It seems to happen extra with women. Like the filmmakers of Civil War have hyped how powerful Scarlet Witch is in interviews (when based on what we've seen on screen, we'd think she's powerful but not that powerful). Jean Grey too.

There's an assumption that we'll always assume women are weaker, so they have to hype how strong they are and then they wind up being The Most Powerful Person In the Universe.

For Carol though I think the hype could work if only because the character who should be their Superman, Thor, doesn't have a strong enough actor to sell it. If you told me Carol was their Superman I might believe it if only because I can't believe it of Hemsworth.

From that video:

#10 was I am Legend for the CGI on the Darkseekers
#9 was the trolls and Voldemort's second head from the first Harry Potter movie
#8 Star Wars ROTJ Special Edition because Jabba's size change retroactively fucks up how Han is looking at him.
#7 is Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull for its CGI problems
#6 is Matrix Reloaded for lack of gravity in Neo vs Agent Smith fights
#5 is SW Phantom Menace for Jar Jar
#4 is 300 for the Leonidas and the wolf scene
#3 is GOTG because he thinks they messed up Thanos
#2 is Suicide Squad because of Croc and El Diablo
#1 is Batman V Superman because of Doomsday

Are you talking about that thing in JL about WW not really having an exploitable super-weakness?
>>
>>87123018
she has a vagina and not many of the characters from the MCU w/ vaginas have their own movie hence she will be strongest because GIRL POWER.

God, /pol/ really is right when it comes to this shit. I really hope this SJW/feminist shit dyes down before it consumes the majority of western society. It'd be a nightmare having to interact with people who actually think this way and are actively sexist and racist without knowing it and project that onto other people.

I'm not sure why you people care about power levels so much, what matters is how well a character is written.

Of course what I say will just fall on deaf ears of course.
>>
>>87124210
Power levels are inherently tied to quality of writing. If you make a character that's the strongest ever made, like Stardust for example, how do you give them any interesting challenges?

WW's top power is equal to Superman's baseline and since he'd never fight her (or pretty much anyone other than Doomsday) at his fullest, they're equals.
Once upon a time Martian Manhunter was stronger than WW's best and Superman's average but she doesn't matter anymore. Shazam was also up there along Captain Atom for the DC top 5 heroic powerhouse.
Nowadays preptime, speedforce and GL esoterism have taken over all the best feats tho.

Thank you for actually knowing what you're talking about before spouting off like most dipshits in this thread.

Really it's easier to just say "Superman-level" to refer to the strength of Diana, J'onn, Captains Marvel and Atom, Supergirl and Power Girl, and so on because calculating PRECISELY how much stronger they are than each other is retarded and pointless.

I mean since when does a fist fight actually come down to which of the two can bench fifteen pounds more than the other?

I will concede that she is the superior fighter. She was raised by Amazons and was obviously trained in old school melee combat. However she does not have the same power set and is not stronger than him. If Superman legitimately wanted to hurt/incapacitate/kill her it would be over a second.

Oh great the whining MRAs have come out. If you knew anything about Carol, they meant she's the most powerful in the things she can do. That doesn't mean she's stronger than the hulk or a better fighter than Cap. It just means she's most likely gonna be their Martain Manhunter.

No, it's just going to be kinda nice to just have a female character do something else besides kung-fu. (Sorry Black Widow, Gamorra, etc) and not some strange psychic power (Sorry Scarlett Witch). I just want to see her legitimately kick some ass. So yeah, build her up some, but don't forget the other hero's so everyone gets to shine.

I'm sure she'll have her "spider-man' moment. Which is fine by me.

When did Captain Marvel suddenly become a Mary Sue. I know Marvel is trying to push her to be their Wonder Woman but come the fuck on. A good female character, any character for that matter, is not good because of their strength and power, but because of good writing.

We have not seen how powerful Scarlet Witch is yet. That comes in Infinity War, and Feige's use of the word "chaotic" combined with the DarkHold being present raises some interesting possibilities.

But being most powerful is a poisoned chalice for female characters, who are often portrayed as not being able to handle power, whereas their male counterparts tend to mygeniuses.

How bigoted. Just because she's a woman doesn't mean she has a vagina. This is 2016 and realism is a reactionary concept by GGers/Alt-right man-babies. I hope you realise you're on the wrong side of history here, buddy.

WW vs Supes is always in flux, I would say she has decent chance against him overall.

that should have just been a screen droid so Han was talking shit to Jabba through video chat / facetime instead of having Jabba there in person. No need for the height change, no need for the awkward "Han stepping on Jabba's tail" bullshit, it would have just been Han being a telephone tough guy.

In terms of raw strength they're about equal in most cases (again, powerlevels fluctuate depending on whose comic you're reading)
In terms of fighting technique she's definitely on top since she's been trained in fighting for a good part of her life
She also has access to magical weapons which Superman has no heightened resistance to but Superman has a shit ton of things stashed in his fortress of solitude he's picked up over the years which is probably just as deadly for Diane.
Superman also has other powers on top of strength and flight like good old heat vision which can become decisive factors in a brawl

Basically the planet would get fucked if both tried to fight each other with all intents to kill.

>#6 is Matrix Reloaded for lack of gravity in Neo vs Agent Smith fights

It's literally a simulation. And hell, you complain about that you're basically complaining about most kung-fu films that involve wire stunts.

>>
>>87126877
I agree with you for the most part anyway, but... as a long term WW fan I've always hated her weakness to sharp weapons. This means that anyone with a gun or knife could possibly kill her, no matter how improbable. I think they need to finally alter or remove that weakness because it's just a stupid flaw to have here in the modern day of comics. You could always just write in some kind of weapon to hurt anybody including her. But that weakness to sharp weapons really would eventually kill her at some point.

Superman could punch her through a building and just by sheer luck she could land on a sharp piece of metal and be rendered dead. Or what if someone just shot her from a sniper position while she was fighting henchmen. It's really broken how easily you could just kill her with a little planning. It sucks, I know.

Carol is a planetcracker. That's something that comes with being Cosmic-tier any decent Captain Marvel should be. With the generally lower power levels of the MCU that makes her a contender for strongest hero. Strange is up there too, but is gimped a bit by not being Sorcerer Supreme yet since it's an origin.

I mean, it's not like she has much competition in the MCU. Thor got nerfed to shit and Hulk is just physically strong, Vision is really her only match. Are they counting villains? Cause Thanos probably has her beat even without the Gauntlet. Power levels are fucking retarded anyway.

>>87126519
Being "the best at everything" is not the reason why female heroes seldom gain a true fandom because they can't deal with power, but actually because they deal way too well with power.

Heroes are measured by their hardships and sacrifices. If they don't lose fairly they don't grow or show any true progression, if they don't show any progression they're static, if they're static they're not something you want to follow because it thrills you to know what could happen next to your beloved and fragile character.

A lot of this is actually WB beating marvel to announcements, that are generally coincidental anyway. Marvel had a big even planned in october 2014 and WB made announcements prior. The Wonder Woman Trailer and the Carol casting were both at comic con, one easily could have happened before the other, neither was a response to the other, they were both planned and happening.
