Michael Myers vs Atom (Real Steel)

It is, Charlie was still always opposite Atom and when we did the jump and punch, Charlie had to move back into Atom's field of view. Its also why he told Atom to keep his "eyes on me".
 
I looked up "shadowboxing" on the Real Steel wiki and there's no article about it. It seems not even the fans understand how the heck it functions.

Come to think of it, considering how Shadowboxing works, Charlie would have to run towards Michael in order to make Atom come to his aid.
1. Charles doesn't even use the shadowboxing function until the final fight with Zeus.

2. Several moments in said fight show Atom stepping forward while punching, without Charles moving his feet at all.
 
1: The voice recognition device was destroyed during that fight iirc, so Charlie really doesn't have any other options.

2: PIS.

Thing is, none of that matters at this point because we have a bigger issue; Charlie can't outrun Michael because speed is equalized.
 
It's possible that Max could take control of Atom while Michael chases Charlie, and then chase after them using Atom.
 
And if Charlie saw Michael turn to him and raise his knife, I think he'd probably use Atom to do something about it.

But, in that case, Michael can't outrun Charlie either. How close he is to Charlie depends upon how close they were when they both started running.

1. The OP never specified whether or not he has it here, and it's standard equipment for Atom until the very end of the movie.

2. You don't have anything that contradicts this heavily enough for it to be PIS. We see a handful of times in which Charles and Atom are walking at the same time, and one instance in which Charles has to perform a very specific move that involves jumping in order for Atom to do the same. That's it.

3. You haven't even proven that Michael will last that long, let alone get away from Atom's constant beating the shit out of him long enough to actively pursue Charles at all.
 
BTW Michael has literally no way to know how to destroy the voice recognition and Atom has the Dura to take quite a few hits until it is destroyed

He fought Zeus for a full hour and got utterly pummeled before it broke.
 
1: "Atom is being controlled by Charles Kenton so Shadow Boxing is allowed"

Also, I highly doubt that after great success against Zeus, Charlie wouldn't go for Shadowboxing.

2: So...you're trying to say Shadowboxing actually isn't Shadowboxing? I'm so lost rn

Anyways, there are plenty of moments with Max (such as Atom's intro scene) where it's clear that Atom is mimicing his movements.

3: Good point.

Zeus didn't know how either.

Anyways, as of right now the voice recognition device is destroyed because of the fight you just mentioned. This isn't mid-movie Atom.

Even if the voice recognition still worked, I highly doubt Charlie would go for it considering how badly Zeus beat him last time he used it.
 
He actually did, since that's incredibly common amongst all robots.

No. SBA is them at their peak, Atom is at his strongest

Therefore, he has it.
 
If it takes an hour of being hit by a bot stronger than you to break the voice command, Atom will be fine.

Voice control was always Charlie's go to option for controlling Atom after they installed it and Max had to convince him to shadowbox. Michael is a pretty creepy guy with a knife so voice control would be the safer option considering Charlie would only see him as a random guy with a knife until he gets up from Atom smacking him.

Zeus only did it by virtue of being tall enough to punch Atom in the face with no issue. Michael is human sized. The top of his head would come up to Atom's shoulder.

After the initial screwup at the start of the match, he was doing perfectly fine against Zeus until the voice recognition was destroyed. The commentators even made repeated reference to the fact that Atom was holding his own.

Yes. "Shadow Boxing is allowed", not "Shadow Boxing is the only thing Atom has in this fight".

Strawman.

And? My argument is that Atom doesn't need to see someone walking forward in order to do so while the Shadowboxing feature is active. Which, as we see very clearly in the fight with Zeus, he doesn't.
 
How does Michael lose to this but can apparently put up a good fight against the Animatronics (notably ST) who is winning against Atom rn?
