psych is my favorite adaptation of sherlock holmes because every episode is like holmes and watson are on the case! And Also Holmes's Dad Is Here Too

Which of these LOTR movie lines that’s NOT in the book is your favorite?

“A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins, nor is he early.”

“If you want him, come and claim him!”

“One does not simply walk into Mordor.”

“What about second breakfast?”

“My brother, my captain, my king.”

“Don’t you lose him, Samwise Gamgee, and I don’t mean to.”

“I would’ve gone with you to the end, into the very fires of Mordor.”

“Shall I describe it to you or would you like me to find you a box?”

“It is but a shadow & a thought that you love, I cannot give you what you seek.”

“What about side by side with a friend?”

“For Frodo.”

“My friends, you bow to no one.”

NEW VERSION. :)

[legoclowncar]

you know what trope i just go maximum apeshit for every goddamn time?

when a character has to improvise a weapon under urgent circumstances.

im talking characters in handcuffs using them to garrote enemies

characters swinging objects that are WILDLY un-aerodynamic (a table, a a garden gate.)

or throwing objects that are wildly un-damaging (an inflatable chair, a bunch of flowers)

throwing something soft and light over someones head as a brief distraction

using the ENVIRONMENT against their adversary (pulling a rug from under them, slamming a door in their face)

using weapons that are broken or not working properly, or using them the ‘incorrect’ way (using an empty gun as a bludgeon, Elizabeth Swann pulling that sword off the wall but it still being attached to the wall display)

swordfights using anything BUT swords

people macgyvering wildly ‘low-tech’ improvised contraptions to defeat massively high-tech and well organised attacks

loading a blunderbuss or shotgun with something commonplace and either not-at-all dangerous or surprisingly lethal (sand, cutlery, buttons)

i love this trope so much

[valtsv]

(annoyed british butler voice) sir… that’s somewhat cringe

[azuzulira]

I daresay you might lose subscriber

@im-batmeme alfred watching us all make terrible life decisions

[memeria-hill]

@memequeenpeggycarter … I may be wrong, but… Jarvis and Howard Stark?

[memequeenpeggycarter]

I could see that.

[memequeenpeggycarter]

I haven't seen Endgame, but I'm getting a lot of spoilers. What do you think about the nonsense Steve stuff in it? I'm gonna pretend it's all from that dreadful radio serial from the 50s.

((honestly I was just happy to see Peggy on-screen. I just ignored the plot holes to the best of my ability and enjoyed myself))

Try not to die during a mission. It causes too much paperwork.

[memequeenpeggycarter]

Kilroy was here.

He was a great many places. Do you know how many mission were delayed because the howlies wanted to draw him somewhere impossible to reach? Too many

[scarletmemewitch]

is the music too loud or am I too old?

or have I simply lost my tolerance for christmas music early this year?

[memequeenpeggycarter]

The music must be too loud.

Because if you're too old, then I don't want to think about what that makes me

[memequeenpeggycarter]

More like the Star spangled man without a plan

50.  Ordering pizza is fine. Getting pizza delivered to secret and secure facilities is not fine. Please go out and pick up your pizza from the restaurant (with a non-S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicle) if you must be ordering pizza while at these facilities.

During World War II, there was a large push for recruitment of some of the best art students across the country to join the United States Army.  They formed a “deception unit”, or a “ghost army” that appeared to look like a huge mass of soldiers, tanks, trucks and artillery.  However, it was all smoke and mirrors, consisting of inflatable tanks, sound design, and clever applications of fake tank tracks overnight.  Actors also met in pubs, planting false information.  This distracted the enemy from the real troops who were gathering.

To learn more about this fascinating undertaking, which was only de-classified fairly recently, check out the podcast on the subject from 99% Invisible.  (Photo from Retronaut/Mashable, England, c. 1939)

No more sexy Captain Americas for Halloween. It’s not that I’m a prude, it’s just that all those straps are very impractical in combat.

[peoriarhetoriapeoria]

Can we interest you in body paint instead?

@memequeenpeggycarter

[memequeenpeggycarter]

I'd say body paint is even MORE impractical.

32. Agent Peggy Carter can and will kick your butt. You have been warned.

[sexyboitommo]

[3k626ekful7ozxujar43keiw236in2h]

Getting teenagers to do stuff works better if you tell them you did it “in the war”.

“In the war, I always picked up my socks.”

[memeria-hill]

According to @memequeenpeggycarter, you never picked up your socks.

[memequeenpeggycarter]

Can confirm.
