the russos really thought steve lifting mjolnir, saying “avengers assemble,” and giving sam the shield would distract us from how bad the end of his arc was, huh?

it just blows my mind how they were also behind catws and yet still gave us endgame, because tws steve & the way he was consciously trying to integrate himself into the 21st century was so good. we saw glimpses of him struggling to adjust at the end of catfa & in a1, but tws really had him try and endgame just breezed right past that. tws steve was finding space in his brand new world & making it where he couldn’t. tws steve was coming to terms with the fact that whatever world he knew had now moved on without him, he was coming to terms with the fact that peggy had moved on, had a husband she grew old with, and had children that she loved. endgame could’ve shown us steve getting a full new life -- instead, they send him back for a dance and a kiss. there’s cacw “selfish,” in that he wanted to be the one to bring bucky in because he still believed bucky had a chance & bucky was literally his last connection to before; and there’s endgame selfish, where he finally has his best friends & his new family back and he still creates a divergent timeline knowing full well that peggy had already lived her life. that... just doesn’t sit well with me.

does steve deserve a happy ending? of course. but i wish he got a good ending, too. now steve’s aged & back in the present, having lived a whole life that had just been out of his grasp in his original timeline--but that was the big tragedy of it!! he had just missed that life, he had sacrificed that life so that others could have theirs. tws made it clear that that life hadn’t been meant for him. it wasn’t meant to be his life because that opportunity had passed, but now he had a brand new chance, and he had peggy’s blessing. his opportunity for growth came in the acceptance that he could not go backward, only onward: aou steve was aware he wasn’t the same man that went down in the ice, or the same man that had been thawed out. he didn’t have to be. how could aou steve get that point right, and endgame steve couldn’t? so: steve gets his girl, peggy gets her dance, but bucky loses steve and sam loses steve. bucky who conquered his brainwashing and was starting to find peace, sam who got back into the fight because he saw that steve needed help--and they just lose steve to those years like that? steve gets 70 years and bucky and sam get five minutes and a moment by the water? they all deserved better than that.

AND ONE MORE FUCKING THING. the fakeout of the elevator scene???? hello???? there i was, expecting another brilliantly choreographed elevator fight scene with steve walking out of those doors with the sceptre, and instead, i get punched in the throat by a reminder of n*ck sp*ncer’s h*dra!cap, even if it was fake? seriously? SERIOUSLY?
