It's pretty indisputable. If you want to skip to the results, just go to the 26th minute.

Also, for part 2...

Same result. (result breakdown starting at 11:30 minute mark)

Let the raging begin.

Pretty sure I read an article recently in which cate blanchett was asked about Thor ragnarok and she was very coy and evasive with her answer, similar to how Cumberbatch was before he was announced at dr strange. Not sure what role she would play, but would be another huge star in the MCU

Rumors getting stronger about Blanchett in Thor Ragnarok. Apparently Mark Ruffalo has let slip that she'll be playing a villain, with speculation that it'll be Hela.

And yes, before anyone asks, my knowledge of Hela comes from Wikipedia.

That's all well and good, but he is still overpowered.

[/b]The first and only being to kill him? Doomsday.

His only genuine weaknesses? Magic and kryptonite.

I'm not a fan of Superman, but it's mainly because...why should I care? He's an invincible being who could crush the world if he wanted to.

Other superheroes have genuine weaknesses.

I don't care about the subtext - how am I supposed to feel sympathy for Superman when he's invincible? He's never in serious danger.

"Oh, look - Lex Luthor has some kryptonite! How ever will Superman save the day? Through super speed, super strength, lasers, ice breath, going super saiyan..."

Urgh...pass.



Not sure what this has to do with anything. Does a character have to die to make them interesting?

If you are talking about someone who "can kill" Superman as opposed to "has killed" then thats a different story however you can add Darkseid, Mongul and even Parasite to the list. Hell, even Bizarro has the potential to end Superman

It's an opinion, and it's not an isolated view.

I'm not sure why you people get so pissy about it - I hate Superman. Deal with it, ffs.

If a superhero has every power under the sun - like, he can do almost everything - and is tougher to kill than Steven Seagal, then I find it difficult to connect with the character and feel genuinely concerned that he's in true danger.

Seriously - it's my opinion, and I've expressed it several times, and I thought we had moved on.

More power to you if you love him, but I can't stand him.

A lot of his fans talk about the psychological aspects to Superman, but imo he's not any more interesting than Kyle Rayner or even Arthur Joseph Curry.

Sure, being a being able to destroy a galaxy with a single sneeze, and choosing not to, is a difficult burden to carry.

But is Kal-El any more interesting, twisted or complex a character than other bug DC heroes? Imo, no.

Combined with his huge arsenal of powers and near-invulnerability, I just feel nothing towards him.

But - and I stress this again - it's my opinion. You don't agree. Fine. Whatever. You love Superman - that's cool.

But you need to realise that not everyone loves him, and that's OK.

Benedict Cumberbatch looks brilliant as Dr. Strange. Looks like a good flick.

That Dr Strange cast could go straight from the MCU set to the west-end to do A portait of a lady.

Oh and according to one of the Russo brothers they have 67 heros on their storyboard for the the Inifnity Wars.
