Of course not. Mantis isn't some pale(yes I know what she originally looked like) personification of autism

Of course not. Mantis isn't some pale(yes I know what she originally looked like) personification of autism.

Fuck Gunn for ruining Marvel Cosmic.

>literally "not muh"

Gunn imroved her.

>Fuck Gunn for ruining Marvel Cosmic.

Gunn is Marvel Cosmic.

Oh look the shills have arrived.

so did you like guardians before the first movie or did you just jump on the bandwagon and now is going off on anything related to the movie cuz your want to look good in front of the other 7 people who liked guardians before the movie?

>T...
>THIS IS NOT MY NOTASIANEXOTIC WAIFU
>YOU BASTARDS YOU TOOK THE CHARACTER I SOLD INTO BONDAGE AND WHOREDOM AND MADE HER NOT MY WAIFU

He is right. She is nothing like Mantis.

Post some Mantis pics from the movie please. The one with her and Drax laughing and the one where her face looking shocked.

>what MCU fans think

Have you idiots ever read a comic or do you just parrot shit off of Sup Forums?

He stated an objective fact you stupid shill. MCU Mantis has little in common with 616 Mantis.

Love what a loser who wrote this

>>THIS IS NOT MY NOTASIANEXOTIC WAIFU

BRAVO MARVEL

Foolish man! Now Marvel has a reason not to pay you royalties!

They should have kept her green.
I know why they didn't, that would take away from Gamora's screen presence, but I still think she should have stayed a different color.

Most people that watch marvel movies don't read comics, so why bother?

Not him, but I liked that one run of the characters and I thought that the first Origin of Starlord was pretty interesting as well. Puts him much closer to the likes of Beta Ray Bill than to the underdog with sufficient firepower he currently is.

>massively successful

>space autist laughing.jpg

its okay to admit it user i was just like you loved the first movie and then got into the comic

I can comfortably say I've read more comics than you.

>I enjoyed my night at the movies so long as I turned my brain off
The MCU in a nutshell.

Pics or gtfo.

No I'm not a paid shill

>reading marvel

>Marvel shills
>getting paid
>ever
Well, duh.

>That's not the Vietnamese whore I created.

Englehart was a mistake.

i understand its awkward at first doing this type of stuff but its like working telemarketing after a while it gets easier

>falling for memes

He's right, she's very different from comic Mantis.

But there's nothing wrong with that, he even says he enjoyed the movie and it's version of Mantis overall.

Though if anyone has a right to feel salty over a not muh, it's a creator. Can't fault him for that.

>implying

>turned my brain off

People who say this, do this, or request this from others deserve to be shot.

So she was originally the same bitchy hyper-competent smartass as all the other characters?

No wonder they changed her for the movie.

No Shit. All of the Guardians are just retarded meme machines in the MCU.

A-Anyone?

I agree with Steve. I liked it but I had to suppress my not muh pretty hard.

>if anyone has a right to feel salty over a not muh, it's a creator
This. If the author of the original work is happy, then the adaptation is a success; fuck critics and fuck box office.

Based Marvel, always respecting their characters. Not like smelly DC amirite Marvelbros?

Not. Yet.

Now I want to know what he thinks about DCEU Deadshot; it was he and Marshall Rogers that brought him back, after all.

Here you go user

Very mature response. Doesn't just mindlessly repeat the narrative that MCU has portrayals that are true to the the comic versions but also doesn't senselessly insult the movie just because the character is different there. A completely reasonable thing to say.

He's not wrong, but that doesn't mean that being different from the source = automatically a bad thing.

Just look at MCU Yondu. He's even more of a departure from comics Yondu than Mantis is, and was so much better for it.

Ostrander liked Suicide Squad.

If movies based on children's comical booklets take effort for your brain to process, you might want to consult professional help.

He did. And so SS is a good movie.

I think he means it's like going back to IE after using a real browser.

Yeah, why can't they be completely serious like the comics?

Oh get over it Steve, your waifu is too convoluted to portray correctly.

>one panel out of many many non-quipping ones

Whats with the DCshilling? Wonder Woman not good enough?

>>THIS IS NOT MY NOTASIANEXOTIC WAIFU

We need the seriousness from this that is lacking in the movies

In all fairness, Mantis was basically garbage as a character until DnA got a hold of her.

>That version of the character was a human who would later ascend to cosmic awareness and become the "Celestial Madonna," the mother of a child who was prophesied to be "the most important being in the universe." Along the way, she would be trained as a martial artist, and serve as a member of both the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy, showing an anger and capability that is, indeed, very different from Pom Klementieff's onscreen version.
So...she was a shitty Mary-sue, and any changes to that original premise is better by default

>b-but the comics are LELSORANDUMB too!
Grow up and get a real job, shill.

>DAMAGE CONTROL PROTOCOLS: ACTIVATED

I just wish we could have scenes as serious as this in the movies

What the hell is with all this shitposting?

I really like Mantis from the comics, but did anyone really expect Gunn to try and explain her entire Celestial Madonna bullshit? Her origin is super convoluted.

My biggest disappointment was that she didn't seem to have any telepathy or precognitive skills, but I enjoyed the movie and character enough to not let it bother me that much.

It's an alternate universe, so yeah she is barely Mantis. Still very enjiyable and adorable. It's not like Gunn hasn't completely altered all the guardians of the galaxy and villains already. MCU cosmic marvel has almost nothing to do with Annihilation and those stories. But what he's done is enjoyable.

I'm with Englhart. I really like the movies but they aren't muh guardians.

This. That's always been the strength of the MCU: they take characters that might be dumb or unlikable and make them better.

You know, it's amazing how comic Rocket has been such an irredeemable asshole that they still put up with him. Yes, GOTG2 touched upon this, but Bendis made it sound like Rocket would shoot up a school cause kids were easy targets.

Didn't the characterization of Quill and Drax clue him in that this would be happening?

Also
>would later ascend to cosmic awareness and become the "Celestial Madonna," the mother of a child who was prophesied to be "the most important being in the universe."
Thank fuck they didn't adapt that fanfiction/Jean Grey tier shit.

>I really like Mantis from the comics
Could you, like, prove you read the comics?

>memesters and quipsters
>better

t. NO MUH WAIFU REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The movies aren't lelsorandumb. They're comedic, but the comedy isn't random.

Oh fuck off with your damage control. Dance off bro was fucking dumb and all the MCU GOTG are only vehicles to deliver quips.
>Drax in the comics: Inteligent, well spoken, loyal, friendly
>Drax in movies: HAHAHA LET ME EXPLAIN THE JOKE IN A REALLY LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS TONE BECAUSE IT IS SO FUNNY HAHAHA

So much worse than the never quipping comic counter parts

>Drax in the comics: Inteligent, well spoken, friendly
Loyal, sure, the rest? Fuck no.

>LE EBIN DANCE OFF X-DDD
>not lelsorandumb

>Intelligent
Except for that Starlin run, but yeah I agree.

>seriously expects a massive and thorough adaptation of a SIDE CHARACTER in a summer action movie that's being micromanaged to hell and back by kike executives in order to be as accessible to the masses as possible

is this guy a moron? no, really, is he dumb? and, jesus christ,

>That version of the character was a human who would later ascend to cosmic awareness and become the "Celestial Madonna," the mother of a child who was prophesied to be "the most important being in the universe." Along the way, she would be trained as a martial artist, and serve as a member of both the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy

what a ridiculous mary sue backstory, this shit would have theaters across the world cringing if it happened

>Make them better
No they make them into Tony Stark. The MCU has one character, and they take him and rehash his personality on every other character. Every fucking one makes quips, doesn't take shit seriously, is an asshole, and never gets shit for it. Except for Cap and hopefully Panther.

>this desperation
You should ask Marvel to make a Shill Edition of every GotG comic ever, for when you have to fight the enemies of your favorite corporation.

I read the DNA comics, and I don't think it's too much of a stretch to compare that to the movie version.

Yes there's still obvious differences, but it's still not as bad as Drax. He's extremely different from the comics (Though I suppose it could be argued he's a mix of classic and modern Drax)

I'm calling Steve out on complaining because he's too attached to the character he created. This is a character he literally brought with him to DC comics. She's basically his waifu, and he was never going to be happy with anything but a 1:1 adaption.

More like Giffen and DnA improved her.

Englehart Mantis has always been shit.

Which is beside the point. They took an obscure existing character and completely changed it when they could just have made a new one.

No one would have cared.

Sure, sure. The MCU saved comics again.

>Marvel actually puts your waifu on the big screen thus immortalizing her forever
>NOT MUH KUNG FU VIETNAMESE TREE-FUCKING HOOKER SPACE-VIRGIN MARY SUE MANTIS

Englehart keepin the dream alive I see. Wonder what he thinks of Star-Lord.

>is this guy a moron? no, really, is he dumb? and, jesus christ,
This is the guy who had Mantis beat Thor and Cap in her first appearance an take over the Avengers book.

They dont pay royalties. Bronze Tiger got his creator more money for SS then Drax got him for GotG and im betting the second one too.

MCU shills actually do it for free don't they

you'd either never see her, see her as a major villain, or see her as this in the current mcu, because nobody in their right mind is going to watch a mantis movie

it's time to pick your poison

I'm agreeing with you user, I want more seriousness from the comics, which you've totally read, to be in the movies.

>not muh Vietnamese hooker

>dance off
>random
How does it feel to not be able to follow movies made for children?
It's a payoff from earlier scenes where they set up that some aliens don't understand dancing, aswell as a "dancing saves the day" callback to that Footloose reference. Also a fitting character moment for Quill and a subvestion of classic action movie endings.

Doesn't the guy who created Wolverine get more from Lucious Fox's film appearances? Marvel's pretty shit about royalties

>>Mantis was altered to screen
>>Writer who created her hates it.
LOL, what a fucking moron.
>>Valkyrie is black
THOSE FUCKING SJW'S!!!

>They don't pay royalties
And so, not liking Marvel is also an ethical decision.

Not even the MCU can save Marvel Comics at this point

I literally just admitted I don't really like the movie version of Drax all that much.

Of course I'm going to defend the movie. It was an extremely good movie that I enjoyed. That doesn't mean its without its faults. I still want Star Lord to put on a damn helmet, and I really didn't like the Pac Man scene. The Tazerface joke also went on waaaaay too long.

And I'm a huge Spider-Man fan and am not excited about the new movie at all. There's too much different from the comic there with Not!Ganke, Tony Stark, Flash, and more.

Just because someone defends something doesn't mean they're undyingly loyal to it.

>b-but it's retarded on purpose!

That's fucking retarded because who is the creator in this scenario? The characters were created by half a dozen people before even others used them in Guardians of the Galaxy. DnA Mantis has as much in common with Englehart's as the movie.

I wpuldnt be surprised. Marvel Studios has all this money is the fucking cheapest pos ever.

He made more money off the Dark Knight movies than he ever made off of Wolverine

>MCU is ashamed of the source material

>water is wet

>Of course I'm going to defend the movie
It's your unpaid job after all.

Feige pls

It can easily be argued that the MCU is making the comics worse.

As I just explained, it's not retarded. You might be though.

Can you argue a fact

It's obvious Sup Forums doesn't care as long as they can fap them.

They can fap to MCU Mantis more than comic Mantis but not MCU Valkyrie.

The only ones who REEEEEE'd about not being able to fap that mucj rp MCU Mantis were footfags.

He said so, yes. Poor Len Wein.

>namecalling
Breaking.

Same with Starlin. Said he made more money from fucking KGBeast who wasn't even in costume than Marvel has paid him for all his characters they've used in the MCU combined.
