When U Scratch A Cat’s Chin And They Lift Their Head Up Reblog If U Agree

a pre-war stucky cuddle :^)

so what you’re telling me is Princess Mia is gonna come in riding the Stang and take down Thanos…

Okay, I can dig it…

When I first fell in love with Spider-Man as a child it was because he was funny.

Whilst Superman and Batman might have cracked the odd joke, they were mostly pretty sober and straight arrow about their business.

Spidey though, he was the guy who you could guarantee would throw out a snarky quip to mock his enemies or sardonically reflect upon his lot in life.

That was what hooked me into him and made me then see all the other wonderful things about him and his world. Although I couldn’t lift a bus or swing from a web, I could crack a joke or two.

Although a sense of humour wasn’t devoid in other Marvel heroes, it was much more pronounced Spider-Man to the point where it was a genuine ingrained character trait. It is as iconic a part of what makes Spider-Man Spider-Man as the webs or the spider bite or anything.

And the thing is…that was all Stan Lee.

No. I do not just mean he was the guy responsible for most if not all of the dialogue so he gets the credit for that.

I mean…that was literally Stan’s personality.

Stan put a part of himself into all his characters but it’s unofficially agreed upon he put more into Peter Parker than his other creations.

Peter was in part Stan’s author avatar playing out a superhero melodrama of life experiences Stan himself dealt with or had witnessed. Even his intended wife, Gwen Stacy, was based upon Stan’s own life Joan (who ironically if you read up on her sounds more like Mary Jane who wound up being Spider-Man’s actual wife).

This especially applied to his sense of humour. A greater sense of humour flavoured the Marvel heroes in a very different way to the DC ones, but in Spider-Man’s case it went beyond that. As I said it was an ingrained trait within him because it was an ingrained trait within Stan himself.

Read or watch any given interview or statement by Stan and 99% of the time you will find more than a few jokes, wisecracks or bits of snark.

Compare if you will Spider-Man’s jokes…

To Stan Lee’s rapid quips in any given interview.

They are so similar because Peter was Stan and Stan was Peter.

lemme talk about how much i love the Winter Soldier theme again.

first: i think its basically what Buckys head sounds like. screaming, metallic sounds. that bit in the beginning - ever been somewhere dead silent and get that loud hum in your ears? it sounds like that to me. its a great way to represent how completely alone and isolated he is. the radio-static with the distorted talking,  maybe its memories being completely distorted to the point he cant tell what they’re saying.

BUT this is the gorgeous part of it:

so, its been theorized that the metallic sounding scream is actually Bucky screaming as he falls from the train, but slowed down and stretched out with heavy filtering.

lemme tell you why thats got to be true. first, how beyond perfect?? its taking something thats *Bucky*, something he did while he was still himself. a very human sound, full of fear and shit. its taking that -just like Bucky- and turning it into something inhuman and metallic.

also, that even though he’s been turned into a cold, calculating killing machine, the machine is still screaming.

when you get your first look at Bucky, when he pulls the goggles off, what do you hear? the scream. you see his face a bit on the rooftop scene, but good enough as to tell its Bucky. but there we get a closeup of his eyes, and its sort of like the last time we saw him and the first since then are being tied together.

and ok, holy shit, i tried listening to it on my headphones, closed my eyes to focus…and had to open them because its just such a fucking terrifying song i got freaked xD

but think about that. you’re not suppose to know its Bucky yet. you’re suppose to be afraid of this dude, and the music seriously adds to that. but, in reality, its not the Winter Soldier thats scary, its what was done to him. the thing thats freaking you out is his terrified screams

now, ok, maybe its not that i could be wrong.

…except im not.

listen, listen! play the song. listen very carefully at the tail end of the first scream. you can hear Steve yell “Bucky!”.

and what is so bleeding brilliant is that, even though its heavily filtered too, its much less filtered than the rest. its the only thing that sounds remotely organic and human in the whole thing. basically, the one thing still human in Buckys mind is Steve.

on that note: does anyone think they know what the static/radio sounding voices are saying? i need fresh ears

anyways here the song xD (the thing im sure is Steve is about 0:25 seconds in. verrry faint gotta turn that bitch up)

ctto.
