In reality, Goku vs Superman would either have Superman winning by powering up for an extended time in the sun or Goku winning by reaching Super Ultra Instinct Saiyan God Kaiyoken x20 form.

Gavok posted:I always liked how Death Battle handled Superman vs. Goku. They animated this big fight and had Superman win, explaining that Superman has Goku's top form beat in every category to a huge degree. The closing statement was that Goku's deal is that he's constantly breaking his limits while Superman has no limits to begin with. The problem with their take on it is that they didn't follow their own rules. Yeah, if you take any version of Superman ever written, Superman wins. Golden age Superman farts a galaxy at him while pantsing Jimmy Olsen, Superman One Million or the dumb Cosmic Armor one are for all intents and purposes omnipotent gods that don't even function in the same sort of reality as their source character and so forth. Death Battle didn't do that, though. In the first fight they used Post-Crisis Superman, and in the rematch they (supposedly) used New 52 Supes. Both versions cheated by pulling from elseworlds poo poo like All-Star Superman, but even ignoring that, their central thesis, that Superman can't lose because he has no limits is dumb when you are using versions of the character who have been shown to die. Post-Crisis Superman has defined limits on his powers at any given time. He gets straight up murdered by Doomsday in a fight, and while he does come back and beat the poo poo out of Doomsday in later issues, that doesn't mean he didn't have a limit at the time. New 52 Superman routinely lost fights because he isn't a walking god, just a really strong guy. The whole point was to take a version of Superman with a relatively defined set of abilities, so going "Lol, he has no limits even though he gets his rear end beat on the reg" is dumb as poo poo.

Goku loses fights all the time. So bad he dies sometimes. Over like a thousand episodes he only wins like ten times or something. He loses constantly in individual fights and just overcomes eventually over dozens of fights with the same guy.

Well yeah of course it don't matter, but it's still fun. The point isn't that Goku wins or Superman wins, the point is coming up with an entertaining and engaging scenario where one of them wins in a way that feels authentic to their characters and original stories. Nerds talk about poo poo like this because they enjoy it, and it's an entertaining way to have a good time with other nerds. punk rebel ecks posted:Uhh did you SEE Super? Covok posted:Yo man, freezer made it clear he ain't stopping his evil ways, son. And that's what's up. The thing about Frieza is that at this point he's much more interesting and fun as an ally than as an enemy. So even though he's clearly going to stay bad (because that's a core part of his personality), I'm positive he's going to be teaming up with the heroes again in the future.

There's a strong guy for him to fight! Now he can train and get stronger and fight him again!  Everything is coming up Goku!Goku cares way more about fighting than winning.

I'm honestly not sure how they can ever reconcile deadpool with the current x-men universe. Deadpool is in modern times, the x-men are only up to the 90's in the next film (while still looking like their 30 year younger selves from first class...), I don't know how you're going to have those people playing like, a 50 year old cyclopse, or an 80 year old professor X. Its just so hosed that I really want disney to reboot the x-men into the deadpool continuity, which would still be able to fit into the MCU.

Man, I don't want to get into this derail but two things have been bugging me about the Goku vs. Superman match-up. 1) Outside of heat vision and throwing stuff, Superman doesn't have ranged attacks while Goku is major part of his arsenal. 2) I'm pretty sure that a lot of Goku's attacks are considered magic, since they come from spirit, to which Superman is explicit vulnerable to. It's why Captain Marvel/Shazam is so powerful against him, Shazam is nothing but powered by magic. Goku would be like Shazam except he doesn't have Billy Batson to turn back into. And that's not even getting into how Ki blasts are a common technique among the Dragonball regulars. Even Krillin can shoot off Ki blasts, which means if Ki blasts are magic, then Krillin could probably beat Superman.

It was... okay? I didn't laugh nearly as much as at the first one. There was a lot to like but it didn't have the great pacing the first one did. Ryan Reynolds' constant patter wasn't as great but the slapstick gags were all on point; although it felt kinda weird I was the only one who laughed at Wade getting pulled in half. It definitely doesn't pick up until the second act. Not sorry I saw it but after the first maybe I was expecting too much. Colossus vs Juggernaut was amazing tho.

There's a good, carefree delivery of jokes in this movie. I got kind of annoyed with for instance Guardians of the Galaxy 2 kind of overtly drawing attention to every joke it made, like it was scripted to death.

On Tuesday May 29th it will be acceptable to drop spoilers. Movie will have been out a week in the United States and as the only country that matters in God’s time zone which is eastern standard time, at 8 am y’all can discuss without it. Plus Solo will be out as the new hotness to take fanboy rage so no one will care about Deadpool 2 by that time. I am posting this now because I will be in Alaska next week and may not care to follow up then because I will be too busy fighting off bears, dog sledding, skippering my boat, and hopefully being cared for by hot women on a ship.

One detail I thought was funny is that dead Vanessa bits were mocking Wolverine's Jean Grey dreams, plus a bit of All Dogs Go to HeavenFisheyStix posted:Was it at this movie?? Looks like I went to the wrong theater and saw Book Club by mistake.

Confession time: I'm kinda hoping Vanessa stays dead, so she can end up as Lady Death. It would be a subplot in Deadpool 3 that we'd only get to see bits and pieces of: there's a civil war in the underworld, and each time Wade is knocked unconscious or takes a nap we get to see Vanessa fighting demons and becoming stronger and more powerful until eventually she's running the joint.

I have never "gotten" Deadpool because I don't think referential humor is funny and on that account I have no idea why I decided to see this movie. Even given that, it's not as good as Deadpool 1. "I'm going to rip you in half now" was good though.

I'm fine with them (initially) killing off Vanessa just so they can mock Wolverine's Jean Grey dreams from The Wolverine. Also, did anyone else catch the huge Karl Marx portrait hanging on the wall in the X-Men Mansion?

Was a bit worried they might have lost something in the sequel but no, still great. Still undecided on funniest thing but all the x-men in that back room was a belter. And everything with Vanisher. And the interviews for X-Force. Also Domino was brilliant and good luck is an awesome superpower. Good stuff e: drat it I wish youtube still made it easy to see mid/post credit scenes but its all some wanker trying to "explain" things and they never just show it.
