Why not? I see literally nothing wrong with putting magnets on his shield. If it's more convenient than to just pick it up off the ground, then that's good.

It's like spidey "growing" webshooters instead of building them. Doesn't change shit about the narrative but a whole lotta somebodies are gonna get a stick up their asses about it.

Except that in Spidey's case it does?

>>84861372
Spider-Man having organic webshooters is a big enough departure that I understand why some people would be upset. A more appropriate comparison would be the webshoots from "The Amazing Spider-Man" that lit up when the web was fired. /co/ blew a gasket over them.

i found hilarious that he got his fucking shield but all those military gear and tanks just refused to follow the magnetic call of nature and grave him under steel mountain.

It's obvious that it's not on all the time

>>84861739
It's built by Stark, it's probably not a regular magnet. It works by science energy something repulsor something arc reactor magic.

Or maybe just a specific magnetic frequency?

The implication was that by replacing the part of Spidey's backstory where he builds his webshooters you are, in fact, changing the narrative. If he builds webshooters then later develops organic ones, you haven't taken away that he built his webshooters he just replaced them.

Complaining that Cap is a different character because he upgraded his shield clip is like saying they ruined him because he changed shoes.

i'm samefaggin here and won't say what he said is pretty dumb but take this in consideration.

maybe tony created two electromagnets that are syncronized to be activated at the same time (each with the opposite pole) at a frequency high enough to not be perceptible to humans but to make them work as magnets only when cap wants. of course there are problems like that it would still get atracted to other magnetic stuff but a lower strength because of a lower duty and that if it's too fast, there will probably be some kind of magnetic capacitance that does not let it work as a square wave perfectly but it's tony who we are talking about
>>
>>84860839
Dude all I could think about for the entire movie was how much the magnetic shield ruined his character.
>>
>>84862064
Building webshooters himself is quick and effective tool to establish Peter as above average intelligence.

If anything, Cap using whatever is available to enhance his combat capabilities highlights his tactical mindset and skills, as well reinforcing his image as the ultimate soldier.

The magnetic shield is from the comics.
A magnetic shield wouldn't ruin the character, it doesn't change anything significant to Captain America, just a nice little enhancement to his shield. Not sure if troll or just stupid.
>>
>>84863249

Cap knowing how to throw and pick up his shield at mid-air show his tactical mindset and skills. It also show his connection and expertise in handling the shield, making him and the shield all that more special.

Any smuck can use magnets to handle Cap's shield. That's a short-cut. Only THE REAL Cap know how to throw it just right to have it back at his hands. It's something that he trained and only he can do.

What this movie showed is that Cap doesn't know how to use his own shield and need outside help for it. This is akin to Tony needing constant auto-pilot to use his armor or else he isn't able to fly and fight.

>What this movie showed is that Cap doesn't know how to use his own shield and need outside help for it.

No it didn't. He literally uses electromagnets that he can turn on and off to pick his shield off the ground and onto his arm. That's it. That's all it's for. It's the only time we saw him using it.
>>
>>84861253
Iron man isn't magnetic
>>
>>84862755
I don't think anybody has a problem with Tony being able to build a system of magnets that grab Cap's shield specifically.

But that anon literally just said magnetic frequency like that's a thing that exists.
>>
>>84864409
Wow you are dumb.

If it's magnetic then he'll be Magneto's bitch when Disney gets the rights to him back.

>>84864409
Hey dingus, there's 3 movies before this that feature Cap slinging his shield like a champ without the magnets. I feel like it's pretty clear that he doesn't need them, but they could come in handy sometimes. Like when you're fighting a giant robot on top of a truck & you loose your shield after flinging it into his chest.
>>
>>84866852
Anon, that's crazy. Just like everyone know you can't swim if you've ever been in a boat.

Jack and Stan gave Cap a magnetic shield recall within a few issues of reintroducing the character back in the fucking 60s.
Read a comic!
>>
>>84866613
So you're saying that Cap is a highly tactical, skilled fighter who is capable of utilizing an otherwise merely flashy tool to great effect in combat? Yes, I agree.

Then why wasn't it ignored like everything else in early Avengers.
>>
>>84867466
Because Cap being so damn good at using the shield that he calculates the best way to throw it so it bounces back to him is more impressive than it just being drawn back magnetically
>>

Muhammad Ali Superman could have been cool. Will Smith Superman would have been shit.

>>84860839
This was a thing way back in Cap's earliest Avengers appearances. He received the magnetic gauntlet as a gift from Stark and later ditched it because he claimed it affected his groove with the shield.
>>
>>84860875

Yep. Pretty that much nails it, friend.

I like that for prototype web-shooters made out of watches, along with the puff of smoke, and the 'PFT' sound.

For the real web-shooters when he gets the money to make them, they should just be the classics with the THWIP
