Agent Coulson is down
#gif warning #avengers #okay but why does nOBODY EVER TALK ABOUT THE GENERATION GAP #come on guys this is the MOST INTERESTING THING #look if steve had lived through the war he would have been part of that post-wwii generation #imagine steve in the 60S GUYS #you think he would have put up with those young folks disrespecting those soldiers and his country by protesting the war? HECK NO #remember that scene at the beginning of ca:tfa where he tells off that guy in the movie theater? THAT WOULD BE STEVE IN THE 60S #and tony is in his 40s!! tony is gen x! tony is NOT EVEN A BOOMER #tony is TOO YOUNG TO BE A BABY BOOMER tony is YOUNGER THAN OUR PARENTS #tony doesn’t know what it’s like to live in a country that’s in total war! tony doesn’t know what it’s like for loyalty to your country t… #to be something that almost everyone has! #look guys we make fun of america ALL THE TIME we mock patriotism and nationalism and the usa CON STANT LY #when steve hears the word soldier he equates it with the word hero #and when tony hears the word soldier he hears an insult. #because steve’s war is wwii #and tony’s wars are vietnam and iraq and afghanistan and tony knows that when america fights wars it is not necessarily the good guy! #and steve cannot even BEGIN to comprehend that #steve barely knows what WATERGATE is for god’s sake steve probably still trusts the government #steve doesn’t know about jfk conspiracy theories! steve doesn’t know about the patriot act #(and let me remind you that in 616 canon steve actually fought a war to bring down the expy!patriot act) #god america has grown up SO MUCH since steve’s day #americans are sarcastic and cynical and plugged into the media 24/7 #americans depricate themselves constantly americans hate america more than anybody else does #pearl harbor turned america into a unified force for change in the world; 9/11 turned america into something paranoid and bitter #steve no longer represents america #he represents what america wishes it had ever been #and tony? tony understands the usa a whole lot better than steve does and he knows it and steve never will #and tony understands how war can destroy and steve only understands how it can save #holy christ why would you write porn when you could write about that

#steve is like what #someone’s playing galaga #wait i don’t know what galaga is #shit what if it’s important #is it a sport #is it a band #is it a board game #like monopoly #(thank god they still have monopoly) #god i’d better just look #it’s behind me isn’t it #there is nothing behind me #GOSH DARN IT 21ST CENTURY
Awww, poor Steve Rogers. He has no idea what is going on ever.
I hope someone pulled Steve aside later and told him what Galaga was.
Awww, bb.
#ugh this scene kills me #because you know if iron man or thor or cap did it they would spring up just fine and be on their merry way #but clint #you don’t see clint for another ten fucking minutes in the movie#he’s probably laying there in dire pain for most of it #LIKE UGH #he knows he’s only human but that never stops him from being extraordinary and I just #let me kiss your face you perfect character thanks
Caw? Caw?
Yeah well neither do I, go talk to uncle Thor.
I will never not reblog this
And then Clint pops out dressed as Robin Hood and UNCONTROLLABLY EXCITED
When I was re-watching this movie for perhaps the sixth time, I picked up on a tiny detail that I had missed the first few times. Just one line, one line that was muttered off to the side. One line that made my heart break.
As a child, Bruce’s father physically abused his mother, striking fear and anger in a young Bruce’s heart. He always hoped that maybe one day, if he had children, he would be nothing like his father. He would love his children unconditionally, and do everything a good father would.
But then he was caught in a blast of gamma radiation and was cursed to transform in times of stress and rage into a monster that was capable of so much destruction.
He lives in a constant state of panic, always wary that the monster inside him will erupt, and therefore he can’t form meaningful bonds with anyone. He realised that because of his curse, he’ll never be able to have children of his own.
