oh indeed

Most likely both at once.

TLB should make a Ghost Rider 2 thread

I still haven't seen the Edward Norton Hulk film. I would rate the Avengers films so far in the order of Iron Man, Captain America, Iron Man 2, and Thor.

I'm not a big fan of comics so I'm not super hyped for this but I will probably go see it.

Zonugal

For me it would probably be:

Thor
Iron Man
Captain America
Iron Man 2
The Incredible Hulk

With obviously the Coulson shorts being on the very top of such a list.

The thing below his hand is a stabilizer and the one about it is his sight.

The arc lacks the wheel thingies of most compound bows

That looks like a regular old bow with some gadgets glued to the front

It actually helps with that when hunting.

Deer and other animals have great hearing and are easily startled. It can help to reduce torque, noise, and other things.

Least that's what I've been told.

I ain't killed no bambi's mom with a bow.

:twisted:

Macro9

Can't forget about accuracy either

You're a hunter not a butcher

Well you probably do that too, but ahh fuck it don't listen to me

You've never seen a modern top of the line bow have you? They have more moving parts and doo-hickeys then Hawk-eyes bow.

You and me, chief.

Though I put Iron Man as a very close 2nd and Cap as a distinct 3rd.

Thor is just really, really good to me. Can't say why, just fucking enjoyed it.

Antimatter

i'd rank thor higher if the fight against the destroyer was better and if the romance plot was nonexistent/better

PaperLuigi44

Iron Man
Captain America
Thor
Iron Man 2

And I haven't seen Hulk

Your opinion is objectively wrong. I'm afraid we're going to have to amputate.

BlankZoe

Loki has always been kind of a brat too. A great character but still a brat.

his whole thing is trying to find acceptance because daddy why don't you love me like you love big dumb Thor???

well, not anymore since he is now KidLoki who is fantastic.

Loki tricking Thor into attacking the Frost Giants? Pure fantastic.

Hey Tox, you and me against the world.

Why does it have three strings?

Because it runs through the pulleys so it's easier to draw but it delivers a greater force onto the arrow.

Antimatter

yeah, well

Tox

The Destroyer fight was good, up until it involved Thor, like, at all.

KalTorak

the Destroyer fight was one-sided one way, then one-sided the other way

nightmarenny

If Thor has a weakness as a film it was the fight scenes. The first was to dark and to fast. The Destroyer wasn't a really fight.

the end fight was alright though.

Does anyone else think Nerf bows are lame? I mean, the string has no function; it's purely decorative. It's a bow-shaped gun.
