I absolutely LOVED this line from the old X-Men cartoon: Senator Kelly: "You're supposed to protect humans from mutants"! Master Mold: "That is illogical, mutants ARE humans! Therefore humans have to be protected from THEMSELVES"!
Same dude, my buddy got Disney + and I started watching the old 90’s xmen and spiderman cartoons etc., those shows were too good for us to fully appreciate as kids, truly a comics cartoon golden era!!
Fun Fact: The reason "Nimrod" is synonymous with "idiot" is because of Bugs Bunny. In old Loony Tunes Cartoons, Bugs Bunny sarcastically compared Elmer Fudd to Nimrod, who was a legendary hunter referenced in the Bible. However, not enough people understood the reference, and just assumed Nimrod was just another word for idiot, since Elmer Fudd was such an incompetent hunter. The lesson to be learned from this is that Bugs Bunny > The Bible.
@@ManiaMac1613 yes, no one really gets the archetypal hunter meme in Elmer Fudd. It was probably understood by the adults whom watch WB cartoons back then. They were originally designed for Adult consumption. Then, the kids would hear of that Nimrod before they read of the biblical Nimrod.
The best part? The meaning of "nimrod" that most people know is from Bugs Bunny making fun of Elmer Fudd. He called Elmer Fudd "a real Nimrod" (Nimrod in the Bible was a great and mighty hunter). So the common meaning of "nimrod" is literally because Bugs Bunny made a Biblical reference in a joke that just flew over peoples' heads.
The sentinels in the days of future past x men movie was pretty damn powerful in the future timeline, they were basically mini Nimrods running around. They were hella scary for robots to be honest.
Massively weaker tho. All they could do was adapt, make hand blades and shoot fusion blasts. You're selling Nimord short lol. They would be bots to him under his control.
@@IamNeloAngelo Wrong. They could heal themselves, absorb mutant powers and sync those powers with each other. One sentinel absorbed a power and could apply it and so could the other sentinels without having absorbed that power themselves.
@TimmyTurnerArmwrestling they didn't show having any type of self-repair capabilities. There was one that lost its arm....it didn't "heal". Also even though they share data doesn't mean they could just transfer power between each other either as that was not shown. Similar to a Rinnie-Link type deal from Naruto.
Nimrod will always be one of my favorite characters. Took on the Hellfire Club, X-Men at the same time and almost won. Knocked out the Juggernaut in seconds. He became sucky when he fused with Master Mold and Bastion. I think the problem was he was *too* powerful, and the writers were going to start having trouble figuring out ways to stop him, because you could never beat him the same way twice (he was sort of like Doomsday...each time he was defeated, he came back with the ability to counter whatever defeated him).
Nimrod should make in appearance in a future MCU movie when the X Men movies come out and they do a Marvel Universe crossover being Days Of Future Past and let’s be honest Marvel should’ve waited for Civil War and Infinity War because having all of the heroes and villains that were involved in the story would’ve been cool let’s be honest seeing X Men,Silver Surfer,Ghost Rider,Blade,Fantastic Four,Nova,Captain Marvel all appear in this movie would be awesome also Namor The Submariner
What hit's me the most is that when he says that Sentinels took over North America he says, not only the US, also Canada... and I'm here like.. Mexico is also from North America...
Theoretically speaking tho, there were two sides, one for Mutant Registration one not. When the side that was for registration, didn't get registration, they said, "ah well, time for Order 66"
That's exactly some laws work. They don't necessarily need to make sense or be ethical, enough supreme judges just need to vote them, or a parliament and the president need to agree on making them constitutional etc. If they leave undefined areas in the law you can bet all your savings they'll be abused in the most ridiculous way possible. It happens in real life all the time.
I remember Nimrod, he reminded me a lot of how A.M.A.Z.O. was re-imagined in Justice League Unlimited (which came years later, of course), and also Ultron obviously (who did the 'always reform' thing as well).
Nimrod terrified me as a kid just because in the old X-men cartoon when he first appeared Rachael yelled "Oh my god, it's Nimrod" in such a terrified way that it shook me lol. The voice acting on that show was so great.
The best way to describe Nimrod as kid reading the comics was "stressful." There was a sense of dread for who every ran into a Nimrod Sentinel. When he shows up, you know they got a big problem on their hands. This is how you do an overpowered villain.
The Sentinels in Days of Future Past movie were the deadliest and scariest of them all. If I were a mutant. I would kill myself or flee from earth than facing them
They should have make them disappear with portals or I would hack headquarters for reprogramming, I'm waiting for screening rant to do the movie review, bone claws are tight ! 😂
@@enonymuz8627 yeah but for example they are made of metal, magneto would easily defeat them and if they changed their molecular structure to plastic or ceramic, Colossus or strong mutant would hit them hard enough to destroy them
It's funny you bring up The Fury and how similar Nimrod is to it. The story goes that the only reason Nimrod exists/was created for the comics was because Alan Moore, in typical Alan Moore fashion, wouldn't let anyone else play with his toys. Back in The Trial of Magneto, we had Sir James Jaspers involved -- The Fury was supposed to emerge during the trial and set Jaspers up as a big bad for Claremont's ongoing X-Men book. Alan Moore threw a fit, leading to the story being neutered (Fenris was the enemy instead) and Claremont and Co going back to the drawing board, which lead to Nimrod being created.
Sorry, mistake there -- Jaspers was going to be established as a human villain in The Trial, but the Fury, along with Mad Jim, were going to appear at some point later, maybe the Mutant Massacre, somebody's comment reminded me of it.
"Assuming this video garners enough people to watch it anyways." Rob, we're simple people. We see comics explained pop up on our phone, we click it and let the buttery smoothness of your voice soothe us with tales of yore.
I get the feeling no matter what even without Mothermold Somehow Nimrod will Appear in the past. Time travel from Portal Plants from Krokoa or something.
i would believe should they fight and ultron would be defeated in wtv body, we would transfer his AI and control nimrod like how he took over a planet of synthetic life forms near Kree space (i think that was the story)
I imagine the sentinels analyzed Hulk's powers and realized his strength was augmented by his anger and hit him with some type of gas, sleep agent, or any other thing that would curb anger. Once the hulk was no longer angry or could get angry... they would would just kill him. That's the screwed up thing about the hulk. He's so powerful that his weakness has to be something stupid. Like Martian Manhunter is weak to fire. If the Hulk can't get angry... He's done. Let's tickle him to death. Laughing gas or something that screws with his emotions. I know that idea hurts hulk fan boys feelings cause they don't want anything to be able to stop the hulk. But That's how the sentry was always able to just make the hulk docile in the past... He would just simply make him not angry, but that couldn't be done to world breaker hulk. The hulk was just too angry, and angry with purpose and reason other than just angry for something trivial like "wanting to be left alone". Plus the sentry wanted to cut loose on someone anyway. But yes... The joker could probably release his toxic laughing gas on the hulk and leave him blissfully dead with a smile on his face. Sorry fan boys. Lol It's funny and ironic, that in the past, the hulk probably never wants to be the hulk. When he would turn into the hulk he would always want to be "left alone". Because being left alone would allow his anger to subside and allow him to return back to being banner. But not leaving him alone kept him raging and getting stronger. He just wanted to be left alone, turn back to banner, and go be with Betty.
People thought they killed the Hulk before but he typically gets better. Even in recent times they killed the Hulk before Civil War 2, killed him while he was Banner with his powers suppressed... he just came back stronger his current running comic is literally called "The Immortal Hulk" They'd be better off sedating him and keeping him that way than trying to kill him.
Eluminary Xarrais exactly. The second most powerful ability of the hulk is his healing factor. I looked up some of his feats and some of them far surpass Wolverine levels of regen...
Could Nimrod actually beat (comic book) Ultron though? If Ultron could take over the phalanx, I imagine he would have no trouble taking over Nimrod. Also Thor has enough power to stagger a celestial. Thor has the power, the hammer just allows him to channel and focus it. Also Thor could just use the hammer to thrust Nimrod into another dimension. Last thing... I understand what you're doing but you tend to compare Comic versions to MCU versions. That's not exactly fair. If Thor, hulk, Ultron, etc.. are toned down in the MCU, chances are Nimrod, the sentry, the one above all, etc... Would be toned down if introduced into the MCU as well.
NIimrod can be beat when he does he just ports out and recovers then comes back stronger using what he learned from his defeat.Cable basically turned him into molecules then used his t.k to even SPREAD those out. Still came back
Please he's the living Embodiment of plot armour if he needs to do something Hill suddenly gain the ability to do so although considering that he's a robot I'm surprised he hasn't run hypothetical scenarios in his brain or whatever and prepared for possible occurrences get a counter to as many things as you can before you encounter them kind of thing as he has sentience to a degree he should be able to think for himself and prepare and if that was the case then he would be even harder to kill
They could defeat him if Tony was to work on some type of malware virus to shut him down. That’s never been tried before. It would require tricking Nimrod to connect to a computer
Also really appreciate the content I dont even have the money or time to realisticly see all the content I get to on your channel. I like hearing multiple opinions of others so hearing yours and reading commenters is definetly a plus as well keep it up man!
Whipping out this fairly obscure character; you gotta do a video about the High Evolutionary, Rob. On a more on point not, Nimrod is basically Marvel's version of Amazo. Both were down well in the X-men Animated series and Justice League/Unlimited respectively.
A.M.A.Z.O was also done surprisingly well for its first live action appearance, in the Arrowverse crossover *Elseworlds* ... it was also the first live action appearance of John Dee/Doctor Destiny, before he showed up again in the *Sandman*
Nimrod in history was the King of Babylon, and leader of the Pagan God's (Marvel fans would know a few as Odin, Thor, Loki) and was the creator of Yuletide, which after the Crusades became Christmas to appease Norsemen and women who were reluctant to convert to Christianity. His face is on ancient Babylonian coins
I love the Nimrod, character since he first appeared in the X-men! Selene called him a "mighty hunter" and he is. Imagine a super-computer/robot, that can analyze any opponent and reconfigure his structure into weapons that can neutralize or destroy his target. And he's basically indestructible because he has total control over his cellular structure. He essentially was kicking the crap out of the Juggernaut, the X-men and the Hellfire Club combined until Rogue absorbed all the x-men's powers and put him down. Would love to see Marvel writers put him up against some of the other Marvel heroes like Avengers or Fantastic Four or even against some villains like Doom or Apocalypse. What a fight!
Rob. I notice you like those tank type characters like Hulk, Thanos and Apocalypse because you tend to way overestimate them. Nimrod could easily just absorb the gamma radiation coming off Hulk to depower him.
Oh I miss those comics. Chris Claremont and John Romita Jr. did such awesome work with the Nimrod story line. The fight with Nimrod and The Hellfire Club gave it to him.
I had that comic in the 80's when he appeared and fought the Xmen and Hellfire club. He blasted Rachel Summers, but Spiral transported her to another dimension as Nimrod was blasting her. And Nimrod was masking as a human and staying with a lady who had a son. The comic was way ahead of its time!
Good Grief! I actually remember buying & reading this at the time. I thought it was a convoluted mess then & still do. Basically an unstoppable McGuffin that would take someone yielding the Power Cosmic to defeat.
The future sentinels in Days of Future Past film are composite characters, combination of the regularly Sentinels from the comics (made much faster and agile in the movie) with Nimrod's adaptive ability.
Like granting wish? Having a hot tempered sister, have a nephew and niece which is a twin? And have a british butler like everybody else with a butler?
Nimrod is the first villain I remember from my first X-Men comics. I even made a custom LEGO mini back when I was like 11 haha. I always knew he was OP
Why would you think that Nimrod would waste time trying to match the level of strength with someone like Hulk? Nimrod would probably just neutralize the gamma radiation long enough to incinerate Bruce Banner. Nimrod doesn't wage war for combat sake, His function seems to be neutralizing threats.... which he does horrifyingly well.
MUTHAFUKIN AZMO GOLD!!!!! YEEESSSS!!!! That was the awesomest momment...he becomes sooi far beyond God-like...he immediately leaves the planet....galaxy...the universe....because Superman and every one else would just be like frying some micro-organisms with a Gamma Ray Burst...💯 ...excellent refrence...
CoolRelax Turkishblends that would be dope asf lmao 😂but Amazo gold would decimate Nimrod he fought 8 gods and stole their powers that’s how he even became gold. But ya Gold Amazo definitely for the win lol
Hey Rob, just letting you know Grant Morrison has a comic out there of a Santa claus as a murdering warrior with a big sword. Would be great for a holiday vid, also thanks for always putting up great videos
I'm a marvel unlimited guy so I'm always a few months behind but this issue was on it last week and WOW! That's why I love Hickman and I'm a X-Men fan til I die. I'm worried that the phalanx part will never be a part of it but I'm hopeful he nails it before he moves on. Thanks Rob by the way! I grew up keeping my love of comics to myself for dumb reasons but seeing your videos and channel grow had made me feel that I'm alright and always have been. You're more than a legend, you're a marvel!
This is embarrassing, I left this comment on the wrong video 😅 but it was the recent Nimrod issue (recent for me haha) and my point stands cos I love this retrospective into the character.
Tyler Spence nimrod is from before the flood. Most of the characters in comics are based on ancient beings that are mentioned in the Bible, but the masses have no clue.
Nimrod is an awesome villain. Love the fact that he originally was displaced from a future time due to Kulan Gath's transformation of NYC in an amazing X-men storyline. Would like to see Marvel writers throw him up against other hero teams like the FF or the Avengers.

Please he's the living Embodiment of plot armour if he needs to do something Hill suddenly gain the ability to do so although considering that he's a robot I'm surprised he hasn't run hypothetical scenarios in his brain or whatever and prepared for possible occurrences get a counter to as many things as you can before you encounter them kind of thing as he has sentience to a degree he should be able to think for himself and prepare and if that was the case then he would be even harder to kill
Ah, the most powerful armor...
He will use it to shield his doing
Indeed he can.
but can he stop Constantine
Imagine Vision gets a Nimrod's body. That will be a dope story line.
arent the future sentinels from the movie basically Nimrod
Yup they was a Nimrod army
they were so scary
@@SonnyBCreative agreed those things were terrifying looking
it was looking better too, scarier with dark alien looking than pink robot
Nimrod is an Sentinal from Bishop's time in the future
They could defeat him if Tony was to work on some type of malware virus to shut him down. That’s never been tried before. It would require tricking Nimrod to connect to a computer
Just have nimrod download a song from limewire boom hes dead
Supremmo wouldn’t he just analyze the virus on the computer before he connected to it?
Deon Hollins Not if it’s disguised as an antivirus program
Tony sends him a spam email 📧 that’s looks legit and Nimrod opens it by mistake...infected, game over!😂
Negative human.....Lord Nimrod would detect the virus before connecting & prepare for an anti adaptation resequencing contingency plan
Also really appreciate the content I dont even have the money or time to realisticly see all the content I get to on your channel. I like hearing multiple opinions of others so hearing yours and reading commenters is definetly a plus as well keep it up man!
Whipping out this fairly obscure character; you gotta do a video about the High Evolutionary, Rob.
On a more on point not, Nimrod is basically Marvel's version of Amazo. Both were down well in the X-men Animated series and Justice League/Unlimited respectively.
A.M.A.Z.O was also done surprisingly well for its first live action appearance, in the Arrowverse crossover *Elseworlds* ... it was also the first live action appearance of John Dee/Doctor Destiny, before he showed up again in the *Sandman*
His name could a reference to the biblical Nimrod who is said to be "A mighty hunter before the lord."
To powerful for the MCU: Mr Poppers Penguins
U are hilarious😂
ViBe Is Like thanks 😂
The Sentinels in the "Days for Future Past" movie were basically Nimrod with their hyper adaptability.
Not quite Nimrod
Nimrod in history was the King of Babylon, and leader of the Pagan God's (Marvel fans would know a few as Odin, Thor, Loki) and was the creator of Yuletide, which after the Crusades became Christmas to appease Norsemen and women who were reluctant to convert to Christianity. His face is on ancient Babylonian coins
Yes sir...you are the only person with a great comment lol. It's all based on these (lights holders)
I enjoy your content, especially the lore side of it. I enjoy marvel comics and this is the first place I go for that content.
I heard a ding around 2:13 and thought someone was texting me lol
Toxic Ear5 slow down the video and check the bottom left corner at that part lol
Danny Svetlick I did lol
Thnks guys
Storm’s arctic cold/ frost/ ice has naturalized Nimrod.
Too powerful for MCU: Revolutionary Cyclops
Who???? 🤔🤔🤔
You need mutants for that to work in the first place...
😂
@@midwings00 You need Mutants for Nimrod to be a thing in the first place
He had a growing army.
I love the Nimrod, character since he first appeared in the X-men! Selene called him a "mighty hunter" and he is. Imagine a super-computer/robot, that can analyze any opponent and reconfigure his structure into weapons that can neutralize or destroy his target. And he's basically indestructible because he has total control over his cellular structure. He essentially was kicking the crap out of the Juggernaut, the X-men and the Hellfire Club combined until Rogue absorbed all the x-men's powers and put him down. Would love to see Marvel writers put him up against some of the other Marvel heroes like Avengers or Fantastic Four or even against some villains like Doom or Apocalypse. What a fight!
You forgot Nimrod learns from every fight. That truly make him Savage
He specially shines in X-men TAS episodes: One man's worth.
Nimrod did sort of end up in the X-Men DoFP film, the ones from the future are all nameless versions of Nimrod, which made them so dangerous
Rob. I notice you like those tank type characters like Hulk, Thanos and Apocalypse because you tend to way overestimate them. Nimrod could easily just absorb the gamma radiation coming off Hulk to depower him.
Oh I miss those comics. Chris Claremont and John Romita Jr. did such awesome work with the Nimrod story line. The fight with Nimrod and The Hellfire Club gave it to him.
Too powerful for the MCU: Squirrel Girl. 😒
Infinity War would be over in 5 minutes if she was there.
Ask rick and morty about the squirrels..they are not to be messed with!
been years since I've been on your channel ...finally one of my favorite villains nimrod getting some love . great vid Rob
And there it is. The Mad Jim Jaspers plug.
I had that comic in the 80's when he appeared and fought the Xmen and Hellfire club. He blasted Rachel Summers, but Spiral transported her to another dimension as Nimrod was blasting her. And Nimrod was masking as a human and staying with a lady who had a son. The comic was way ahead of its time!
Good Grief! I actually remember buying & reading this at the time. I thought it was a convoluted mess then & still do. Basically an unstoppable McGuffin that would take someone yielding the Power Cosmic to defeat.
The Power Cosmic would have to be a sentiment being incarnate of The Power Cosmic....💯
.....weeeeeeerrrrrdddd.....👍
Marvel Comics inspired me on so many levels I cant even begin to explain. Its just awesome .
*_I wish Nimrod memes should become well-known than Thanos memes._*
"More"?
Try that again.
Say WHAT?????? Check your typing, dude... no clue what you tried to write...
Cool, learn to speak though, then comment
Little known fact, the house cat wrote that comment.
The first time I heard of this guy was from
Marvel snap lol
He is in the Xmen cartoon
Endgames time travel functions much like here in Days of Future Past
The future sentinels in Days of Future Past film are composite characters, combination of the regularly Sentinels from the comics (made much faster and agile in the movie) with Nimrod's adaptive ability.
Time to reconsider Ur comments on Nimrod vs apocalypse after House of X
I love watching all your videos man..
In the movie every Sentinel was nemrod, and they were terrifying.
They really were. Fox nailed the design and feel of the sentinels, even upgraded the idea
Nimrod was a legendary Hunter and king from ancient times
Marvel snap players incoming
Nimrod is in marvel strikeforce
Marvel Contest of Champions
here because of Marvel Snap Days of Future Past season.. no wonder they picked those cards!
Everyone remembers Nimrod...from an awesome story
👀
Like granting wish? Having a hot tempered sister, have a nephew and niece which is a twin? And have a british butler like everybody else with a butler?
Just stumbled across this channel/series. Great stuff!
You’re voice is Neil Degrasse Tyson and the doctor from Simpsons
Nimrod is the first villain I remember from my first X-Men comics. I even made a custom LEGO mini back when I was like 11 haha. I always knew he was OP
Mexico is North America as well 🤷🏼♂️
Nope
@@mech-dragon1445 it is tho
Why would you think that Nimrod would waste time trying to match the level of strength with someone like Hulk?
Nimrod would probably just neutralize the gamma radiation long enough to incinerate Bruce Banner. Nimrod doesn't wage war for combat sake, His function seems to be neutralizing threats.... which he does horrifyingly well.
Amazo vs Nimrod
That would be epic
3:12 Can't unsee Wolverine pissing on the button to call the elevator
Nimrod vrs Amzo gold JLA cartoon version. What say you...
Nimrod doesn't stand a chance :3
MUTHAFUKIN AZMO GOLD!!!!! YEEESSSS!!!!
That was the awesomest momment...he becomes sooi far beyond God-like...he immediately leaves the planet....galaxy...the universe....because Superman and every one else would just be like frying some micro-organisms with a Gamma Ray Burst...💯
...excellent refrence...
CoolRelax Turkishblends that would be dope asf lmao 😂but Amazo gold would decimate Nimrod he fought 8 gods and stole their powers that’s how he even became gold. But ya Gold Amazo definitely for the win lol
Hey Rob, just letting you know Grant Morrison has a comic out there of a Santa claus as a murdering warrior with a big sword. Would be great for a holiday vid, also thanks for always putting up great videos
Yeah boy! I didn't miss out on your sexy voice
Oh god, please don't encourage this. All jokes eventually get old when they've been spammed for years.
This video was excellent please do a follow up video on Bastion cause he was pretty important during 2nd Coming.
So between Nimrod, The Super Adaptoid and DC’s Amazo who is the better bot?
Amazo, more potential.
i was thinking the same thing
Arthur Souza how does he have more potential?
You just had to ask that.#$%&#% you
throw the fury in this match too
Great vid man.
Can you please do one on the Shi'ar Imperial Guard?
in what world is an android beating world breaker ..... that's just an amazing bit of plot amour right there mate!
Dude! I've totally been waiting for you to talk about Nimrod!!!! I always wondered why nobody brought this dude up! Thanks man!
Rob pls tell me where to submit fan art? This is probably the 100th time I'm asking u
Using youtube comments to communicate 4Head
Spud Matix
Go to the About section of RUclips, and check the website. I'm sure there's an email address for submissions.
@@CorbCorbin thanks so much good sir, hope I get through
@@IKMCG omg get a life child
@@spudmatix8770 no skills makes pissy
I'm a marvel unlimited guy so I'm always a few months behind but this issue was on it last week and WOW! That's why I love Hickman and I'm a X-Men fan til I die. I'm worried that the phalanx part will never be a part of it but I'm hopeful he nails it before he moves on.
Thanks Rob by the way! I grew up keeping my love of comics to myself for dumb reasons but seeing your videos and channel grow had made me feel that I'm alright and always have been. You're more than a legend, you're a marvel!
This is embarrassing, I left this comment on the wrong video 😅 but it was the recent Nimrod issue (recent for me haha) and my point stands cos I love this retrospective into the character.
Isnt nimrod from the bible?
Tyler Spence nimrod is from before the flood. Most of the characters in comics are based on ancient beings that are mentioned in the Bible, but the masses have no clue.
@Tyler Spence Actually, I think Nimrod predates the Bible but the authors of the Bible stole the Nimrod character from earlier stories.
the AGNOSTIC formerly known as incomprehensible14 no Nimrod is in the Bible he’s in Genesis
Yes he is
Nimrod is an awesome villain. Love the fact that he originally was displaced from a future time due to Kulan Gath's transformation of NYC in an amazing X-men storyline. Would like to see Marvel writers throw him up against other hero teams like the FF or the Avengers.
