Kimi No Na Wa (2016)

Your name (2016)

my opinion is that we should bring back sword duelling but be more explicitly homoerotic about it this time

what was the first show y’all broke up with…you know like the first show you had that was your everything for a good amount of time and then it fucked up so bad that like you felt your heart breaking with sadness, disappointment and hurt and then you vowed never to see it again? i’ll start mine was shame/ess

Lost. I knew in season 3 they weren’t going to answer questions or make sense so I dropped out of it.

Steven Universe. After the white diamond thing I dropped it for good.

kept tags: #winter soldier now feels like such an outlier#partly because.... think about it. where's everyone else in infinity war or endgame? i mean *everyone else.* the public. people.#age of ultron. civil war. infinity war. endgame. they all reduce nonpowered bystanders to pure collateral damage.#at least in the first avengers film they showed cops and firefighters trying to help fight and protect#but in everything after that? all the team movies? everyone but the heroes are just there to be menaced or killed#there's no brave civilians#there are barely any civilians at all#the streets and parks were totally empty in the earth fights of infinity war#'oh but it's a cosmic struggle you can't have somebody from brooklyn throw a tire iron at thanos'#uh buddy#that's steve rogers right there#that's the essence of his character and of so many heroic characters#I don't care how cosmic the stakes are#give me an underdog's fight or fuck off basically#give me nonpowered people who just happen to give a shit about their neighborhood and or world#give me brave civilians#give me the old german guy who told loki to go fuck himself#they demonstrate that the world is more than superpowered squabbles: it's a society worth fighting for.

Duuuuuuuuude, those tags. 😍

Caring about the ordinary people and giving them agency in their own lives is such a Good Thing in superhero/action media. I really appreciate it when movies/TV do this.

that’s part of what made winter soldier so powerful especially for steve’s character was not only showing those brave ordinary people but showing how someone like steve actively called on, looked to, and inspired those ordinary people, because he gets it. that they’re part of the solution because it’s their world too
