The best part of Attack of the Clones is that, near the beginning, someone says 'Maybe it was that guy who did this' and everyone else goes 'no, it couldn't be that guy' then it's totally that guy.

Deadpool and ASM2 costumes best superhero costumes. Iron Man is up there but my favorite is Bleeding Edge and I want to see true Extremis nonesense on the screen. Tony's Armor interface pouring out of his marrow and bones and having a tech God link.

Kind of like Ex Machina by Vaughn but Ellis did his version

Go even further, give him the living metal symbiote armor from Axis: http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Iron_Man_Armor_Model_50

At this point he's wearing a psychic flying laser-blasting T-1000, it's completely over the top and amazing.

I, sadly, read the Star Wars thread for years. If anyone's obsessed with the prequels, it's the supporters, not the detractors. That thread is in fact ground zero for this 'nerds are still obsessed with the prequels' argument, as though there would be even 10% of the discussion of them without Cnut and SMG. Again I'm not disputing the idea that people who didn't like the movies still don't, or even that some of them have silly reasons for it, but 'obsession' is such a strange argument.

'In 25,000 pages of SMG and Cnut defending the prequels, other people occasionally criticise them. Angry, obsessed nerds, just smdh'

Except it'S usually someone like Tezzor randomly making GBS threads on them that starts these derails?

The brilliant thing is SMG doesn't even have to, and rarely does, chime in on BvS

Lots of us are willing to go to bat for that film. Maybe because of how weird some of the criticism is of it.

well why not

Given how popular the SW prequels have become (via memes) it'd be downright impossible for anyone, let alone noted superdork Peter Parker to be unfamiliar with Star Wars.

Congrats Kidman, you've been relegated to "some guys mom"

For the record, Kidman is younger than Robert Downey Jr .

instead we get awful actresses like that girl from Game of Thrones to play the superheroines. Like no wonder no one gives a poo poo about the female heroes

Nicole Kidman is 49 and it would be completely reasonable for her to play some superhero's mother, though not Jason Momoa since he is 37.

The only thing I can think of is maybe the gifs don't capture some inherit weight that the film has?

Because I've only seen Giant Man from these gifs and holy poo poo that looks terrible. He seriously looks like he's just inflated and struggling not to get swept away by the wind. You just

You don't tell an actor to act like they're giant. That's stupid and it ends up looking stupid. Now if he WAS acting unbalanced, that'd be a whole other thing, but no. He's just acting like he's filled with helium.

Watch the scene in total, it's not exactly fair to judge things by a gif. The slowness isn't the best, but there's a gleeful, almost madened powered up toddler thing that is happening when he giants up that isn't getting captured there.

I don't know about you guys, but I am loving these Civil War clips. A mecha fights a giant man, saved by a superhero robot and Spider-Man. That's just fun.

12 years is a life time under the sea.

I forget, are aquapeople super long lived and she's actually a few hundred years old, or do they live the same length and we're just dealing with a standard "Hal Jordan is a pedophile, but it's OK because space is the ultimate international waters" situation.

Are you being obtuse? Obviously When Murdock goes and gets his actual costume from home He's going to toss the rag to Danny and be all, "Here put this on it's better than nothing", and there you go you now have Iron Fist's mask.

except they showed that ww2 footage of a proper looking iron fist with the thingy on. how could daredevil have seen this video IF HE DOESNT HAVE EYES?? think he throws some rags at JJ and LC? Like here Jess, you have the orange, hehe Luke you can be purple, Danny you get blue, I'll take the custom fit bullet proof cowl since it's just left over.

I look forward to Iron Fist's out of place and blindingly white sneakers that he wears with the "new costume", which is just a green suit and yellow tie.

He can't see, though. There was that time his arch-nemesis Shutterbug kidnapped the Mayor's daughter and hid her away in his Darkroom and was like "haha Daredevil don't worry, I'm sure you'll find her in time. Why, I'll even show you where she is!" and help up a photo of the location but Daredevil was like "blast you Shutterbug! Stop mocking my disability and let the girl go!"
