Make That 1995-2001

Levana: Why does everyone always assume the worst of me?

Cinder: Because it saves time.

BEST. VIDEO. EVER.

sacrifice plays tony stark has been willing to make (and has made) in the mcu:

iron man 1: commanded pepper to blow up the stark industries roof with him still on it in order to stop ironmonger, knowing it could potentially kill him as well 

avengers: flew a nuke through a wormhole into space on a suicide mission in order to destroy the chitauri armada and save the world

iron man 3: in a deleted scene, tony took out his arc reactor to use as a defibrillator to save a young boy’s life, and went into cardiac arrest as the shrapnel crawled further and further towards his heart 

age of ultron: placed himself underneath a falling city to blow it up before it caused global destruction, knowing he may not walk away 

infinity war: begged strange not to trade the time stone away to spare his life after thanos had impaled him and was about to finish him off with the gauntlet

endgame: wielded the infinity stones to turn thanos and his entire army to dust, knowing the price was his own life

sacrifice plays thor has been willing to make in the mcu:

thor 1: offered his life in exchange for loki to cease his attack on the town and his newfound friends

infinity war: risked killing himself in order to forge stormbreaker for the chance to kill thanos

endgame: practically begged to put the gauntlet on to snap everybody back before tony stopped him because he wasn’t in any mental condition to make that choice

sacrifice plays natasha romanoff has been willing to make (and has made) in the mcu:

aou: was willing to stay on sokovia and die with everybody she thought they wouldn’t be able to save before fury surprised them with the helicarrier

endgame: sacrificed her own life on vormir to give the team the chance to bring everybody thanos dusted back

sacrifice plays clint barton has been willing to make in the mcu:

aou: shielded the young boy in his arms with his own body when ultron started shooting in their direction

endgame: was also willing to sacrifice his own life on vormir but natasha beat him to it

endgame: could be argued that offering himself up as the guinea pig for the time travel test run was a form of a sacrifice play 

sacrifice plays bruce banner has been willing to make in the mcu:

ragnarok: changed into hulk to help thor save asgard, risking relinquishing all control to hulk, knowing he may never be able to turn back

endgame: wielded the gauntlet to bring everybody back, at great physical cost (he didn’t even know for sure if he’d even survive it)

sacrifice plays steve rogers has been willing to make in the mcu:

the first avenger: jumped on a (fake) grenade

the first avenger: flew a plane into the arctic to save his country

i really don’t understand why steve is painted as the noble, self-sacrificing hero when the rest of the avengers have actually been willing to make more sacrifice plays than he has?? steve isn’t even in the top half of the list!! tony has first place with the amount of times he’s been willing to lay his life on the line to save others yet he’s often painted as selfish and egotistical. post-tfa, steve legit became all talk. in endgame, he told everybody else to do “whatever it takes” while not really putting in the same effort himself. and in the end, he just went back in time and rewarded himself with a long happy life, abandoning everybody else in the present. he got everything back, while; tony sacrificed his life and left behind a family, nat sacrificed her life for clint’s family, thor had to accept his entire family and best friends are all dead, and bruce has to live with a physical handicap and the loss of nat. honestly, don’t talk to me about how noble and morally superior captain america is because endgame proved that he kinda isn’t… 

Best. Video. Ever.

Literally nothing will ever be as satisfying as the 4 minute long fight sequence in Kingsman: The Secret Service, in which Colin Firth mercilessly wastes an entire Westboro Basptist Church like congregation as the guitar solo from Lynard Skynard’s 1973 anthem Freebird plays in the background.

Phil Coulson is turning over in his grave right now

Avengers Assemble!

Although I like how the bathroom-fight in HBP turned out I always wondered how everything would have gone if it wasn’t Harry that had walked in:

Draco heard the door open, he quickly turned around, wand positioned. His eyes were red and puffy and his cheeks were stained with tears. He gasped when he saw who had just walked in. From all the people he thought it could’ve been, from Potter to some second year that just had to go to the bathroom, this was not who he had expected in the least. In the doorway stood a little startled Minerva McGonall. Draco was quickly trying to wipe away the tears, but that didn’t help much. Then he immediately stopped when a clear voice rang through the room. “Mister Malfoy, what’s wrong?” He felt stunned. He suddenly forgot how to speak and tried to mutter something about how he was fine, but the woman didn’t give up. It pained her that a boy, a student of hers, was being hurt this bad. “Mister Malfoy, I can see when someone is ‘fine’ and this certainly isn’t the case.” And with that Draco just gave up. He gave up trying to hide his emotions, he gave up trying to keep his secrets, he gave up being strong, because if anything, he has never felt weaker. So he started talking, you could almost call it yelling, but he didn’t have the energy to yell. He told her about his dark mark and that he was a death eater, he told her about making fun of the golden trio, he told her about Voldemort living in his house and he told her about his mission to kill Dumbledore. After he was done ranting he was out of breath and fell to the floor. He sat in a fetal position with his knees to his chest and his face in his hands. He couldn’t bare to look at the professor knowing that he would probably be expelled after this. Minerva was still shocked by the information she just got. However, this was not what her mind was with. She was actually thinking of how this broken boy reminded her of someone. Someone who also had troubles at home, a rather abusive and unsupportive family and had followed Lord Voldemort. That person had became a death eater and as soon as he realised what he had done, the mistake that he had made, he had came to her. The boy that Draco reminded her of, was none other than Regulus Black. He had followed the wrong side and regretted it. But she hadn’t been able to save him. She is able to save the boy in front of her. Draco, who was still crying and waiting for the storm, wondering why it didn’t come, was startled when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up and through his tears he saw professor McGonagall standing over him with a small, sad smile. He dried his eyes a little, confused to why she wasn’t getting angry with him. She then spoke. “Come to my office, we have to talk about this, I’m going to help you.” He processed this and the slowly nodded his head, stunned that he wasn’t packing yet. He did one last attempt to dry his tears and then Minerva removed he hand to give him some space. He slowly stood up and grabbed his bag. Then he followed the lady towards her office, wondering what would happen next.
