  1. NOVA WROTE A MATCH???? Well... Wow. I can't believe I missed this. I would have given this an A, of course. Excellent idea. I'm glad someone is using these Universe characters. As for the match, no idea how Rogue survived Black Bolt's scream. That would probably be much stronger than any other attack that the Marvel squad could do. Anyways, Rogue vs Everybody sounds good on paper, but as this set up shows, 95% of Everybody will probably get slaughtered. They'll serve as meat shields while Vulcan and the Magic people actually get down to business. Uh... Rogue ftw. But only if she's naked.
  2. Pay attention boys! Grab a seat and sit back. Enjoy the show. One of the CBUB's finest writers is taking the stage! Anyways, great match Culwych. My only complaint is that you spelled "color" wrong. We all know there's no "u" there. As for the battle, I'm pulling for Mr. Hyde. The man is a fearsome fighter, and while the Ripper may have never been caught, that doesn't mean he's such a clever fighter. Anyone can take down defenseless young women. Let's see the Ripper handle a fellow monster! Let justice be served!
  3. How the heck did this match only get one B and an F? Anyways, great idea. Your grammar was poor in several sections of the set up, and the dialogue in the beginning needs to be spaced out more. However, your fight scenes were excellent and the creativity of this match gets you a "B" from me.... Or it would have, had I gotten here on time. As for the match, I would have voted for Bond. If you read the set up, you'll know that Bond knows about the Horuxcross thingies. That's why he killed the snake first. With other teams finishing the job elsewhere, Bond should be able to take Voldemort (because really, if Harry can dodge all those spells, why can't Bond?) Bond shoots Voldemort in the face, then goes off and nails some witches.
  4. This match up idea... Whoa. Excellent. Nice use of creativity. I'm gonna give you an "A". Never would have thought of this match. As for who wins, I'm rooting for the one and only, HE-MAN! The guy is far stronger than the Red King, even in his power armor. As Hulk showed, the Red King has very little fighting experience, and relies on his pawns to do his fighting. Once He-Man evades a couple blows and dodges the Red King's swords/flamethrowers, it'll be game over. The Red King is just lucky it's just He-Man. The Masters would give a series beat down to his empire.
  5. Awesome match. An "A" from me. Welcome to the CBUB. Hope to see more great matches. As for the match, Marvel Herc ftw! DC Herc is such a jerk. The guy may be slightly stronger, but Marvel Herc parties like the best of them. He'll defeat his DC Counterpart at the bar. As for the ladies, come on. Is that even a contest? DC Herc was one of the first guys to discover Themyscara, an island full of bodacious women, yet he ended up fighting them. They still hate him. Marvel Herc? That guy's getting all the ladies. Whether its Atlantean royalty or Hulk's cousin, no lady is safe around this experienced warrior.
  6. Can't believe I didn't get to grade this. Awesome match. Would have given this an A. As for the match, Hulk Smash!
  7. Methos is probably right. DC likes to overpower their heroes. I've never seen GL stop time in recent memory, but I'm sure he did it back in the 70s and it's recorded in some obscure DC Wiki. As for why Hal doesn't do it constantly, it's because his comic would sell very poorly if he just spammed that move over and over again.
  8. Pshhhhh. Everyone knows the Flower Children are all a product of the Great Generation's success. They're Baby Boomers who were the first generation of people who could just lounge around getting high and "experimenting". Their "white picket fence", suburban upbringing has prepared them very poorly for any real combat. While their idealistic outlook on life is somewhat refreshing, their dependence on LSD and other drugs will be their downfall After all, as a fellow nerd, I know that the burning passion for Comic Con cannot be sated with anything. Unlike drugs, fan rage does not decrease with time, but rather increases. Furthermore, fanboys have faced opposition from protest groups many times before (have you ever seen the outside of Comic Con?) They'll come in charging, armed with replica swords and shields (thanks to the D&D Roleplayers). Their insane cosplay costumes will strike fear into the hearts of the hippies. They shall not be denied! MARVANOTE: Great set up btw.

    Not really sure if it has subliminal messages. It's pretty straight forward. As for glorifying violence, the movie is just the result of everything modern culture has morphed into. The fact this movie was made just proves a lot of its points (mainly that we've all become desensitized). The movie also talks about how much we're obsessed with fame, how easy it is to buy guns, how dumb reality tv is, how distant we all are from one another, and many more things. Sure, it's ridiculously over the top and definitely not something anyone should emulate, but it was certainly entertaining. Like I said. It's not for everyone. You'll watch it and either hate it or ask yourself what you just watched.

    1. That's what I'm talking about!! Marvel Studios cannot be denied! 2. I recently saw "God Bless America". Craziest movie ever. Not sure if it was awesome or disturbing. This guy basically has a mental break down after finding out he has a brain tumor and goes on a rampage. He only targets those he thinks are ruining modern society (so Fox News anchors, people who talk in movie theatres, reality tv stars, and babies who cry too much). It's so funny yet super crazy. I'm not even sure if I recommend it. It's just different.
  11. Comrade! Is it college time already? Whoa. Where does the time go... Anyways, don't worry about the CBUB. Sure, we all wish you would stay and chat and write stories and whatnot, but it's finally time for you to tackle the real world. You have to meet the Zooey Deschanel type girls and do all the fun college nerdy things Hollywood has promised us! Best of luck my friend. Hope you have an awesome college experience.
  12. Hmmmm. Alright, Surfer seems to know what he's talking about (also, he went with what I want I want to pick). Garrus and Wrex it shall be! MARVANOTE: And yeah. I guess the blue oracle chick and I could have just... Played shirtless twister? Cleaned her windows?
  13. Hey, I'm not saying that a 90s Era Will Smith punch doesn't hurt. Or that the crash didn't daze him (but seriously, I'm sure the hyper advanced ship had some sort of future air bags. I mean, the alien did come out all angry and crap. He had all his tentacles flailing like he was about to choke somebody. He didn't seem too hurt to me...) Anyways, I'm just saying. Xenos eat up hardened marines like Cheerios. All the muscle and ammo helps lower their cholesterol or something. They're just too much! Without their force fields, the ID Aliens got owned hard. Thats what's happening here.
  14. Isn't she mostly robotic? ... Oh, and I already got dat blue oracle chick and I didn't even realize I was going for her. My charm must have been too high. One minute I'm talking to some general guy, the next, I'm seeing some weird Hollywood style love cut scenes. Crazy stuff.
  15. We have galleries?
  16. I'm going with the original facehugging, acid blooded, tiny mouth within a mouth aliens! Why? Because this set up was hilarious! Oh, and the ID4 Aliens rely too much on their tech. In hand to hand combat, a single fist from Will Smith was able to knock one out cold. I realize that same alien later decimated a room full of scientists, but come on. When have you seen a movie where the scientists who perform the autopsy DON'T get ripped apart by the thing they're cutting open? Also, the blue skinned people are not in this match. They only exist to provide incredible entertainment as the newly created Blue Xenos rip through them.
  17. Oh yeah, I'm loving it. Can't decide on who should be on my squad though. All the really cool looking aliens are the same character (a muscleman), and then there's the nerdy type supporting character. I wanted to have Garrus AND Wrex, but I realized that would be dumb. So I'm using Wrex and Tali. And I'm still not sure whether to go paragon or renegade.
  18. Finally got the time to play Mass Effect (I heard its a long story type game, so I've been playing Batman, Minecraft, and Battlefield 3 until I got the time). Started playing yesterday and... I FREAKING HATE ELEVATORS!! WTF! ARE ELEVATORS IN THE FUTURE MANUALLY LIFTED BY SMALL CHILDREN OR SOMETHING??? HAS NO ONE THOUGHT ABOUT UPGRADING THOSE THINGS??? Also, the moment when you get your spaceship... It just blew my mind.
  19. I never made it to Piccolo. Can anybody tell me if he's worth Google Image searching? MARVANOTE: And DBZ was the stuff man! You just need to be able to sit through tons of episodes filled with stare downs and rocks levitating from how powerful everybody is (the perfec age is somewhere between 6-12). It was like seeing every fight I'd ever imagined my action figures would have, except with way more shirtless guys. I can't imagine why a movie studio wouldn't make an honest DBZ movie. Get Michael Bay to direct it or something. It's practically everything Americans enjoy already! ... Maybe this is America's way of attacking the Japanese? By destroying their beloved franchises? That would explain why Pokemon is still limping on and that Astro Boy movie.

    I don't think I've ever been let down by a movie so much as I was by Ninja Assassin. I just now got around to seeing that thing... And by Stan Lee's cameos, what a terrible movie. I mean, I don't even understand why I dislike it so much. The cover told me what to expect. The first scene where blood sprays out of people like a water fountain... There were so many signs. But I just didn't expect... I mean, the thing with her heart? Gahhhh... And I normally like mindless action flicks...
  21. Landon speaks the truth! G Gundam was the greatest thing to ever appear on television. It had ridiculous stereotypes of every country. And no matter how many times the episode ended with da Burning Hand attack, it was still freaking awesome. Big thumbs up to Landon for reminding me about it. I got to go search the internet now.
  22. Huh. Marvel heroes vs computer animated cannon fodder. I feel like I've seen this before. A "D" on the set up. Too many grammar mistakes my friend. My own grammar sucks, but this was too much.
  23. Check out this chick's bow:
  24. Huzzah! Victory is finally mine! Anyways, props to all the other writers for being so insanely creative and a big thanks to the judges. As a guy who judges others constantly (and sometimes their writing), I know that taking the time to read other people's matches is a big commitment. A big thumbs up for another well executed challenge. But of course, the biggest thanks goes to DSkillz! His Mayhem character add got my imagination running.
