Forgive me if there's something in the comics that makes these opinions obsolete or something, I haven't read all Marvel comics, but-
I think it's ridiculous that the MCU made Asgardians aliens rather than actual gods. Especially given that they made Egyptian gods canon later with Moon Knight.
First of all, if you're gonna make some of them gods, why not make all of them gods? That doesn't make sense? Second, someone pointed this out in a post I saw some time ago, but based on the timeline and the canon ages of the characters, it makes no sense. According to that 'canon' timeline, Loki would've been a child during the time the Norse would've known about them to create stories, which doesn't align at all. So even without the Egyptian gods, it makes no sense.
Yeah, yeah, I get it, the 'Eternals' and shit, but like-... really? Maybe I'm biased just because I know the original runs had the Asgardians as actual gods with immortality and everything, but that makes far more sense to me then the MCU handles it. I'm just saying.
I could go on multiple tangents about stuff in the MCU, especially about stuff after Phase 3, but honestly, I would really rather pretend Phase 4+ doesn't exist and just keep my imperfect, but still fun, Phases three and below (Minus Ragnarok).
Please Reblog, I wanna see what most people's general consensus is. Jukebox musicals, for reference, are musicals that include already-existing songs, rather than original ones. (The Book Of Life and Moulin Rouge for example.)
I love how Across the Spiderverse basically went out of its way to say that things like the spider society and the TVA are fascist. That's my favorite thing, lmao.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I got major 'We don't talk about the MCU in this household' vibes from Across the Spiderverse. They made reference to it, yeah, but it felt more like it was a joke than anything else. (Which I appreciate, because modern MCU is trash.)
Not Hobie Brown being suddenly added to my list of favorite Marvel characters, lol. (Along with Pavitr Prabhakar, oh my god.)
Excellent. Kind of wish it didn't end on a cliffhanger, but if that's what you have to do to tell the story well, I'm more than willing to wait on what happens next.
I finally caught back up on The Dragon Prince, and I gotta say, I'm glad the newer seasons got rid of that odd and awkward pacing and writing issue that the fourth season had.
Also... (MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE DRAGON PRINCE SEASON 3, 5, & 6)
Not me crying while Viren sacrificed himself to cast the cinder heart spell. Damn-
Not me also crying during Aaravos' flashback with his daughter, oh my god. They really had to have him tell her to 'close her eyes', didn't they? (Also, I'm not the only one who suspects Leola had autism, right?)
I also didn't expect how much blood was in these two seasons. WOW. What age is this series geared towards again? TV-Y7? First Viren gets stabbed in the chest in season 3, now there's a bunch of blood spread in a ritualistic rite for dark magic? Yikes! (Also, in season 3, Soren stabbed Viren in the heart, right? Now Soren has Viren perform dark magic that requires a rune in his heart. Coincidence? I don't think so.)
Oh, but I love this series. I cannot believe that they actually got me to care about Viren, though.
I also gotta say, I love that none of my theories end up being right. I have so many every season, and then the story just keeps taking a left turn to somewhere completely different.
Anyway, now I'm just gonna sit in a box like a cat and wait for the next season.
I just come up with the weirdest and most out-of-nowhere ideas sometimes.
Like, I’m just sitting here, minding my own business, then all of the sudden my brain goes: ‘Do you think [Insert batman character here] would like Beastars?’ And now I can’t stop thinking about how Mr Freeze made a mlp reference in Injustice 2-
Weirdly enough, I feel like Killer Croc might like it. And not just because he’s basically a giant crocodile-
I mean like, the murder solution arc I feel would probably pique his interest, especially the cold open to the series. The whole ‘Carnivore prejudice/The urge to eat your neighbors’ thing especially might be something he can relate to in the series.
Idk, I just have these weird thoughts sometimes so I thought I’d put it out there since I wanted to post something today but didn’t have anything in mind.
You know... I just realized something while rewatching Earth's mightiest heroes.
The jotuns in that show clearly try to eat people, right?
Do you think- ...do you think Loki ever gets cannibalistic urges because of that?
I mean, Loki is a jotun, right? Or half-jotun in some universes (The universes where he's Thor's half-brother, for instance). So since Jotuns seem to have that same instinct to prey on humans and Asgardians like in the original mythology, it only stands to reason Loki would, too, right?
Obviously, this wouldn't apply to MCU Loki, because it pretty much does everything it can to characterize them as basically just 'taller icy Asgardians with blue skin'. (Or maybe it does apply, who knows, we didn't get that much world building with the nine realms in the MCU universe before phase four ruined everything.)
But for universes like Earth's mightiest, where it's blatant that they eat people?
I mean, I obviously haven't read all of the comics, so maybe something in a comic I haven't read yet disproves that, but from what I'm currently aware of? It's not impossible.
You always got strange looks whenever you fed the neighborhood ravens. “I give them food, they give me company,” you’d say. One day, a raven excitedly comes up to you and whispers, “A neighbor plots against you, my lord.”

CEO of Tumblr, Matt Mullenweg, has started openly harassing tumblr users on other platforms. This dude is actually incredibly scary and malicious and should not be involved with this website going forward. Theres just no excuse for this behavior.
I wanted to do a more cartoony Batman The Animated Series version of Magdalena! Her last name being Seymore is a direct (if misspelled) reference to Little Shop Of Horrors!
In Batman The Animated Series Magdalena would be a hairdresser trying to make an ultimate conditioner and accidentally bringing her hair to life after a vile is infected with spores from a meteorite! Idk her Suicide Squad backstory is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT but I wanted it to be sillier for this!
Imagine: Poly relationship: Pietro x Male reader insert x Loki.
Male reader is just as prank-prone as the other two, and these three just have constant prank wars with each other.
I can see Loki using his magic to make Pietro trip up while running or something, just as a little goof, not really meant to be anything. But it basically ends up sparking a full-on battle between the two. (Friendly competition, of course.) and at one point, male reader just gets caught in the cross-fire and he decides to get revenge on both of them at once. This double-prank resulting in him now being a player in the never-ending prank battle.
Meanwhile, Thor and Wanda are just watching all of this in the background wondering how these three are in a relationship.
This is just their dynamic now. Thor, Wanda, and the others just have to deal with it. (Though partially, I imagine they’re relieved, as all of their prank-tendencies are focused on each other and not every one else.) This does change every so often though. Especially on fool’s day, when the three of them team up and prank the others together instead. Often resulting in the three needing to make a quick getaway from a rampaging Hulk, a pissed off winter soldier, etc.
These three are just nuisances to everyone around them but they have so much fun doing it. Partners in crime. Three amigos. ...Three Amantes?
