Unlike Man of Steel, the Avengers took time to save people and there were sequences where they ran around saving people. It makes sense that the death toll wouldn't be huge.
>>
I don't get it. The government were going to nuke Manhattan, wouldn't that have killed way more people than the Avengers ? They should be thanking the Avengers for saving their asses
>>
Even 'hundreds' is ridiculously low when you think about it. Like 3000 people died on 9/11 and that was nowhere near as much carnage as a fucking alien army invading, with huge monsters destroying every building.

>implying the only things that happen in the film are what we see
I mean, I guess this means they never poop or pee. Goes against what I learned in a book as a kid about everybody but okay.

>They could do nothing to save the thousands inside the buildings
Except evacuate the buildings, and there is a scene where Captain America tells the cops to evacuate the buildings, and we do see a building get evacuated.

But again they don't poop and pee and unless we see that specific building get evacuated and every single person inside individually make it out safe, obviously people died.

Wait, but we don't actually see people die, so how did they die if the logic is we have to see it happen for it to happen?

The scope of that battle looked a lot wider, and involved a satellite crash from space. I don't buy it.

and then they killed it

*Marvel

Lets not forget that DC had the nuts to admit the real casualities that would occur in a midtown superhero brawl. '74' is an insult to the intelligence of the viewer and a classic case of Marvel trying to make themselves seem less dark by just being ridiculous.

In Man of Steel, there's never an attempt by Superman to save lives. In Avengers, the Avengers spend time saving people's lives and evacuating buildings.

It's a different situation between these two films and you've completely missed the point.

Even Batman vs Superman confirms that many people were injured and killed in Man of Steel, and they also make an effort to say "this is the evacuated part of town" when they fight now.

Maybe you should try to think your opinions through before sharing them on the internet, because if you don't, people will poke holes in them and tear them apart. Consider this a lesson.

I'm sorry but this Marvel shill shit has to end. There were huge alien monsters, crashing spacecraft and aircraft and gods fighting eachother in the streets. Just because a guy with a star on his chest saved one room of people doesn't mean that '74' is a realistic count.

The difference between Man of Steel and The Avengers is that Man of Steel wasn't afraid to acknowledge the realities of a throwdown on that scale. The reality is, there would have been major casualties, even if a few rooms of people got saved.

They built emergency shelters and developed evacuation plans in response to the events of Thor 1, The Incredible Hulk and all the Iron Man movies.

Additionally, the Alien invaders prioritised combatants over non-combatants because the inverse is just fucking retarded.
>>
>>67803285
During the final fight sequence, where all the buildings are being destroyed? No, he doesn't stop during that fight to save people.

Meanwhile, the Avengers take their time to save people.

I'm not saying one is better than the other (which is why I believe you're being defensive). It's just different. In the case of Man of Steel, the consequences of Superman not saving people is a lot of people die as a result of the fight. Because the Avengers actively took time to save people during their final battle, their death toll is much, much lower.

every time someone gets punched in mos (or bvs) they fly through a building or two. there's like two avengers that can do that and mostly they don't.

the aliums are also busy actually fighting police and avengers rather than flying through random civilians.

Superman decided to fly into that ship Zod was flying and instead of changing the flight of the ship or trying to stop the ship, he just decides to shoot the ship down which then crashes into a ton of buildings leveling them.

Then he proceeds to fight Zod where they fly through several buildings full of people and completely level one or two.

He didn't just "save one building." He ordered the chief of police, who was on scene, to evacuate the area where the fighting was going to take place. Before that, the aliens hadn't destroyed anything really, they just showed up.

The chief of police, after being at first skeptical of Captain America, then starts order the cops and firemen and other emergency workers to evacuate.

Either you didn't see the movie or you're being purposefully ignorant.

Thats the problem, huge dragons flying through the streets clipping buildings, Hulk flying around, Thor shooting lightning everywhere.

They didn't level any buildings though, Hulk didn't level any buildings just damaged the brick work a bit and Thor was firing his lightning directly upwards at the hole in the sky.

Ironman lured the big dragon monster to the Avengers to take it out and minimised loss of life. Superman dragged Zod all over the city and crashed a plane into a bunch of buildings.

Precisely. I'm not blaming Superman for the deaths or hating on it for having people die when it makes sense.

But while it makes sense in Man of Steel for there to be a large death toll (nobody to save them), it doesn't make sense in Avengers because there were people running around saving the civilians.

I think you're being overly defensive because you think I'm saying "Man of Steel was bad and Avengers was good" when I'm not. I'm just stating what happened in the two movies was different. The Avengers saved people. Superman didn't. This is confirmed not only in their respective movies, but also in their respective sequels.

Because it really doesn't matter.

You're complaining about the number being a little low in a scene where the number isn't even said, it's just in the background and you could easily miss it if you weren't pausing the video and looking for things to hate on.

Ultimately, in the larger scheme of things, if that's the biggest problem the movie has, that the death toll for an alien invasion is "unrealistic," if a minor nitpick is the best you've got, then you've really got nothing at all.

Except that was a targeted attack with the intention of killing people, the chitauri weren't there to kill, they were there to enslave the people for Loki.

I don't like the Avengers, but purposely misunderstanding what happened in that film only serves to hurt the argument that it was a bad movie.

Ultimately, getting into some nitpick about the death toll is pointless. Even if you're right, it doesn't prove that the movie was bad in any way. Just that the numbers on an image in a trailer for a film that isn't even out yet and subject to change were a wee bit off.
>>

>remember boys, when you invade that planet, no killing!!

>>67803968

that you need to pause scenes and find unimportant things to nitpick because the main plot is coherent and entertaining?

>Ultimately, in the larger scheme of things, if that's the biggest problem the movie has, that the death toll for an alien invasion is "unrealistic," if a minor nitpick is the best you've got, then you've really got nothing at all.

The consequences of the previous movies are being used as an excuse in the movie to push for the regulation of the Avengers with the Accords documents.

So the fact that these numbers are ridiculous low shouldn't warrant reason for anyone to step on the Avengers' tolls. They should be winning medals, not punitive measures.

So the entire deal end up making no sense. They're showing the death-toll a something huge and horrible when it isn't.

But don't get me wrong, the first Avengers movie is one of my favorites from Marvel. It just feels like the stakes are always understated and the loss of human life isn't as impactful as it should be. Which in turn makes the climax and the triumph of the heroes feel less important that it should.
>>
>>67803361
God bless the quips.
>>
>>67804013

That loss of life is just background information that doesn't matter.
>>
What DCucks don't understand is that the reason why something like death count can be overlooked in Marvel flicks is because the rest of the movie is coherent and not completely shit like Man of Murder and Dawn of Convenient Evacuated Areas
>>
>>67804061

It's because Marvel chooses not to address sticky moral dilemmas like collateral damage.

They kinda just minimize the significance and brush it off to the side.

The actual numbers don't matter. If it's 76 or 77 or 1000 or 2000 or 20,000 or eleventy-billion, it really doesn't matter. What matters is "people died and we're not happy about it." You're completely missing the point on purpose in order to make an argument that is weak and thus actually hurts our position.

In other words, quit squabbling about a number that appears briefly in a trailer and doesn't really matter, and actually talk about things within the films that do suck (like how every single characters is this quippy smart ass and they all sound the same). Nitpicking makes people who don't like these movies (like me) look absolutely silly.

Oh no, the same stupid people who loved Jack and Jill and Pixels didn't like Batman vs Superman! Truly, the fact that it wasn't accepted by the uneducated, uncultured masses is a true sign that it is bad, and not the exact opposite! /s

This is the thing though, people who have a certain agenda will always blow up numbers in their favor, no matter how stupid it seems. "What? 74 people died? That's terrible! No one should've died!" Honestly I kind of wonder if they purposefully lowered the number to make audiences side with the villains less, if thousands had died, people may think there's an actual point in heavily regulating the avengers, but if it's only 74, audiences can see that it's not that important. Remember, the people lobbying for regulation are meant to be radicals, with the main two heads of the movement being a guy with a massive guilt complex and a military nut job with a personal vendetta against one of the avengers.

>>67804003
the chitauri weren't a random group of space niggers though, they were an elite military chosen/raised by Thanos.
>>
>>67804278
forgot to add this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZzzYLV_HWA

it's an example of the type of radical "there should never be casualties ever and the heroes are the ones to blame if anything goes wrong" type of mentality in another fiction.
>>
>>67802112

The Avengers aren't even in New York when the invasion starts. Only Iron Man is there. This 74 number makes absolutely no sense
>>
>>67804003
That was the plan, though. Invade the planet without killing people. If their plan were "kill people" they'd be bombing the planet from orbit. You can't possibly think that an alien race with that kind of advanced technology would have to fly down in order to kill people.

Plus, there's never a scene where they're killing people. There is a scene where they take prisoners.
>>
>>67804278
People really want to see people die horribly in a superhero film? It's so silly. You can't insult Marvel for being fun films and then also complain about death count.

Small bombing, but focused on a metro terminal and an airport where hundreds if not thousands of people go every day.

Chitauri, I think, didn't blew up entire buildings, but yeah, one would expect more than just 70 casualties.

>>67802078
The movie is bad and shies away from real world issues, ironically promoting this mentality that cultural decay isn't bad and that movies shouldn't make you think.
>>
>>67804407
Now how are the numbers when they're evacuating from an alien invasion and they have superheroes that can fly and lift heavy things and shoot lasers on their side? How long does it take to evacuate a building when you have someone who can fly in and carry people out?
>>
>>67804212

and any film trying to elevate itself above the level of cartoon escapism is trashed.
>>
>>67804582
Because the capeshit genre doesn't lend itself well to gritty dramas. It doesn't help when the people involved in making the movies are incompetent.
>>
>>67804575
>Now how are the numbers when they're evacuating from an alien invasion
Probably really fucking terrible since the police and fire department can't do their job unmolested and the streets are clogged with abandoned vehicles

>they have superheroes that can fly and lift heavy things and shoot lasers on their side
Who are all busy fighting

> How long does it take to evacuate a building when you have someone who can fly in and carry people out?
A long time since you have a grand total of 2 guys who can fly and they're busy doing other shit.
>>
>>67802078
they knew that with an attack as big as that one was there had to be some who died to make it seems realistic but they probably didn't want it to be too many people so they settled on a number between 100 and 50
probably
