Action one liners have pauses in between to let you savor them.
They're also, you know, one line, and delivered by some beefcake with charisma, not a tedious back and forth between blandly pretty faces.

While Marvel quips have pauses in between for the audience laugh track, followed by a dumb reaction face from another cast member.

Hmm. Why do action one-liners feel so different from marvel banter?

I think them being delivered after someone dies adds some zest. No one really dies in action scenes in Marvel movies (or if they do, it's not casual and quick enough for a one liner), so there's no opportunity. It feels lamer delivering a one liner to a guy who you only knocked out.

the joke is funnier because of contrast in a real action movie. in a Marvel movie the action is also a loving joke so who can tell?

Dutch: "Stick around..."
Mac steps in from off camera: "Knife job, Major."
Blain gets blasted through the wall and lands on the ground in front of them.
Dillon: "Guess they didn't like your nasty attitude either. You're hit!"
Blain gets up dusting himself "I aint got time to..." pulls knife from dead goon "...blade."
They all nod and smile to one another as the group strikes a pose and then moves out.

I think the hulk line "that's my secret cap, im always angry" was a pretty good line but not really a 1 liner I guess since it was before a fight

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

There's no such thing as a good horror film. Inevitably the person that tells you about the latest horror masterpiece they just saw will try and show you their collection of OnlyFans videos of Japanese women in stilettos stomping kittens to death.

Did Luchajones get banned? I thought he just fled in shame after lusting after underage titties. But it has been a while, and unlike you I'm old.

My favorite part of Us is how my barber at the time found out I like horror movies and proceeded to tell me the entire plot to both Us and Suspiria after I told him I hadn't seen either of them

I eventually saw Us. It was kind of wanky. I saw Suspiria too and it was just not my cup of tea

ok but what did you do after you strangled him to death
