31. Which side character do you hope/had hoped would get more recognition?
my first thought is rhodey, because he is seriously underrated, and I am super excited for armor wars. he's smart, funny, and has a lot riding on him. I know everyone considers peter "the next iron man", and when it comes to his tech abilities and everything, absolutely. but - and i've posted about this before - rhodey also has a huge legacy to live up to. he's wearing a (modified) iron suit, he was tony's number two always, and he has to live up to and protect the legacy of a man he's been best friends with for most of their lives.
and like sam, he's a black man taking up (although admittedly less directly) the mantle of an american icon. also, the fact that it was steve and not rhodey that ran to meet tony after carol rescued the benatar from space was just plain ridciulous, thank you very much.
43. Whats one character you could rant about for hours?
tony. i have and i will again.
also, clint, particularly the way in which he was let down by j*ss wh*don as a character in the avengers (and then aou) and how that led to his entire character arc and characterization in the mcu being a disservice to an amazing comic character.
and, compounding on that, how it is absolutely ridiculous that wh*don decided against making clintasha a romantic relationship despite support from a huge section of the fandom, comic history, and the actors themselves, because it's "important to show that men and women can just be friends" only to pair her with bruce for the ungodly purpose of implying they’re both "monsters" and therefore are made for each other.
...i apologize for the mini-rant there.
