some delightful rbs beneath the cut (1/3 bc i maxxed out the allowed links per post twice)
#and the film wouldn't be the same without his sad puppy dog baby blues
itās likeā¦ heās trying so so hard to be a slut but his eyes are just a lil too wet
#so true op#that het narrative was doomed from the start
#literally brother#womanisers are always repressed gaysā¼ļøā¼ļø i dint make the rules
#that man is in love sith steve rogers and steve rogers ONLY
#Thank you for your service Sebastian Stan
#they also brought arnie roth into his character#the man notorious for fakedating women while bringing steve on dates with him lmfao
#no literally catfa was the start of seb's twink death#everything he was on prior to becoming bucky he was a twink#bucky is sebastian stan's twink death
#a date where he pays more attention to steve than his supposed date
#It really shouldn't surprise marvel#by the time he was hired he'd been playing sad gay characters for a while#like of course he went on to play the saddest most depressed gay character in marvel's history#My boy played TJ Hammond and Jack Benjamin before he was Bucky#Even evil twink icon Chase Collins so even the dark side of the winter soldier wasn't any straighter
[...] the best smiles and hugs and facial expression were really all for Steve. Nobody else mattered.
In the future when Tony or Sam ask about Howardās flying car that famously shat itself on stage and Bucky was there, right? So what was it like?
Bucky is all like āum I dunno. I wasnāt really looking at it ā¦ā
#if they wanted that they truly didnāt think it through#that entire bit from the alley to meeting Erskine is making it clear they only really have eyes for each other#even non Stucky shippers would struggle to see those scenes as depicting Bucky as a womaniser
#And those gazes are all directed at Steve
#facts#after catws they realized the homo corner they'd written themselves into#and tried to squelch it ever after#sad
#well said š very eloquent of you
#modern day tos captain kirk right there lol#let me gaze longingly into my costars eyes. i am a womanizer. my costar is a man and i look like i am madly in love with him.#...definitely a womanizer though.
#yes!!!!!!#they KNEW they were casting a great winter soldier#they KNEW about the longing#but they also saw Gossip Girl on his resume and were like#yeah thisāll probably work#he probably wonāt bare his soul in this part right?#he totes wonāt show unfiltered love and devotion to Steve lollll
They knew exactly what they were doing. That man cut his acting teeth playing tortured pretty gay boys.
#yeah that's what happens when you cast an eastern european
#also they gave him 1 date which he walks out to go and find steve#and has to be interrupted and reminded his date exists#followed by him fumbling peggy#(š¤®)#you could use the exact same events#in a 'proof our protagonist is gay af' montage in a queer romcom
#the casting agent did not pay attention to sebastian stan's eastern european background
Is he gay or European?
(BOTH)
#jokes on them Sebastian just has this eastern european sadness in his eyes genetically
Not only this but he also took his date to a science fair AND read the hobbit the same year it came out?? Like my dude is a gay nerd leave him alone
All they did was confirm the doubledates were camouflage.#given that for tfa they write out Steve's fully canonical gay Jewish roommate#it was kind of hilarious how they cast Seb in the wierd 2 character mash up that is MCU's Bucky Barnes#also he is an excellent research nerd and did his reading up on the comics as soon as he got the part
#are you saying captain america: the first avenger ISNāT eastern european gay porn?
#and then they give him and steve the kind of storyline thats so soulmate coded
#and they cast him as a bisexual man who is in love with his best friend Steve#that was truly their downfall
the fact hes played like 3-4 gay characters so far too. hes got that yearning in his gaze down to a tea
If I had a nickel for every time Easting European gay porn was used to describe someone eyes I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice
#it's bcos he's a momma's boy who grew up with sisters#he knew how to work those big sweet wet eyes by the age of 7
#happy pride month to sebastian stan as bucky barnes#marvel won't let him out of the closet but I WILL
#ohhhh my goddddd#like was he doing that on purpose#and it's a far more compelling story than straight steve/bucky anyway. they should've leaned into it
#genuinely Sebastianās gay ass European eyes are what makes Bucky not the womanizer ppl tried to make him be
#absolutely insane and true
#LMAO#heās tries SO HARD too and when he fails miserably after post-serum Steve turns up itās even funnier
#NO BECAUS EIT GENIUNELY FELT LIKE TWO DIFFERENT FUCKING GENRES EVERY TIME YOU FLIPPED TO BUCKYS PERSPECTIVE LMAOOOO
#he's like heyyy steve i picked up some chicks for us ;)#and the audience hears heyyy steve -- ;)#and its not even our fault
#hjhuihjk#consequences of casting a sad eastern european man i guess
#this post is amazing because it was written a couple weeks ago but reads like a 2012-era post
he looked like he's gotta cry fr
#you can take the boy out of romania but not romania out of the boy
#my GOD i was just watching it again today/yesterday and the way he looks between peggy and steve is like. woah dude. um#like he fully checks out peggy's ass and I'm sure the filmmakers meant for him to be jealous#but the exact flavor of that jealousy comes off... in a way they likely didn't intend
#thatās what you get when you cast an eastern european man who#up until that point#was most famous for playing sad gay characters
#not to objectify a beautiful man but sebastian stan could have had a beautiful career in eastern european gay porn
#those are the type of guys who actually get women tho#*my immortal voice* i love sensitive bi guys
#these are the side effects of casting an eastern european man in your movie
#the only woman heād ever be into is serena vdw and only bc she sees him as the pathetic sad wet boy that he is
#turns him into the most struggling w comphet man ive ever seen
