Wouldn't be the first hero they have killed off, recently, so I wouldn't put it past them. But here's hoping it's not permanent!

Quote:Let me put it this way: I went to see Avengers despite the Thor movie.Wondering how much of an impact the previous Iron Man/Thor/Hulk/CA movies in the recent past had on the Avengers' box office numbers. If Marvel had made the decision to simply make an Avengers movie first, and then spin off separate movies, like they did with X-Men, would the hype have been this high?
But yeah, I think it's good that they didn't have to spend time to establish each member's backstory first.

Quote:Hawkeye got to shoot him with an exploding arrow. That as much of a smackdown as Hawkeye could ever hope for.I don't know. Hawkeye never got to smash him down, and falling to Iron Man and Cap seemed to be more in his plan than them really smashing him down.
Widow got to interrogate him. Fury just got to gloat. But really it seemed only Thor and Hulk really got to smash him around. -
Quote:I made that comment. It was a joke because someone started shouting statistics. I don't expect Black Widow really is Asatru.Comments about how it could almost be religious persecution, etc, are merely being made after viewing them with todays cynical way-too-PC eyes.

Quote:Wouldn't be the first time someone had assumed they were the centre of the universe.Actually, it's been suggested that Primal Erath is called that because of how it's like a dimensional hub, with links to more dimensions than other Earths have, which is why it's such an important target for multiverse conquerors.

(Techically, he order Anti-Matter to let Arachnos' plan to blow up Neuropolis continue unopposed. But we don't talk about that.)

Knowing the stakes, defeat will not only spell the end of True Earth, but also the end of mankind. We will fight to the bitter end, no matter the cost. If we succumb, so be it, but know that your villainy will not go unopposed.

Do not obfuscate the truth with cries for "proof" in a thinly veiled attempt to circumvent evidence obtained from Primitive Earth's own agents, send to destroy the last vestiges of humanity in the multiverse.
The Bold Defenders of True Earth do not answer to so-called primals. We have a much higher calling than Primitive Earth's petty warmongering.
(Also, it's right there. In the quoted text.) -
The next Avengers also need more David Hasselhoff!

Quote:And maybe Black Widow is Asatru and his comment was borderline religious persecution. A modern person might have been a little more sensitive to religious differences.Actually, since 54% of the world's population (and *much* higher in the US) today follow a monotheistic faith wherein their one 'God' is perfectly transcendent and omnipotent, there'd be a whole lot of people who could respond as Cap did.
Or be more focused on jumping out of an airplane.
Whichever the case, I found the comment appropriate for a 90 year old man. You know, the way you just smile and nod when a senior citizen makes a racist comment. -
Speaking of Thor's hammer, I still think it looks really lame. Wish they had gone with something cooler. The "brick on a stick" look doesn't really do Mjolnir justice, imho.

That's really the crux of the problem, isn't it? The Admin messages should be reserved for important, critical, must-see information. Not some random Dev trying to RP Nemesis.

I just wish you could stack the toggles!

Quote:If you had, say, a few agents placed in Portal Corp or in a similar position, you'd be well aware of these "primals" and their fascination with invading dimensions that has never done anything to them, or is not even aware of them.Primal Earth has invaded multiple dimensions at this point, including causing the government of one world to be overthrow, replaced with a very pro-war group.
A pre-emptive strike against Primitive Earth is the only prudent response to evidence such as Rikti Earth. We can only pray that the Great Leader will not fail in his endeavour to keep the good people of Praetoria safe from more primal incursions. -
If they have to "revive" him, I'd rather they just went "after 20 hours of surgery, medical staff managed to stabilize his condition" than do some silly "oh it wasn't really him" mumbo jumbo.

The first half was the movie. The last half was just a CGI slogfest. Which, will all kinds of neat-looking, wouldn't be particular interesting without any kind of setting to anchor it to.
