The biggest mistake with Black Adam was trying to make him bigger than the universe he was supposed to enter. His natural rivalry was with Shazam, a kid who gets his powers from the same magical source. That conflict practically writes itself. Instead, the movie pushed him toward Superman before he'd even built a meaningful place in the DC universe. Black Adam doesn't need to fight Superman to feel powerful. He needed a proper story with Shazam. They tried to make him the face of DC before giving him a reason to matter to DC.
Black Adam dropped 4 years ago today. The wildest reality about this film is how creative ego completely derailed two franchises. Instead of building toward the natural comic rivalry with Shazam, the production aggressively bypassed Billy Batson to force an unearned grudge match against Superman. What should have been a focused anti-hero debut ended up isolating Shazam 2, fracturing the continuity, and crashing the entire DC Extended Universe into an unavoidable studio reboot

Something doesn’t make sense to me… how did Tony’s nanotech respond to Thanos when it was designed around Tony’s own armor system?
Why could Thanos use the nano gauntlet, even though it was Tony's technology?

Is this actually a vibranium anti-feat, or are people confusing resistance to physical damage with resistance to chemical corrosion? Those aren’t the same thing.
How on earth did sulfuric acid cauterize Vision’s wound when his body is made of vibranium? Marvel keeps making vibranium look weaker than it's supposed to be.

Fun fact:; The reason Aang never wore traditional Water Tribe clothing is that much of it was made from animal-derived materials, which conflicted with the Air Nomads’ respect for all living beings. However, Aang eventually wore a Water Tribe outfit customized to resemble traditional Air Nomad clothing. Interestingly, Avatar Kuruk did something similar! When he trained with the Air Nomads, he wore blue Air Nomad robes instead of their traditional orange and yellow attire.

Something I don't understand about VisionQuest is why Vision thought he couldn't beat Jocasta 1v1, and why he had to give Ultron control He can run simulations in his head in seconds, yet he couldn't predict that Ultron would pull something so Ultron the moment he got control? and isn't FRIDAY supposed to have more battle experience? why wasn't that an option? was Ultron manipulations that good

Why didn’t Vision just phase through the Adamantium bullets Paladin shot at him?

In the comics, Lisa Molinari, aka Coat of Arms, uses a magical coat that grants her extra arms, flight, force fields, and the ability to conjure weapons. I wonder how much of her comic-book powers we’ll see in VisionQuest

Can someone explain to me like I’m 4 how Ymir inherited Marcel’s Jaw Titan and she didn’t look anything like him, while Armin became absolutely massive after inheriting the Colossal Titan?

Doom is jealous of Avengers🚨 I think Doom’s family was lost before any incursions, so he is not taking revenge for an incursion. He may discover that others are rewriting reality to reclaim or create the lives they want. Wanda’s reality-warping and Steve’s journey into the past could look like dangerous hypocrisy to him. Doom might create incursions to punish them and impose his own order on the multiverse. But beneath the lofty reasoning, grief, jealousy, and ego could be driving him. #AvengersDoomsday

Let’s be real: some people see Korra and Asami’s relationship as unnecessary woke propaganda. Others see it as the FUNNIEST way to humble Mako’s ego. Bro was such a terrible boyfriend that both his exes ended up getting together with each other. 😭💀🌚

Ever wondered why Slughorn never seemed to treat Snape like one of his favourite students, despite Snape being ridiculously talented? The funny thing is, Snape was a Slytherin with a brilliant mind. He invented his own spells, improved existing potions, and became incredibly skilled at magic while still a student. But in Half-Blood Prince, we see Slughorn’s old favourites like Lily Potter, who caught his attention with her talent for Potions. So was Snape simply overlooked, or did his personality and difficult background keep him from getting the recognition he deserved? The books give us a much deeper picture of the boy behind the cold, intimidating professor.

Thor threw Mjonr at the woman who conquered the Nine Realms with it first. ​Mjolnir was Hela’s hand-me-down gift to Thor. But technically, her Asgardian power was so overpowered that her grip strength exceeded the structural limit of Uru metal. That's why she squeezed it into chalk with one hand
How was Hela able to break Thor's hammer in Thor: Ragnarok?
