I mentioned before some of my favorite character designs in the world of comics and have been meaning to tackle this subject again. I came to realize, however, that “character design” is itself a fairly massive subject, and that it would be best to break the topic down…
Today my mom wasn’t home, so my eight year old sister asked me to set some words for her so she could write her daily sentences. I knew she did them every day, but I’ve never bothered to read them before.
My sister is a lot of things. She’s extremely smart, fairly quiet, and absolutely hilarious. But today I learned two new things about her:
a) my sister does not have a way with the written word
b) my sister is addicted to crack cocaine
I don’t know what the fuck she’s smoking but I want in on it sweet baby jesus I did not know what to do with myself while I was reading some of these
what is wrong with her
I don’t even understand what some of these mean
(things you should know: I am natalie, and her “silkys” are two little silk & velveteen blankets she’s slept with since she was born.)
rape culture means that if I don’t trust strange men, I’m a bitch, they’re not going to hurt me, stop being paranoid.
it also means if i’m attacked by strangers I should have been more careful, why was I out after dark, don’t I know what happens to girls on their own?
it’s when men tell me to smile sweetheart, look pretty, I’m here for public consumption.
and my tight jeans may be grounds for letting a rapist walk away free.
deleted scene (x)
Now this. THIS is a scene where I think Loki allows his true feelings for his brother to cloud his judgement. This is a scene where we see that Thor cares for Loki, and that Loki in turn, cares for Thor- it would have been much better for him not to go along with the plan- to plant the seed and ‘jump ship’ before it was too late. To let the usually egotistical, one-man-show of a brother of his, to go to Jotunheim all alone, and face the consequences in much the same way.
I don’t think it’s reluctance, or fear for his plans going awry that we see in the ‘what?’, in that expression… no. It’s genuine surprise. His brother, who has always been so strong, so capable of standing on his own - such a show off - didn’t even think it needed saying that his younger, obviously weaker, brother would be by his side in this battle. Loki is the one person Thor feels will be beside him without anything needing to be said; Thor needs Loki beside him- needs the reassurance of his brother’s presence (as we saw in the earlier deleted scene also - in which our ‘vain’ Thor asks Loki’s opinion of how he looks), and I think, perhaps, this is a moment in which, through all of his jealousy, all of his insecurities, Loki sees that, too.
Even just for this breif moment, before he returns to being a douche, Loki and Thor share a beautiful brotherly moment, and that wall of self-loathing Loki shrouds himself with disappears, for Thor and only Thor.
George R. R. Martin, on reviewing the Avengers. [SOURCE]
Okay, George, I do totally agree with your earlier assessment of Hawkeye. I’ll give you that he didn’t have enough screentime to get proper development. But no. I can’t even let you finish, there will be no finishing of the Kanye West meme here. WERE WE WATCHING THE SAME FILM?
I don’t want to automatically fall back on the “you think she’s just eye candy, because you’re a male” argument, because that’s unfair. Fuck, you write some really damned decent females yourself (all things considered). But honestly? No. No, we were not watching the same film.
“JUST THERE?” Uh, did you not see any of her development at all, or were you just waiting for the men to come in and steal the show? This is the same character who is the only one to get decent information when everyone else is too busy arguing over stupid personal bullshit. This is the same character who has a conversation with Loki and doesn’t lose her cool. This is the same character jumping onto alien warcraft and beating these assholes at their own game. This is the same character saving the motherfucking day by racing off to beat Loki while all the boys are too busy playing house with the alien army.
Don’t tell me she was just there. That she was just eye candy. She was one of the most important motherfucking characters in the entire film, and it saddens me when reviews degrade Johansson’s performance simply because she isn’t one of the guys. And why do all of these reviews seem to come from long time comics fans, 90% of the time all male? You do realize that the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a canon into itself and doesn’t actually follow the comics the way you’re claiming it should? That characters were changed and updated to fit with current audiences and currently relevant plots? Laying this all on Black Widow’s origins not adding up right is just plain silly at this point in the MCU game. (A game you don’t seem to be playing well, G.R.R.M.)

25 abandoned Yugoslavia monuments that look like they’re from the future
“These structures were commissioned by former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito in the 1960s and 70s to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place or where concentration camps stood. They were designed by different sculptors and architects, conveying powerful visual impact to show the confidence and strength of the Socialist Republic. In the 1980s, these monuments attracted millions of visitors per year, especially young pioneers for their ‘patriotic education.’ After the Republic dissolved in early 1990s, they were completely abandoned, and their symbolic meanings were forever lost. From 2006 to 2009, Kempenaers toured around the ex-Yugoslavia region with the help of a 1975 map of memorials, bringing before our eyes a series of melancholy yet striking images.”
