And strangely enough we always find the same person who constantly argue and who becomes more and more unbearable.
I give it a 5. I was watching the previous Cap movies over the weekend, and this doesn't even measure up to those movies.
That got me as well. I don't recall him looking so frail in Indy and that wasn't filmed far apart I dont think.
They were a year apart. Ford didn’t work out.
Mail that guy some T!!
I dont go to theatres much anymore, but I'll fully admit the snack bar food is usually pretty good. Totally overpriced, but the dogs, popcorn and pump your own butter jugs can sometimes be better than the movie!
I cannot actually believe you place Eternals above....any move in any series....EVER.
Yes and no, there's a bit of suspension of disbelief needed even for the iron man suit, just because you have a layer of metal around you, doesn't mean kinetic energy impacting it just stops, it will go through it and turn you into mush.
See, in these two scenes the directors make sure to try to maintain suspension of disbelief but A. showing that Thors strike is at least partially non-kinetic energy, and B. Cap goes through a window that (sorta) slows him. Obviously neither of these things would really matter, hell, a 15 pound sledgehammer swung by a 230 pound guy hitting a metal shield would likely still break the arm of the shieldwearer, no Asgardian magic necessary. Buuuut, it helps the viewer to BELIEVE, and keeps some sense of internal consistency that Cap can do SOME wonderful things but not just casually brush off EVERYTHING.Enter vibranium, this fantastical material is wholly an inertial damper by itself, and an extremely effective one at that. There's a scene in civil war or black panther that shows this where black panther gets shot by regular caliber bullets, and instead of bouncing or ricocheting they drop straight down having lost all kinetic energy on impact.
And remember this?:
Instead of turning cap into paste, or at the very least pulverised his arm, all the energy was dispersed at the point of impact instead of heading forward, causing the blowback leveling the surrounding area.
Or this:
Instead of breaking every bone in his body and possibly dying on the spot, the vibranium made it a minor inconvenience, remember he casually takes down a quinjet with all kinds of flips right after this.
It's not infinite, which is why the wings were violently shaking and fully charged after a single punch from red hulk and sam was pushed back, if it was infinite sam wouldn't even move no matter what, but aside from that vibranium itself doesn't absorb energy, it disperses it, the absorption happens after the dispersion and is secondary tech Shuri invented, the first black panther suit we see didn't have it either.
There are a few liberties that are taken just for getting a nice action set piece, steve also gets tossed around a couple times in winter soldier and avengers even though the shield should prevent that and has shown to prevent that on other occasions, heck when steve fights thanos in endgame there's a scene where he throws mjolnir at the shield behind thanos, and the impact has such blowback that all the kinetic energy hits thanos and makes him stumble and drop his weapon, and then moves in the opposite direction perfectly back to steve.
IIRC at some point they have a magnetic "Recall" function for the shield, right? Obviously more comic book tech but I think some of the shield tricks later in the series are using that capability.It's not infinite, which is why the wings were violently shaking and fully charged after a single punch from red hulk and sam was pushed back, if it was infinite sam wouldn't even move no matter what, but aside from that vibranium itself doesn't absorb energy, it disperses it, the absorption happens after the dispersion and is secondary tech Shuri invented, the first black panther suit we see didn't have it either.
And as shown prior Thor's swing, which is far above "bullets" as well, did nothing to steve, instead it destroyed the area around him. Sam has that shield and the wings, he basically has 3 shields for energy dispersion/absorption.

He has this in Civil war I believe, but then he loses the shield and tech, I don't believe he has it in endgame.
I forget which one has Steve cinching the shield straps tighter over his broken arm but for most of the later films he just kind of snaps the shield on and off as needed. BNW def has a scene where Sam kicks it up to his arm and 'holds' it somehow and another scene where it sort of just pops up and snaps to his arm, so whether "the lore", such as it is for that film, has that specific tool (makes sense it would be there, it's already been developed and is handy) the FX guys are showing it working in that fashion.

that the shield feels so superfluous for Sam with all his gear (seems like he can just ALWAYS have the wings and suit as it just materialized around him as needed) that it just seems odd that "passing the shield" is some sort of requirement. It would be like some Air Force flying ace having to use a P-51 instead of Sabres, Phantoms, Falcons, or Raptors just because its the WW2 era P-51 that the american public recognized. Sam is waaaaaay past needing the shield with his tech.
I haven’t seen the marvels either, outside of black widow being a sort of dead end for the character, I found it watchable.

Joke is on us as apparently some of the worst shots were shot on a set but with just brutal lighting / grading afterwards… sigh..
all hulk references in this movie point to incredible hulk iirc.
