"Ma'am, why is the former Captain America wearing those colours. Is he Captain Yemen now?"
Reporter: Miss De Fontaine, why is there a Captain America and a Captain Russia in the new Avengers?
Valentina: We wanted a really diverse team. Next.
The fact that this wasn't a one-off and Elsa still has little cameos in the X-Men videos (so she really is on the team in the HISHE "canon") is one of the most underrated bits in the whole series.
HISHE's original Let It Go cover from their Frozen video was so much better. Bloody Disney...
If Yelena is a top and Ava is a bottom, would that make Yelena a Ghost Rider?
With the Raft becoming overcrowded, Yelena decides to recruit some of its superpowered inmates and her old friends into a second iteration of the Thunderbolts. But when they're tasked with leading a military siege against New Asgard, loyalties are tested and tensions rise, causing divisions that will change the face of the Marvel Cinematic Universe forever.
The show can pretend she's nice all it wants, but you just know kid/teen Sassy was one of those toxic mean girls who always made her "friends" feel shitty about themselves, then acted like she was the one lowering herself letting them hang out with her.
If the writers keep playing their cards right, this could be the best Sonamy dynamic of all time, and I'm not even exaggerating.
Powder: My sister could beat up your sister any day!
Caitlyn: I don't even have a sister.
Powder: You don't? Lol, loser…
With all the recent Bumblebees in Transformers media that speak through the radio or through beeps, I'm kinda surprised there hasn't been a voiceless Bumblebee who communicates through sign language.
Like, how wholesome would it be if Bee lost his voicebox and then the Autobots gained a deaf or hard-of-hearing human ally who teaches him sign language?
Don't want to make my old readers any promises I can't keep, but since it's the New Year, I figured it's as good a time as any to share a little tease for something that I may or may not have in the works...
Happy New Year - 2025!!!!!
AU Powder: I know you're tryin' to be all serious and sciency and stuff right now, Professor, but part of me really wants to comb you with a brush and call you a pretty kitty.
(awkward pause)
Heimerdinger: I mean, let's not rule anything out.

Oh. My. GOD. Are you kidding me?!
This fic could absolutely be the actual script for the 3rd movie of Illumination had the BALLS To be this good!
I really really want to redraw some scenes in the fic. My god it’s just. So good, please read it made me cry. It’s called One way left to go on AO3.
That’s all. Please for the love of GOD READ IT!
Caitlyn: (sobbing uncontrollably) And then, we got into an argument, and I hit her, and… an-an-and then we broke up!
Ambessa: Oh, good… (Caitlyn looks at her) …grief. Good grief, I'm so sorry you had to go through that.
Caitlyn: Look, I was going through a bad time, and I didn't know if you were ever coming back. I had to fall back on someone, Vi.
Vi: (studying Maddie) Hmm… y'know what, I kinda see the appeal, actually. Hey Mads, you ever been in a three-way?
Maddie: Um… not really. I don't even have a car.
Jinx: Well, sis, I have a confession to make. This is your surprise wedding!
Vi: What?! (tears of joy) Aw, Powder, I can't believe you did this for… wait… why is Caitlyn tied up…?
Jinx: It's a surprise for both of you!
Season 1: Vi and Jinx both cling to memories of who the other used to be.
Season 2: Vi and Jinx confront and learn to accept each other (and themselves) for who they are in the here and now.
Jinx: I know you're sweet on her. Hope you had a chance to… y'know…
Vi: Oh, um… be right back!
(grabs Caitlyn and runs off somewhere private)
Spider-Man: If my villains were the PAW Patrol, Shocker would be the one with the submarine. Sure, he could be neat on his own, but everybody else has way cooler gimmicks and they kinda just do what he does anyway, so he's just sorta -
Shocker: Christ, I know you like to do your quips, but this is just cruel, man.
Buster would probably let Suki, Porsha and Darius see the Moon Troupe's shows for free if they asked, but they line up to buy tickets anyway just to support him and the gang.
Vi: Alright, cupcake, here's the plan. You're gonna pretend to work here, then I'm gonna walk out and walk back in and pretend to be a customer, and then we'll -
Caitlyn: Hang on, how does this help my investigation again?
Vi: Oh, we're still doing that? Fuck.
Wait…
Did I predict this…?!
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one…
It's kinda hard to explain, but One feels like the first time that Sentinel Prime was actually meant to be Sentinel Prime from the start.
Usually he's just the name Transformers writers use when the character they've written is too much of an asshole to be any other character.
*Jinx on the podium*
"People of Zaun, Sevika's been tellin' me about all these bullshit rumours and memes goin' around saying that I'm homophobic, so I'm just gonna put all that shit to rest. I 100% support gay rights!"
*crowd cheers*
"Now, Caitlyn rights, on the other hand…"
In hindsight, with me getting obsessively into these franchises when they were both making a comeback at the same time, this was bound to happen sooner or later…
Transformers: One - What's In A Kneel?
!!!!!MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!
With the responsibility of leadership and the dangers of pedestals and hero worship being such major themes, it only makes sense that all three of the film's leaders would show their true characters, and in doing so seal their fates, in moments where they have to kneel/bow.
Sentinel Prime essentially sets the entire second half of the film in motion when both the heroes and we as the viewer see him kneel to the Quintessons. It confirms everything that Alpha Trion was just telling them/us about him, and it's also the very thing that ends up getting broadcast to Iacon in order to finally expose Sentinel and turn the public against their False Prime.
For all his superficial charisma and his talk of looking out for the little guys, Sentinel himself is truly nothing more than a self-centred, spineless coward, who couldn't care less for the needs of the many and gladly bends to the will of bigger bullies/oppressors in order to keep himself in power.
After learning of Sentinel's betrayal and being subsequently captured with the High Guard, D-16 makes a point to stand while in custody and adamantly refuses to kneel. Even when Sentinel begins beating and torturing him, D-16 makes it abundantly clear that he has no intention of bowing to him or anyone else ever again.
In better circumstances this could be a heroic trait, a courageous defiance and the willingness to stand up in the face of injustice. But it just as becomes a negative one, and it's one of the last warning signs to the kind of leader that Megatron is going to be.
He may have started out with good and heroic intentions, but because of this Megatron sees himself as superior, and whether by choice or by force, he expects his fellow Cybetronians to rally behind him just as they did with Sentinel. While he sees himself as a revolutionary, in the end he's just going to become another tyrant.
And then we have Orion Pax. For much of the film, he's a far cry from the noble, legendary leader that we know and love from other iterations, but he starts to grow into it as he devises the rescue mission, and is tasked with rallying his fellow miners to help.
Having gotten a major upgrade since the last time he saw them, Orion now towers over his former peers and they're utterly awed by the sight of him. Rather than trying to take advantage of their admiration or even intimidate them with his new size and strength, Orion almost seems frustrated by the new height difference, and before beginning his speech he kneels down to literally speak to them on their level.
Orion doesn't make a point to do this, no one has to ask or prompt him to, in fact he himself doesn't even give that much thought to it, it's just his first instinct for how to best communicate. He may look larger and stronger now, but he still values the miners as his friends and his equals, and nothing is ever going to change that.
Gaining the Matrix later on may have gotten him the name, but it's this moment when Orion truly begins to embody the true core and heart of Optimus Prime. Powerful and inspiring, yet humble and caring. Or perhaps, as the legendary Peter Cullen himself has always said:
"Strong enough to be gentle."
I know it's way too early to start thinking this far ahead, but I just can't help it...
Sentinel gives the entire city a mandatory day off to put on his ego event, then not even a day later he triples everyone's shifts to make up for the lost time.
God, this movie is good.
Crazy to think Kung Fu Panda 4 has already aged worse in six months than the first three movies have in 8-16 years.
Inside Out 2 showing Fear and Disgust as useless, whiny ingrates who contribute almost nothing and don't appreciate Joy's importance hits very differently when you remember their original actors refused to come back because Amy Poehler was getting paid way more than them.
