  • I don't understand why they are making a movie out of Ant-Man.

    He has one of the least interesting powers ever and he's a douche.

    He's also one of the original Avengers. Legacy status will do that for you.

    Also Pym Particles, which might be useful for later movies.

    Seriously they own Lionsgate, there is no reason Man-Thing cannot happen.

    Pretty sure you know more about comics than I do: Which characters do you think Marvel should be focusing on instead?

    I know there's a Doctor Strange movie in the pipeline, and they namedropped him in The Winter Solider...
    I don't know a ton about comics, and I prefer DC characters, but I do have to say that Dr. Strange is infinitely more interesting than Ant-Man on his powerset alone.

    Frankly I think that superheroics are more suited to well-made animated series, but that's not where the money is right now, so none are getting made.

    You know who needs a movie, by the way? Fucking Static, man.

    Dr. Strange is cool.

    I still wish that Plastic Man animated pilot actually made it to series.

    Based on what I've heard about the character, I can concur with the desire to see a Static movie.

    Hey. Ant man fought the Porcupine, my favorite marvel villain.

    His deathtrap was a bathtub. Just a bathtub. It was slippery and hard for ant man to get out of.

    This is one of the few times fiction has shown the true evilness of bathing.

    That alone makes Antman 81 times better than batman or spiderman.

  • are the Heroes of Might & Magic games worth getting into? I want a good fantasy strategy game other than WarCraft 3 (which I own, but the thing's 11 years old by now, and there're only so many custom maps) and DOTA 2 (which has cool characters, but fuck MOBAs).

  • I will admit that I find the fans' obsession with intercontinuity off-putting, just because so little regard is paid for actual storytelling content. This really isn't reflected in the movies themselves which seem mostly concerned with making, you know, good movies in and of themselves; TASM, on the other hand, is basically one big trailer for itself.

    That actually happened to Spider-Man, too, but everyone forgot about that because it happened during the Clone Saga.

    Agreeing with you so hard on those last two.

    Also, on the DCU side, we could really use a movie about John Stewart, seeing that he's the Green Lantern that our generation's familiar with because of Justice League.

    Clone saga?

    That sounds like an interesting thing. But clones start as babies, so it would be spiderman with clone baby spiderman. And a clone baby J. Jonah Jameson.

    A, Ant-Man wasn't going to be in the cinematic universe at all; it was a pet project of Edgar Wright, and it was going to be a comedy. They just decided to roll it in afterwards.

    B, Lame powers are my favorite kind of powers. You know what's better than saving the day with your herculean strength or limitless source energy in your heart?

    Fucking turning into a statue and dropping on the bad guy. That's the greatest.

    C, Guardians of the Galaxy is going to be the best Marvel movie yet, and none of them have any flashy powers. Star-Lord is a regular guy, Drax is strong and knows how to fight, Gamorra knows how to fight good, Groot is a fucking treant, and you all know what the deal is with Rocket Raccoon.

    Speaking of which, every criticism of Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs appears to be talking about the game they thought TheChineseRoom would make, rather than the game they did make.

    well, I can't disagree with this

    I've heard they're pretty good, but I've never actually played them.

    Also, another option for strategy games is the Warcraft II battle.net edition if you can find it. I actually prefer Warcraft II to III, especially the Beyond the Dark Portal expansion for II.

    In the Green Lantern Corps alone, there are five human males.

    One is a white ace pilot. Hal Jordan. That's the one everyone hates.

    One is a red-head braggard with a bowl cut. Guy Gardner.

    One is a black architect marine. John Stewart. From the cartoon.

    One is a half-hispanic comic artist. Kyle Rayner. That one's my favorite.

    One is a Lebanese-American Muslim who got mistaken for a terrorist. Simon Baz. That's kind of gross.

    And then there are the hundreds of other alien Green Lanterns, serving more as intergalactic police than superheroes.

    Are you joking?

    Change size means I CAN BE A GIANT and swat planes out of the sky like King Kong.

    It means I can be small and kick you in the eardrums, or give you suplexes that you would never see coming.

    AND I have a helmet that lets me summon and control ants! I CAN RIDE ANTS

    Look at all the wacky fun I can have that Tony Stark can't have.

    What more could you possibly desire?
  • Yeah, Pym's best attribute is the stuff that he builds e.g. Pym Particles and Ultron (unsurprising, considering he's on even standing with Iron Man and Mr. Fantastic in terms of science stuff). The size-changing thing is just a gimmick that's been held over from his origin days. There's a reason why he's one of the few superheroes who nobody calls by codename.
  • Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    Like legit in the past he decided to say "fuck it" to all his superhero identities and fought crime as HENRY PYM, SCIENTIFIC ADVENTURER

    and he had laboratories that shrunk to fit in his pocket and tools and weapons that grew to fit his hand

    he was the doctor
