Come on man.
How is Babil formed?

>>83213695
Wasn't the whole point of Babel that if they finished it they could have struck God?
>>83213695
>Babil
>>83213994
that's a highly mythologized version of the already pretty ridiculous myth
the original story of babel was that it was simply an act of hubris, that humans could create something even grander than what god could create. Not necessarily that it could reach god himself.
>>83213994
No, it's that they tried to reach heaven/God by mortal means.
It's not whether they could or not, it's that they tried.
God is big on intent
>>83214184
Always thought it read a bit weird.
Like God smiting humanity because they're threatening his ego.
>>83214471
God is a sadistic ego-maniacal lunatic. If you do something he doesn't like he sends you into his fiery torture chamber to suffer for all eternity.
>>83214471
Pretty much yeah.
In the story humans are basically like "hey look how great we can be when working together!" and God is like "if they realize how great they are they'll stop fearing me".
So he fucked up the whole thing.

>Bible references about a guy named Apocalypse
Gee who would have thunk
I swear, people have been aimlessly trying to outdo the great quote from James Weldon Johnson for decade. it always comes off stilted and forced.
Cartoon Apocalypse had better quotes
>I am the rock of the eternal shore, crash against me and be broken!
>Beast, how many people envisioned my end? You are no closer than the Babylonians with their swords and fire sticks HAHAHAHA!
>There is no freedom from me, there is only freedom through me
How is Babil formed? How brick get baked?
>Supermemes
>I was betrayed FOR THIS?
>>83213994
It's that they tried to elevate themselves to God. God had to put them in their place.

Knowing a German word doesn't make you smart, /tv/.
It was mediocre.
>>83213695
But you can fire arrows from the tower of babel and strike Magneto's daughter
>>83214471
Old testament God is a dick. I still think he's an immoral, alien space god of order that decided "Fuck it" and came here.

This was my favourite capescene this year.
I really like when Apocalypse is seeing all these bankers and makes a disgusted face.

I know it's your opinion but you're still wrong.

CURLEH MUSTACHE
>>83214820
He was that perfect mix of silly/camp with gravitas that the X-Men cartoon nailed so perfectly with the voice work
Angel's Talons on his organic wings were a really nice touch. Way to communicate he's more than just feathers.
>>83213695
Shut up mugga, do you go round talking bout arrows next to Mags.
>>83221839
I wonder how Magneto copes with theLoss
>>83221885
Speaking of, he ruined the whole fucking moment by yelling at the sky.
>"IS THES WAT YOU WANT FROM MEEEEEH?!!?1!"
Took me right back to 2007 /b/ for how exagerated and cliche'd it was.
>>83221930
Magneto is one melodramatic bitch, ain't he?
It's all his fault, he shouldn't tell his daughter stories about how his family was taken away from him.
>>83221990
The movie was all over the place, tonally.
The Quicksilver scene, although cool, was jarring as fuck.
I expected him to struggle deciding which ones to save and not being really able to cope with being fast enough.
But no, he went dancing with Moira and playing darts instead.
>>83222044
Quicksilver is immature, after all he is a neet.
Albeit a cool bro. He's like Bud Bundy, but with powers.
>>83214471
God was a real bastard before he had a kid. It really mellowed him out.
>>83214753
I said YOUNG MAN! Pick yourself off the ground!
>>83222044
>I expected him to struggle deciding which ones to save and being unable to cope with NOT being fast enough.
is what I meant to write. I managed to fuck that up.
>>83222228
Yeah, I get that, but it would've been nice to at least put him in that position, if only to disregard it like they usually do. At least it wouldn't have been so jarring.
>>83222319
Show me your warface
>>83222044
The tone was all over the goddamn place. What emotion is Apocalypse decapitating people with sand supposed to envoke? Fear? Laughter? Some combination of both? That seems highly inappropriate.
And accidentally Magneto's family. That was just fucking silly.
God, Apocalypse was underwhelming.
>>83213795
I'll take old testament references put in for ham over new testament references put in for pretension any day of the week.
