One day I’m actually gonna learn how to edit videos and then I’m gonna make a peggysous and Team Cap supercut while I sarcastically describe steggy scenes so you can see what a good strong all rounded relationship Peggy and Daniel had and how much Sam, Nat, Bucky and Wanda meant to Steve so I can post it and make a visual point of much steve and peggy should never have been canon in these circumstances. and then I’m gonna make a one of those “everything wrong with endgame” videos but less pretentious than cinemasins and with actual arguments and it’s gonna end up being longer than endgame itself.

But I don’t know how to edit videos yet, so back to finding a good editing software and watching youtube tutorials it is.

[cryofreeze70-blog]

Please do this! There are definitely enough legitimate ‘sins’ in the movie to fill up a whole video, backed up with indisputable canon no less, and I get the feeling CinemaSins will be onboard the EG train of “this doesn’t make sense if you think about it too hard but CAP HOLDING MJOLNIR so they get away with it”  Which. Is. Not. An. Excuse. For. Bad. Writing!!! (Have CinemaSins already released an Everything Wrong With Endgame video yet? I should probably check on that haha)

Anyway, yes please do this and I will definitely watch it x)

The only way marvel is getting my ass in that theater for a re-release is if the entire ending is changed.

[on-my-left-got-it]

****if the entire movie is changed

[cryofreeze70-blog]

I honestly never thought we’d ever even get any form of re-release or alternate footage or whatever for Endgame, or that Marvel would even hint that maybe what they originally released wasn’t good enough. But then here comes a frankly outlandish money-grab re-release, only 2 months after the original release no less, which is just absurdly arrogant to me, and I’ll bet there won’t be any tidying up their mistakes, or any attempts to smooth over some of the major issues (Steve’s ending ffs!!) that is sort of causing another Civil War throughout the entire Marvel fandom and would be the only reason Marvel could possibly justify re-releasing the movie at all in the first place. 

But no, I’ll bet it’s a blatant, money-grab re-release all for 6 minutes more of Peter Quill and Thor quipping with each other, or Tony and Rocket pranking each other in the lab, or 2014 Thanos talking with Squidward and Gamora before heading through the Quantum Tunnel to 2023, or Scott hilariously dropping another Taco much to the delight of everyone forking out even more money for this ridiculous scam -.- I’ll bet there’ll be no funeral for Nat, no further mention of Nat for that matter, no reunion between Steve and Bucky or even hint of acknowledgement from Steve to Bucky whatsoever, no cool scene of Steve returning the stones, no backstory for Bruce or how he got to this stage of his character journey, no appreciation or support for Thor after what he’s gone through... I can’t even try and hope for any of this, because even if by some miracle Marvel managed to rectify the mess they made of the canon and characters in Endgame with only 6 minutes of new footage, it’s too little too late at this point after the mess the Russos and M&M have already made in interviews :(

I would love to be wrong about this, and if I am I will gladly eat my words, but sadly I think the chances of that are very, very slim at this point.

And as for the end credits scene...? It’ll be the rat, won’t it? Unless it’s Old Steve on that bench being revealed as Loki or a Skrull, Endgame can f*** off imo

About the “happy” ending of Steve Rogers in Endgame.

So, Steve Rogers returned the infinity stones and Mjolnir back to their respected places, jumped back in time to marry Peggy Carter, ignoring the fact that he is leaving Bucky behind, whom he had just reunited with. Till the end of the line? It was like “I get to decide when to put a full stop and bring the end of the line, Buck!” He left behind the world that Tony and Nat sacrificed themselves to protect. He left behind his fellow Avengers. While some people argue that he has earned to get one chance at happiness, I strongly believe that the real Steve would never do that. Marvel just ruined his entire story arc. Marvel ruined our Captain America.

I am going to file a petition on Change.org. I want our Steve Rogers back. To my fellow fans and lovers of Steve Rogers, that ending had torn me apart. Posts with the hashtag #NotMySteve and #NotMyCaptain are going to get us nowhere. Let us assemble, friends. We can bring the change. We can get the attention of Russo brothers and tell them that they screwed up. That they f**ked up with our beloved character. Let’s assemble, friends. I am going to file a petition, I am going to try. I’m done with reading the posts filled with fury over this character assassination. And I need your help. I request you to sign that petition. I request you to support me, to bring back our Steve. Are you with me? 

Some people move on, but not us. Not us. 

[cryofreeze70-blog]

I would love to believe that if Marvel really saw the tidal wave of Steve fans who are not standing for this ending that they would do something about it, but unfortunately I think no matter what we do they’ll turn their backs on us just like they did to Steve’s characterization, his relationships and to everything he’s ever been and represented. 

But, unlike Marvel, I will never turn my back on Steve - and even if they’ll never correct or even admit to their mistake, I will stand up for Steve Rogers and help to make it known that those of us who’ve loved and learned from him will always speak up against injustice, no matter how futile an attempt it might be, the way he taught us to do. Sign me up for this petition!

#All I know is I won’t go speechless  #yes I’m listening to Jasmine’s song right now and it’s perfect

Also I want it to be clear that I have only love and respect for Chris Evans, he’s brought this beloved character to life perfectly and in a way that clearly resonated with all of us and that will never be destroyed - my grievance is with the creators deliberately responsible for Steve’s character assassination in Endgame, never with darling Chris xx

[greyelfsworld]

Only possible explanation

[cryofreeze70-blog]

They even foreshadowed this in the 2012 scene with Steve saying “I have eyes on Loki” when he saw himself - this would have been the perfect twist ending!

Mention of Endgame Plot Points Below - Spoiler for Endgame! Don’t read if you don’t want spoilers!

I'm so proud that Steve finally got the chance to wield Mjölnir in Endgame, cause he sure as hell ain't worthy anymore after what the Russos turned him into for that ending  #notmysteve #notsteve’sfault #iblamemarvel :( 

[cryofreeze70-blog]

Has this been done yet?

[hannibalartarchive]

I mean, it’s like Marvel put out a dare. It was just… too… easy… 

[cryofreeze70-blog]

This is perfect! Like the romantic couple movie poster we all deserve! xP

Happy 100th Birthday Steve Rogers!!!

Happy 100th Birthday to the one and only Steve Rogers!! :D I think we all need a role model like Steve in the world right now - thanks for inspiring us and helping us all aspire to be better people, Steve. We’ll get there some day <3<3

The brown-haired man carefully wraps his arm around the blond, and they make an oddly mismatched pair finding their way along the beach path. A crescent strip of sand stretches ahead of them for a good hundred yards. The ocean forms a ragged line of froth beyond a few rounded boulders in the shallows, and Steve cannot see a single soul out there.

In other words, perfection.

“See, I told you it’s worth it,” Bucky says, as smitten by the emptiness as the end to their trudging.

Running for the hell of it twists his grin wider. Steve lags now, slowed by some purpose, checking back over his shoulder too often. Bucky gains on him, not slowing up.

Steve shies out of the water, headed for the rolling sand. “Hey, look out for the ne--”

No need to warn. No need to stop and process the call. Bucky flat out tackles him back into the waves. Whatever threat the net provided, they roll right through it and end up sprawled flat in the shallows.

They go down together and roll, thrown through the surface. Being wet and sandy and mucky feels so incredibly good.

“What was that for? I tried telling you--”

“I know,” Bucky cuts him off with a laugh.

Steve's nostrils flare and he drops his head back, water lapping up to his shoulders. They half float and half thrash in the waves, inundated when the larger rollers break over them.

“I don't know what I'm going to do with you,” the blond mutters to himself.

Bucky presses his brow to the man's. His grin arcs sharply, electricity shot between them.

They let the outriders close in, and then wiped them out in a series of moves so ingrained, so practiced, so fluid, that the creatures were dead before they even realized it.

Bucky and Steve faced each other. Heated and sweaty, battle-weary.

“God, I love you,” Bucky said, and Steve’s face lit up, like a morning sunrise. He was so damn brilliant, so bright.

“"Listen to me.“ 

Sylar moved before consciously deciding to do so. 

“You’re going to be alright, Peter, because you have something I never did.” Crouching on his knees on the cold ground before the empath, he spoke very deliberately, very softly now. “A friend.” He vowed, a rusty whisper that was swept away along the length of the bridge. "You don’t have to go through this alone.””

Here’s another scene from "Tongues of Fire” - I hope you like it! I’m working on the next chapter of the story, as ever, so please look out for an update soon ^.^

This scene is from chapter 24, if you’ve read that far you should recognise it, and if not then please feel free to check out the story ^.^ Don’t be afraid to let me know what you think, feedback is always appreciated, especially in such a tiny fandom as ours X)

Fan fiction is what literature might look like if it were reinvented from scratch after a nuclear apocalypse by a band of brilliant pop-culture junkies trapped in a sealed bunker. They don’t do it for money. That’s not what it’s about. The writers write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction. They’re fans, but they’re not silent, couchbound consumers of media. The culture talks to them, and they talk back to the culture in its own language.

This is probably the best, non-judgmental description of fan fiction I’ve ever heard of in main stream media.
