Starmora is still canon, stop sinking your own ship

I'm not sure why people are mad or sad about the way Gunn "ended" the Starmora relationship? It's not over, it just went through a natural resting point after all of the stuff that happened in the plot???

Because even if the characters don't share a screen anymore, that doesn't mean it's over. That doesn't mean that love can't happen twice. Gunn has laid the groundwork - you can see it if you're looking at the characters.

Gamora has always been subtle. but she commits. She puts her whole traumatized heart into something if she believes that it's the right thing. She was raised by Freaking Thanos - she was (kinda) fine with him killing half the population but when Ronan wanted All of Xandar killed she Bolted. Betrayed Ronan and by proxy Thanos and Nebula.

After Endgame, she knows how to reach the Guardians if she wanted to. Heck, she's been talking with Nebula who respects that enough to only bring her on a mission that could kill a Guardian and end their found family.

About 75% of Gamora's lines are her denying that she's the same person. She's clearly pissed as hell that Peter is trying to "bring her back" when it's clear to her that she's fine without the Guardians.

At the end of the movie, if she wanted to be on the same team as Peter, she would have stayed on Knowhere. If she never wanted to see Peter again, she wouldn't have said anything.

By saying "I bet we were fun" its a signal to both Peter AND the audience that she is fine to stay in contact. That she acknowledges that her love with Peter could happen again.

As for Peter...

Peter loves HARD. He's never been subtle about it. He's never been subtle about feelings; happy, sad, angry, romantic - he boosts them up and uses them as a distraction, makes others think he's not sharp as an arrow.

He values Gamora's choices. We see him flirting at Knowhere, she pulls a knife on him and he doesn't directly flirt again for a while. You see that in Vol 2 when he's patient about her having feelings. He SHOT HER in Infinity War because she told him to. She's dead but she knows - she knows that's love.

We know he respects her choices in all situations...except in Vol 3. He's more childish and clingy especially compared to the other Guardians - they don't try as hard as Peter does to get her back. I feel like this is justified; he's already heavily traumatized from Infinity War and as acknowledged in the movie(!) Peter is dependent on Gamora in a way that the other Guardians aren't.

And with Vol 3, he's lost that part of him. He just wants "his Gamora" back. And it's cringy and sad and messed up.

You can parallel it to Thanos, who just saw "his little one", a daughter he trained to be a weapon and didn't acknowledge as a person. You can parallel it to the High Evolutionary, who wants his creations "perfect" and only sees Rocket as a failure that needs to be utterly destroyed.

(yeah it's a theme, its kickass writing, it's *chefs kiss* thank you mr. Gunn for tying this all up with a big fancy bow)

Peter is stronger than both of them. Able to move past what he thinks he needs and see Gamora as she is now instead of as he wants her to be.

"Like you wouldn't believe." He finally has something in his past that is complicated but at the end of the day, he can smile about it. An ending he can be at peace with.

Both of them know that they are not the same people that met on Xandar outside the pawn broker's shop. Fighting over their ticket out from under Yondu and Thanos.

But they know they could be good to each other again. It's just going to take some time apart.

Infinity War: Cool things

i hope these shit movie reviews are what im known for on tumblr. also after i left the employee screening i drove the hour it takes to get back to my house in silence because of this movie. had to break this bullshit into two posts so here is just some cool scenes n stuff from the movie

LOKI. my sweet boy, my precious baby boy. what have you done

Ebony Maw is such a slimy fuck

when Loki says “Odinson” and looks right at Thor im dying

yeah i really didn’t need Thor crying over his brothers corpse but thanks anyway

Dr. Strange and Wong are adorable

Tony literally dreaming about having a child

im not even lying when i say the cloak is my favorite character i love it so much

when it smacks Tony for leaning on the cauldron

Tony falls into the role of leader so easily im

you can see Tom’s best friend in real life Harrison behind him during the bus scene

when Peter is tapping Ned and he pats his face

when Dr. Strange winked at Tony

Tony taking off his glasses as his suit forms (a look)

ok i love the way Dr. Strange fights like his little hand movements and stuff its so cool bye

i don think i can love Tony and Peter Parker's relationship any more

he calls him Pete

the fact that the guardians sing together

pirate angel

when wanda throws proxima midnight backwards over her head

when little gamora was like “where’s my mother” and then it immediately cut to Thanos i couldn’t stop imaging him going “im ur mother now”

um gamora and freaking Obi-Wan Kenobi have similar fighting stances

Quill was so heartbroken when he was like “I told you to go right”

my man Peter Quill was actually gonna shoot Gamora and that breaks my heart

Sam’s beard (!! !!!! ! !)

why is Chris Evans such a snack in this movie

Bucky was so tired when they showed him the arm and he was like “where’s the fight”

Tony’s face when he first sees Peter inside the flying donut

Thor can talk to Groot because he took the language as a fucking elective im

when Tony calls Quill “Mr. Lord”

um?? Marvel? either you have a romance between bruce and nat or you dont bc that stupid “hey bruce” “oh hey nat” was dumb

ok i love him and all but Peter Dinklage took me so far out of this movie like i know he had lore or whatever but the whole time i was just like “oh that’s peter dinklage just chilin, doin his thing”

Eitri: We need to restart this star! Thor: hold my beer

Rocket: howr we gonna do this wait what are you doing to my ship Thor: yeet

ok so like i said i saw this early bc i work at a threate so it was just employees and some managers in the theatre and i swear to yall i actually literally shouted “UHH WHOS FUCKIN MANS?” when Red Skull showed up

Gamora’s death scene was super cool i really liked it

her speech before she died was really good, i thought it was written really well and i thought Zoe Saldana delivered it well

the music for that scene was fucking TOP boys

i mEan im not happy shes dead but i just liked the scene ok

Peter Quill going “Boom!”, flipping off Thanos, then jumping backwards into a portal is a mood

I'm glad someone acknowledged the fact that Thanos' chin looks like a ballsack

when Dr. Strange turned into Zenyatta

Thanos: i thought you might be hungry Gamora: yeet

Groot was so sad seeing Thor hurt

LITTLE GROOT GIVING HIS ARM FOR THAT HAMMER IM

Tony’s face when Thanos grabs a whole ass moon

when Dr. Strange grabbed the time stone and IT WAS A STAR

Thor looked really dope with that eye

vision kept whispering “it’s all right” to Wanda while she’s killing him

THANOS STOP TOUCHING EVERYONE'S HAIR

That scene where Steve keeps asking Thor where Thanos went and all Thor can do is just look at him because he knows. He knows exactly what Thanos did

you could literally hear a pin drop in the theatre after he snapped his fingers

Sebastian Stan had no right to say “Steve” like he did right before he disappeared

T’challa’s last words were “this is no place to die”

When Drax dies and Drax goes "Quill?" really scared and soft

right before Quill died his eyes turned red (????)

I REALLY DIDN’T NEED TONY CRADLING PETER IN HIS ARMS WHILE HE CRIES AND SAYS I DONT WANT TO GO PLEASE MR STARK
