He's the arch-enemy of the Nice Guy.
Regular (616) and Ultimates (1610) are two totally separate universes. What you posted is canon for the Ultimate universe but not for mainstream Marvel- they're two different Hanks.

Reed Richards makes Rick and Morty look like amateurs.
Lol, had to google rick and morty. Doesn't Reed usually visit different dimensions though? Or is that the same thing in comics.
Wtf am I talking about I have Marvel Zombies hardback on my shelf right now lol! I should've thought harder before postin.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay wrong

Marvel does multiverses. The exiles series is nothing but hopping to different universes with casts from different multiverses.

Why do people still act like Pym was trying to beat up his wife? Even the writer of the comic it happened in said it was a miscommunication between him and the artist.
They probably made Ultimate Hank do it on purpose because it's a rule that everyone in that Universe is a dick.

Sadly, you are wrong. The Marvel Multiverse is a fucking mess.

After watching Prince Avalanche I'm not so convinced Wright will be able to get too much out of Rudd for the more dramatic moments. Then again, I wouldn't consider Nick Frost or Simon Pegg to be very well rounded actors and Wright has used them effectively.

how so?
How is it not? It may not be an issue that worries you, but it is quite a ridiculous situation with the demands of everything being consistent making a billion different universes just so they can claim everything is one distinct canon. It's... well... ridiculous. It is not a big problem or anything, but it is not elegant in any way. It is a mess.
They should have just ignored the idea of a set canon in the first place.
lets if anyone remember this
Since that is a living John Belushi, I doubt many gaffers will remember it
Hell, I was only 3 when it aired.

none of the multiverse issues effect anything. many ideas are made with the multiverse in mind. i dont see how there is a elegant way to do a multiverse, but with constant documentation, its far from a mess

GOAT comic book movie. Will finally dethrone raimi spidermans and nolan batman films.
If Wright/Cornish follow the trajectory of their career. Nobody's infallible.

I guess my point is that they should allow stories that are not part of the multiverse, just as stories. Having to tie everything in to one universal multiverse just feels like a literary crutch to appease people worried about different versions or takes on characters.
To me it is a mess. A documented mess, but a mess.

i dont see the mess aspect, i also dont see a reason not to have all the worlds share the same multiverse, but to each his own.
DS is a paper tiger.
DC problem is they tried to run so many side by side with the only superficial differences between characters.
They do have have stories that take place in their own universe all the time. They just label the universes in case they want to revisit.
Spiderman: Reign
Old Man Logan
Last Avengers Story
Space Opera Punisher
etc.
Ask and you shall receive...
Why not just use a real arrow and kill the bad guy? Or one of the gimmick arrows that these bow and arrow heroes always have?
It feels like Hawkeye just wanted to give Ant Man something to do.
This way they could grab the cosmic cube (or Tesseract, can't remember which it was in the cartoon) right away.

Yup, and where was [superhero] at the time?
Yep.
I see. I guess that makes sense.
Did I hit a nerve?

Hawkeye is one of those "no-kill" heroes.

The bad guy was also kinda off to the side. Maybe he wouldn't have been able to knock him out from his vantage point.

the cornetto trilogy is my favorite trilogy ever. they are equally tied as my number one fav movies ever, and I already love superhero movies so I can safely say this will probably be my favorite comic book movie yet (with guardians right after hopefukly)

Eh, it separates him from Natasha which I like. It came up in Secret Avengers and I liked how they handled it.
Clint's always been pretty firm in his convictions...maybe he'd make an exception for someone like Strucker though.

Yup, they sure did.
Regardless of how much it made it surely didn't make enough ... that's why Disney wanted to make more "boys" movies like WiR and I guess this Marvel kids movie we know nothing about coming out in Nov. Tangled, on the other hand, did so well that it changed their mind on the whole "no more Princess movies" thing ... and it made them take what they were boasting as their "proof that 2D at dead" and turn that into Frozen.
That shitty Frog movie almost killed Disney's interest in making Princess movies.
There's a huge, FAT different between "every console not doing as well as the gen before" and the Wii U which is basically doing Virtual Boy level bad. Wii U is doing so damn poorly that clearly Nintendo doesn't even know where to begin turning things around.
No, I don't think Wii U is just one more in a trend. This shit was such a mistake that Nintendo's reporting the first unprofitable quarters they have had in decades because of it. They have always managed to be atleast profitable for all consoles before now.

But what about Hawkguy?
I still wanna see Renner do a take on Hawkguy.
Though Hawkguy Clint doesn't seem too broken up about bad guys getting killed, save that moment he had to reassure Kate that he didn't shoot an asshole dictator in the face.

Should have been Jensen Ackles... but I think Renner could pull it off if they gave him something to work with.

Renner can act. You just gotta give him something to do first.
He could portray Fraction's Clint easily. Whedon's just gotta choose to adapt him.
NotTheGuyYouKill

Agreed.
Yeah, after seeing American Hustle I feel you but he's criminally underutilized.
And yet I managed to have quite a pleasant discussion about it. Subjective terms don't lead to agreement very often, as was the case here. If you feel like writing some words about how it isn't a mess, feel free, I will read them. Not really interested in going into a circular argument that will consist of 'no it isn't', 'yes it is' ad nauseum.

Edgar Wright is no longer directing Ant-Man.
The world has become just a little bit greyer.
Hype Levels are at blue.
