You can fire your arrows from the Tower of Babil

Come on man.

How is Babil formed?

>more biblical references in comic book movies

*babilcal references

Wasn't the whole point of Babel that if they finished it they could have struck God?

>Babil

that's a highly mythologized version of the already pretty ridiculous myth

the original story of babel was that it was simply an act of hubris, that humans could create something even grander than what god could create. Not necessarily that it could reach god himself.

No, it's that they tried to reach heaven/God by mortal means.
It's not whether they could or not, it's that they tried.
God is big on intent

Always thought it read a bit weird.

Like God smiting humanity because they're threatening his ego.

God is a sadistic ego-maniacal lunatic. If you do something he doesn't like he sends you into his fiery torture chamber to suffer for all eternity.

Pretty much yeah.
In the story humans are basically like "hey look how great we can be when working together!" and God is like "if they realize how great they are they'll stop fearing me".
So he fucked up the whole thing.

>Bible references about a guy named Apocalypse

Gee who would have thunk

I swear, people have been aimlessly trying to outdo the great quote from James Weldon Johnson for decade. it always comes off stilted and forced.

Cartoon Apocalypse had better quotes
>I am the rock of the eternal shore, crash against me and be broken!
>Beast, how many people envisioned my end? You are no closer than the Babylonians with their swords and fire sticks HAHAHAHA!
>There is no freedom from me, there is only freedom through me

How is Babil formed? How brick get baked?

>Supermemes
>I was betrayed FOR THIS?

It's that they tried to elevate themselves to God. God had to put them in their place.

The best

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T

Knowing a German word doesn't make you smart, Sup Forums.

It was mediocre.

But you can fire arrows from the tower of babel and strike Magneto's daughter

Old testament God is a dick. I still think he's an immoral, alien space god of order that decided "Fuck it" and came here.

>whoops! let go of the string!

This was my favourite capescene this year.

I really like when Apocalypse is seeing all these bankers and makes a disgusted face.

I know it's your opinion but you're still wrong.

At least you don't hide the fact that you're retarded

Saw that coming from a hundred miles away

>this really tall tower will surely be grander than the entire world and everything in it

>Apcolypse using one of the most top tier teams in Marvel vs Capcom 2 (mags, storm, psylocke)
>gets rekt by Phoenix

git Gus Apoc

CURLEH MUSTACHE

He was that perfect mix of silly/camp with gravitas that the X-Men cartoon nailed so perfectly with the voice work

Angel's Talons on his organic wings were a really nice touch. Way to communicate he's more than just feathers.

Shut up mugga, do you go round talking bout arrows next to Mags.

I wonder how Magneto copes with the Loss

Speaking of, he ruined the whole fucking moment by yelling at the sky.

>"IS THES WAT YOU WANT FROM MEEEEEH?!!?1!"

Took me right back to 2007 Sup Forums for how exagerated and cliche'd it was.

Magneto is one melodramatic bitch, ain't he?
It's all his fault, he shouldn't tell his daughter stories about how his family was taken away from him.

The movie was all over the place, tonally.

The Quicksilver scene, although cool, was jarring as fuck.

I expected him to struggle deciding which ones to save and not being really able to cope with being fast enough.

But no, he went dancing with Moira and playing darts instead.

Quicksilver is immature, after all he is a neet.
Albeit a cool bro. He's like Bud Bundy, but with powers.

God was a real bastard before he had a kid. It really mellowed him out.

I said YOUNG MAN! Pick yourself off the ground!

>I expected him to struggle deciding which ones to save and being unable to cope with NOT being fast enough.
is what I meant to write. I managed to fuck that up.


Yeah, I get that, but it would've been nice to at least put him in that position, if only to disregard it like they usually do. At least it wouldn't have been so jarring.

Show me your warface

The tone was all over the goddamn place. What emotion is Apocalypse decapitating people with sand supposed to envoke? Fear? Laughter? Some combination of both? That seems highly inappropriate.

And accidentally Magneto's family. That was just fucking silly.

God, Apocalypse was underwhelming.

I'll take old testament references put in for ham over new testament references put in for pretension any day of the week.
