happy ace day everyone!!!!

Ross, he asked me to restart the Avengers.
...
Say what you need to say.
Steve made a mistake.
No, he didn't. He gave you that shield. Not because you're the strongest. But because you're you.
๐โค๏ธ
This all of this ๐๐พ๐๐พโ๐พ
Spoilers below.
Not really blown away by any of this fight choreography, or the filming of it.
Antonia says literally one line before she's killed. Imagine dragging the actress out for the premiere for this. Extras have more lines
What was it that the senator called Val's plan? Sounded like 'Guardians of Vengence propaganda'. Google translate of the subtitle said Guardians of Revenge. But can't quite hear it clearly.
Bucky wasn't as creepy as I thought he would be with Mel. But still kinda creepy. Where's the tactfulness?
Also... he does sound rather stupid
Hmm, at least Ghost calls Walker out when he says "Actually I was the official captain america"
Ghost says "Before you publically murdered an innocent man on the streets" (he says 'define innocent' ๐ก)
Walker is completely insufferable
Bob says: "I thought you said you were Captain America"
Walker: "why are you laughing"
Bob: "because you're an asshole" I like Bob.
Okay, Bucky does seem a bit creepy with Mel
When they're climbing up the shaft it would've been so easy to add the line "Would be easier if one of us had wings... you know who has wings? REAL Captain America"
Wow, Walker is a really shitty dad and husband. Divorce that man, Olivia
I hate Red Guardian
"Ahh second coming of Captain America! I too was state sponsored super soldier" ๐๐ก
Oh, Olivia did leave him. And took the kid. Good for her
Getting bored honestly
Sebastian seems bored too. His line readings are not giving
Is Sentry's suit CGI? This looks weird
Wow....this fight looks terrible!
Particularly the part where John attacks, then Bucky. Their movements are so slow and stilted, then has this CGI glaze look to it when they're thrown around. Bucky does not seem like a good fighter here
Wow knocking Bucky out with his own arm is just... mean. Plus carrying him out isn't very dignified
Yelena: "No, you know you're a piece of trash, Walker. So does your family." I like Yelena.
Okay, the first appearance of the Void was quite good. See? I can be nice.
The applause was a bit much though ๐
We really don't get to know what was in Bucky's room...or Ava's... or well I don't care about Alexei
THAT is why Bucky punches the chicken suit guy?!
I'm not really feeling this 'defeat the mind rooms with the power of friendship' thing
I'm pretty sure Void says "Robert the hero", but the subtitles said "Robert De Niro" ๐คฃ๐
This whole group hug moment might actually have meant something if we saw what the other's personal demons that they just overcame were
When did Valentina get all the press there? I saw her have the spark of the idea, but the whole city was enveloped in the void? Stupid
And the announcement is still ridiculous. I can't believe Bucky just stood there and said nothing. Should've taken a mic and done a Kanye "I'm gonna let you finish, but Sam Wilson ie Captain America, has the greatest Avengers team of ALL TIME"
And even if he didn't, in what world would Bucky not say "No, we're not the Avengers. Valentina is a crook and here's the evidence. She's trying to save her own ass. Arrest her."
Yelena saying "We own you now" How does that help? She's not going to cooperate. You can't ever trust her. She'll always have her own motives and will be trying to get rid of them.
Final thoughts
That's it? There really wasn't that much action and the fight scenes that were there were very...inert. They lacked visual interest, interesting choreography, seemed glazed in CGI despite all the promo saying how gritty and real this film was supposed to be
Overall it just seems like a very pointless movie. With pointless characters.
Yelena and Ava would maybe be nice additions to Sam's team. John and Alexei can gtfo
Bucky's sleeping on the couch until further notice.
If they were going to have Bucky damage, if not outright, destroy his best friendship with Sam over these misfits, then the film really needed to SHOW why Bucky felt invested in helping them redeem their past crimes. Currently he feels like he has no motivation or real connection to them. I literally just finished watching and I can't remember if he even exchanged dialogue with Yelena or Ava outside of group responses.
Anyway. That's it.
P.S. I stand by a prior post of mine, where I said this could've been a Captain America movie. Sam could've helped Bob just fine.
Exactlly. Is like they forgot the WH-Questions and how to answer them. Funny enough people said BNW had bad writing but what about TB? The screenwriters haven't watched Marvel before or they were 5yo ๐ค?
Somehow everything happened ๐
Am I mad that we only got told by a twitter post, as an afterthought after all the upsurge of indignation for the treatment reserved to Sam Wilson as Captain America, that he indeed had already assembled the Avengers offscreen?
YES.
Do I consider it not just sloppy and weak writing, breaking the SHOW DON'T TELL rule even the worst fanfic writer knows?
YES.
Do I think that with little minimal creative thinking, they could've used either (or both) CABNW or TB* post credit scene exactly this process?
YES.
But boy. C'mon. CABNW has its weaknesses, but this is ALL on the TB* creative team. The movie could've answered this question and many other....yet today we're still fucking wondering (and waiting for the next A/N to appear in a tweet):
WHEN the fuck did Bucky got elected?
WHY did he choose to run for Congress?
WHO eventually decided to put him there?
WHICH is exactly his role in the Congress?
HOW did he get elected?
WHERE do his political opinions and goals stand?
Did we even get any fucking explanation about this WHOLE MESS of a career?!?
NO.
Jesus. I hate to admit it, but somehow such a pathetically bad writing makes me consider actually acceptable that Somehow, Palpatine returned....
White people saying that the TB are a better family that the OG Avengers ever was is really telling tbh. I just realized that they didn't really like the Avengers to begin with, they just pretended to like them. How can you compare Jhon "I'm a psycho that killed a inocent man in broad daylight" Walker to Steve? I starting to believe that US people really have the comprehension skills of a 6yo child. Get the fuck out of here with your shitty avengerzzz.
