The banter between Barnes and Barton in Tales of Suspense is fucking flawless.
A limited run is not enough!!!
I can’t fucking get enough of these two.
OH MY GOD
WHAT
WHO
HOW
I WAS NOT INFORMED?!???!?
One of my favorites! It makes me happy to see this sampled and shared, may it be savored and loved by all who come upon it.
I really tried hard to post enough to give people a taste without spoiling the actual story. I can hardly wait for the conclusion!!!! The suspense is killing me.
marvel is disney’s forever cash cow! it appeals to children, teens, and sweaty adults! it’s all quite loud and colorful, with the same safe formula every time, but with different directors and tweaks to make it whatever the fuck memorable each time. plus the reliance on violence to push the plot will give them those dank US military checks until explosions go extinct. truly we live in horrific times but i don’t really care
thank u all for letting me know the military quit cutting checks for the MCU after Avengers because they got offended bc the fictional magic men are an alternative to the american military. i’m sorry i was misinformed but more importantly that’s really, really, really, really, really fucking funny
Really (about military)?😕 I am not even surprise because Captain America The Winter Soldier is lowkey critic of it.
Okay military meta time friends. I’ve been meaning to take this one on for a while but I’m in the field at 2337 after a crazy long day on my best behavior around high ranking brass because my CO/BFF sent me on a cherry assignment so I am warn out, and I’m gonna make this short.
When this gif set first came out it simply said predator mode engaged. Then it was changed to hunting module. I reblogged both because I love this fucking gif: both are prime examples of a nonfiring actor correctly emulating behavior of a firer. Seb has played a soldier before and he is good at correctly emulating the distinct way we move when constantly carrying a deadly weapon. Chris evans, btw, is baaaad at that.
However the more recent reblogs of this gif set come with the additional commentary about similarities between the way Bucky moves and the way Winter moves. And from a professional standpoint I can instinctually bit emphatically tell you that the similarities are few and the differences are astronomical. Other than basic weapons and tactical proficiency, Bucky and Winter could not move more differently if they tried.
For one, Bucky lacks the thousand mile stare, whereas that’s all Winter has. Bucky is very focused on the moment, the present, the target right in front of him—the one posing a threat. Its why he gets caught by surprise several times in close combat in that scene. Buck is a sniper. He devotes everything to one point of a focus at a time. He pivots as such. His face shows microreactions as he takes in details of his surroundings one by one. He’s still very situationlly aware, but not simultaneously.
Winter /hunts/. His eyea don’t flicker everywhere and his body language and firing posture doesn’t shift a hundred times minutely like Bucky’s does because rather than focus with a sniper’s POV he sees the whole picture. He’s taking everything in at once. Hence the rhousand mile stare.They could not be more different.
Plus that fact that Bucky has good trigger discipline (you can see it in other gifs) and the WS has his finger clamped down over the trigger. He is ready to shoot to kill at ANY GIVEN SECOND, which Bucky is not.
Reblogging again for the new commentary
I would dearly love to see this gifset and meta updated after Infinity War—to see how Sebstan’s most recent performances hold up.
I’ll do an update for Infinity Wars. Thanks for the follow!
Thanos is a weak ass bitch of a villain because ever since killmonger I need all my villains to pull up with some style, looks, a certain je ne sais quoi. Killmonger stole a thousand year old artifact and wore it as armor and wore solid gold fangs. What did Thanos wear? The same body armor for hundreds of years and a dumb glove that wasn’t even designer
People are all like “he’s an alien” like so was Hela and she pulled up with some iconic goth looks, Chanel horned helmet, a beautiful smokey eye, nails that could cut diamonds, Thanos has no excuse fashion is universal
I think this might be my favorite scene from the movie.
I just realized Bucky has never seen aliens before this. He’s only ever dealt with super soldiers and impressive tech. So, you know he wakes up from his lovely cryo nap, they slap a new arm on him, and then they’re like “Here’s an actual god, aliens, and a talking raccoon that wants the arm we literally just gave you after the dude whose parents you killed blew off your last one” and his tired gay ass is just like
