and Hugh got into a no holds barred street fight, who’s winning?

Honestly, probably him. He’s undoubtedly pretty strong.

But I will focus on going for his eyes and punching and grabbing him as much as possible in the baby-maker. So he’s not getting away unscathed.

Uncle Billy…

You’re a strapping Kentucky boy formerly from the hood! You better put Wolverine’s singing pretty boy ass in a figure four.

They'll keep him alive like Harrison Ford.

Remember Star Wars fans wanted Solo to be geriatric Ford in CGI as well.

The comic gives off those vibes, so this tracks.
