>Lex Luthor not only knows both Superman and Batman's identity, but throws Lois off a roof and writes "WITCH" on Ma Kent's forehead

Is this the biggest bastardization of a cape villain so far? This makes Ultron look like smalltime.

What's stopping him from making them public? I'm calling shenanigans, OP.

Mexibro says the performance was great

>>80926205
He explicitly says "the mother of a demon is a witch", so he knows Clark Kent is Superman

>>80926181
>writes "WITCH" on Ma Kent's forehead
He only wrote on the photo

>>80926205
Because he's an arrogant fuck
He could but he'd much rather manipulate them into destroying themselves.

Mexibro also liked The Dark Knight Rises

He thinks a photo is Superman's mother?

He's fine. He's really smart right? He should be able to figure out who Superman is right? The idea that he's had heated discussions with Clark and heated arguments with Superman, and couldn't put 2 and 2 together has always been dumb. This, on the other hand is the biggest bastardization of a villain ever. inb4 "no one cares about mandarin". The fact that they played one of iron and archenemys as a joke for the soul purpose of not offending pur Chinese overlords is a slap in the face.
>>
>>80926470

funny because Killian was actually a shittier in that movie than he was. The Mandarin twist was fine if you're not a "not muh" fag; Killian was just lame as hell.
>>

It's going to be worse from here on out.

>>
>>80926470

my head cannon is that actualy is the mandarian, and manipulated stark into thinking it was only killian.
>>
>>80926515
No, that twist was shit, cause it was the same goddamn twist we always seem to get.
>Just another evil white guy in a suit
>>
>>80926515
Killians motivation was weak. The problem was nothing in that movie had any weight to it. Like when Peppers fake out death happened, it's been awhile since I've seen it, but I'm pretty sure there's either a visual gag or a quip made by tony or something, that completely ruined the tone that could've set up.
>>
We need a split board.
>>
>>80926641


>>Just another evil white guy in a suit

Yeah, that's why the problem was on Killian and not on the Mandarin.

At any rate Ultron is still the worst.

Not at all. She dies, the villain says it's a shame since she was almost perfect, and Tony says she was already perfect. One of the few MCU moments where a(n apparent) death had the appropriate weight.
>>
>>80926181
>bastardization
Why? None of the villains in the movies, whether Marvel, WB or Fox, are direct adaptations of their comic book counterparts.
MCU Loki is just as different from comic book Loki as this Lex is to the original character.

I didn't say just a quip I said a visual gag, either, I just remembered people laughing not long after Pepper "died"

>>80926934

I didn't think the suit falling apart was funny or a gag at all. I thought it was meant to make Iron Man look helpless. I don't remember anyone in the theater laughing at it.
>>
Don't forget that he lures other aliens to Earth for some reason
>>
>>80926881
no it was just another comedy bit that ruined the moment

it's been a while but I remember when Guy Pearce shows Tony the hologram of her he says something like in an hour she'll either be like the soldiers or she'll explode

>>80926973

an hour from her injection or an hour from when he said that?

Fucking why? I thought Lex felt that getting rid of Superman would allow humanity to advance onward without any super-human crutches. Is he just a homicidal maniac who wants Earth destroyed now?
>>
>>80927047
>*sigh* whatever
>enemy is about to kill him
>LOL SO FUNNAY THE HERO IS ABOUT TO DIE

really?
>>
>>80927013
either way Tony escapes, interrogates ben kingsley, goes on the boat, rescues air force one, and arrives at the docks at night so more than an hour passes from that point
>>
>>80927073
maybe she was like the soldiers the whole time but wasn't using her powers? Those guys could be normal or they could go into fire mode.
>>
>>80927071
Don't pretend everyone in the audience after that scene wasn't going:
HAHA I WONDER HOW KOOKY IRON MAN WILL GET OUTTA THIS ONE
That was literally a visual gag used to break up the tone set by Pepper "dying"
>>
>>80927096
yeah but they were all pretty much indestructible
>>
>>80927174

and so was she

>>80927135

sounds like some heavy projection. He was clearly solemn and serious about it when he gave the "she was always perfect" line
>>
>>80927096
Yeah but either way there was no need to fake out. If she didn't blow up she had powers.
>>
>>80927215
exactly that's why her falling wasn't tragic because if you were paying attention you knew she was fine
>>
What Batman movies are canon for the BvsS universe? Begins, TDK and Rises?

Call it what you want dude. Death was weightless. The scene after that looks like it's getting serious "I AM THE MANDARIN" "lol no" *bonk* ahahaha. The tone of this movie is all over the place, the villain is flat, and the kid was annoying.
>>
>>80927259
Tony didn't know that though.
>>
>>80926641
The irony is that for decades in the comics Mandarin has basically just been a white guy in a suit who happens to be Chinese.

My biggest problem with IM3 is that the fake Mandarin's persona would have been a really cool revamp of the character, and even the idea that that character was just a cover for the actual businessman Mandarin would have been fine if the actual villain wasn't so awful.

I mean if the kind of racist old version of the Mandarin was the problem, what better way to subvert that than have that racist version just be a cover that he uses to manipulate the public perception, like how Osama bin Laden wasn't really a dirty blood-drinking ALLAHU ACKBAR who lived in a cave, but a maniacal zealot crimelord who moved to different safe houses?

I bet that Mexican drug lord guy would have loved to have Americans think he was some kind of sombrero wearing bandito riding the world's fastest donkeys instead of a really dangerous intelligent fucker who makes mafiosos look like preschoolers.

>>
>>80927055
Luthor has never actually been about the advancement of humanity, that's just what he says. He's the ultimate egotistical jackass who looks at Superman as a rival because he can't fathom anyone doing anything nice without an ulterior motive. And as he does in business, the only thing he knows to do with a rival is either make them join him or destroy them.
>>
>>80926414
How is that any different from other Summer's?
>>
>>80927096
Either way you don't show the audience how something works only to have it not work that way when it benefits you, that's a cheap shot.

It'd be like if they spent the entirety of Lord of the Rings explaining why they couldn't just teleport into Mordor only for the climax to involve teleporting into Mordor.

He'll be judged, they're killing him, there's a kryptonite spear and he comes back 3 days later, and it all happens in a Good Friday.

Superman should be secular, goddamit. Or at least Jewish because literally the only Biblical motif that doesn't feel forced is baby Moses. Jesus comparison doesn't work since Jesus almost never got physical, while Superman is super because of physical abilities.
