Inconsistencies between the Comic-Book Movies and the Source Material that Really Get Us Steamed



In the film Spider-Man the radioactive spider bite gave Peter Parker organic webshooters in his wrists instead of radioactive cancer.

Rip Taylor makes for an unconvincing screen version of the Hulk, particularly when he throws the tank like a girl.

Daredevil not nearly as much a pansy-ass as Ben Affleck.

In the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, rumors have it that the Thing will be made from Jell-O cubes, rather than solid granite.

Due to cost-cutting measures by the studio, Storm’s ability to summon storms replaced by ability to summon screenings of Twister.

Wolverine’s alter-ego, Logan, would never be caught dead watching the Tony Awards, much less hosting them.

Professor X not as gay in the orginal comic.

In the film League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Sean Connery makes it difficult to watch by constantly facing the camera and remarking, “THAT’S DAMN EXTRAORDINARY!”
