man y’all remember when the avengers movie came out and everyone headcanoned that all the avengers would live together in the tower and had all these cute posts about various fun ways they could interact and then the movies literally never had any of them even be friends
I want to state, for the record, that “all the avengers would live together in the tower” wasn’t collective headcanon, it was canon. The very last scene of Avengers (2012), the one they left us on, is Tony redesigning the tower, designing a living area for each Avenger. That was, canonically, what was supposed to happen, in canon, and they just changed their minds and decided to… not. For whatever goldarn reason.
GHHFDGJHFDS THATS EVEN FUNNIER WHY IS MARVEL LIKE THIS
“But where’s that light coming from” BITCH IT’S FANTASY WHO CARES
but also I don’t give a fuck if it’s fantasy or Gritty Reality. light your fuckin scenes properly because film is a visual medium and you’re meant to be telling me a story through visual information. I promise you I will not be as irritated by a slightly non-diagetic light source as by being Literally Squinting To Partially Make Out Some Of What’s Happening On Screen
What pissed me off even more than not seeing most of one of the most anticipated episodes in the entire series were the interviews with the directors and cinematographers afterwards talking about the reason it was so dark was that it was meant to be seen in a darkened cinema on a giant screen, apparently completely oblivious to the fact that they were shooting a TELEVISION show, for a network conveniently called HOME Box Office, and that most of their viewers actually watched via streaming on the internet.
ala, actual adult. I like to put things in boxes and have a compulsive need to fact check. warning: blog contains copious references to comics, sci-fi, history, movies, cats and general nerdery.
