Just Heard A Local Radio Station Talking About The President's Who Came From Ohio. When They Got To The

Why Red Dawn(1984) is a good movie

•The movie shows guerilla warfare accurately, and the various ways a small group of people can successfully attack a larger group.

•The Wolverines are the main characters but they are NOT always shown as the Good Guys.

•The Soviet Union is the invading army but its soldiers are shown to be just regular human guys several times throughout the film.

•The movie is not your typical America-Is-the-Best war film. The Wolverines are not soldiers, they have not been trained, they don't make impassioned speeches about how they are the Good Guys and that America Is the Best.

•Several of the characters show signs of serious psychological trauma as the storyline progresses, one of them turning into a danger to his fellow Wolverines and another who by the end of his storyline finds his surviving the war to be impossible.

•6 OF THE 8 CHARACTERS DIE. WHICH SHOULD HAPPEN IN A WAR MOVIE.

No matter how many times I’ve rewatched it, I still feel a thrill whenever I hear Thirteen referred to as Doctor. The gender doesn’t matter at all-- Jodie was fantastic!

‘I never wanted that day to end.’

I think my love and adoration of the Twelfth Doctor can be summed up in the fact that he’s the only Doctor I can imagine who would, without a hint of fear or angst-ridden pathos, respond to a Dalek with an exasperated, eyerolling “Oh for fuck’s sake.”

Ya’ll, I happened across the classical piece ‘Devil’s Trill Sonata’ by Tartini for the first time (don’t know how I didn’t know about it before), and I found THIS GEM in the comments:

I’m FUCKING DYING send help.

Only the Master would kill a future self, and only both versions of the Master would laugh about it.

On another note, I freaking ADORE Missy.

'Nuff said.

Dear Avengers fandom:

Here’s the thing about Steve Rogers; he is not a delicate little flower. He is not really at all about patriotism, and you could even argue he’s not really about America, at least not exclusively. He is an extremely charismatic and intelligent leader, though he does sometimes have his faults when it comes to that. He’s a complex and compelling character, and when you distill his characteristics into a single, innocent, naive, cookie-cutter narrative, it honestly weakens the interesting aspects of who he is.

He is not completely ignorant about sex, sarcasm, or swearing. Steve Rogers frequently has sex, often initiates it, has an extremely dry sense of humor, and swears a lot, especially under stress. While he loves America, he’s slightly cynical because of how much it has changed since his time, and how he never asked to defend a time period that isn’t his.

His main things, however, are nobility and loyalty. He does what he thinks is right, even if it goes against the government, even if it involves violence or killing. He does what needs to be done, even if he doesn’t want to do so. He’s only human, after all.

I know that MCU Steve is different than comics Steve, but using the lack of MCU development to distill his character into an unfairly flat one is simply not something that should happen.
