my opinion is that we should bring back sword duelling but be more explicitly homoerotic about it this time
My thoughts on Korra book 1 antagonist:
My biggest issue with Amon/Noatak is that he is a waterbender/bloodbender, he’s trying to convince people that benders, of which he is one, are evil and oppressive. Yet he is only concerned with his own power and control over those very same nonbenders. His ideology had no consistency behind it. And worse, his status as a bender undercuts the entire Equalist movement and does irreparable damage to any honest discussion of the treatment of nonbenders in Republic City. I don’t like that people keep mentioning that Amon was in favor of protecting nonbenders even though he basically murdered his right hand (the Lieutenant) using bloodbending. Also we see no proof of any systematic oppression of nonbenders.
Imo, I think it would’ve been interesting if Amon was a delusional nonbender who convinced other his followers that they’re oppressed even though they’re actually the oppressers, because in Atla we see many instances of benders being the oppressed (the air nomad genocide, the freeedom fighters attempted attack...), maybe he can even use the fire Nation history of war to his side and spreading propaganda because even though the air nomads history of being discriminated against by other nations the still tried to exterminate the last airbenders in the world.
I think Korra’s fear of her bending being taken away should still be present but by having Amon faking taking other people’s bending to his followers, perhaps in the form of chi blocking, because he can just lock them up after the spectacle is over so the word gets spread around about him being a threat.
Also, Amon the nonbenders being delusional about their oppression would give a better sense of fear and the movement being more of a cult and a social threat, because let’s face it, most oppressers have a victim complex and a longing to find “their people”.

Fire lord Zuko, after a small inconvenience: I’m stepping down, Appa is fire lord now
Sokka, not looking up from his breakfast: I don’t think you should trust him with that kind of power, he’s super corrupt.
Don’t panic
The Boiling Rock Episode
what was the first show y’all broke up with…you know like the first show you had that was your everything for a good amount of time and then it fucked up so bad that like you felt your heart breaking with sadness, disappointment and hurt and then you vowed never to see it again? i’ll start mine was shame/ess
Lost. I knew in season 3 they weren’t going to answer questions or make sense so I dropped out of it.
Steven Universe. After the white diamond thing I dropped it for good.
Rewatching the winter soldier for the bazillionth time and truly, what I love about it, are the “everyday” heroes who tried to do the right thing:
Sam Wilson
Sharon Carter
The guy running and screaming “close the bay doors!”
The air control techs who let Steve, Maria, and Sam in with a simple, yes, sure, please do come in, sir
The guy who wouldn’t launch the helicarriers
The members of the world security council who stood up to Pierce (not if it was your switch)
All the people who were trying to be “the only air support captain Rogers has”
This movie was about every person having the same energy as Steve Rogers; every person can be a hero if they choose to.
This movie is somehow more relevant in 2019 than it was in 2014.
kept tags: #winter soldier now feels like such an outlier#partly because.... think about it. where's everyone else in infinity war or endgame? i mean *everyone else.* the public. people.#age of ultron. civil war. infinity war. endgame. they all reduce nonpowered bystanders to pure collateral damage.#at least in the first avengers film they showed cops and firefighters trying to help fight and protect#but in everything after that? all the team movies? everyone but the heroes are just there to be menaced or killed#there's no brave civilians#there are barely any civilians at all#the streets and parks were totally empty in the earth fights of infinity war#'oh but it's a cosmic struggle you can't have somebody from brooklyn throw a tire iron at thanos'#uh buddy#that's steve rogers right there#that's the essence of his character and of so many heroic characters#I don't care how cosmic the stakes are#give me an underdog's fight or fuck off basically#give me nonpowered people who just happen to give a shit about their neighborhood and or world#give me brave civilians#give me the old german guy who told loki to go fuck himself#they demonstrate that the world is more than superpowered squabbles: it's a society worth fighting for.
Duuuuuuuuude, those tags. 😍
Caring about the ordinary people and giving them agency in their own lives is such a Good Thing in superhero/action media. I really appreciate it when movies/TV do this.
that’s part of what made winter soldier so powerful especially for steve’s character was not only showing those brave ordinary people but showing how someone like steve actively called on, looked to, and inspired those ordinary people, because he gets it. that they’re part of the solution because it’s their world too
