Taskmaster is a mirror. She sees. Memorizes. Replicates. Kills, all under the Red Room's control. ... Until a literal rock breaks through her life, the mirror she's always been starts to crack, and she gets caught in a potentially incoming multiversal war, all while her mind slowly goes nuts.

...Or:

ok, I admit it, I couldn't stand Sansa in book 1. But hey, find one of the Stark children who knew how to use their little dumb brain before plot happened

Come on, 'Sansa is spoiled'? Sansa was 12. Find a 12yo who's not a piece of shit with her little sister and thinks she's the smartest. And she was kind of a princess. First daughter of one of the most powerful lords in westeros. Come on, she had reasons to be spoiled.

And Jon??? AH. Jon had been a piece of shit to everyone at the black castle until he got thrown out in the lands beyond the Wall. He really knew nothing at the times. Robb acted like the big man of Winterfell ready to go to war but girl he does not know what the fuck he's doing. They're 15. Come on.

Bran was 7 and was going through it, Arya was literally 9 and she just happily ran around, Rickon was three.

I MISS BOOK 1 STARK CHILDREN YOUR HONOR back when they still were allowed to act their age and they were absolutely adorable

Book 1 me, traumatized by Bran's fall and 100% blaming it on Jaime, knows shit about the seven kingdoms politics but lowkey vibing, can't stand Sansa convinced she's just a spoiled child:

Uuuuh... So, now we... Like Jaime?

Book 5 me, completely and utterly head over heels fallen into the despair of obsession, writes pamphlets theorising over the outcomes of the war of the five kings, cherishes Sansa like a little sister, knows there's no ending to trauma and lowkey already gave up on being sane:

... Girl. WE LOVE Jaime Lannister.

WHAT???

And Theon also. He's a patootie.

He's useless and an idiot!!!

Eeeeh... Not exactly, no. Not anymore.

*Level of agony: show Jon Snow*

Like, a Superman punching a dictator in the face, stepping into a war next to the oppressed, saying things like "people were gonna die!!!!" after been asked the reason, unashamedly being the literal symbol of immigration and fighting against racism; and THEN giving a good representation of journalists and their work, him respecting Lois's committment to her job, the Daily Planet fearlessly working alongside Superman to unveil the truth about Lex

AND NOW a Supergirl going around in her trenchcoat and messy hair killing sex traffickers and protecting girls, not sexualised at all, allowed to be chaotic and "ugly" on screen, her mother parenting her (and us) with things like being good doesn't mean being nice or kind or smiling at people

I'm so sad Supergirl is getting such bad reviews on the internet; everyone has their own opinions, but I hope people will not be discouraged to go watch it themselves because of it. I loved it soo much btw

1.light and colours that change basing on the type of sun. I really liked that they used light to show this important thing about Kara's character (and I just love when movies are full of colour. It makes me happy✨)

2. The references to the comic! It's rightful that the story differences from it, but I liked the little references, like the tree with red and blue leaves!!

And also during the last confrontation with Krem, I think they were hinting to the first panel, with the hills and the sunset, and I was like aaaaaaah yes.

3. Then, the scream. It was just. Perfect. I loved it. The music the light Milly's performance 💔

4. The flashback for the story of Krypton! I think it was executed in a really good way I felt so emotional

5. The bus scene was really satisfying! I was pretty eager to see how exactly they managed to deal with the, you know, the big sparkling space dragon, and well I really liked the solution they found with the bandits! It served the story pretty well.

6. I don't care what others said, I appreciated the needle drop. As a way to show what was going on in Ruthye's head and her perspective, I really liked it.

7. The ending! I was delightfully surprised; I believe it was a good shift from the comic for Milly Alcock's Kara, it fit her character better than the comic's ending could have.

8. Milly Alcock's acting was phenomenal, and that's a fact.

9. Now, stupid thing, but Ruthye's hair?? GORGEOUS. That braid was just chef kiss

10. The universe was just beautiful to the eyes; I don't care the CGI maybe wasn't that good, but the result was pleasant anyway. It was just really fun to watch!

Steven Spielberg, you did it. Dammit, what a movie.

Vengeance. 🦇
