I shouldn’t be allowed to watch movies or get on the internet or anything.
I watched Captain America with my classmate and opened like 20 tabs just doing research on stuff during the movie.

Iron Man: Mark VII
historymiss:
seizure7:
I have just watched Avengers 4 times and I ain’t even sorry.
Interesting things to note about the capabilities of the Mark VII vs. Mark VI (by the way: here’s some visuals for what I’m going to talk about):
Tony’s HUD now has two DISTINCTIVE modes. Unlike his Mark VI where everything is in blue, the Mark VII HUD’s normally blue interface spins to the left to replaced...

Tony: Yeah…Last time we experimented on Bruce, Fury got pretty pissed off.
((ooc: For sharadaskye’s question, “Nick Fury catches you two in the lab, what have you been doing to warrant his attention?” and the 5 or 6 that asked what would happen if Bruce or Tony were “de-aged”. The original is completely based off of this: [x] ))

– Evil Supply Company official press release August 30, 2012 at 12:56 PM Central, USA (via evilsupplyco)
Gothic Charm School and the Evil Bunny Alliance support this news. Yes. (Actually, we want the official Halloween season to be much longer, but this is a good start.)

Can we talk about how much I hate the word “phallic” when applied to architectural rhetoric discussions
What if the “sublime vastness” you’re studying is how fucking cavernous something is?

Theming in Avengers a.k.a. Diane got distracted
a.k.a. a few thoughts I had the fourth and siiiixth? time I saw this movie
a.k.a. why I love the designers of these films
You get kind of my train-of-thought on this but honestly when do you not.
Okay so we’re going to start with THE SHIELD LOGOS.
(Heheh I’ve been playing around with my tablet a little, too.)
The logo on the left is from The Incredible Hulk movie, when SHIELD is...

No, You Can't Have a Batcave in Malibu
thisisevenharderthannamingablog:
Because I have lost my mind and started writing fanfic, I was watching Iron Man recently with the sound off so I could refresh my memory on the details of the house. I, er, got sucked into it a bit and couldn’t decide if this is really interesting set design or just really weird. More fuel for the What the Hell Even is Tony engines.
Warning, this is LONG. Also,...

Every time I remember that
Raiders is a subtext in Captain America, and
Tom Hiddleston geeked out over working with Spielberg (and getting a John Williams theme), and
Chris Hemsworth fucking NAMED HIS DAUGHTER AFTER INDIANA JONES
I die a little bit out of perfection.

Speculation surrounding Arc Reactor Technology and...
scratch-the-maven:
So me and my friend have been talking about some connections and weird coincidences that surround Tony Stark’s arc reactor and the Tesseract in the Marvel movieverse. Maybe it’s out there, but some of the similarities are eerie enough to give all of this a good thought. This is a pretty lengthy theory, so click that “read more” if your interest is spiked.

The Audience is the thing
ernestoriley:
One of the reasons I love Shakespeare so much is that he trusted his audience was smart enough to keep up . Nowadays, Hollywood - with few exceptions of course - has the poor habit of not trusting the audiences intelligence and begins the process of bogging down its prose with poor exposition; and in this process of catering to the lowest common denominator, they create a...

I spy with my little eye~ a comma
pyrrhovo asked: I'm excited for the S.H.I.E.L.D. show BUT not as much as everyone else ~because~ Whedon was confirmed only to write the pilot (so far). I know, we all expect that they'll keep him on board the whole ride, but I'm still jaded over Firefly and refuse to get my hopes up too high :c /pout

I’m still reeling
by the way I caught a musical cue in Incredible Hulk that sounded a lot like a certain ending scene in Avengers
which means one I will probably buy the soundtrack and two GODDAMNIT SILVESTRI YOU MOTHERFUCKING GENIUS
