It literally is. He's casting a shadow despite moving FTL because the animators didn't ******* think of it, literally the same idea.

You're stating he is moving FTL as if that were something established in story. We see light move pretty normally twice, and he has a shadow, and for however fast he is captured for a frame by a camera.

Or, they did and the feat wasn't supposed to be Ftl to begin with. Even the light rays blitz him.

Unfortunately logic proves the opposite. Like, in the very same scene he makes a lightspeed beam look really slow. You know, that beam which is the actual focus of the scene instead of a secondary detail?
Also you can literally pass in front of a camera without being detected by being like, Transonic or something, you're not arguing he is that slow, right?

He doesn't outspeed the laser though? It gets fired after the whole thinking phase, and he only flies out of the building by when the laser hit the observatory.

After reviewing the clips, he doesn't outspeed the laser, but he does outspeed the explosion it caused.

You can clearly see it moving at a very slow pace as it melts the roof.
- 7,140
- 3,652
We also see the explosion moving at the same pace. He has no feats actually moving faster than light or the beam.
- 7,140
- 3,652
The speed of the roof melting is irrelevant though.
- 15,530
- 11,830
You can literally see him fly away from it before it can hit the ground.
And no the speed of the roof melting is very important since the laser is tier 7, it wouldn't be slowed down by the roof in any meaningful way, especially since the roof was not meant to stop it at all.

The laser never hits the ground, and if you watch the scene when he flies outside the explosion has already started, tanking up the whole background.

The beam stops at the roof, we see it happen.

Meh, i'm willing to concede.

I dunno, if someone feels like cleaning up my rough calculation and putting it in a blog, they can go ahead, otherwise idk

Eh, I don't think there's enough evidence for that but at the same time it's not an unreasonable assumption

Bump?

Basically, Tighten and Megamind should not scale to Metroman in speed because it basically betrays the narrative, as well as the fact that Tighten is repeatedly shown to be inferior to Metroman.
So the solution to this is remove FTL from Megamind and Thighten's profiles entirely. And place Metroman as At least High 8-C for being superior to Tighten.
However some people think that FTL for Metroman is bunk, so my solution until someone makes a calc for him is to "At least Supersonic, likely far higher" Via upscaling from Tighten for previous reasons
- 24,058
- 24,672
Considering majority of the thread has been universally agreed, I think the changes can be applied. Metroman's speed should be left aside until someone makes a calc for his feat
- 3,029

I also got the idea that the speed Metroman went at was a choice thing from the movie, and it is obviously not the speed at which he would always go, I personally believe that Tighten would still warrant something along the lines of "Possibly up to FTL", while Metroman should have "Up to FTL" since we often see him casually flying at subsonic to supersonic speeds.
Megamind on the other hand definitely shouldn't scale at all, that I can agree with completely.

I mean, there really isn't anything to show he's as fast as Metroman, as most of the time he's cowering when Metroman is mentioned.
He's shown to have the same abilities, but not the same potency as said abilities. I'm pretty sure it was also pointed out that Megamind stated that Metroman > Tighten. I'll have to find the scan tho
Also, Metroman not flying at FTL speed as always isn't exactly an anti feat. He likely just doesn't have a reason to fly that far
- 15,478

Why would Metroman need to fly in FTL always? even me, normal human being (weak than normal) can run 100 meters in more than 15 seconds, thats my peak speed currently right? but it doesnt means that I will need to go in these speed always, I would I need to run across my home just to go to bedroom to kitchen or from my room to a market to buy food? its not needed, mainly in a verse that nobody even scales to u, like Metroman, there is nobody in that verse that scales to him, so, why would him use FTL most of times? It makes no sense
Tighten has no feats that are even close to it, Metroman can blitz Megamind, as shown here
''''
while tighten despite being fast, megamind still can react to him, so yeah, tighten doesnt scales to Metroman speed

This seems fine to me at least.
- 15,478
- 10,278
Yeah, I like it as well, I just don't think that we should scale Tighten to Metroman, as all the feats in the verse showes that Metroman is far superior
- 15,478
- 10,278
The suggestion was to scale Metroman speed to Supersonic likely far higher until someone calc Metroman feat
- 24,058
- 24,672
Yeah, it's better to have a proper calculation for Metroman's feat rather than assuming FTL. Can I edit the profiles now?
- 24,058

I've edited the Metroman page. I think we're done here?

Hold on, was Tighten supposed to get that most recent edit? He has now a "Far higher" rating via scaling to Metro Man, which was the whole thing this thread was against?

You're so naive, Roxanne. You see the good in everybody, even when it's not there. You're living a fantasy. There is no Easter Bunny, there is no Tooth Fairy and there is no Queen of England. This is the real world, and you need to wake up!Tighten to Roxanne Ritchie Hal Stewart, better known by...
