The Howling Commandos Cast Talking About Their Characters.

Dear Mr Schmidt

I really think you need to brush up on your mythology here. Do you even know what a hydra looks like?

This is a hydra. Its defining features are its one tail and many, many heads.

So what the fuck is this supposed to be?

That, Mr Schmidt, is a fucking octopus. Its defining features are its ONE head and many LEGS.

You literally could not have gotten this more wrong.

Bucky, speaking into his arm that is recording: Day 14 in the Soul Stone, so far no notable incidents, people are finding various ways to amuse themselves. Right now the tree creature is singing “I am groot” to the tune of “Despacito”, the greatest song of all time according to Spider-Boy. I can not detect any animosity between peopl-

Peter, following Sam: But why a falcon…why not… let’s say… an ostrich?

Bucky: Correction, Sam Wilson is about to murder a minor. I have to go.

How the Winter Soldier shot Nick Fury

I’ve been wanting to make a post about this for a while, even though I might be the only person invested in this, but anyway, here we go. I’ve seen mentioned several times, in posts about the movie and in fics that the Winter Soldier shot Nick Fury through the window of Steve’s apartment, and every time it makes me groan in frustration because no.

The Winter Soldier didn’t shoot Fury through a window, he shot him through a wall, and I don’t know about you, but it seems like a pretty big difference to me.

(bullet hole in the wall!!)

When I saw the scene the first time, I remember thinking holy shit??? that’s crazy, and for me that’s when the Winter Soldier really became a real, terrifyingly good assassin, that’s when his image as a serious threat solidified.

She allows herself to envision a clean journey back. A miserable hike, nothing the Black Widow can’t handle, then debrief, and then collapsing on her couch and not leaving her apartment for two days. Recharge time. Every great spy needs it.

Sunburn was not something she had given any particular thought to.

Natasha’s certainly thinking about it now.

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

Honestly, I don't think at any point Steve and Tony were friends. Maybe some comradery between allies but never true friends. But it is kinda funny to imagine that Tony is so used to his friends, Pepper, Rhodie and Happy staring at him with dead inside eyes constantly annoyed with antics that he didn't understand that when it came to Steve that wasn't a friendship when he did it

I'm now imagining Steve rolling his eyes and giving him that Disappointed Rogers™ look and Stark thinking they're now friends because everyone in his life has the same reaction to his bullshit 😂

They were never friends and I don't care what the Russos tried to claim in CW and subsequent movies. "He's my friend" - "So was I". Uh... when? When he kept the truth about Ultron? When he kept discussing his experience during the invasion as if the rest of the team hadn't been there too and were probably traumatized by it as well? When he made jokes at Steve's expense even though he had just been out of the ice for a couple weeks? When he refused to listen to him in the airport in Germany? When he declined to inform him of the Accords even though he knew about them beforehand and knew Steve, as an enhanced, would be directly targeted by them? When he almost murdered Bucky because he wanted to hurt Steve?

And those are only a few, there are more. I don't see a friendship there.

A point could be made that this is true for the entire Avengers team. TWS was a breath of fresh air as it gave us Steve, Nat and Sam as a group of actual friends and that was carried out until the end (even though I'm still pissed that Sam is not allowed to say anything about Nat, he never mentions her, I don't like that). But the others? Besides Steve and Bucky, the other relationships are romances: Wanda and Vis, Clint and Laura, Nat and Bruce. Thor seemed somewhat closer to Steve than anyone else but they never quite explored that -- which is a huge shame because in the comics they're AMAZING.

With Steve and Stark we're told they were friends and EG tries to paint them even closer but that's utter bullshit. They were co-workers who tolerated each other only when they needed to. I mean, who was Steve hanging out with at the party in AoU? Sam and Thor.

“wanda, just like we practiced!” aka bring your kid to work day i drew these two a lot after civil waR

An old silly sketch (Most of the costume details were taken from my mind /ᐠ - ˕ -マ )

So this is very random and more or less a 'crack treated seriously' idea but I keep thinking of it every time I listen to the Captain America movie soundtracks.

AU where the serum gives Steve the ability to hear the 'soundtrack' around him. Of course he doesn't tell anyone because it'd make him look like he's crazy but he slowly catches on to what seems to be happening.

He picks up the USO dances really fast

He legendary at knowing when something bad is going to happen because he can hear the boss music

He's unconsciously good at timing his 'heroic' moves and moments since he can hear the pace pick up

He can vibe check someone instantly

Just imagine:

Steve on a mission with the Commandos: *Hydra music starts playing*

Steve: Ah, great we got company

Commandos: ???

Steve in the car with Natasha and Sam: *Winter Soldier track starts playing*

Steve: oh no

Everyone: How do you always get so pumped up for missions?

Steve: *bopping along to the action music*

*Pierce's character gets introduced with concerning undertones in the orchestra*

Steve: I don't like you

Steve in the elevator with the STRIKE team: *ominous music growing*

Steve: sigh

even just in the platonic sense the steve bucky dynamic has so untapped potential that marvel continuously lets go to waste by letting them say one line to each other per movie. srsly tho!!!! these bitches are early childhood friends. they legitimately know everything about each other. they’ve seen each other at high points low points what the fuck pal??? points, they know every embarrassing story by heart, they must have so many inside jokes, nothing is weird for them. they can be brutally horribly rudely honest with one another & get away with it. They fight , physically and verbally, and will knock sense into each other. or!! on the flip side they come up with the stupidest shit and get each other in trouble on purpose. the interactions are endless and unique and marvel is ridiculous to not make use of this. their default emotion/friendship setting is not pain!!!!
