We used to make posts about loki on here

[ferretteeth]

I love this post so much. “we used to make posts about loki on here” is the gentlest way possible to describe this website’s history. It’s like saying einstein dabbled in science

[edgebug]

it means so much to me that rocky's lead puppeteer james ortiz got to voice him and got like. full billing right next to ryan gosling in the opening credits. and he's gotten to do interviews and red carpet appearances and talk about puppetry and it's all being taken so seriously just like he's any other type of actor. gonna make me cry fr. like they could have gotten some famous person to be rocky's voice to try and pull more star power but. they went with the guy who acted him. and like of course they did. like there he is. how could they do anything else. he's right there and he's perfect

tony sucks so much pre-afghanistan in such a specific way and it is so interesting to me

[kayvsworld]

every year i make it like 10 minutes in and then i have to pause. sigh

like pre-afghanistan tony is like,,, deeply apathetic. floating through his own life, terrible to himself and the people around him not by intent but by just not really giving a shit, not paying attention, he does Not care about the awards ceremony he's missing he does not care if he's late anywhere he does not care where his money goes he's got his hands off the wheel with his company because obie's driving and pepper drives everything else.

pepper is one of the most important people in his life. he does not know when her birthday is. he has the most advanced digital assistant in the world. he could have Jarvis remind him. he could set up a calendar reminder. he doesn't.

rhodey is one of the most important people in his life. he lets him eat shit on stage because he's too busy Working A Crowd & Gambling and he doesn't even care if he wins or not or goes home with any of the women hanging off him he could be anywhere he could be doing anything. and sure he's quick with the empty platitudes oh rhodey i'm so sorry but he Does later make rhodey wait for him for three hours at the airport and everyone around him's like yeah he's just like this. deliberate distance

but the interesting part!!!!!!!! is that there are cracks. it's like 100 surface layers of Who Gives A Shit Whatever until you press him on it, like with christine everhart. he has his 100 justifications at the ready, and then when she doesn't buy the rehearsed obie & howard line's he's selling, suddenly he's whipping off the sunglasses like okay well we're killing people but we're saving them, too, on paper, is anyone going to ask me about That? is anybody going to pay attention to That? where do you think that comes from? how do you think that happens? all those breakthroughs? military funding, honey. and then he's redirecting onto something else

and then afghanistan happens and the whole thing is blown wide open and he's like okay ACTUALLY, i DO give a shit actually i gave a shit the WHOLE GODDAMN TIME actually i CARE and i can do something about this and it no one will help me i'll do it myself and i have an obligation and a purpose and a reason to be alive

it's just so compelling to watch that fire get reignited in this guy who's maybe been like completely checked out since his parents died & only doing What He Wants as a footnote side project with military funding that needs to be okayed by obadiah stane for 20 years like oh my god

And I just love Tony Stark so much okay… okay oh my god you’ve got this guy who puts his life on the line all the time just to keep people safe… you’ve got this guy who would flush his reputation down the toilet… you’ve got this guy who is so fixated on the future and ways that he could make it better for humanity because that’s who he’s fighting for, isn’t it? And he just wants to help people okay he just wants to make up for his mistakes… he painted his armor gold after seeing how children were scared by his initial appearance… he just… he just wants to help… and he’s so sad? All the time? And he doesn’t think that he’s enough? He beats himself up over everything, even things that weren’t his fault? He smudges a portrait of himself to make it look like he’s crying? He draws a heart on a window and laments the fact that he doesn’t have one? I’m going to cry right now immediately.

It's amazing how I read a Shakespeare play and I'm like sure I guess this is kinda clever but then I see one performed by a cast who really get it and ohhhh fuck. Holy fucking fuck. Yeah ok this really is That Good. I see why Shakespeare is such a big deal even today. Fuck.

I was at the marvel tv panel at NYCC yesterday and iron man 3 was namedropped (due to Trevor Slattery being in Wonder Man) and I did in fact yell. If iron man 3 has no fans I’m dead I will always show up for her
