…One of the best superheroes to work with. :)

Ever since i posted this yesterday on both twitter and tumblr, ive been overwhelmed by the positive reactions of so, so many sweet people, trans or not. I just want to say thank you for liking, thank you for sharing, and thank you for telling me your stories. You are all really, really important. 💟

okay also the little motion blurs on their hands are a joy

Now THIS is what being an animator is all about

Holy shit this fucking super power. The avengers did Quicksilver WRONG.

Holy shit

The brilliant thing about this isn’t just the CGI, it’s the clever little touches of humor– mussing the boy’s hair, saving the goldfish, drinking the soda can, the moonwalk, lining up the dart with the dartboard. I notice new details every time I see this clip. You can watch this scene with zero context and still fully enjoy it. You don’t need to know who he is or who he’s saving or why. There’s a guy who runs real fast and he’s saving people from an explosion, and he’s having a blast with it, and that’s all you need to know. It’s entertaining and fully comprehensible even if you know nothing about the movie. That’s damn good filmmaking.

I was thinking about this last night, where someone noted that what makes an experienced speedster dangerous isn’t just their speed, but the reaction and processing time required to use that speed effectively. Someone who moves that fast is dangerous, someone who can react instantaneously and is effectively impossible to surprise is terrifying.

Also the speedsters with the differential speed - look at the shifts as Quicksilver goes up a few gears to pull off a complicated move, then (relatively) slows down in a recovery mode, and then takes a moment to recharge, pause and think, speed up again to max out the evacuation.  All the shifts in speed that indicate that there’s a five speed manual gear box equivalent of speedster thinking

This shit is going to end up in history books in the future.
