too much iron in your blood
What a kickass scene.
>>215429385>to much semen in my mouthThis actor is an actual homosexual
>>215429424he didnt say that
>>215429385Would this actually work?
>>215429453You mean could a mutant with magnetic superpowers tear iron out of your blood?
>>215429453Yes, but only with microplastics
>>215429557Yes that's what he means.
Wouldn't that make magneto literally the most powerful capeshitter on earth? He could just snap his finger and kill every single mammal like that
>>215429623it only works if there's enough iron in the blood
>>215429453In the sense of "could a man who can control metal pull concentrated iron from your blood and make it a weapon", sure, the unrealistic part besides the superpower is Mystique injecting him with that much iron would be lethal so he wouldn't make it to work to bring the iron to Magneto. But seeing as we're in superpower territory, a little creative license is alright because it was a really cool scene.
>>215429623The amount of iron in blood normally is microscopic. This guard had an unnatural amount because he'd been dosed with a syringe of it. In fact it would be toxic to have so much in his blood so he was a dead man walking either way.
>>215429623well, he actually is one of the most powerful on earth, it's a good illustration of why
>>215429623Mystique injected some iron or paramagnetic whatever into him. But yeah a changing magnetic field can literally cook you if its strong enough, just by inducing current, no magnetic material needed and since he can lift an entire bridge in x3 he could def do that en masse
>>215429385I enjoyed the use of classical music in this movie.
Why do we have metal in our blood?
>>215429385iron ions in the blood are not magnetic, this scene makes no sense
>>215429706>The body of an adult human contains about 4 grams (0.005% body weight) of iron, mostly in hemoglobin and myoglobin. These two proteins play essential roles in oxygen transport by blood and oxygen storage in muscles. To maintain the necessary levels, human iron metabolism requires a minimum of iron in the diet. Iron is also the metal at the active site of many important redox enzymes dealing with cellular respiration and oxidation and reduction in plants and animals.
>>215429385I went to see that movie when I was 11 with my best friend and we onions faced so hard at the whole movie, I thought Nightcrawler had an awesome power and that scene blew our minds when Magneto took the iron from the blood of the guardsGod I love X-Men, so cool
>>215429733The solution Mystique injected him with was magnetic.
>>215429581Well, no. The answer is no for the same reason why MRI machines don't suck out blood despite being on the same power level as Magneto. It's because iron in its bioavaliable form isn't ferromagnetic. It's chemically bound in ways that limit its magnetic properties. The only way to do what Magneto did is by having reactive iron directly injected into the blood stream, which would absolutely fuck someone up.Intense magnetic fields can harm people by fucking with the electrical charge in their nerves and neurons, however. This is part of the background lore in Avatar. Humans and native life on Pandora can't get too close to the floating rocks without suffering hallucinations.
>>215429639very leveled take
X2 did such a better job of demonstrating how dangerous both the heroes AND villains were power wise. Wolverine ruthlessly slaughtering all the soldiers in the mansion, Magneto doing this, Storm pulling tornados out of thin air, the opening Nightcrawler scene, Professor X being globally dangerous with Cerebro, etc.
>>215429664Yeah from what I read, he's like one of the highest tier mutants. I think Jean Grey and the Ice guy are on the same tier because they can control other fundamental aspects of physical reality
>>215429786Better job than what movie?
>>215429786Yeah, it had some cool scenes, like the fire mutant blowing up all the police cars from the porch of the house
>>215429792Jean is either portrayed as the weakest telekinetic user ever, or the strongest one ever when in Phoenix form.
>>215429581
>>215429786Mystique also gets to do a lot more and they emphasized how dangerous SHE was. Rebecca Romajin did a great job playing her, too. It's amazing that a literal model wound up turning in a better performance as a character than fucking Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence.
>>215429786>did such a better jobCompared to?
>>215429872The later movies. They all either significantly tone down their powers or introduce plot reasons why they can't use theirs.
>>215429792The "tier" system was very poorly defined and there were some bizarre reasonings given for why this or that person wasn't at the highest level, omega, but it received a more firm definition a few years ago with a clear reasoning for the highest level beyond just "this person's really powerful", and Magneto got put on it at last (he was nonsensically not classed as one before that), basically saying they possess a power that has an undefinable upper limit that can't be measured or attained by other means, as far as what that power governs.The examples used in the new definition even were Magneto, plus the character Forge, where Magneto's magnetism power has no measurable limit and fundamentally can't be surpassed, while Forge's technopathy, mastery over technology, is the strongest on earth and yet could be surpassed in theory by other means, say by Tony Stark not having an inherent power over technology but just attaining superior knowledge and skill with it.It's all made up rules sure but they managed to clear it up and also added a bunch of mutants to the list who should have been there before.Ironically, Forge got a specific powerup in a story more recently that actually did make him Omega level
>>215429836This is bullshit, by the way. Blood iron is paramagnetic, not ferromagnetic. Hence why MRIs don't hurt us. A person would die of other things before the magnetic field was strong enough to affect the minute charges on the atoms in their body. The nerves in their brain would be firing uncommanded and they'd just have a seizure/die because their brain can't make the heart beat or breathing muscles move.
>>215429894Well sometimes that's a good thing. Like when Wolverine lost his healing powers and had to learn how to fight in a non-suicidal way.
>>215429802Than the first movie. The power scenes are very pedestrian for the most part. I think the only time I remember something seeming really lethal was Cyclops getting his visor knocked off and immediately letting out a gigantic uncontrolled blast.
>>215429821Jean's omega mutant status is actually from her telepathy, not her telekinetic powers. The newer definition clarifies that it's referring to individual powers and a mutant who has multiple ones might only be omega level in one of them.Which would explain why they get ramped up so much when she's possessed by the Phoenix.
>>215429937Are you telling me that this comic book about a man with an unbreakable metal skeleton and his friend with laser vision isn't 100% medically accurate? DROPPED.
>>215429894The first film.
Why did he kill JFK?
>>215429424So are you
In the comic Magneto could manipulate iron in your blood to make you feel incredibly aroused. He turned several mutants gay using this trick.
>>215429786I've got to assume the budget was a lot bigger after the success of the first movie, so they could go all-out on the mutant powers better.
>>215429706We come from the earth
>>215429935>Magneto's magnetism power has no measurable limit and fundamentally can't be surpassedSo magneto could rip the earths core apart? That's retarded. There should always be limits
>>215429935Forge sounds pretty cool, I gotta start reading the comics, it'd be interesting to see how his powers with technology work. it's so cool though when they make these X-Men movies and stuff because there's so many different mutants with flashy cool powers and seeing them being used in combat on a screen is just fun, that's why I want them to make more films with X-Men universe content
>>215429706Because it's required to bind oxygen
>>215429987If a film wants to play by the rules of real world physics/chemistry/biology by calling attention to them, then they can't just pick and choose what's reality and fiction.
>>215429851>It's amazing that a literal model wound up turning in a better performance as a character than fucking Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence.True, lmao
>>215429972>Jean's omega mutant status is actually from her telepathyBut she never really uses it.
>>215430038It was, plus Singer was a lot more versed in the big spectacle filmmaking. The first film not only had a lower budget, but it got some of its budget cut right before filming started too.
>>215429935I thought Wolverine should be an omega level mutant but then I thought about it some more, and in the grand scheme of things, he's basically like an indestructible metal bug that goes around and is annoying
>>215430063He stopped the Earth's electromagnetic field in the 1990s in a fit of vengeful mania
>>215430166Correct and his kind of healing can be duplicated elsewhere by other means, his is just potent because it's inherent in him so he's really hard to kill.
>>215430038>I've got to assume the budget was a lot bigger after the success of the first movie, so they could go all-out on the mutant powers better.Days of Future Past, the beginning of the movie where they're in the future fighting the Sentinels, that was the coolest display of cape shit ever, then the rest of the movie is just kinda okay, lmao
>>215430115He had a well known storyline with Storm in the 80s that they adapted for the recent X-Men '97 revival of the 90s cartoon, while it was more focused on Storm, it's memorable.
too much hebrew in your blood
>>215429385Why are jews like this?
>>215429654>The amount of iron in blood normally is microscopicThere's enough altogether to make a small nail's worth but pull it all out of your blood would cause you to asphyxiate since its the iron that bonds to the oxygen
>>215429987First, suspension of disbelief doesn't work like that, you can't just say >the core mechanic of the work in question existing means that basic biology which causes our very real bodies to work goes out the windowThey first have to explain how magneto can manipulate that kind of iron instead of saying that the regular human body should get fucked constantly by regular magnetic fieldsSeconldy>laser visionhis eyes open a portal to the punch dimension from which a beam escapes
>>215430298This is not the actual explanation for Cyclops's beams, that was claimed by ONE writer and has never been mentioned since.
>>215430130See, the problem is that comic book writers are usually not scientists or science-adjacent (beyond I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE "I only pick popsci headlines that agree with my worldview").In essence this means sperging out about scientific inaccuracy in comic books makes you even more of a retard than the people writing them.Don't be the equivalent to a gun sperg.
>>215430336Oh, i knowbut its the dumbest and thus funniest
>>215430211lol
>>215429706Iron helps us play
>>215430028You made that up
>>215429706Because we are badass as fuck, sometimes im walking around and remember that im of the species that fucking crushed the food chain and dominated the planet and literally wiped out entire fucking species within the animal kingdom, nothing can stop us, we are the apex of the apex, fuck I gotta go do weighted dips let's fucking gk
SHE'S MADE OF IRON, SIR
>>215429786Best X-Men movie. That or DOFP.The rest are mid or garbo.
>>215430482>weighted dips
>>215430130>they can't just pick and choose what's reality and fiction.They clearly can because that's exactly what they did. I guess they didn't realize that you would be here on 4chan 20 years later to put them in their place? If only they'd know, they would surely have created a superhero movie more grounded in reality.
>>215430341Should I just turn my brain off and accept bad writing, bro?
>>215430824No, but you should shut up about it
>>215430775Remember how in the recent Fantastic 4 film, they made a point about collapsing a neutron star into a black hole to slow down the Silver Surfette via time dilation? That was bullshit as well. If she can move faster than light to travel between star systems, a black hole wouldn't hold her for any length of time. Also, just the fact of FTL existing means time travel is possible, which is something we know from the same equations that describe time dilation. So the writers invoked a law of physics to tell their story, not knowing that it belies their own story.
>>215430824>it's bad beause....uh....it just ok
>>215430840We're in a thread centered on discussing the writing of these stories. I might as well do it.
>>215430890>beause....uh>Blood iron is paramagnetic, not ferromagnetic. Hence why MRIs don't hurt us.

>>215429639>>215429385The average body has 4 grams of iron.Here is what three grams looks like.
how did injecting that much iron not immediately kill him
>>215429385that's a badass scene, topped by Doppio vs Risotto
>>215430951GLAD YOU ASKED BABY BOY.Iron injected directly into fat (like that of the buttocks) would take weeks if not months to actually be absorbed by the systemic system and reach his blood stream in toxic dosages.Granted, the amount she injected might still kill him because jesus fucking christ.I have never personally injected a cola cans worth of iron into someone's buttocks and cannot give you a real answer.I just know that most things injected into the fat deposit do not absorbs instantly.That's why we often inject them into the muscle, where it will be released within minutes.
>>215430867>Remember how in the recent Fantastic 4 filmYou aren't actually assuming that other people watched that slop, are you?
>>215429424>This actor is an actual homosexualwhy you paying attention to stuff like this, hoping to meet him?
>>215431141It's admittedly a shot in the dark. Maybe some of us have seen some cunt's review of it.
>>215430211heheheh
Superpowers is one thing, but I refuse to believe you can inject a pound of iron into a dude and he'll just go to work like nothing's wrong
>>215429836why the fuck does Magneto care about blacks and gays? And why did whoever wrote this want the villain to be on their side?
>>215432551Muh oppressed groupsKinda dumb cause in real life people from different opporessd groups still hate each other
>>215432551He's equating their persecution examples to how a mutant got similar treatment.
>>215430673>too much Irish in your blood
>>215430697>First Class is midKys.
>>215430482>im of the species that fucking crushed the food chain and dominated the planet and literally wiped out entire fucking species within the animal kingdomYou didn't do any of this. You were born into comfort. Celebrating this is the same mentality as going out and partying because the sports team you were sitting on a couch cheering for won.
>>215429424He's also a Holocaust survivor
>>215429385>jewish holocaust survivor turns out to be a genocidal fascistuhhhhmm what the h*ck did they mean by this?
>>215429424There's no such thing as too much
>>215429453No. You die from heavy metal poisoning with that much iron.
>>215429385kino scene, kino movieX-Men is the only capeshit i respect
>>215433707>the only capeshit he respects is irredeemable slop he is internally elevating because he saw it when he was 9many such cases. unironically half of the marvelslops beat x men but you didn't see those when your brain was developing so you didn't fall in love with them yes, you fell in love with a series of images and are now passing it off as genuine artistic criticism you are that fucking stupid
>>215433746>unironically half of the marvelslops beat x menhow about no?
Why didn't Mystique played by Rebecca Romijin Stamos just disguise herself as the guard and smuggle some metal in herself?
>>215433146FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA!!!
>>215433842What a dumb fucking question. Since you presumably watched the movie, how did they smuggle the metal in?
>>215429755underrated ackshually post
>>215429385Rad
>>215430930What if he stood on it with his tippy toe and levitated across the gap?
