Favreau or Abrams?

I compared the 2 recent Star Wars producers/directors: Jon Favreau and JJ Abrams on Wikipedia.

They're the same age.
Abrams dies his hair. Favreau does not.
Abrams was the son of TV producers (hence his TV/movie connections and opportunities).
Favreau was the son of an elementary school teacher and a Special Education teacher and had no TV/movie connections.

It is interesting to compare the quality/nature of their contributions.
Abrams is slick, empty and facile whereas Favreau has heart.

Hot Toys - Marvel vs DC

I've liked many of the Marvel films for almost a decade now; starting with Iron Man (2008). DC movies are more recent, but I've really got into those too.

It is interesting to compare Iron Man and Batman. In comic terms, Iron Man is a second stringer. Before The Ultimates in 2002 Iron Man was seriously uncool. By contrast, Batman became cool in 1986 with Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. Batman is a big gun compared to Iron Man. One of the top 3 in the DC universe.

Neither Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne have superpowers. Stark uses high tech weaponry whilst Wayne combines insane athleticism, martial arts skill and technology.

The Hot Toys figures are funny. Both are 1/6 scale. I can't display Marvel alongside DC. Marvel just looks feeble e.g. Armoured Batman looks immense and hulking compared to Iron Man.
