@Ronan3Accuser - I have a feeling those two shields he has will combine into a circle shield, and that's what the mystery weapon is.
Ronan3Accuser
Ronan3Accuser - 4/12/2018, 5:38 AM
@Origame - That could be. I think it depends on the timeline. I wouldn’t think this battle takes place at the beginning. Maybe middle. But at some point his shield comes back. BP Scratch’s and all worn.

@Ronan3Accuser - I don't know. I'm thinking we wont see the old shield until Avengers 4.

@Origame - he’ll definitely go out like a boss.

@Origame - As much as I want to see the stars and stripes, I would forgive him not having it if this happens. This gauntlet thing isn't practical enough at least not for throwing. And maybe everybody has to get a new weapon (Thor's Stormbreaker and Buckey's new arm blah blah) but Cap can't use his signature style with said weapon unless it's designed like his previous one.

@Ronan3Accuser - But in Homecoming, Happy was talking about Cap's new "shield". That could be a renewed modified version or unlikely something different.

@BobbyBraceface8 - throwing a shield isn't practical anyway.

@Ronan3Accuser - His montage after his death is just that gif over and over again.

@Origame - Dude are you really trying to be logical or playing devil's advocate because you like the new shield? You're not going to find much practicality in most comic book movies and movies in general so there is no need in arguing that. But cap no having a shield is Spidey with no webs or Tony no iron suit. Sure they've survived it but they eventually get back to the comfort zone of their main weapon.
Origame
Origame - 4/12/2018, 10:04 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - But he has a shield here. Two in fact. Even shaped like his classic original. And where isn't there much practicality in comics? Being able to fly, heal, or form near indestructible ropes are pretty useful. Even Cap's shield has it's practical qualities. It's just not there when he throws it. Especially in a heated battle where people are still shooting you.

BobbyBraceface8 - 4/12/2018, 11:08 AM
@Origame - In the comics, the shield is part adamantium and throwing it makes it the perfect offensive/ defensive weapon because the edges are sharp. However, it doesn't cover the whole body. I like to think that it's slightly magnetic in the center and that's why the bullets go straight to the shield.
Origame
Origame - 4/12/2018, 11:14 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - No. It's a perfectly fine DEFENSIVE tool. Do you know what happens when you throw it? It's useless to you as a defensive tool. Also, considering it's supposed to be vibranium, meaning it absorbs vibrations, it's pretty useless as an offensive weapon.
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/13/2018, 12:52 AM
@Origame - Do you actually read comics or have an imagination? That is why the vibranium/ adamantium is the perfect weapon for a character such as Cap. He has a symbiotic relationship with the shield. Defense and offense are automatic for a person with Steve's abilities. So he is fast enough to react but sometimes not fast enough to move. Obviously, the shield protects his body but the best thing about Cap is he's three steps ahead so he seems helpless and vulnerable but while you think ur gonna him with gunfire the sharp edge of vibrani-mantium is coming for your head. That and fact that it bounces off of anything it hits returning back to the thrower just seals the deal.
Origame
Origame - 4/13/2018, 1:38 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - I don't need to read the comics to know this. It's common sense. If shield throwing had any strategic advantage, we would have figured out a way to do it by now. Any attack that involves shields in combat is designed to minimize the number of vulnerable spots a person gets when attacking. Throwing the shield only gives you more vulnerable spots. It doesn't matter if it comes back because the time it takes to come back is more than enough time for you to get shot. And if he's fast enough to account for that, then it's to the point of it being used as a shield is basically useless in general. Just make it a boomerang if you want a throwing weapon. Heck, any military that noticed the advantages of throwing the shield would have given Steve a different weapon to throw so he's not stupidly without a shield when he does this.

@Origame - Wow you're so smart you've logically broken down the flaws of the comic book character, Captain America. Very original...
Origame
Origame - 4/13/2018, 2:10 PM
@BobbyBraceface8 - Dude, you're the guy who brought up practicality when it came to his ability to throw it. Don't bring that up if it isn't practical in the first place.
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/13/2018, 9:08 PM
@Origame - Bro I was saying that the new shield doesn't make isn't practical for throwing because it's not it's not round and doesn't have that total equal shape of leveling out its deflective energy. The round shield IS practical in real life! Its called a frisbee! You're saying if we (in real life) figured out a strategic advantage of throwing a shield than we would do it all the time and I'm saying no because Cap and his shield go hand and hand because of his abilities. It's practical because of that world. Based on your logic, why don't all the Avengers carry shields? Cap's weapon IS logical for him because of his quick reflexes!
Origame
Origame - 4/14/2018, 3:54 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - Dude a frisbee is a toy. That has no practical function. Also, these shields here are clearly not meant to be thrown, so that just stops you right there. And no, I'm not saying if we could figure out how to throw a shield we would do that because that defeats the purpose of a shield. On top of that, the movies explain why not everyone carries a shield. The shield is made of a very rare metal that we only have enough to make the one shield. No one else physically CAN have more shields (except Black Panther but since his whole suit is made of it it doesn't matter). And again, an indestructible shield is extremely practical. Even if it doesn't cover the whole body. Throwing it? Not at all.

BobbyBraceface8 - 4/14/2018, 5:09 PM
@Origame - cool story bro... I guess that's why this character does what he does because throwing a shield is impractical...
Origame
Origame - 4/14/2018, 5:24 PM
@BobbyBraceface8 - What kind of a point is that? It works because the writer wrote that it did. It has nothing to do with practicality. I could just as easily write a story of a man who took a plane ride around the planet to deliver a present to someone who was in the same house he was already in. Are you gonna call that practical because that's what my character did?
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/15/2018, 9:59 AM
@Origame - Bro quite frankly I'm tired of arguing with you about the reason Cap's circular vibranium shield works as a perfect weapon for him. You seem to be hung up on the fact that Cap's shield is dumb because it leaves him vulnerable after he throws it. I get that and I agree he doesn't constantly get shot up when he throws it because that's how the writers wrote the character. However, that's the joy of COMIC BOOKS and superheroes and their abilities. Spidey can dodge bullets because of his fast reflexes. He doesn't need a shield (unless its a silly web shield for a kids book or a video game. Cap, on the other hand, is fast but not that fast. The shield gives him the extra edge of invulnerability. Even when he throws it because part of his abilities is his strategic thought process. He knows exactly when to throw it. And because he's not dumb and basically the best athlete ever he always gets his target. The weapon works because of how the character works. Great reflexes = great timing for throwing and dodging. Comic book logistics = fictional forgiving practicality...
Origame
Origame - 4/15/2018, 10:05 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - Then don't bring up f%$#ing practicality. In terms of practicality, these new shields are much more practical. Especially since they can have multiple modes of coverage. If you'd rather see Cap throw his shield, then that's fine. But from a practical sense, it's these new shields that are all the way. Throwing a shield is NOT practical. I dont have a problem with him throwing the thing. But it's NOT practical. Get over yourself.
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/15/2018, 10:07 AM
@Origame - And to comment about you your possible story about this man who rode a plane around the planet to deliver a package to someone in the same house, they've made tons of stories with elements like that. Because in that case, it's not about the present delivered of the fact that the person was in the same house the whole time it about the journey that this character took around the world while delivering this package and what they learned along the way. Boyah! I just made sense of a character you pulled out ur ass to prove me wrong. Your move, mate! Check!
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/15/2018, 10:23 AM
@Origame - You keep bringing up the practicality of a comic book... and you better watch your tone smart boi... get over yourself genius...
Origame
Origame - 4/15/2018, 2:44 PM
@BobbyBraceface8 - Jesus Christ. What is wrong with you? You start off by saying "this new shield isn't practical because you can't throw it". I'm arguing "throwing a shield isn't practical". That is what we're arguing. It does not matter if throwing a shield is more interesting. IT'S NOT PRACTICAL! I agree that I think that the shield throwing is better and cooler. It's still not more practical. There. Mic drop. Unless you can actually come at me with points for how the shield throwing is legitimately more practical, then that's it.
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/17/2018, 12:07 PM
@Origame - I'm saying Cap and his shield make sense and is symbolic because of his construction as a character You're all mad and talking about what is and is not practical in a comic book movie...
Chill... and enjoy the movie... next time watch your language or I'll show you my cage fighting skills!
Origame
Origame - 4/17/2018, 1:10 PM
@BobbyBraceface8 - no that's not what you started off with at least. You came to me talking about practicality. And did I say that I dont enjoy it? No. I'm just addressing your point on practicality. Dont bring up practicality if that's not what you really wanna talk about.
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/18/2018, 10:44 AM
@Origame - @BobbyBraceface8 - throwing a shield isn't practical anyway.

@Origame - Dude are you really trying to be logical or playing devil's advocate because you like the new shield? You're not going to find much practicality in most comic book movies and movies in general so there is no need in arguing that...

Who brought up practicality first? You can literally scroll up and check lol Are like a smart ass entitled teenager that has to be right? I give up! you win! But you could at least get a cool pic to match your cool name. You seem intelligent so I'm sure you'll do well in your future endeavors. Godspeed, God bless and may the force be with you! PEACE!
BobbyBraceface8
BobbyBraceface8 - 4/18/2018, 10:48 AM
@Origame - BTW I was agreeing with you that these gauntlet things combine into one big shield. I was saying I think that would be cool but I like his standard shield, understand?
Origame
Origame - 4/19/2018, 1:40 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - ...yes...that's what I said. And THIS is what I was responding to. "This gauntlet thing isn't practical enough at least not for throwing". It's funny how that works when you only look so far.
Origame
Origame - 4/19/2018, 1:41 AM
@BobbyBraceface8 - And no. As I've proven, you were talking about the practicality. I made a quick comment about how they aren't really practical, then you turned it into a huge thing. Get over yourself.

Where were these "toys," when I was growing up? lol. Of course, considering how expensive they are, I wouldn't want to actually play with them.

Ronan3Accuser - 4/12/2018, 5:09 AM
@Luminus - all my 80’s toys were donated to the rescue mission by my Mom and Grandma during a spring cleaning one year. They about lost it when I told them how much they are worth today.
Luminus
Luminus - 4/12/2018, 5:17 AM
@Ronan3Accuser - Ouch. I gave mine away. I didn't see the Internet coming, so.... I made some cash on the Marvel Legends figures I started collecting, later, though. The Juggernaut fetched a pretty profit.
Origame
Origame - 4/12/2018, 5:21 AM
@Luminus - Are you saying that, as a kid, you wouldn't want to play with them because of how expensive they are?
Luminus
Luminus - 4/12/2018, 5:41 AM
@Origame - I was VERY careful with my toys. I'm unusual like that.
Origame
Origame - 4/12/2018, 5:43 AM
@Luminus - That's so like Steve Carell's character from 40 year old virgin how he kept all his childhood toys in their packaging and never opened them.
