lmao so i was just going through my camera roll and clearing some photos out, when i stumbled across this screenshot i took in january of 2020 and…
Tumblr media
i’m in shock. i literally don’t know how i forgot this happened, like i was actually astounded when i found this. NEVER forget when steve rogers’ ending was so horrifically out-of character that SEBASTIAN STAN HIMSELF posted a screenshot to instagram of a tweet dogging on his ending. it’s been years and i still haven’t forgiven marvel. i don’t think i ever will.

Steve’s Endgame Ending fixed
What if at the end of Endgame when Steve is returning the stones, he has to give up something he loves, right? So what if he gives up his super-serum effects (an au tweaked and borrowed from @growingpaynes-art ), and turns back into pre-serum-Steve? A list of reasons why I think this would work:
A) Straight off the bat it’s easy to keep Steve in the MCU with Chris Evans’ contract ending if they replace the actor who plays pre-serum-Steve (obviously with a guy who looks similar to the first movie, but without the CGI). I know people might be confused why he looks different but the MCU’s changed actors before and it’s not the hardest stretch of the imagination. Also thematically it’d be cool to have Steve be literally unrecognisable to the audience.
B) I think a lot of writers for the Avengers are so focused on writing ‘Captain America’; ‘bland, stoic, with no sense of humor’, that they forget about Steve Rogers; the young disabled man who would put his life on the line to fight fascists. This would be a great way to get back to the basics of Steve’s character and show the audience who he truly is.
C) Honestly it would just be nice to show that Steve is just as righteous and brave with his disabilities, something not often shown in media. Even the MCU likes to focus on Steve’s asthma and ignore that he actually was disabled. (which i’ll touch on in a second).
*and now for some more headcannon-y stuff*
A) From screenshots from the movie, and a list at Disneylands Tomorrowland exhibit, the canon list of Steve’s disabilites and health problems are:
Asthma
Anemia
Diabetes
Color-blindness
Arrhythmia
Scoliosis
Chronic colds
High blood pressure
Easy fatigability
Heart trouble
Sinusitis
Fallen arches
Partial deafness
Stomach ulcers
Pernicious Anemia
Astigmatism
Nervous troubles of any sort
History of; scarlet fever, rheumatic fever
(Jesus Christ Steven)
B) It’d be cute to see Steve actually be able live with his disabilities, unlike in the 30’s. I cannot stress how much eugenics there was back then (and still is now, but WAY more casually acceptable back then). Even the actual Captain America storyline reeks of it a bit; experiment on a disabled man to ‘fix’ him and turn him into a soldier. However in the 21st century imagine if he could get the help he actually needs! Obviously a lot of his stuff is chronic, but he could actually live with it instead of just surviving like he would have done. And be able to afford them, unlike back in the Great Depression. Back braces, inhaler, mobility aids etc. It’d be nice to see a disabled person living with themselves as the HAPPY ending, instead of as a tragedy as it’s usually played.
C) The story of him actually seeing worth in his old (new?) body and himself instead of just a vessel for Captain America. A self-acceptance arc. Being able to retire in peace without anyone recognising him as Captain America without having to give up his life in the 21st century.
D) The Smithsonian exhibit is so closely tailored to his propaganda persona that it fails to acknowledge him as a person. I wouldn’t be surprised if the general public has never even seen a photo of him pre-serum, or knew how bad his illnesses were besides ‘just asthmatic and skinny’. He could easily walk around and not be noticed by anyone.
Tldr: Steve’s proper ending in Endgame should have had him return to his skinny form in exchange for the stone, and him being able to retire to finish art school in peace.

The Russo brothers need to explain this scene to me
Tumblr media
the reason this makes no sense is because Natasha's full and legal name is Natalia Alianovna Romanova. In Russia, the middle is patronymic, created by using the child’s father’s name with the suffix “vich” or “ovich” for boys, and “avna” or “ovna” for girls. This means ‘son of’ and ‘daughter of’.
Natasha's name basically translates to: Natalia daughter of Alian Romanova
So, Russo brothers, who is Ivan?? Who tf is he!?Because he's not Natasha's biological father otherwise her middle would be Ivanovna, which it isn't!
"b-but it's a comic reference🙄🥺" It is one (in one way or another) to Ivan Petrovich Bezukhov, Natasha's foster father in the comics who saved her when she was a baby and eventually raised her. However, Ivan caught sexual feelings for Natasha, his daughter, and wanted to sleep with her. (Natasha killed him because of that)

I mean I might say I’m a fan of the MCU, but really I’m a fan of the version where characters and their arcs are written by people passionate about them instead of by a soulless, corrupt corporation looking to make a quick buck.

you ever think about the fact that earlier drafts of serpent society/sputnik were gonna address buckys entire time away from steve and then contrast that with their reunion and also focus on the memory wiping machine’s “mind crown” which was gonna parallel namor’s serpent crown and thus perfectly tie together the literal/mythrical and modernized mcu hydra elements alongside bucky’s past and then the russos just said “that’s too hard” and made up some random fucking triggers words that they could later DELETE??? as if that makes any sense, thats how conditioning works, that’s how the brain works, or that’s how trauma works

I’m so so so sick of the MCU being a Howard Stark apologist. Howard is canonically emotionally neglectful and verbally abusive. Every negative aspect of Tony’s personality was developed from his negative relationship with his father (traits he later overcame and become more open with his emotions). Tony was an amazing father to both his kids in spite of his abuse.
I HATE the scene with Howard and Tony in Endgame because instead of giving Tony closure, like the scene was intended to do, they instead decided to make it about Tony ‘realizing’ his abuse wasn’t really abuse compared to his father’s childhood. The entire scene portrays the (disgusting) narrative that the only ‘real’ abuse is physical, which completely neglects every other MCU writer/directed portraying otherwise (Clint’s mother, Odin, etc).
Howard Stark is an abusive, horrible father. The fact that he claims to care for his unborn son to a stranger doesn’t change this. Even if Howard’s intentions were good like the the writers try to claim (which they weren’t), that doesn’t change the years of neglect and abuse that Tony suffered through and that every other adult in his life allowed.

Whenever I think of Steve Harrington and his relationship with Nancy Wheeler, all that hurt and pain that the Russo Brothers are too chicken to actually show... I think of this audio. This is a great example of the conversation that Steve and Nancy should have had. If they get back together in season 5 it really will be the WORST outcome for both characters because they BOTH deserve so much better than each other. Because it was pretty toxic. Like I would rather watch Steve die the most tragic heart wrenching death all alone than see him get back with Nancy.

Like, I know Cap lives rent-free in my head, but like... Cap 2 and Cap 3 are such fatally flawed movies.
Not because the concepts are bad - the idea of Hydra infiltrating SHIELD like that and trying to take over is a compelling story. The idea of a fight between superheroes over the question of oversight, regulation, etc - that’s a good one too.
Of course, Cap 3 was also fatally mixed with the Bucky/Winter Soldier stuff which... really should have been it’s own movie?
But the whole Shield/Hydra thing? The Civil War? Those were great concepts for MCU movies.
But they shouldn’t have been Captain America movies, in the sense that they were headlined with him as the main/title hero. Captain America, the man with the subtly of a stinger missile, in a movie about spies and spy agencies and secret terrorist plots? That should have been a Black Widow Movie. A Hawkeye Movie. A Nick Fury movie. Anything but a Cap Movie.
Anything but the guy whose whole strategy is ‘hit it with my shield until it stops being a problem’
And the whole premise of the Civil War in the comics is that both sides had a point, and that Red Skull was deliberately making things worse at various points. So it shouldn’t have been a Captain America movie, because then the title character has to be the guy in the right, the hero, whatever.
Like, I just...
You put the wrong guy in the wrong movie?! 
Who authorized the Schedule? And genuinely, I ask, what the fuck were the Russo Brothers Smoking?
