This Doesn’t Spoil But Announces The Mood For Endgame

I’m seeing some people defend the Russo’s by saying shit like “it’s not as if they started shooting the funeral scene as soon as they stepped on set they had a day to rehearse”

THATS NOT HOW ACTING FUCKING WORKS. NOT AT A HIGH SCHOOL PRODUCTION LEVEL AND SURE AS FUCK NOT AT A HOLLYWOOD LEVEL

1. Part of the reason rehearsal takes a while is to learn lines, but

2. Then it’s learning the delivery of the lines

3. Then it’s getting into the headspace of the scene and knowing which emotions to convey

4. And if they’re an especially talented actor, they’ll be acting with body language and facial expressions too, which also take time to get down

5. And some actors are method actors, meaning they get in character and stay in character off set and live their life as the character to really get into what makes that character tick. MANY of the marvel actors are method to a degree. Even rdj has admitted to going home still in the mindset of tony.

You absolutely cannot spring a surprise scene on an actor, give them only hours or a day to rehearse, and expect their best. You can’t even expect exceptional. It’ll be good and decent at most and that’s fucking tragic when you’re part of the most anticipated film of a goddamn decade.

It’s stressful as fuck for actors to work under conditions like that. Bad enough if a director or writer decides to change a couple lines at last minute. Being blindsided by an entire scene? Jfc I can’t even imagine.

This goes for all the other fucking bullshit the Russo’s pulled like not telling people who they might be fighting, what some cgi thing looks like, or who they’re even gonna be on set with until the day of. That is not and has never been how acting works and I gaurntee if this had been any other studio most of them would have refused to act under such conditions. But since it is Disney/marvel and the studio does all but own their soul on paper, they have to.

Rdj is about the only one who gets to do what the fuck he wants since without him there is no mcu, and certainly not endgame. But even he isn’t immune to this. The Russo’s ganged up and pressured him into things he originally didn’t want to do and was uncomfortable with. They aren’t the first directors to do that to him, either. At the end of the day, he seems fine with the results. And that may be the absolute truth of it. But we can’t really know for sure ANY of their real thoughts and emotions about it all because either it’s literally in their contract that they can’t speak ill of anything under the studios umbrella or it’ll be twisted around on them and become a much bigger thing than they’d want it to be.

Which is why when bad shit happens on set actors are typically quiet about it for years to come, until they’re safe from major reprecussions. No one is immune to this. Not the richest actors, not the most beloved ones. Which is why the union exists but even then there is only so much it can do.

SO. When people say the Russo’s are shitty for what they did, that is not an exaggeration. When people say it’s unfair to the actors, that is not an exaggeration. When people say they cared more about the product than the story they were trying to tell, it is not an exaggeration.

And I sincerely hope a decade from now when endgame is old news and these actors are long out of Disney/Marvel’s clutches that we hear from them just how unfair it really was.

TikTok has banned LGBT content

I think some people might not know, so I’m spreading this, but TikTok has banned LGBT content.

For that reason, I’m not going to be reblogging TikTok videos anymore, and I encourage you to do the same.

I know it’s hard. TikTok felt like getting Vine back, but they’re scummy homophobic poo-poos and I feel like we should take a stand against that.

I’m cancelled

A concept

answered a scam call today and had the most bizarre conversation

I need more omg so good

[ NAME: STEPHEN ] Detroit: Become Human AU

Tony sighs and covers his eyes for a moment. He wants to go to bed and continue his work tomorrow, but it seems like something holding him back and this is not any kind of deadline. To be honest, the question of time doesn’t bother Tony Stark at all, because he has no limitations in this. Especially, when the world’s leading android manufacturer and retailer appeals for advice and assistance in the development of their new models. Tony looks up into the corner of his studio, where one of their machines sits. The male android whom the CyberLife sent to Stark for the analysis of all his biocomponents and for the check of his hands motility. As the representative of the company explained to Jarvis, this is a new model unique in its kind, but not as perfect as they want it to be. At first, Stark didn’t want to take this work, but literally the day before yesterday he had changed his mind. Engage in the development and an assembly of androids is fascinating, through. This android came to Stark’s tower last morning and didn’t cause Tony any admiring feelings. He looks like any ordinary robot that the CyberLife creats. At first he was not very talkative and Tony was sure that he would also have to reactivate his voice module, until he heard a polite reproach to his phrase. Tony was looking at the files that the android sent over the network to Jarvis with his own data, technical charts and a list of exploitative brief. Tony rubbed his cheek with his hand, indignant that the CyberLife had somehow overlooked to give their android the model name and number in the documents. “Since I will be the first model in this line, the developers have deemed it necessary to leave only the serial number. If, to you, Mr. Stark, it’s not so convenient to pronounce all the eleven-digit code, then, I believe, you can choose a shorter name for me.” Confused for a moment from such an answer, and the answer in principle, Tony then only turned away, slightly smiling. He decides to think about the name for this android later.

China is putting Uyghur Muslims into Concentration Camps

This is one of the greatest attrocities and oppression taking place in the world today yet still it is one of the least talked about issues. It’s estimated possibly over 2 million Uyghur Muslims have been put into these concentration camps which China calls “re-edcuation camps” and the goals is to wipe out and clean them from their cultural and religious identity. They have built dozens of these camps with fortified walls and barbed wire fences which they hide from the world media.

China sees Islam as an ‘ideological disease’. Many of the people put in these camps don’t make it out alive due to to the harsh living conditions inside. Many leave behind children who are then sent to government run orphanages and are brainwashed from a young age removing their cultural and religious identity.

Uyghur Muslims can be arrested and put in these camps for the smallest of reasons and every step they take is monitored by the authorities. Facial recognition cameras and high tech equipment has been deployed in East Turkestan turning it into a complete surveillance state. This isn’t fantasy or ‘fake news’. This is happening now in East Turkestan. Don’t let history repeat itself. Share and let the world know the truth.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL FOR ANYONE WHO USES “BLUEBUFFALO” FOR THEIR DOGS!!
