Maybe there are SHIELD fans regularly doing the same in Arrow threads though? I would be annoyed by that as well.

As a huge Arrow fan who still watches SHIELD, I can tell you that is definitely not happening.

The constant Arrow referencing is getting annoying though.
 
I'm not doubting that Arrow might be a better show, it probably is, but there does seem to be a need by some users to constantly post about Arrow in SHIELD threads. Hence my observation. It's some console wars level crap.

Also, dat Hulkbuster. Can't wait.

I'd say most SHIELD fans also watch Arrow and viceversa. I happen to prefer the Marvel universe; if I bitch about AoS is because I see a smaller show in a tiny network kicking Marvel/Disney's ass in pretty all fronts. I want AoS to be as good as Arrow, if not better.
 
What do they have to be threatened about? They are objectively the better show and almost pull equal ratings...on the CW

As someone who doesn't know what Arrow is, its probably the way some keep bringing it up in threads for the MU and the show.

I'd say most SHIELD fans also watch Arrow and viceversa.

I dunno, I haven't even really heard of it until people kept name dropping it. But if its on CW then that makes sense, I watch nothing on that network and never have.
 
I personally don't mind it, AoS is getting better. And.....

....Revenge will be sweet if those Netflix shows turn out awesome. :)
 
Quicksilver vs Quicksilver

No fucking contest. Singer should be ashamed.

HAHAHA singer is a fucking untalented moron.

It's not really "console war crap" to want the only other superhero show to live up to its own potential, which is what personally i always assume people are meaning when they bring up Arrow into SHIELD conversations.

The show squandered any leftover hype it gained post Avengers so fast it's not even funny.

Dat Hulkbuster indeed though. Also i like the Quicksilver concept. Manages to work in one of his modern costume and keep some white hair without him looking goofy as fuck like in Days of Singer Past.

So he fluked out 3 good movies whereas Whedon fluked out one (practically gift wrapped for him by marvel studios)

Lets not get carried away here

Edit: above post. Damn that sucks. Arrow is indeed better but it doesn't need to be said all the time
 
Brah do you go to AoS threads?

It. Already. Has.

Arrow fanboys going in and constantly going ARROW IS BETTER, ARROW IS BETTER!

Only a matter of time before the opposite happens.

Drive-by Arrow mentions are the least of that threads problems. It's mostly squabbling over bullshit. People are still going on about those two guards dying...
 
We never said yellow spandex brah.

...you need to enter in more X-Men Movie threads =P

Both in future past threads and in The Wolverine threads lots of people are like "WTF THAT TEASE" with the cut scene with the 3d printed mask and "we will never see the yellow spandex on movie =("

It really is.

Each time it happens, it makes me want to actually watch Arrow less. Maybe it shouldn't...

But it does.

It could be any of the costumes but Fox focuses on the yellow spandex costume, brah.

IF Fox would use any of the other costumes, Fans would be happy. THe teases are the reasons for it.

which 3?
 
Jon Favreau is Marvel Catering Guy. However, for comedic effect. he's played by Stan Lee.


god damn

Just remember Marvel fans that us DCers trudged through 10 seasons of you-know-what

Damn that wasn't 10 seasons was it?

I didn't know what the hell was going on in the end
 
You do realize the drive by attacks have gotten worse during the GOOD episodes right?

Hence the past couple episodes.

I can't say I noticed that. At all.

Maybe Loeb will get fired before any of the Netflix shows appear. I don't think i can handle him fucking up my bro Iron Fist.
I somewhat expect/hope Marvel to give a lot of freedom to Netflix so they can do something grittier than AoS. Loeb can go suck a lemon. If they ruin Jessica Jones I'll riot naked on the streets.
 
The hang-wringing about Arrow/AoS is prevalent in all other mediums as well. Any Batman/Superman film thread is littered with "loldcsucks not like MCU"
The nature of forums and the fanboys that peruse them
 
I participate in both the Arrow and AoS threads and am probably the most vocal defender of AoS in the AoS thread and I don't shit up the Arrow thread. There's no need to because aside from being Comic properties there's enough differences on the TV side of things that it's silly to make in-depth comparisons.

I've never understood the point in going into tv show threads just to trash the show though. Others want to get their opinions out regardless I guess.
 
So legitimate question, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch are Magneto's kids, right? But Marvel can't actually use Magneto in their movies, do you think they'll mention him or just avoid their origins altogether?

I think the entire thing with Fox makes it so they can't mention Magneto or mutants period.

They could be inhumans, although that was recently denied.

Is the High Evolutionary free to use by Marvel?
 
Now I'm confused. What do you mean by that? Just curious.
It arguably began with the Blade movies, but Singer's X-Men and Raimi's Spider-Man were successful enough to show that comic book movies could be insanely profitable.

It's no coincidence that X-Men and Spider-Man were also the leads for the Ultimate line, which was created to rewrite the characters for easier live-action adaptations. As we all know, the Ultimates eventually had a significant influence on the Avengers.

They went without being Magnetos kids for like 25 years in the comic books (their origin was added in much later) so they'll probably just go with the way they were back then.
