That’s stretching it a bit. It’s also unfair to compare the two as the marvel movies are mostly unrelated to each other. It’s not like there has been 3 great X-men movies or 3 great Avengers movies. Instead there has been 1 good one from each series and the rest were merely decent to blah.


Infinity War was as good as ESB.
The Avengers as good as SW:ANH

Winter Solider, GotG, IM, BP, Ragnarok, Civil War & Homecoming all better than Jedi.

I'll take the Avengers movies over X-Men movies a million times over. I'd argue that the worst Avengers film light years ahead 2/3 of the X Men films.

OKC took a risk trading for George but w/ Westbrook they always felt they had a chance to resign him so what they gave up (and everyone killed IND that night btw) was worth it. A terrible team trading a high pick w/ ZERO chance of extending Kawhi makes no sense. He wants LA.


Can the Lakers, for once in the last 20 years, let their young players develop?

You get Kawhi you probably get PG and maybe LeBron. Lonzo probably the only young Laker left.

Luke Walton gone within a year.

Book it.

Guardians 2 is the MCU film people will realize in about 2-3 years(when its on cable all the time) that is much better than given credit for. Easily one of Marvel's best and maybe better than the original.

You really want to compare Iron Man to The Dark Knight?



One launched a decade long empire.

The other launched a mediocre sequel.
The Batman fanboys dismissed Iron Man as a light movie while The Dark Knight was something with substance back in 08.

He should get respect.

He let a "friend" that is a guy live with him for eight years and didn't charge him rent, all the while catching hell from his wife (now ex-wife). I think he even let this guy stay in his bedroom on certain nights.

He even chose his friend (that is a guy) over his wife when the wife gave him an ultimatum. He should be respected.





You're talking about off the court stuff and implying a romantic relationship.

Does Tim Duncan get enough respect?

Foot in the door-challenged Shaq and the Lakers.
Foot out the door- challenged The Heatles.

Titles, MVPS, 50+ wins every season in between. advanced metric showing no real decline as he aged. Played on one leg the last 3-4 years of his career. Closest thing to Bill Russell since The Man Himself.

What is the point of his having superpowers?

Tony's suit does everything for him. I mean his tech can stick to walls. have super strength, speed, and agility.

It always bugged me that, by making his suit an iron suit, you basically neutralize what makes him Spider Man




"If you're nothing without this suit, then you shouldn't have it."

Kind of the point of Homecoming,yeah?

If the National Football League gradually declines, what sport will America turn to next?


Lacrosse as the South gets more into it. A Running Back type player (Bold prediction :lol: ) is going to dominate the sport, then you'll see that athlete (the type that used to be the NFL's bread & butter) gravitate towards that.

Soccer, Basketball and Baseball all benefit.

MMA/Boxing.

Hell.All sports.
