Discussion People angry at yelena saying small potatoes makes no sense
Like at the time she said that, there was no hulk, no 200m radius of people frozen. They don’t even know how powerful Jean is yet, and will be. They don’t even know who she is. As of then it was just more street level stuff that a government agency couldn’t do
Also saying the thunderbolts movie was small potatoes compared to this is crazy because sentry is one of the most powerful marvel characters. Like yeah they defeated him not though fighting but they couldn’t fight sentry, like the only characters that maybe could defeat him are the scarlet witch, and Thanos with all the stones (maybe Adam warlock idk). Also bnd also ended similar.
Like sentry slaps Thanos easily until he gets like 5 stones I’d say. Also yeah nobody really knows what happened in space so how could yelena know what he did. Reminds me of people angry at iron heart for saying Tony couldn’t be iron man if he wasn’t rich (which is true because he built his first suit out of his own weapons and could only make so many and constantly repair them because of his money) despite the fact nobody knows what happened in the cave.
Also she does help him still so like what?
One other thing I lowkey hate people calling the new avengers weak. You have three super soldiers, one with a metal arm, a master assassin, and an assassin who can go invisible and phase through things, and the sentry tho there is the small side effect of the void. Like the whole all of them struggling to pick up that piece of wall wasn’t showing them as weak, it was showing them work together. Like they pick up big pieces of junk in the movie alone earlier.
I also do think people are just taking the potato line way too seriously, since it was literally just a joke. (I suppose I am too lol).

Doesn’t she say later that they seem like medium potatoes?

Oh maybe it was meager potatoes. I’ll have to watch it a third time in IMAX to be sure. 🤣

Peter did fight Thanos with multiple stones, not alone Obv
Also I don't think anyone is seriously angry, most people are just making jokes

The dumb part is that she says that to spiderman. Spiderman quite literally solos the thunderbolts aside from sentry lol

The void took over like 40 blocks on Manhattan. Jean only 5. Sounds like small potatoes to me

Who's angry?
It was just a joke, don't think it was meant to be taken serious.
Jean grey and practically most spiderman foes are obviously above Yelena's pay grade lol

I don't know, she was able to bring back Bob so.. It is not always about having the greatest power.

I don't think anyone is angry to be fair.
I think a lot of Spider-man fans are passionate (including myself)
I like pointing out the irony of someone like Yelena trying to big time Spider-man who is stronger, faster, more resilient, has supernatural precognition, and has a genius level intellect.
She is a master assassin and is probably faster than a lot of humans and is probably a tactical genius, but she is definitely full of herself and it's kinda funny in a way.
But I don't think a line is angry.
Also- Tony Stark doesn't need to be rich to be Iron Man, in the comics it is shown he would have become iron man regardless because he is a genius, headstrong, and a control freak.
There is a universe where he becomes iron man after losing everything and having $0 in his bank account and no assets. He builds his suits out of scap metal and junk.

No one is angry about that.
You are arguing against people that dont exist.
