So one of our new vocabulary words is “malus”, meaning “bad”, and I asked my students if they could think of any English derivatives, telling them that just about any English word that begins with M-A-L is going to mean something “bad”.

I’m expecting stuff like: malice, malcontent, malnourished, or even malware or Maleficent.

Instead I get this one girl in the back of the room say “male” with the most dead-eyed expression.

[quomododragon]

This has the same energy as two years ago when another student said she remembered “vir” meant “man” because “it looks like virus, and men are a virus”.

[mygenitiveisobjective]

One of my Latin students, whenever I’d ask if they wanted a couple extra minutes to review before a test, would always say, “No, we die like men.” And so finally I asked her why it was always ‘like men’. She said, “We die like men, unprepared and useless.”

i’m really loving these new dinosaur characters, i hope they stick around awhile

[punksandcannonballers]

oh fuck off

[mwagneto]

jesus fucking christ look at all these fragile pieces of shit who can’t watch a movie with women and poc in them I'm💀💀💀

[mwagneto]

everyone who’s commenting “haha wouldn’t that leave like 5 minutes of the movie then😂😂” is missing the point SO hard

no, it wouldn’t. cutting all the female characters, poc and gay “rep” is actually….pretty easy. this guy did it and it’s still a solid movie.

you guys are giving marvel WAY too much credit. They don’t give a shit about representation, they don’t give a shit about you - the only thing they care about is money and looking Woke™

they did that by advertising how “progressive” they are for adding the first openly gay character ever!! let’s see when we can get an openly gay main character. or at least, dare I suggest, one that has a name.

they did that by hyping carol the fuck up and then only using her for 3 scenes

they did that by putting all the female characters in one shot for a Girl Power UwU scene; “oh look at us! we have all these female characters in one shot! we don’t hate women” isn’t that sad? that you can fit all your girls into one single shot? that despite your claims, all the girls combined still only have 116 minutes of screentime while the men have almost 400? isn’t that fucking pathetic?

it is. and look at this douche, look at all the assholes out there, this doesn’t mean SHIT to them, they take half an hour out of their day and cut a few scenes and boom - everything marvel claims is “progressive” is gone. none of their fake wokeness is important to the plot.

the gay character? who even is he?

T'challa and his family? their ~ 1 minute of screentime is easily cut

Sam becoming Cap? Where will we see that? In the show? Right. This person cut the scene and did that change the plot of endgame? the answer is no.

Carol? not much to cut since she was barely there

Natasha? The only thing she was good for is to die

Pepper? housewife. All he needed to do was cut the scenes where Tony washes the dishes and talks to Pepper, and cut Rescue’s, what, 20 seconds of screentime? and boom. ideal female, right?

Valkyrie? Oh she’s there alright, in the background, doing jack shit until Thor calls her queen in one scene, but does that scene mean anything? Do any of her scenes mean anything? Not to them. 10 seconds is all it takes and her scenes are all gone.

Nebula? kidnapped. dead

Gamora? insignificant. cut

you can’t mock this dude because “haha he has no movie left now 😂”. you gotta mock, no, hate marvel because that’s just the thing - he does. not a single poc or woman or lgbt person did anything that, if they left it out, the movie would make no sense.

and that’s just what he did. and yes, he’s pathetic for it, but don’t think marvel gives a single fuck about you. they don’t.

[thelastjedicritical]

Aaaand someone said it … every single time a dude can make such a cut and the movie still makes sense, the movie has failed.

[alltingfinns]

New rule: If you can cut all minority characters and women without losing plot coherency it is a failure. We can call it the Rian-Russo effect.

[thelastjedicritical]

Reblogging again for the Rian-Russo effect!

[greyspell]

So Tony and Nebula are dead for the whole movie if there’s no Captain Marvel…

But I will concede one point, Valkyrie shouldn’t be queen.

Because Thor named her King!

Peter’s voice quivers, but he’s not quite tipped into accepting it yet. Instead, he takes a little step back towards road, his eyes on the knife as it glints in the moonlight. “Tony,” he manages, forcing a weak laugh, “you’re- you’re scaring me.”

Tony’s smile is much more self-assured, and he tucks the knife (it’s all red, it’s red red red) into the waistband of his jeans. “Well, don’t be scared, sweetheart. You know I’d never hurt you.” He steps onto the tarmac, and Peter looks both ways down the stretch of highway. 

There’s nothing for miles. 

Peter swallows, and feels his heart leap into his throat. “Was that- I thought I saw- I didn’t see it, I must…” he shakes his head, he can feel his curls fall into his face. “I must’ve imagined it and-” his voice breaks.

“Baby,” Tony coos, striding forward, and using one, very bloodied hand, to stroke Peter’s hair out of his eyes. The boy blinks up at him: petrified. “I just did what had to be done.”

No. No. “You can’t- you didn’t-”

“No one can talk to you like that.”

Oh god. His legs give out underneath him, but Tony catches him by his elbows and kisses his cheekbone. 

“I’ve got you,” he promises, and Peter stares at the moon as he’s lifted into strong, sticky wet arms. 

Oh god. He has a terrible feeling it’s true.

[whitedaydream]

Loki, I thought the world of you.

I thought we were gonna fight side by side forever.

But at the end of the day, you’re you, I’m me.

Maybe there’s still good in you.

But our path diverged a long time ago.

I trust you.

You betray me.

Round and round,

in circles we go.

See, Loki, life is about,

It’s about growth.

It’s about change.

But you stayed the same.

Anyway, I got places to be so good luck.

Let deeds match words. 

[icyxmischief]

Bless. This. Post.  @whitedaydream bless YOU. 

[juliabohemian]

Whoever made this deserves a cookie. Thanks for pinpointing everything wrong with this speech, with visual aids.

[lasimo74allmyworld]

I love this post with all my heart because reveals all the injustices and the lies Loki is been subjected to. Thank you @whitedaydream ❤

[sassenachsansa-deactivated20201]

Loki was definitely not given enough hugs as a child, but he attempted genocide. The good things he’s doing now don’t negate that, and Thor is right!

[whitedaydream]

Do you mean Thor is right for these? ↓ 

And how many good things dose Thor need to do to negate these?

[sassenachsansa-deactivated20201]

I didn’t say Thor was perfect. I said he was right. He began as a hotheaded arrogant prince who grew into a wise king. He never did what loki did. Loki has grown, he still wanted to subjugate an entire planet and rule it like a dictatorship.

[whitedaydream]

Since Odin had subjugated more than seven entire planets and had been ruling Asgard like a dictatorship for like 5,000 years, I don’t see what’s wrong with Loki trying to rule Asgard as a dictator just like his “father”. After all, it was Odin who promised Loki he has the birthright to ascend to the throne of Asgard. 

And Thor did as much as Loki did. Both of them tried to massacre the entire race of frost giants. Oh, another remind: Now Thor is ruling Asgard just “like a dictatorship”, lol.

[lucianalight]

I’ve been summoned by @kaori04 !:D

@magnetic-dreams Thor was right? Let’s take a moment to consider these:

Before his banishment Thor was OK with the idea of genocide. He attempted it before Loki, just because someone called him a princess.

Odin actually commited genocide, ruled the nine realms as an imprialist dictator and up until last moment, Thor still looked up to him. Never condemned Odin for his lies and crimes.

At the start of TR, Thor invaded the planet of Fire Giants, killed their king and lots of its inhbitatnts just because he had a dream of Ragnarok! Just like what he did at the start of first Thor movie.

Meanwhile, Loki when ruling Asgard as Odin, stopped Asgard’s military interventions in other realms and decieded to give them their freedom.

Sure, Loki invaded Earth because of some unclear situation, involving Thanos, who is going to be the villain that all the heroes of MCU are going to fight him and we are not sure how many can survive. But certainly Loki could say no to him, right?

But, you know, Thor was right, just because the movies portray him as a hero and therefore if he does one good thing it can erase all his mistakes. But because Loki is portrayed as a villain, no matter what he does, how many good things he does, they can never negate what he did, right?

[whitedaydream]

At the start of TR, Thor invaded the planet of Fire Giants, killed their king and lots of its inhbitatnts just because he had a dream of Ragnarok! Just like what he did at the start of first Thor movie.

I didn’t realize this until you pointed out. Now I wonder… If it’s Frost Giants who caused Ragnarok in his dream, would Thor carry out a slaughter in Jodunheim, of his brother’s own race?

Are Fire Giants and Frost Giants (still) inferior but strong monsters in Thor’s mind, so he would slaughter them at his will? But mortals on Earth are weak and innocuous livestock, so he needs to protect them?

I’m so confused.

[alstee]

I missed Loki’s reaction in the last couple of images the first time around, dude is trying to calm himself via breathing!

This is after one of the Frost Giants touched his arm but before Loki touches the Casket of Ancient Winters to confirm he is Jotun, isn’t it?!

My heart! D:

No wonder Loki decided not to trust Thor in the first film. (”He would kill me too if he knew, wouldn’t he?”)

Like, damn.

[nikkoliferous]

Never, ever forget that Thor (2011) opened with a young Thor vowing to one day hunt down and slay any remaining frost giants.

I’m certain Loki hasn’t forgotten.
