Raiders of the Lost Ark - This is an amazing read on the thought process between George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Lawrence Kasdan as they talk through the concepts of this amazing film. It's practically peering into the thought process of some of the most influential film makers of our day. And amazingly, shows how creative Lucas was.

Can’t Spidey dodge lightspeed things? I’m with him.
JoJo team stomps hard. Marvel team has nothing to deal with the time hax.

“JoJo team stomps hard. Marvel team has nothing to deal with the time hax.”

Why? None of them have time-stop and Kira’s time-hax is useless in this battle.

Is it just me, or are there a lot more posters on BankGambling lately? Aside from the regulars i mean.

@Takoe
Do they have any full time stops?

“Do they have any full time stops?”

No, the best they have is Diavolo time-skipping ability:

Sure hope that there is more. I love when people have discussion here.
@Rookie
Because they can’t deal with King Crimson’s timeskip and precog.
Imagine this: Spiderman tries to kick Diavolo’s head off. King Crimson sees this coming, activates his ability and skips time. Diavolo is unharmed by the kick and King Crimson has positioned himself so he can royally screw up spidey’s day.
Not to mention that they can’t even see or damage the stands.
@Takoe
–
“Not to mention that they can’t even see or damage the stands.”
–
To make it fair let’s allow Spidey and Gambit to see stands.
Iam pretty sure that they both saw ghosts at some points in comics and stands are similar to ghosts.
–
“and King Crimson has positioned himself so he can royally screw up spidey’s day.”
–
And Spidey dodges and attacks again. It is possible to hurt Diavolo even despite time-skip. He does make mistakes.
Another example of Diavolo’s abilities:

“And Spidey dodges and attacks again. It is possible to hurt Diavolo even despite time-skip. He does make mistakes.”
‘cept he doesn’t because removing several seconds from time is confusing as hell if you don’t know what is going on.
And then there’s a perpetually pissed off stand behind him.
img.batoto.net/comics/2012/10/24/j/read50887533322af/img000081.jpg
And then there’s an arm through his chest.
img.batoto.net/comics/2012/10/22/j/read5085c9f555a0f/img000021.jpg
His speed is also listed as A, which is the same as Star Platinum, The World and Silver Chariot, which are all ftl either by feats or word of god.

“‘cept he doesn’t because removing several seconds from time is confusing as hell if you don’t know what is going on.”

True, but Spiderman have spider-sense which is a good “precog”. To him battle against Diavolo will be more like a battle against teleporter.
@Rookie
Most likely this will happen:

What happens is that the moment time is stopped being erased King Crimson karate chopped that dude’s head in half. Reflexes don’t matter when there is literally no time to react.
Alternatively Kira introduces himself and actives Bites the Dust, blowing them to crap from the inside whilst stuck in a time loop.
My money is on team JoJo, I mean after while most if not all stands are FTL in speed, so gambit gets blitzed and then spidey is left to get demolished
“Imagine this: Spiderman tries to kick Diavolo’s head off. King Crimson sees this coming, activates his ability and skips time. ”
–
Spiderman has precog too. Good enough to help him consistently dodge light speed attacks.
So how fast is team 1? in terms of actual movement speed.
–
“‘cept he doesn’t because removing several seconds from time is confusing as hell if you don’t know what is going on.”
–
He’d figure out what’s going on eventually. Peter is a genius after all, and has fought reality warpers before.
So, how quickly can team 1 actually kill Peter?
–
“, I mean after while most if not all stands are FTL in speed,”
–
Proof of this?
–
“Reflexes don’t matter when there is literally no time to react.”
–
Why are you ignoring that Peter has precog?
@Ragnorke
How far does the precog go and how does it work?
–
The stand users themselves aren’t all that special. Just barely comic peak human. The stands, however, are fairly extreme.
When they were introduced the author made profiles for each stand to explain what they did because he was afraid people wouldn’t get them. (Which they still don’t in case of King Crimson.)
These profiles contain stats ranging from A to E, with A very good and E being very bad.
Star Platinum and The World both have an A in speed and are stated in their profiles to be ftl. Silver Chariot, another stand with A rank speed, cut apart a stand called the hanged man who can travel via light between reflective objects, making him ftl as well and proving that stands who are A ranked in speed are ftl or at least very close to it.

Silver Chariot:vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/b/b5/SilverChariot_05.png/revision/latest?cb=20150217155906
King Crimson has an A in both speed and Destructive Power, while Killer Queen has a B and an A.
The punches of stands with a B in Destructive Power can be compared to an extremely fast, small meteor.
–
I ignored Peter’s precog since I have no idea how it works, which makes me incapable of saying anything meaningful in regards to it aside from that he has it.
@Takoe
–
Kira’s Killer Queen speed was stated to be B, yet KQ was able to keep up with Josuke’s Crazy Diamond who have A in speed and actually outspeed Jotaro’s Star Platinum in battle.
I don’t think that there is big difference between A and B speed stat in JJBA.
–
“The stand users themselves aren’t all that special. Just barely comic peak human.”
–
They have far better reflexes than peak human. They control stands after all.
@Rookie
–
True on both accounts. I forgot that their speed is fairly outrageous too. Joseph, Ceasar and Kars can easily be argued to be ftl. Not sure about the others though.
