Maybe it's only his first selfmade costume. Like how in IM2 Vanko only get's a proper suit in the end.

The leaked pictures of Shocker also show that it's a ragtag, handmade suit, so maybe towards the end Vulture makes them both new suits.

What's so great about Vulture is that he's an old man who dresses up like a giant bird to commit crimes and fight a teenaged kid. Imagine your grandpa sitting at home sewing his own green bird costume that he's planning on robbing banks with all the while being so self-assured thinking "Yes, this will really intimate them!". The costume should really embrace that inherent silliness, then subvert it with making the old man in the silly costume quite deadly and technologically capable, to Peter's surprise.

The electromagnetic harness is supposed to give him more strength so at least when the old man punches Spider-Man or puts Spider-Man over his knee and spanks him it actually does hurt. Edit: never mind the spanking thing. I don't want to spoil the ending to my fanfic.

Burkion posted:Nah that's Silvermane some times. So he's a mutant? That's the only way he could take a beating from Spider-Man at full "power" and keep on ticking. Are his wings self-driven AI like Doc Ock's arms? The Arms gently caress with the nervous system and "make" Doc stronger. Do the wings do similar?

ANYTHING That poo poo is so great, it bites The Invisible Man hard but I find that to be cool.

The Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon had a neat arc where the villains were being equipped and goaded into grandiose street heists and revenge schemes specifically to keep Spidey's attention on the small time while the bosses engaged in some Kingpin-level corporate megacrime.

The Arms gently caress with the nervous system and "make" Doc stronger. Do the wings do similar? You just don't really get it do you man He's a pissed off spiteful old man. His super power is being a spiteful old man. That is the source of his power and strength. Through spite alone he can out invent Tony Stark and beat the poo poo out of literal super humans because gently caress you he's old. It's what makes him so goddamn great. He is utterly ridiculous to look at, even for, and especially for, an early Spider-Man villain, and they had already replaced him with the 'cool more dangerous' variant. Then he comes back from the dead with nothing but some moxie and a lot of goddamn aggression and beats the poo poo out of the fucker and then beats up Peter too. His wings have no AI or anything of the sort. First they were a magnetic rig because gently caress you he makes magnets work the way he wants them to, then when Peter figured out how to get around that bullshit, he up and invented Anti Gravity flight because also gently caress you. Him having his gear made for him, or even made from stolen hero tech, is missing the point of angry ancient senior citizen who can fly. It's just another in a long line of Marvel loving over the villains in favor of who even knows at this point. I really wish we could have gotten Sam Raimi's Vulture. It would have been a treat.

The wings legitimately do juice Vulture up a bit but him being strong has never really been emphasized all that much beyond 'he can throw furniture around and take a punch,' which is basically what you get just from wearing a costume in superhero comics. Like Burkion says, his real super power is being old and bitter. DeimosRising posted:That poo poo is so great, it bites The Invisible Man hard but I find that to be cool. It's fascinating how practically every spider man villain decides to do street crime when ownership of a giant tech firm and all the gross unpunishable crime that goes with that is staring them in the face. Now, why he didn't just go window-shopping with the prototype, even if he did that AFTER trying to ruin his former buddy's life, well, I think that's back to Burkion posted:He's a loving old man whose super power is that he has more hate and spite than the goddamn Hulk.

As someone who has read a number of comics featuring the Vulture, all I'll say is that it's amazing how much better a flattering 200 word summary of a character can sound compared to the actual work product. The Vulture as he exists in the Spider-man comics isn't as prone to showing up in utterly tedious and lame stories as Doctor Octopus or the Green Goblin, but he's no great shakes. Now the Lizard and the world's most pathetic dipshit Kraven the Hunter, those are some villains. edit: I will concede that Vulture as played by 2012 RNC chair-lecturing mode Clint Eastwood would be amusing Crion fucked around with this message at 03:29 on Nov 20, 2016 |

Infinity War started filming two weeks ago on a sound stage in London. Look for set pictures and leaks to start happening soon when they start filming in New York next week.

What mainstream comics character isn't better in concept than execution, by sheer weight of garbage stories if nothing else.

Everyone knows that Marvel's Netflix and Movie divisions aren't playing nice with each other and would never loan equipment to each other.

His arguments at the end about cameras is drat silly. Drive was shot on the Alexa, don't pawn it off on Arri, there is no guarantee the new red would look better. Yeap, Sicario, has some boring and muted cinematography.

Yea, Sicario does a lot with lights and colours to contrast the ethical quandaries presented in the film. Also, this essay doesn't talk about back lighting and why its missing. One of the things Deadpool did so well and looks like a Fincher lite film.
