Oh Dinobot, if only there were someone who loved you

Bugs Bunny could singlehandedly defeat Thanos by dressing up as a TSA agent and setting up a metal detector in the middle of the battlefield saying that all metal objects must be removed if you want to pass on through now stick around for my 2,000 word essay on just how effectively he would convince The Mad Titan to comply
“For shame, doc! Dontcha know we got other folks waiting?”
(Thanos looks behind him and sees dozens of Bugs Bunnies dressed as angry yelling travelers with huge bags of luggage. Thanos rubs his neck guiltily and begins sliding off the gauntlet)
I felt compelled
okay but can someone say ‘no shit Sherlock’ to Dr. Strange in Infinity War
Someone needs to say it in front of both Dr. Strange and Iron Man and then they look at each other uncomfortably.
Please hire Lucy Liu and make her character say it

Hulk’s like “HE’S BEHIND YOU!”
Thanos looks absurd without a hat, frankly.
That’s not a complaint.

That is…horrible.
Saying he “should die” as some sort of retribution would be the most narratively tone-deaf thing I could think of.
If you watch the movie, you can tell that Rocket is emotionally devastated by leaving his friends behind. He knows he has to get the rest of the crew off-planet, but he leaves Yondu all he has left: a rocket pack and an oxygen field. He only has one of each. The planet is literally falling apart and he needs to save Groot and get the ship moving to save everyone else. Yondu knows this, and he and Rocket are sympatico on this point. It breaks Rocket’s heart to essentially hand his newfound friend a death sentence, but therein lies the tragedy.
The batteries thing is just a catalyst for his emotional growth. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone did some noble self-sacrificing in Infinity War but it ain’t coming from the incredibly marketable Rocket Racoon. Nor should it. He needs to grow more, as do the rest of the Guardians.

matt why do you always get these questions from some sort of Worstest Take machine
if Bucky doesn’t get to meet Rocket in Infinity War then the whole film is pointless and may as well not be made
i’m not sure if this is supposed to be sad because they were both brutally experimented on and can share trauma stories and trust issues, or funny because you know full well that rocket is going to try and take bucky’s arm
I just wanted Bucky, who was baffled by Peter Parker in a Lycra onesie, to meet a talking raccoon, why you gotta do me like that
‘I came into this and called Joe and Anthony and said, “Look, don’t write me the old Thor, we’ve got a new Thor now,”’ Chris said.
He was referencing the highly acclaimed shift towards a comedic, self-referential tone he and Taika made with Ragnarok.
But instead of observing his request to keep the character’s newfound mojo alive, the Russo brothers reportedly told him they’d ‘reinvented’ the character once again.
Chris recalled his response: ‘I was like “no, no, no” and I was really protective of what I’d created with Taika.’
They explained that the new direction was in line with the higher-stakes of the Avengers film, and to ensure the character worked well in an ensemble cast.
Fuck the Russo brothers
this is from the fucking daily mail
I bit the bullet and clicked the Daily Mail link (with adblocker on). They’ve essentially reposted an article from the Telegraph, except subtly changed things here and then.
The key takeaway from the original article:
The Russo brothers told him they had reinvented the character of Thor all over again, something that took Hemsworth a while to embrace.
“I was like ‘no, no, no’ and I was really protective of what I’d created with Taika,” Hemsworth said.
“They then said, ‘No this is a whole different thing; Thor’s never faced something like this, never been a part of this large and ensemble.’
“I think for our characters it was difficult but for me a hugely exciting adventure.”
So Hemsworth had a couple of doubts which were soon more or less put to rest. Compare that with what the Mail has to say about it:
‘I came into this and called Joe and Anthony and said, “Look, don’t write me the old Thor, we’ve got a new Thor now,”’ Chris said.
He was referencing the highly acclaimed shift towards a comedic, self-referential tone he and Taika made with Ragnarok.

Thor’s… knife? According to a report published Saturday, Infinity War writers (Joe and Anthony Russo) ignored Chris’ requests for them to observe the dramatic changes made to the character in Ragnarok
[…]
This means (infinity) war! Chris recalled his response: 'I was like “no, no, no” and I was really protective of what I’d created with Taika’
Check out that emotive language! This wasn’t a chat between collaborators, it was an argument, they ignored him, it meant WAR! The Mail is not subtle about who it wants you to sympathize with here. Check out the headlines even, the original article from the Telegraph:
Chris Hemsworth’s big worry with new ‘Avengers’ movie
Verus the Mail:
'I felt stuck’: Chris Hemsworth argued with Avengers Infinity War writers after they 'reinvented’ Thor against his will for the upcoming sequel
Does the quote “I felt stuck” appear anywhere in the article, apart from in the dramatic clickbaity headline and one of the photo captions? It does not.
Because, if you click if the original Telegraph interview, you will see that he is not talking about “feeling stuck” in regards to the Infinity War script, but rather in regards to the first two Avengers movies:
Hemsworth felt he hadn’t given his best performances in the past two Avengers movies, but his experience on Ragnarok gave him the self-assurance to make his voice heard.
“I felt stuck about what I was giving there and felt like I probably wasn’t bringing my portion to it as much as I could have,” Hemsworth said.
So the Mail are outright misrepresenting what he said in order to get you to click. And it worked!
…
Okay. This is a tiny thing. Fundamentally, it does not really matter that Thor, a fairly standard white male superhero, might be written ever so slightly differently (but still as a superhero!) in a film that has 20+ characters vying for attention. But why am I bothering to write all this then?
Because this is how the Daily Mail operates. This is, in the bluntest possible terms, how they’ve managed to keep their hate-spewing empire running for so long. They adjust the facts just enough to get you angry, angry enough to click and read and pass the article along. How dare those writers disrespect my favourite actor, fuck the Russo brothers, and so on! They thrive on your outrage and weaponise it. Click, click, click. More ads, more money.
The Daily Mail is not a legitimate news source, and it’s to the extreme detriment of everyone that people seem to think they are. If you haven’t heard the story of what they did to Lucy Meadows and her wife, I urge you to drop by and read it now. [tw transphobia, suicide] If you haven’t heard how the Mail tried to needle Lilly Wachowski when she came out, insisting how someone was obviously gonna out her so it might as well be them, read that too. The story of how one of their columnists used the death of a gay pop star to fuel homophobia? It happened a while ago, but it’s also a good look at how they operate - of course their story is the right one, can’t they be trusted over the words of those trained medical professionals who’re “spinning” a different story? When in doubt, misrepresent.
Even longer ago but still important - the details of their infamous pro-Nazi agenda during World War 2? Yeah, that’s a thing, too. “A beauty contest aimed at finding Britain’s prettiest woman fascist.” Wouldn’t that be a thing to see.
Guys, what I’m basically saying is… in the world we live in today (we all know what’s been going on around here recently) we’ve gotta be so careful with these things. Obviously a huge amount of the people round here don’t know what the Daily Mail actually is, don’t live in the same country even, I’m not really blaming anyone. It’s just, you know - that’s how they get you. “Well, I was angry about the writers for a upcoming superhero movie, and the Mail validated that anger by making them seem like arrogant villains. What else’ve they got?” Click, click, click. Outrage, outrage, outrage. Most popular English-language news website in the world.
I’m sure Infinity War will be just fine.
