#which is a marvel company

[mechieonu]

i know that disney is too big to boycott effectively but that shouldn't translate to "and so we should keep buying their products like normal" but rather "at the very least we should try"

#i know they have their fingers in a lot of pies but #i've just been thinking #bc i don't watch star wars or sports or marvel and i don't rlly watch tv/cable anymore #and i haven't bought a disney product or gone to the theme parks #and as far as i know disney doesn't facilitate a necessity that can't be circumvented #and at the VERY‚ very least‚ we're supposed to pressure them #the way i personally interpret that is 'avoid directly supporting them as much as you can' #bc i'm aware that you could accidently support them by proxy by buying something they've invested in #which is why we're supposed to PRESSURE rather than BOYCOTT #but i just also want to see disney downfall in my lifetime but that's neither here nor there #idk man #i was so excited to hear abt the book of bill but I don't think i could stomach #directly supporting the company that pledged $2million to the occupation project #free palestine #and don't forget that you can still sail the seven seas (or just go buy old dvds! I need to build a collection) #lol it's easy to boycott if you're broke !

“What If…Venom Had Bonded to Wolverine?” What If…? Venom (Vol. 1/2024), #2.

Writer: Jeremy Holt; Penciler and Inker: Tadam Gyadu; Colorist: Ceci de la Cruz; Letterer: Ariana Maher

#Marvel #Marvel comics #What If…? Venom #latest release #Moon Knight comics #Moon Knight #Steven Grant #Wolverine #James Howlett #Logan #absolutely enamored with the idea of Steven not only being rich but rich enough to be famous #which I guess makes sense if at one point he even had his own eponymous company #but I guess considering the shady way he acquired his money I always leaned towards he would try to stay on the down low #also love the idea they’re going with here of Moon Knight being the one to get the band together #(and also you know just hiiiii Steven great to see you)

Let's talk about which Pre Disney Marvel TV shows are officially MCU cannon.

Agent Carter: This ones the easiest it was literally confirmed as Cannon

Daredevil: This is confirmed Cannon by Spider-man No Way Home, Hawkeye, and She-Hulk

Defenders, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Punisher: all cross over with Daredevil in some way shape or form

Agents of Shield: has tie in's with Avengers, Winter Soldier and Infinity War, maybe they all got lucky and none of them got snapped away during Infinity War, or maybe they all did, but they are directly influenced by at least 3 MCU movies, and they connect to Daredevil because it is confirmed that the Absorbing Man from season 2 is confirmed to be the same Carl Creel mentioned in Daredevil.

Cloak And Dagger: Directly acknowledges the events of Luke Cage, and The company Roxxon appears, which also appears in Iron man 1'2'3 and Daredevil.

Marvel's Runaways: Directly connects to Cloak and Dagger via their crossover, and Sister Grimm uses the same type of magic as Kaecilius from Doctor Strange

#I'm not counting hellstrom because the only connection it has to the greater MCU is Roxxon #Which could just be because Roxxon is a company in the comics #I only used it for cloak and dagger because they already had connections to the MCU via Luke Cage/runaways #marvel #marvel comics #marvel mcu #marvel cinematic universe #marvel's runaways #the runaways #nico minoru #cloak and dagger #agents of shield #agent carter #daimon hellstrom #Inhumans has no connection #Defenders #luke cage #the defenders #jessica jones #daredevil #daredevil show #she hulk #iron fist

Trying to create a full Marvel reading list, sorted by characters is hard. Even when you're only going for all the 60s and 70s comics (not even promising I'll read them, just making a list so I can keep track and sort it and stuff), it's quite hard. You know how many masterworks and epic collections and omnibuses you have to google to make this list happen? It's a lot. And it's harder the more I do, shockingly. I don't think my brain will allow me not to keep trying to make this work (as long as my hyperfixation lasts, of course), but I feel it's only natural to at least bring it up and discuss the problems with it while I do it.

#marvel #marvel comics #Haven't even touched DC yet #If I did then I'd be doing lists for 2 companies #Which would be much harder #reading lists #reading order #comics #comic books #marvel 616 #marvel universe #autism #asd #neurodivergent #adhd

still cant believe it took kris anka a year and a half to get an approved miguel design for the film fdskfjksdh they said get that boyfailure perfect or else

#from the way the directors commentary goes it sounds more like it was approval from the marvel company and not them personally??? #which is an interesting insight into the industry and just how much these characters are considered valuable as brands #but. yeah. #anyways i love the film redesign (and its my fave design from the line up we saw) so im glad it made it through #tunes talks spiderverse

ootd features the words "black dress" in its lyrics and people are like oh! this is a reference to another group's song, "black dress"!

i'm unwell.

#shrimp thoughts #also 'you people just Don't Understand' part 2: apparently there will be Part Two. just like with gee idle's allergy and queen/card #which. lol. apparently 'when allergy came out people were shocked because the it was basically 'if you're ugly tough shit just get a #surgery' but once queen/card came out everything was clear!' and like. how was it clear. what was clear. #one song is 'boo hoo i'm so ugly i hate looking at myself in the mirror and no one likes me i should get plastic surgery' #and the other is like 'ya hoo i'm so hot and sexy i'm like these two western celebrities!!!! i'm so cool i'm twerking on the runway' #kp/op kinda sucks balls in that it's like.... musical equivalent of tjlc crossed with marvel. it's basic ass pop made to sell except with a #faux deep garnish. and sometimes the garnish stands on its own! like if you take guerrilla it's clear that there's actually no deeper or #more detailed philosophy behind it. it's not really n.o where the 'rebellion' was actually supposed to be against something concrete #it's like. we want to feel! we don't want... not to feel! but the sound and visuals are strong enough that you don't mind it #like fuck yeah the lads are staging a revolution now! and now they're outlaws in a western! sort of! and now it's alice in wonderland! #but v often the companies actively make use of the fact that kp/op stans will obsessively look for Depth and Serious Themes in their #cultural reset slaying sotys. a girl looks at a butterfly? oh the song is about having an identity crisis like in that one poem about a guy #dreaming about being a butterfly. it's actually very deep and you can see it was all planned because there was a little butterfly icon #above the tracklist. and the fans get so attached to their headcanons theories and interpretations that they don't stop for a second #to check if there was anything in the 'text' in the first place #remember that one magritte post? this is also how kp/op stans interpret things. she wears a blue dress here and blue is the color of summer #and summer is when you have holidays and don't have to go to school! so by this blue dress she's trying to say that you should love #yourself and strive to be the best version of yourself by embracing your hobbies and extracurricular interests. this is so genius 😭

I want to grab the MCU by the throat and watch it attempt to escape while it slowly suffocates between my fingers

#i hate that they gave spidey stark tech i hate that they gave him allies immediately i hate that they made him. fuckin. #begging at the avengers' shoes even though he's supposed to be a loner i HATE THE SUIT STARK GIVES HIM I HATE THAT HE KEEPS IT #the mcu is INCAPABLE of doing anything right with characters. anything #this is not spider-man this is a lapdog proudly knocking over furniture in a depserate attempt for acknoledgement #SPIDEY IS SUPPOSED TO BE NEW YORK'S FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SUPERHERO. you got the friendly part down. kind of. now let's see the neighborhood #they sent him in the middle of intergalactic conflict. this is not teenage spidey's shit. #he doesnt usually follow iron man around like a leech #spidey #i have known spidey for the spicy amount of two whole months since the seven decades or so he's existed #but god i feel an irrepressible rage towards the MCU (which i already hated before i even started liking marvel) #(guess what ! the mcu made me think i hated marvel for a good while ! wHAT AN AMAZING FUCKING COMPANY) #its the black and white thinking talking maybe. maybe im prejudiced. who knows. no shame to mcu likers i just. sldhzkhdmabslsbKAVDKVDLSBAMWB #(bangs head on table several times) #this post was brought to you by the world's angriest toddler with a hyperfixation and a solid 'im right youre wrong' mentality

honestly i also think that groups arent going to award's shows anymore is also because its not only rigged but you also already know whos gonna win. like if they have 10 awards you already know b'ts is gonna get at least 3 whether they deserve it or not because otherwise fans will eat them alive, thats 7 awards left then you have male and female rookie which, well it excludes anyone who isnt a rookie, 1 award for best male (excludes women) 1 award for best female (excludes men), an award for solo artists, and then like performance of the year or something. so you basically have 50 groups sitting there ineligible for half the awards and not being able to get the other half because the same 5 groups always get them so like..... why even go at that point

yea i agree, awards shows across genre have been losing their sway for a couple of years. i think kpop ones are a particularly acute microcosm bc there are not very many types of awards, and there are really stark differences between the 'top tier' of groups and the rest of the ones that make up the majority of the industry, despite the industry being relatively small. even though there's numerically less groups debuting in the last twoish years (i did a quick survey of the wikipedia list of debuts by year to check numbers and it was about 30ish per year in the 2010s but so far it's been about 20ish for the 2020s. however this does include subunits and project groups so it's not a totally accurate figure), all those numbers compound on each other since there aren't the same amount leaving the industry as entering. so overall, these awards shows continue to be stacked towards the groups with the biggest companies and fanbases, even though there's better art that deserves that recognition being made by increasingly more and more groups that go completely unnoticed and have no chances of being noticed.

#the thing is that you cant really like.......diversify kpop awards in the same way you can for film/tv/music #you cant divide idol music by genre bc it IS the genre. unless you started giving out awards for 'best (x) concept' #which......doesn't really work #like this is the same problem as hollywood has with the oscars etc but there's still some kind of pretense that they care about 'art' #for those at least. like superhero movies dont usually get noms for best picture #whereas with kpop its like. if the lastest marvel movie won every award bc the most people watched it and it made the most money #its all very transparently capitalistic #and not at all a recognition of artistry #its also at a place where these awards are losing value to fans bc a handful of groups who dont deserve them are constantly winning them #but to groups from small companies who get nommed its still a HUGE deal. its become this weird dichotomy #i'm sure its very frustrating for idols #text #answers #kpop questions #awards shows 2022

i have so many hopes for the second spiderman game, many that i know will not happen bc of damn company rights or whatever. baxter building appearance (maybe even you can enter/interact with). ferry loading screen to statue of liberty and meet w torch 😋. mj modeling gigs and mj dressing REALLY NICE like i love ps4 mj but my girl would not wear that. dd appearance? whether as matt or in suit idc. FLASH THOMPSON. more small neighborhood missions or better yet peter missions like for HIS personal life bc clearly that goes to shit while he spider-mans. SANDMAN APPEARANCE. PETER’S NEW JOB AS A TEACHER!!! kaine/ben. or more spider people in general. (cindy? 🤭) do you guys see my vision

#i know the baxter building thing wokt happen probably bc apparently it didnt even make an appearance in the first game bc of marvel/fox #rights or whatever. hate these damn companies #but at least we have miles and venom and harry coming 🤭 #AND apparently theyre expanding the map into queens which is cool #AND KEEP THE SOCIAL MEDIA ASPECT OF IT. SO FUN #and i love the backpacks #z.txt

Iron Man (1968) #62

#intrigued by the discordance here between Tony’s public reputation as a playboy #which’s portrayal varies as to how accurate that actually is #and his reputation as a dedicated businessman at Stark Industries #which is consistently true #his work at Stark Industries is what people would actually know him from #they don’t know him as a famous playboy #so it’s interesting to see how people make sense of that he’s seen as both frivolous and serious #it’s not even the employee that doesn’t know Tony that well that brings up the playboy thing #it’s Pepper #who because of her position in his life as his secretary knows him pretty intimately #‘despite being a playboy his company is almost his life’ #despite that you would think he has other priorities (women) #he’s actually significantly more invested in his company than other comparable people are #but Pepper as Tony’s secretary fully believes in the legitimacy that Tony is a playboy #marvel #tony stark #pepper potts #my posts #comic panels

he's going to be fighting a bunch of these things on his own, huh?

#wednesday spoilers #I don't think anyone really likes the im2-ish plot regarding h*ward but then duggan did warn us that he wanted to expand on whatever #happened in hickman's shield run so that's a thing that's happening now I guess.... I just hope he wraps it up quickly #emma was pretty annoying in this issue imo like idk if she's genuinely underestimating feilong or just not letting some things on due to #her being on the council etc. but it's probably going to backfire badly. I liked that tony & sunfire interacted though it's been a while I #think. I don't really know what to say about the h*ward stuff except that I liked that tony didn't become emotional or lose his head when #he was mentioned & he also didn't say anything nice about him so that's fine I guess... #I like that while he won pretty easily in the last issue the sentinel is clearly extremely powerful & tony was outgunned & retreated and I #like that there was no mention of his ego or whatever even though having to run would mess with anyone's ego a bit. I'm sure he would've #fought it anyway if it endangered anyone else but since it didn't he didn't fight a losing battle for whatever reason which shouldn't be #surprising but considering the quality of a lot of his previous runs it's nice #this issue wasn't as strong as the last one imo & I wish the stark employees resigned in protest the way they always did in the past #although it hasn't been his company for a while & usually when they resigned it was about tony and that one dude was clearly unhappy about #what was happening so maybe we'll see something in later issues? idk #I could've used a lot less h*ward but then I was expecting him to come up plus I'm glad it's happening now & not during cantwell's run #I'm pretty excited for the next issue since it's a flashback to the wca/silver centurion era... overall I think the characterisation is #still pretty good so I'll just hold on to that #iron man #marvel 616 #tony stark

I saw Strange World today!  Very Marnie-core, and just pure, fun action.  A solid 9/10.

But I also had the misfortune of hearing Crisped-Rat Mario right before.

#marnie.txt #my dad and brother felt a bit meh about at and i'm like sure #but my dad felt like the gay thing was 'forced' and in the inside I was like 'bruh' #honestly could've been better but this was the most organic canon-gay character in a disney film in ages and probably the best #gay rep we'll be getting from the same company that cancelled Owl House #this is also the first disney film i've watched since Encanto and the second I've watched since idk ... #Coco? Incredibles 2? #oh wait Ralph Breaks the Interwebs #which has already aged as well as a wojak meme (i mean that in a bad way) #but I really enjoyed the environmental message but also like the hobbit-dieselpunk aesthetic and also the creature design #splat? alone made the movie good #i really liked how it didn't try to really push the stakes as much as other films (see marvel) and I liked the characters #but onto the topic of the crisped rat: he cannot pull of mario. period. #no charisma. no character but crisped rat. doesn't stand out. #I know of the 'mushroom kingdom here we go' line but even i expected it to sound excited for the rat #even that line was low energy from him. especially compared to freaking EMMET. who is supposed to be boring as heck #rest of the movie looks meh and it feels like it will be overstuffed (we still know nothing abt foreman spike). I'll v likely sit it out

her stomach twists in comical delight as she weaves through the dark corners of the building with the most valuable item in this dead museum of gems, curated by her dearest most hated father. she supposes that this has become a game to her, a winner - takes - all sort of mindset spliced into these violently juvenile acts of revenge. night turns to a flash of daylight with the flash of lightning illuminating the rain, & she breathes out an annoyed breath upon realizing some wannabe hero has stumbled upon her mischief.
