Title: Wood Man=Leaf Man
Post by: TheDoc on September 01, 2011, 01:36:33 AM
I know this sounds REEEEEALLY stupid, but don't you think Wood Man could easily have been named Leaf Man? Just think about it: both his attacks are all leaves, and the weapon you get has leaf in the name. It doesn't really matter, but it's been on my mind.

IT'S A CONSPIRACY, I TELL YOU, LEAF MAN FOR MM11
Yeah, this is sorta obvious.  I think they called him Wood-Man because he's...y'know...a tree.

So should Gutsman be named Super Man? or Arm Man?
Title: Re: Wood Man=Leaf Man
Post by: TheDoc on September 01, 2011, 01:57:13 AM
Well, I think they named him Gutsman because Rockman was taken by you-know-who, otherwise his name would probably be Rockman and his weapon Rock Throw. Heaven knows how the heck they came up with Gutsman.

By this logic:
Shade Man > Noise Man/Crush Man
Spring Man > Coil Man/Wild Man
Cloud Man > Thunder Man/Bolt Man
Turbo Man > Scorch Man/Burning Man/Wheel Man
Burst Man > Wrap Man/Danger Man
Galaxy Man > Black Hole Man/Bomb Man OH WAIT
Splash Woman > Laser Woman/Trident Woman
Dark Man > Doesn't get a name because he DOESN'T HAVE A WEAPON.
Enker > Mirror
Punk > Screw/Crusher
Pump Man > Water Man
Tengu Man > Hold Man/Tornado M-OH WAIT
Dynamo Man > Lightnig Man
Astro Man > Copy Man(&Bass)
Cold Man > Ice Man/Wall Man
Pirate Man > Remote Man/Mine Man
Ground Man > Spread Man/Drill M-HMMMMMM
Pretty much everyone in MM&B2.

They don't need to be named after their weapon. They're named after what they are.

I see the misunderstanding. I'm not trying to say every boss should be associated with their weapons, I'm just saying that Woodman's weapon has the word leaf in it, along with leaf attacks. Even if the weapon was called Wood Shield, I'd still think his name should be changed to Leafman because it forms leaves around him. Crusher sounds like a cool name, though.  :p

That didn't stop them from making Stone Man.

Also, Gutsman is not completely defined by "rocks." He is a construction worker.

Wood Man is made of wood. If he were Leaf Man, he would be made of leaves.

"Guts Man" throws rocks. He could have been named Stone Man, but they decided against that. Four games later, we get Stone Man.

"Shadow Man" throws blades and shurikens everywhere. Wouldn't he be renamed Blade Man or Shuriken Man?

"Shade Man" is a vampire, not a shadow. He's not called "Dracula Man" or "Vampire Man."

Do you see my point?

sure hornet man is a gigantic cluster of hornets HMMMMMM

No, Wood Man being made of wood doesn't mean he can't be Leaf Man. See the 6 fanmade Leaf Men.

But if they used Leaf instead of Wood, the fanbase will turn insane and feature more Wood Men than even Dragon Men because wood is such a common name. See Chill Men/Women.

Guts Man makes me think he should have intestines spilling out everywhere, even though he's a robot

No not necessarily look: Drill man> he's weapon a driller> he's Body a Drill?........ then, Plant man>he's weapon a plant circle> he's body not a plant but a plant head. See some of the robots are what they are called and their weapons too  :) and not only those two:Skull Man, Top Man.....many others.......

that doesn't mean all of them should!
woodman doesn't actually have any leaves on his design, so being called leaf man would make the stage select seem off.

hornetman is the only unfitting name really, and thats only because he seems to be designed after a honeybee more than a hornet, hornets do not make honeycombs (and hornetmans chest is a giant honeycomb), niether do they pollenate flowers.
but hornetman sounds alot more badass than beeman, and he is one of my favourite robot masters.

gutsman wasn't made for just lifting boulders, in his normal line of work he probably lifed other large objects, afterall, he is a robot made for construction.

Most people probably know already,but the reason behind this is because hornet man was supposed to be the 2nd female robot master:Honey woman

While Wood man doesn't have leaves on his design, he is a source of leaves, so the name might work.
Kind of how Heat man is a source of heat, and isn't instead called 'Lighter man' simply because of his appearance.
Title: Re: Wood Man=Leaf Man
Post by: brotoad on September 02, 2011, 09:55:45 PM
when someone is based on a lighter, it's obvious they will produce heat. not so much with woodman, its kind of like saying a wooden chair might produce leaves, especially when woodman seems to be based more on a tree stump/log than an actual living tree.

infact, treeman would be a better name than leafman. mainly because tree will let you know he is made of wood.

but i think woodman has a better ring to it than leafman or treeman

Hornet Man is my Third Favorite Robot Master: If he were any different, he wouldn't be badass anymore.

Hornet Man for the win! His theme music contains so much win

On topic, Concrete Man should totally be called C. Shot Man  :lol:

Tornado Man -> Blow Man

Well, yeah, but pretty much all discussion about it was over.

On the actual topic, I prefer the name "Splash Woman." Not sure why.

There is no set criteria for what a bump is. It depends on the subject and the reasoning behind the bump.

Discussion over and done with. 2 weeks later someone posts on the same subject we all just finished. I consider that a bump. 14 days = 2 weeks.

If Capcom made Hard Man,I have a VERY ODD thought that they'll make...*sigh*,a Hot Man.

Hard Man is hard man because he's a giant cement mixer.
Title: Re: Wood Man=Leaf Man
Post by: Elec Wolf on September 18, 2011, 09:33:23 PM
Then why is Hard Man named Hard Man?He should be named Cement Man or something.
Title: Re: Wood Man=Leaf Man
Post by: Korby on September 18, 2011, 09:35:31 PM
Because Cement is hard, and so is his plating.

Hard is also an adjective for a sexually aroused male. So it's funny.
