It's just a thing I do so we're clear on what specifically I'm replying to.
But he moved so fast everyone else was frozen. None of that stuff should've phased him, just like how QS wasn't phased by the guards at the Pentagon.
The same thing with them being idiots applies to MCU Quicksilver when he somehow thought it was a good idea to try and catch a large hammer in mid air causing him to defeat...himself.
He didn't know that the Hammer's magic would mean he couldn't move. Rather inventive way of neutralizing him.
You must really hate Dormammu, Ego, Ronan, Hela and Thanos.
Dormammu wasn't shown until the very end of Dr Strange, and required the movie to use its brain as opposed to JL just hitting Steppenwolf enough times.
Ego WAS ultra-powerful, more powerful than Superman. But it took SO MUCH to stop him compared to Steppenwolf it's better done.
Ronan, again he wasn't defeated by just one guy hitting him enough times but a Primal Cosmic Force.
Hela, again took outside-the-box thinking.
If JL had employed some outside-the-box thinking to stop Steppenwolf it would've made up for other stuff. But it didn't.
But that's not what I'm referring to, I know Captain America is a great character but when it comes to the action scenes in the Avengers movies, he has been largely useless. He constantly gets beaten up and loses to characters that portrayed as weaklings to some of the other Avengers.
And that's not a bad thing. It shows a character can be well done and enjoyable without being a plotbreaking super-God.
And there was no reason why Steppenwolf couldn't outmatch them. He's been shown to be too much for Wonder Woman in the comics just the same.
WW in the comics wasn't a match for Doomsday the way the movie version was. And as we saw, Steppenwolf was much weaker than a NORMAL Kryptonian, much less an augmented one.
If WW hadn't been shown battling beings like Doomsday or Ares and easily lasting against them, this wouldn't have been so bad.
Or if they'd used a villain who was more powerful than Superman.
