I'm actually disappointed we haven't seen any of the characters stronger than Thanos, but I understand why they're doing it this way. They tried to put Galactus on the big screen and it was just a total disaster. Dormammu is stronger than Thanos (when he doesn't have the Infinity Gauntlet in its entirety). Technically, no one except the One Above All can overcome the Infinity Gauntlet in any situation. Thanos himself, however, would definitely come in under Dormammu and probably Hela/Surtur. Galactus would be another, as you mentioned. Mephisto is a difficult character to quantify but generally speaking in stories like Earth X, he's regarded as a bigger threat than Thanos even on the raw power side of things. Of course, Dr. Strange could have introduced Eternity at some point but sadly that hasn't happened. And we've never seen Quasar or Adam Warlock, both of whom also float around on Thanos levels. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer <cite>scarletspeed7 posted [p:900573013] in Avengers s...

Buddy, I don't know how to even reason with this. It's a fantastic, fondly-regarded ending to a story that is considered one of Marvel's all-time greats. It fits the character perfectly and it encapsulates Thanos' greatest weaknesses and also his relationship with Nebula. In fact, it would play perfectly in the movies - they have built it over the course of the Guardians' films. I know you're not a comic guy, but if you haven't read it, you can't comment. Beating literal BIG G "God" who is omnipresent and omniscient because he "ignored" someone is the stupidest ending ever.... I didn't say the story itself wasn't fine. The ending is so so so god damn fucking abysmal. --- Tom Bombadil: "you are probably the king of b8 dragonball fans at least!" <cite>EmDubyaSee posted [p:900573018] in Avengers s...

I didn't say the story itself wasn't fine. The ending is so so so god damn fucking abysmal. That's the point. Thanos has unbridled levels of arrogance. The story is a classic one; he is toppled by an insect, someone who he has kicked around, tortured, betrayed, treated like utter shit. The moment comes when, had he been a decent person at any point, Nebula could have allowed Thanos to win, but Thanos' own disgusting treatment of Nebula is coupled with his inability to foresee someone so inconsequential defeating him. Think of the Gauntlet as a title and think of Nebula as cashing in Money in the Bank when Thanos isn't paying attention. You aren't seeing the underlying story at play there.

Arrogance be damned, they would be on your mind constantly as you see everything. You really don't get that he legitimately doesn't have any regard for Nebula and Gamora. He in fact does subconsciously ignore them. In the comics, he only has one desire, one ambition. Everything else is completely and utterly trivial to him. The point is that omniscience in his hands doesn't mean anything because he reminds blinded by his own arrogance and his ambition. And, lest we forget, he is growing into his understanding of the powers he commands. He still has yet to tap the full measure of the Gems before Nebula geeks him. I know you live in DBZ world where there can be no subtlety or nuance, but that's what you are getting here. If you follow it up with Infinity War, you'd understand that the journey of Thanos requires this poignant and pivotal moment. It's a catalyst for understanding and change. Thanos cannot be all-powerful because he thinks so small. The man snapped his fingers and killed half the Marvel Universe. Now think about that for a moment. Let it set in.

It's the dumbest ending to anything in all of fiction.</quote> What happens?</quote> GOD (no exaggeration there either... all the powers that go with it) gets beaten by a half dead barely functioning zombie.... that he's known a lot of life....</quote> Not accurate. "God" has someone simply take the Gauntlet off of his hand.</quote> Are you going to pretend that if someone took away your infinite power and made you just a strong Semi mortal again that's not being beaten?</quote> There's a difference between a fight to the death "beaten" and just being gamed because you arrogantly assume that you have nothing to worry about from some puny mortal. "What can she possibly do?" Well, she can walk right up to you if you aren't going to take her seriously.</quote> I didn't say she killed or knocked out GOD, I said she beat GOD..</quote> ...

skullbone 04/30/18 4:41:00 PM #79:	Sounds like someone is using the Iceman argument here! Yeah he's an omega level mutant but he really ISN'T because he'll never actually utilize his powers to that full potential. Thanos has GOD powers but he'll never realize them to the full potential because he doesn't have enough imagination to actually do that. --- skull <cite>skullbone posted [p:900578458] in Avengers s...
