Ooh how about Marvel movies for the ask game -starklinqs
Just after this ask I got an ask for GOTG too! So I’m gonna cheat a little and do “MCU movies apart from GOTG” for this one, and GOTG for the next :)
Top 5 favourite characters: Sam/Falcon, Nat/Black Widow, Jane Foster… fuck narrowing it down to five is hard… Peter Parker/Spider-Man… I’ve kind of become fond of Loki again recently?
Other characters you like: OMG okay I’m just gonna name the first ones that come to mind because there’s SO MANY. Thor, Nakia, Ned Leeds, Bucky, T’Challa, Hawkeye
Least favourite character:
All the Hydra agents/nazis, obviously, but I guess that’s a given, also THANOS, damn him
Otps: Hmmm… I’m gonna be really boring and just stick to the canon ones (Tony/Pepper, etc) and I have some slightly weird crackships too, like Liz/Shuri. And I kinda ship Stucky by default, but I like Bucky/Sam as well
Notps: I actually can’t think of any, even Natasha/Bruce didn’t bug me all that much (besides that one scene.)
Favourite friendship: I like Natasha and Clint’s friendship, although who knows if we’ll see it highlighted again
Favourite family: The royal family of Wakanda are pretty damn awesome, I think we can agree… also, I know how unpopular this is, but I like Hawkeye having a family, because in one of the first ‘grownup’ Marvel comics I read Hawkeye has a family in that and they all get slaughtered for shock value, right down to the baby. So when I see Hawkeye’s very much alive family in the movies I flip the bird to that comic in my head.
Favourite episode: n/a!
Favourite season/book/movie:
I know it’s the worst reviewed MCU movie but I actually really love Thor 2, it was funny
Favourite quote: I absolutely frigging love T’Challa’s speech at the end of Black Panther.
Moment that made you fangirl/boy the hardest: ALL OF Infinity War is gonna be this
When it really disappointed you: The whitewashing for Doctor Strange was pretty disappointing
Saddest moment: Loki’s death was sad right up until it turned out he was faking. That little shit
Most well done character death: ERIKS
Favourite guest star: …does Michael B Jordan count as a guest star, because his performance was goddamn Oscar-worthy. Probably not.
Favourite cast member: Chris Evans seems like a really good person
Character you wish was still alive:
It would have been interesting to keep Hela around
One thing you hope really happens: None of my faves die in Infinity War
Most shocking twist:
I still think the Iron Man 3 twist was really well done! Not least because it gave a chance for Ben Kingsley to do what he does best and eat scenery
When did you start watching/reading: I’ve seen almost every MCU movie since Iron Man back in 2008! I think the only ones I haven’t seen are Doctor Strange and Ant Man
Trope you wish they would stop using: NO MORE CASUALLY REMOVING WOMEN, PLEASE (see: Jane Foster, Betty Ross, Helen Cho, hell where’s Maria gone, etc)
One thing this show/book/film does better than others: Telling really good stories about extraordinary people
Funniest moments: Although I haven’t actually seen Ant Man, I thought all his dialogue in Civil War was hilarious
Couple you would like to see: Please, please show us a loving same-sex relationship
Actor/Actress you want to join the cast: I really, really want to see A GOOD TAKE on Harry Osborn done by the MCU, but I don’t know who would play him.
Most boring plotline:
Although I don’t have any particular qualms with the Natasha/Bruce stuff, I guess I do find it a bit boring?
Best flashback/flashfoward if any: The flashback with young Tony in Civil War was great, especially the way they managed to recreate a bb RDJ
Most layered character: Tony’s fascinating even if I don’t always agree with him
Scariest moment: Those EXPLODING PEOPLE in Iron Man 3
Grossest moment: The Red Skull removing his face, ew
Best looking male: Far, far too many to count
Best looking female: Ditto
Who you’re crushing on (if any): EVERYONE IS SO GOOD LOOKING
Most beautiful scene (scenery/shot wise): The first shot of Wakanda is absolutely stunning
Unanswered question/continuity issue/plot error that bugs you: The Uncle Ben thing, I hate that he’s not mentioned when he’s so important to the Spider-Man story, and to Peter as a character
At what point did you fall in love with this show/book: It’s one of those things that’s always been there, like a warm and very colourful duvet
