The DCEU's whole schtick is "what if superheroes existed in our world" as a way of being realistic. Despite this, does anyone feel the MCU has done this better and more realistically? I feel IRL our world be more like MCU and eventually adapt to the idea of having superheroes and treat them like celebrities. The whole idea of people worshiping and talking about Superman as a god after he's been public for two years just seems incredibly unrealistic and silly to me.

>does anyone feel the MCU has done this better and more realistically?
No, not at all. The accords would have come into play after Iron Man 1for example. Age of Ultron would have never taken place.
>>
>>86415640
Not really. Iron Man 2 touched on this. Stark was somehow able to get the government off his back and declare the Iron Man armor as private property.
>>
>>86415697
>Iron Man 2 touched on this.
Iron Man 2 was a piece of shit. I wouldn't cite it as a good reason for anythnig.
-paliduim poisoning because alcohol is too dark for the kiddos

The weakest part of Civil War was when it tried to engage with any real-world issues though. In the "real" world Iron Man is literally 100% right and only though the lens of a comic book universe can it be a 50/50 even split argument.

Not that the DCEU is doing it any better, what with Snyder aping the talking heads bit from Dark Knight Returns without understanding that those parts were satire.
>>
>>86416991
The talking heads had a completely different points in Bvs then they did in TDKR.
In returns it's all political people preaching their point of view.
In Bvs it's unbiased people asking valid questions that would be asked in the real world if this happened.
>>
>>86415735
It still happened anon

Also alcohol poisoning only happens to extreme addicts and would have made Stark look extremely pathetic and stupid for having let it get that far, the paladium was contrived but it worked for the tragedy angle

actually that is very realistic
Most modern major catastrophes such as the huge Typhoon Roke which lay waste to Japan in 2011 only killed 13 people total even with the $100,000,000+ in damages done to the country.

A hundred killed in what was basically a half hour invasion sounds spot on for irl.

The nation didn't see it coming and it lasted days and destroyed/flooded the country for months only calming 13 lives

You find an invasion ambush on a single city which lasted less then an hour and was stop cold by an advance team that was ready before the invasion started with the only aftermath being clean up unrealistic for a 100 lives claimed?
>>
>>86417389
The ensuing chaos wouldve sparked armed violence that wouldve easily claimed more than 100 lives even if the aliens didnt manage to kill anybody

Are you saying a three day hurricane that took out power and destroyed whole cites wouldn't lead to armed violence? Also you seriously underestimate 1st world police and military operations of shutting down riots. The worse I can thing of is that one that was about eight years ago in the UK and it was less then 20 people that died to that and it took them almost a week to bring order back.

Bigger question:
Why do we have people with a retarded mindset that major wars and disasters always need a huge civilian body count to be "realistic"? It takes very little relative time to organize and evacuate an area free of civilians even when under fire. So why do they need these sensationalized death counts of non combatants?
>>
>>86417389
>was stop cold by an advance team
And this is the bullshit part. The entire fucking invasion targeted one fucking city? And couldn't even fucking knock down some building? The sandniggers did better.
>>86418022
You're talking to someone new now, I'm the guy you originally responded to. My point is that the "invasion" was a fucking joke. Bin Laden was more effective. An entire invasion force got stopped by six guys, two of whom are fucking useless, Clint and Natasha, and were "contained" by Cap apparently using his magic plot skills to make reality bend to his orders.

Iron Man is shutting fucking lasers all over, Hulk is running around but apparently not one building falls over.

Because we're dealing with a genocidal robot? Why doesn't Ultron just send some drones all over to target civilians and force the Avengers to split up?

Look I get it, capeshit is for kids. But we're talking about whether the MCU is realistic or not. And it isn't.

They did 18 billion in damages to the city, it's in the same screen we get the death count. Also you forget, it was a half hour blitz, this isn't like Ultron that prep timed the whole event and lifted a city causing 400 billion in damages

>An entire invasion force got stopped by six guys
four of those guys have taken on and destroyed entire armies with little or no support, they are all united now taking on RC flesh bots that had a kill switch.
>Bin Laden was more effective.
well they didn't see him coming. Tony out right talks to Loki before the invasion stars, they had a lot more inlet and pre-time.

Yah maybe I just watched BVS and they constantly remind you its fantasy with stuff like "Gotham" and "metroplis". Those are supposed to be real world type places but they seem fake and break the fantasy.

Marvel on the other hand has stuff that like Asgard which is100% fantasy and his referred to as such. Like even the people in the MCU don't know or believe in it.

Isn't that supposed to be Marvel's schtick? I find it weird how the MCU is family friendly while the DCEU is grumpy teenage stuff. I have never gotten into Marvel much but I always heard it was the opposite. DC comics is old fashioned and comparatively fluffy. Its characters are people you want to be and people you idolize, it has all the comfy characters like Superman or Wonder Woman. Marvel however is the more 'modern' and realistic. They deal with racism, sexism, etc more often, deal with more PG-13 and mature topics. They're characters are relatable or people you don't wanna be.

I hate this whole realistic angle that the New 52 and DCEU push. No one wants to see people hate Superman or treat him like a god. No one wants to see the government try to dissect Superman. We want the happy go lucky universe where people idolize him and think he's cool like in the 70s film or Lois and Clark.
>>
>>86419034
No I agree it's weird as fuck that they are flipped in theaters
For the longest time in the general themes Marvel's capes was always grim while DC was inspirational stuff
I'm guessing it's more of the film studios where WB wants dark as edge lord black where Disney wants everything to be wholesome, even nazis
>>
>>86415622
The DCEU's whole schtick is "what if superheroes were total retards".
>>
>>86419034
That's what normies think because Marvel has always marketed itself as being "hip". The truth s Marvel is usually behind diversity-wise DC but DC does it quietly while Mavel makes a huge fucking deal of it.
>>
>>86419087

I don't honestly believe it but I do think it has some merit. DC always came off as less realistic and gritty than Marvel to me. That's why they attract different audiences.

I do, and is nothing new, also you are a retard, in the donner's movies Superman was literally god and there was no need for another god.
>>
>>86415622
>Despite this, does anyone feel the MCU has done this better and more realistically?
Weaker heroes isn't the same as realism.

>I feel IRL our world be more like MCU and eventually adapt to the idea of having superheroes and treat them like celebrities.
Superman was a celebrity. Some people just didn't like him, or liked him too much.

>The whole idea of people worshiping and talking about Superman as a god after he's been public for two years just seems incredibly unrealistic and silly to me.
Why? He's stronger than most of the gods in history.
>>
>>86419299
DCEU is awesome and Superman is a great person there? A good argument can be made about him being better than DCAU's
>>
>>86415964
Yeah actually because that's funny. Unlike Avengers which actually showed tons of people in the city. At least they didn't have to lie about it after the fact.
>>
>>86415912
They're just better at saving people
>>
>>86419390
I'm from Chile, i had lived five 7.0 earthquakes, 2 of those over 8.0 in the last 5 and a half years. And I know that in a world where superman lives NO ONE WOULD PREY TO GOD if they knew Superman is around. That's the impact Superman would have, he can save you and in their universe he already saved the world once. His existence does change everything, even when at his core he is only a good guy doing good thing, he is a god by all definitions aside from his lack of divinity.
>>
>>86419504
Doomsday attack had 1 confirmed death (Clark Kent) so that means Batman is the most efficient superhero of all time currently, since he had the plan to bring the big guy to an unpopulated area.

>>86419082
Butthurt to the max.
>>
>>86419550
>so that means Batman is the most efficient superhero of all time currently

Well, he is one of the WORLD's finest.

Why people forget that Batman is the second best hero of his planet?
>>
>>86419518
Add in the fact that he actually stopped earthquakes and a supervirus that could have killed all of humanity from being let loose, the arguments for him not being treated as a god get weaker and weaker. (These are from Wally's newspapers at his apartment).
>>
>>86419089

That's just a meme perpetuated by kiddies who weren't alive in the 90s.

>>86419602
Yeah, this part is CRUCIAL to BvS because, without Superman, Batman was the greatest hero. Lots of people don't get this. He was at the very top, number 1. No one in the world was better than him, and his only loss came from Joker killing Robin. Of course, he got revenge and put him in Arkham afterwards. Superman coming in and completely blowing him out of the water becomes an even bigger attack on his ego.

Imagine that you're the best Olympic athlete, winning the gold medal in every event for 20 years in a row. Then this other guy shows up out of nowhere and is 10 times better than you at everything. Amplify that by a million and you get Bruce's feelings.
