Kirk vs Picard (WWF vs Shakespeare)

Continuing the discussion from Funniest "Because I'm Batman" joke:
Originally, I had hoped I would get more Batman jokes.... but people got stuck on how good/bad Iron Man 3 was.
That wasn't the point.
Unless someone thinks Iron Man 3 was better than Dark Knight.
But please, start a new thread for that!!!!
-
Dark Knight is better
-
As if.
Tony saved the President, Pepper, and Rhodey.Batman saved the chick, and lost Harvey. After he decided to save Harvey.
The most interesting scene, doesn't even involve Batman saving anyone. Instead the criminals save the civilians.

From each according to his suit, to each according to his origin story.

Hold on, Ima let you finish, but I just wanted to say Star Wars is the best movie ever.
-
It's just a nerd jizz fest over a WWII reenactment with spellsword samurai.
The matrix did a better job.
-

You better feel lucky that McCarthy is dead and also not a comic book fan.
-

I didn't write the Batman scenes.
Take it up with them.
-
Dark Knight is better
Dark Knight never ended. There were three different spots when it could have ended just fine, but it kept going! That alone made the movie a suckfest.
-
OK, I've never actually watched any Iron Man movie, or read any comic, so let me see if I have this straight.
There's this rich guy, Tony Stark, that has a big company that produces weapons 'n' stuff. Then he does some magic, puts a small fusion reactor in his chest, builds a super strong flying ridiculously overpowered robotic armor with an AI and becomes a superhero. Right?
At this point, couldn't the suit just go fight by itself? Having a person inside just seems like unnecessary weight. Maybe make it remote controlled through a virtual reality device or something.

So you've seen Iron Man 3?

I think they had to wait for the Oracle Cloud to mature a bit.

But but... they had to make their anti-Patriot-Act quip.
Wait, that was the first movie.
-
I guess they should change the name to Iron Suit then.
-
or Ultron
-
So is that movie 90 minutes of two superpowered robots fighting each other? Because it should be.
-
Not if we find out Ultron is actually a Polynesian actor wearing steel plates.
-
Dark Knight was way better than Iron Man 1-2-3. Not only because it was better, but because Nolan finally made a Batman that didn't suck.
I mean, the Tim Burton's were fine, but Nolan is 10 steps above.

I think this has to do with the time when Iron Man (comic) started and no one thought we could reach that level of technology. But yes, Iron Man 3 ends with a lot of autonomous suits kicking some mutants asses.
-
You know what I realized? Unlike most superpowers, super-though flying robots don't actually go against the laws of physics. In fact, if the world continues its path (i.e. spending huge amounts on military research) we're practically guaranteed to have them within the next century. So that would be the most realistic Avengers movie.
Imagine a movie realistically portraying two groups of engineers struggling to build the best flying robo-soldier army to defeat each other. Maybe in the format of a "mockumentary" explaining the engineering problems they find and how they solve them. I'd watch the fuck out of that.
-
The problem is that expectations changed.
The Tim Burton movies served a purpose.
The first series of Spiderman movies followed the same pattern.
They were trying to emulate comic style from the silver/gold age, and blend it with over the top action like Running Man, Big Trouble in little ChinaThe fact is that culture had moved on, and they were too late.
The fact that the on-screen Batman is finally dipping into his detective background, and people are liking that, says something.
-
Talking about nerd fiction, I've thinking of writing a book about a man that becomes a semi-god dictator by infecting all living things with nanobots. Some sort of thinking exercise on the options and the changes and their consequences if you were omnipresent and omniscient.
-
because Nolan finally made a Batman that didn't suck.
*cough* TAS *cough*

Yeah, and it's a shame nobody made any movies at all between those two. I mean nobody. At all.
-
So is
thatevery movie 90 minutes of two superpowered robots fighting each other? Because it should be.
<uhhh
-
Nolan
is
Overratedthe fight scene in the series in the 3rd movie is one of the most boring action scenes i've ever seen
-
But in reality, he is a robot.
He just pulled a Hannibal and wore someone's face.Double gasp.
-
So is that movie 90 minutes of two superpowered robots fighting each other? Because it should be.
Well, once we get Pacific Rim 2 we could splice them together and have 90mins of giant robot on giant monster action.
If we run out of footage, there's like 2 minutes of usable monster combat in the new Godzilla too...
-
NolanisOverrated
I don't know about his comic book stuff or whatever, but Interstellar I thought was excellent.
(Maybe a little silly in the last 20-30 minutes, but hey, it's only a movie...)
-
-
I prefer Batman Begins to the Dark Knight
-
I don't know about his comic book stuff or whatever, but Interstellar I thought was excellent.
I'd enjoy it more if I weren't sitting next to two guys groaning all the time because they apparently expected J.J. Abrams' Star Break 3.
-
Yeah, and it's a shame nobody made any movies at all between those two. I mean nobody. At all.
Oh please, the Batman & Robin ones were horrible. Yes, the scenarios were fine, but they were too cartoonish.
-
So you've seen Iron Man 3?
Or, you know, the first Iron Man. Where Ivan Vanko made the horde of Drone Iron Men?

Touchē...
But that was the second one?

It seems to me that the only people who like movies never post on the internet. Because all internet movie discussions are about how terrible every movie is.

i know it gets a lot of bad press but 50 shades of grey is actually a really good movie.... so long as you don't take it as relationship advice.
Filed under: doesn't count. I haven't seen the movie myself yet

Good; not sure if I want you getting ideas from it or not…

the pond between us should at least give you a head start. :-P

Yes, you're right. The first was The Big Lebowski as Iron Man, wasn't it?
-
-
I understand how you can confuse Arnold Swach... as a part of the scenario.
-
Yeah, it was hard to take this seriously.
"Aaaaarrrrhuuug, freeze!!!!"
"My wife.... Ohs noooes."
-
Yeah, it was hard to take this seriously.
was pretty damn fun to watch when you stopped taking it seriously though.
just like William Shatner's acting.
-
The Big Lebowski as Iron Man
Nobody calls him Lebowski. You got the wrong guy. He's the Dude, man.
-
-
he's a fun guy to a watch but a sir patrick stewart he is not.
