the ending of Thor 2 is even better with the knowledge that Loki was evil-smiling at the end over his diabolical plan to force Asgard……… into community theater
I refuse to acknowledge any canon other than: Loki has been planning the great community theater takeover ever since he realized conquering other planets required working with the sort of unsavory people that make you stop your skincare routine and every single action he takes in Thor 2 should be read with this end goal in mind
EVERY TIME he has a plotty face in Thor 2 it’s because he’s mentally updating his casting list or making shopping lists with things like: green silk, posterboard, acrylic paint, glitter (craft and cosmetic), grapes
I’m the freak who watched Thor, the first Avengers movie, and Thor 2 and remembered that this is a trickster god, he has his reasons and those reasons aren’t “I’m a villain, whoo!” and therefore those reasons being community theatre and various supplies are totally valid.
there’s something poetic about the idea of surviving the most inhospitable environment in the universe and the several-mile fall from it through the power of technology and then being lain low by a fucking bear
I skipped the last part the first time I read this, and I genuinely thought they were carrying weapons to defend themselves from wolves and bears in space. Because you never know where the wildlife might be lurking, right?
honestly my favorite new phenomenon is the haiku bot coming in at the end of super serious posts. it’s like watching a supervillain come to a crushing defeat and then getting run over by a roomba.
The haikubot does not detect actual haiku. The artistry of haiku is that every line contains a thought or image that can be separated and still understood with the poem as a whole coming together to form a bigger idea or image.
The haikubot just detects sentences of 5-7-5 syllables and calls it a day. It’s an insult to the art form. Reading an actual haiku can be a spiritual experience.
You sound like a damn elitist bastard from the school of snobbery

^Haiku^bot^8. I detect haikus with 5-7-5 format. Sometimes I make mistakes.
Fun Fact: Apparently Oscar Wilde was 6’3”, which in the 1870s would have been the equivalent of like 6’7”-6’9” tall. He was so ridiculously huge and awkward that one of his friends described him as looking like a “great white caterpillar.” That is all.
When his lover’s father ( one of the founding father’s of boxing as a sport) showed up to kick his ass, Oscar stood up, pulled a gun and said something like
“I don’t know what the Queensberry rules are, but the Oscar Wilde rule is to shoot on sight.”
The more I find out about Oscar Wilde the more delighted I am.
Give me Superman with an awful southern accent. Give me Clark Kent sounding like he grew up on a farm (oh wait). Give me Superman the Journalist using y’all and all y’all and ain’t. Basically just give me Superman from Kansas
And DEFENDING IT.
“No, Lois, it’s not bad English. It’s a descriptive grammar theory and it serves a linguistic function.”
“C’mon, Smallville, are you really defending your use of ain’t?”
“Some of us actually went to class in college. If y’all are gonna give me a hard time about it, I’m gonna fight back.”
Clark making that “oop” noise when he bumps into inanimate objects.
actually this would be a fantastic addition to his secret identity, because if Clark had a super strong accent but Superman didn’t, it would help with the whole, hey-have-you-ever-noticed-Clark-sounds-exactly-like-Superman? thing.
also, he would totally make the oop noise. but if he accidentally bumped into an inanimate object it would probably crumple. Just picture Superman clipping a brick wall as he rounds a corner and going ‘oop’ as the wall collapses
