Hilarious to me that Disney keeps looking for for a good villain and a compelling story line for the multiverse to tie it all together and it’s right there.
Make the TVA the big bad, the threat to all of existence and all realities. they regularly commit genocide on a gigantic scale and eliminate free well. It’s perfect.
but no. Instead we get the idea that the TVA is flawed but somehow good shoved down our throats. And cutesy ads about literal gas chambers. And we get told that Mobius is somehow a good guy despite the fact that he knowingly committed genocide on a daily basis without any regret or remorse. We get told he’s Loki’s friend despite the fact that Mobius murders everyone in his reality on screen and also torture him.
Disney has everything right in front of them. And they’re throwing it all away so they can lick the boots of fascism.
The TVA are brilliant villains but Disney is too obsessed with promoting victim blaming and fascism to notice.

What is wrong with you Marvel Studios!?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, the TVA is just full stop Nazis at this point. Not even being subtle about it? They are Nazi. We have passed the point where the TVA have done more actions that the nazi have done then the MCU's version of Hydra. Don't come at me saying the TVA is meant to bad and you're not meant to like them because if that's the case what is all this?

This isn't just making a figurine for kids to play with or collectors to put on their shelves. This is selling people the means to play dress up as the incredible Nazi-coded characters. Does No one see the problem with this?
I know Hasbro sells Cobra and Decepticon merchandise but along with it they still sell GI joe and Autobot Merch. What's being sold with all this TVA merchandise? Maybe a few scant pieces of Sylvie stuff but also Loki dress up in the TVA aesthetic. All they have to sell to the audience is the fascists.
Did we all forget about this?
The promotion for Secret Empire was controversial, deservedly so but now several years later Marvel does the exact same thing and the reaction people have is, Loki getting what deserves and Mobius is so charming.
It doesn't seem like the TVA are going away. If rumors are to believed they're going to be in Deadpool 3 and if it doesn't contain Wade slicing these monsters to sherds that franchise can go crash and burn as well.Marvel please just stop

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.
like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been

Agents of shield is absolutely hilarious for making the episodes of season 7 in the theme of their decade. you just know the writers had so much fun giving coulson an internal monologue for a 50s black and white episode and then jumping to the 70s in nyc with a super spy intro and music I’m obsessed it’s so fun

"This," Speed pinched the bridge of his nose, "Is my younger brother Billy."
Wally stared at the boy in front of him, virtually identical to Speed in every way, except his hair was dark brown. He looked a bit taller, too, but that was mostly because of how he didn't slouch like his brother.
Billy rolled his eyes at Speed, "We're twins." He gestured with his arm, and that movement made Wally realize the hoodie he was wearing wasn't a normal galaxy patterned fabric. It was shifting around, as if reflecting actual stars from the night sky.
As if noticing his stares, Billy grinned, "Like it? It's connected to a galaxy back home. Where I'm taking this guy back to."
"Billy can manipulate reality." Speed explained to Wally off-handedly, "And why are you even here? No calls for months, and suddenly you're worried about me again?"
They were going to argue more, Wally was sure of it, but before they could, he blurted out: "I know that maybe Captain Marvel has probably given me the wrong impression, but all Billys are just like this, huh?"
Billy and Speed looked at each other, nonplussed, "What?"

Just watched the Marvels and I am now in favor of Matt and Jane relaxing at the park the baby flerkens appear at and they go home with one as 'companionship' for Mini Matt the Cat.
Sample dialogue:
"Poor thing," you murmured, stroking the kitten's back. "Matt, I think this kitten's sick." Matt drew in a short, startled breath. "Dear," he breathed. "That... is not a cat." "If it's not cat, then what—" The kitten's hair stood on end.
It hacked once.
Twice.
Skersplorch.
"Did it... just throw up a person?" Matt asked slowly, as the woman groaned, rising to her feet and slowly staggering towards the ship nearby, muttering about early retirement.
"It did, yes. And it's got, uh, tentacles that popped out." You scratched your chin, as the Not-Kitten rubbed against your fingers, clearly feeling better as the rest of the Not-Kittens began to hack out their own victims. "Ok, so this complicates things, but we were looking for a second cat, and he's kinda like one—" "No."
"But he's so cute," you mumbled. "And he could be good security. Couldn't you little fella? He can't be all that bad if they were all in a spaceship with Fury."
"We are not adopting an alien kitten."
TWO HOURS LATER.
"I can't believe we adopted the alien kitten," Matt sighed, as the Not-Kitten rubbed his face fondly against Matt's cheek. It had taken the Not-Kitten precisely thirty seconds in the apartment before he'd climbed up Matt's clothes to reach his shoulder, where he'd sat purring for the past twenty minutes.
"I can. Our life is weird." You turned a page of the intergalactic care sheet you'd been given, ignoring Mini Matt when he batted at the pages in your hand. "Now here, I've got a braille version for you, too. 'So You've Adopted A Flerken'. According to this, he needs to stretch his tentacles once a day..."

He’s SO right. It’s a crime that he never got to write for Loki again after Thor 2011. He did such a great job and cares about the characters so much. He would have been an AMAZING pick for head writer of the Loki Series. And would’ve actually given us a show that was well written and, you know, about LOKI.

Something I find terribly ironic is that, the MCU hates Loki - they really do. They have been very public and open about how they feel about him. They have even made a show about it. They hate him, but they're counting on him to save them, just like the Aesir does in the Norse myths. They know Sylvie and Mobius isn't enough. They know to put all the scenes where Loki actually speaks for himself and looks powerful in the new trailer because they need to give people something that will make them want to watch. I bet you more than half of the scenes of Loki being powerful on his own have been altered, with Sylvie photoshopped out, or mysteriously won't make it into the actual show.
They hate him, but they're counting on him to save them. The sad thing is, he probably will. The show will somehow do good, get rave reviews and ratings that it does not deserve. My prediction for how it's going to end is this : Loki won't be killed, but they'll have a "suitable" ending for him. They'll box him up, nice and neat, and keep him on ice until they need him to save them again.
Yep, all that.
Loki is the golden goose and they're really resentful none of their Turkeys are giving them the shining eggs Loki does.
Two things
So a major aspect of Sylvie I don't like is that she is a essential an OC. I honestly don't know what they were thinking. Say what you want about "women replacing men" but Jen, Kate and Shuri are all long established characters who have supporting cast, have roles in storylines and have been parts of bigger groups. Like, what did they really expect Sylvie to go on to. Not helped by Waititi taking a torch to the Thor mythos. Even Coulson a mcu creation was a way to have S.H.I.E.D. stuff without needing Fury. Did the show runners really think other writers would be chomping at the bit to use Sylvie when stuff like X-Men and Fantastic Four is on its way. Did they expect her to join the Avengers? Why would writers want alternative universe Loki who isn't called Loki when they already have established magic based characters like Wanda and Doctor Strange.... Hey wait a second
The overall treatment of Loki by the TVA is honestly something that became unbearable. Why do they want Loki new look to be him wearing the uniform of fascists that abused him. It was so easy to put Loki against the TVA and make him the hero. Like in the nineties Venom got super popular so they created Carnage to be the even worse villain so Venom by comparison could be good and Transition into anti hero. So that what you think would happen to Loki fight against people who have done even worse than he has. But no he is constantly punch down and belittle and just follows the will of others.
They had it all. One of the most popular characters and all they had to do was show I'm do sneaky manipulative stuff for sake of good instead of evil. But instead they just have him kick down and change everything that people liked so they could introduce new characters and say they were great.
