Which Magneto feat is more impressive? Bridge or Stadium

Stadium.

Golden Gate weighs about 880,000k tons.

A baseball stadium weight around 310,000 tons

Stadium due to how easily he did it and because it looked cooler. He just landed nonchalantly and ripped it off the ground like nothing.

Come on CV, you love feats...

Considering that in DOFP he's much younger and did it effortlessly, it looked a lot cooler and more impressive.

But of course since the Golden Gate Bridge is actually much heavier, on feats/numbers it is more impressive.

Golden Gate Bridge is heavier, and I really don't think the stadium was done more casually than the bridge. They were both casual, but one was heavier than the other.

I say bridge.

@jedixman: He was also controlling about half a dozen sentinels while doing the stadium no?

Probably doesn't put it above bridge but worth nothing

Both feats are pretty spectacular regardless

Golden Gate Bridge

Bridge.

Was he? I thought he only "triggered them" afterward? It also seemed that his wiring really just "reprogrammed" them rather than taking direct control.

The bridge is more than double the stadium's weight. Gotta go with old Mags for this one

Bridge

Stadium was cooler.

Yeah, I also think it's the bridge.

On a side note, the fact that he's basically repeating this feat with the stadium shows how uncreative foX is with the powers. They have better stories, but their action is subpar compared to DCEU/MCU.

Stadium was badass

It was like him flying a castle for himself

The only similarity is that he's lifting something heavy.

It was done for different purposes and with different objects, sure, but regardless it was just a lifting feat of an incredibly large and heavy construction. It lacked originality in my opinion as I immediately was reminiscent of the Bridge feat when I saw the Satdium feat in the theater. I mean, cmon.

So Magneto should never lift heavy metal structures? Cause that's just stupid.

@kevd4wg:

lol let's have him lift them every single movie then, that would be smart I guess. What next, a building? Then a battleship maybe? Ah crap, basically happened with the submarine in First Class. Unique.

Ferrokinesis requires creativity, and for example, X2 plastic prison break was creative and awesome, that's where they showed they CAN do something original and unexpected. But hey, let's have him lift heavy objects ad infinitum, that will be genius right?

The Bridge.

@adamtrmm: His power is too lift metal, the stadium was completely different than the bridge and done in a different way. The only similarity is that he lifted a heavy structure, shit I guess the Hulk sucks cause he is almost always punching people.

@kevd4wg:

If you think there's a correlation between a brute showing and a elemental showing, there's nothing to discuss really. Hulk can punch, Hulk can lift, Hulk can shield, hell Hulk can use some martial arts if needed. A creative mind can figure out what to do even with such a limited power.

Before that, I just gave you an example of creativity, as opposed to repetitiveness, which I also exemplified, you still ignore the notions of it. I guess you don't like creativity. Well, I do, and I will continue to criticize what I consider uncreative, ok?

@adamtrmm: I just don't see how the two are similar in any fashion, I think it's ridiculous to expect Fox to only have Magneto lifting heavy things once in the entire trilogy especially since the lifting was used in different ways. Using the same powers to accomplish different task is creative imo. I was saying the difference between lifting the two structures is about the differences between different Hulk punches and to say that it is not creative to lift a heavy thing for Magneto is like saying it's uncreative to use punches for Hulk even if they are used in different and interesting ways.

@kevd4wg:

That's not just about the lifting, but about how central it was to Magneto's moments. It was that monumental showing off for the character, and it happening three times in a row is kind of tiresome. Again, ferrokinesis is the power, and it's much more versatile than just lifting heavy ferrous objects in the air (Hulk's prime power is being a brute, and well yeah, his thing IS to punch things, two different power sets right here). What about creating an armor or shields? What about reshaping metal on molecular level in more than just one way? What about weaponizing it tactically and surgically and not just throwing some metal debris? It can basically be Green Lantern level of crap, only with iron instead of hard light if done correctly, but as Singer himself admitted, he isn't good in action, and that was way too obvious. (that's a general statement, because I know the other liftings weren't filmed by him, still it's a shared universe)

@adamtrmm: He's done a bunch of different stuff throughout the movies so I don't understand why lifting heavy things can't still be a central part of his powerset. And I'm sorry, but creating armor on the molecular level with metal isn't as epic as lifting a bridge or a baseball stadium.

@kevd4wg:

To each their own I guess, to me Superman (as in cinematic adaptation imagery) was never epic until MoS. It's about cinematography, handling the scene and capturing the moments. You think so because you didn't really have an alternative I think. Which is also part of my complaint.

What was he supposed to do other than that? He is magneto, he lifts metal.

Do you expect him to rip iron out of a man's blood and use that little bit of iron to demolish high-security prisons? Or do you expect him to hack into super-advanced robots using metal wires?

I acknowledged the prison break as the pinnacle of their creativity, did you even read our conversation?

Regardless, I let the comics help me right here:

1. How about an armor?

2. Or maybe weaponizing liquid metal?

3. Maybe even weaponizing his own helmet?

4. Or frikking nails?

Should I go on? It's unbelievable that on comic nerd website I have to explain what power versatility really is... Wow.

@adamtrmm: TBH magneto is basically a green lantern/quasar level character with weaker constructs.

Anyways, I was joking, but I do not agree with you. I do believe that what magneto showed was good enough, and if anything more was shown it would've made him too OP (he kinda already is, but still)

@apex_pretador:

He rarely does constructs, but yeah having him full on EMS manipulator would be too unfoXy and make him too overpowered.

I caught it, and responded accordingly :p I mean, whole two unusual showings in like 6 movies with Mags?! Damn.

Then they should tone down the scope of his unfocused power and do more tactical and awesome. I'm reminded of the moment when in DoFP after QS broke him out of his glass prison, the second the guards detected them, what his response was? Yeah, simply lift all the metal objects available, which would've ended with them being shot to death if not for QS right there. I realize that was the intention, and Peter's moment to shine, but that was too out there with him and "lifting metal" in its most stupid imo. I'd like to see more because I know it could be amazing.

@adamtrmm:

He probably also did some heavy lifting in first class

Bridge

I was talking about:

1.Do you expect him to rip iron out of a man's blood and use that little bit of iron to demolish high-security prisons? 2. Or do you expect him to hack into super-advanced robots using metal wires?

And yes, he did, which I also already mentioned in the previous convo...

That was obvious sarcasm

@apex_pretador:

And I said it's still ain't enough.

Bridge. Heavier.

The bridge weighs MUCH more but the stadium was more fragile, so he had to move it all that way and control the frame well enough to keep it from collapsing in on itself ESPECIALLY when he set it down.

@adamtrmm: I always found kinda odd the Gillen´s UXM moment you posted.

Like, how can the helmet be put together again after being shattered in pieces?

I know it´s comics, but anyway...

@payneintheass:

It's called "control down to molecular level" ;)

Oh yeah, like he did Wolverine in Fattal Atractions right?

Makes sense.

Bridge.

Stadium.

@payneintheass:

It did until the point where Wolverine survived, though that was explained away with Jean's TK interference.
