Watched the trailer(s) for Avengers: Infinity War. (That is the name, yes?) SO MANY CHARACTERS. Half the film must just be people meeting each other. (Which is cool and all, but unless it's five hours long how will they get all the action in too?) Ah well, I'm sure it'll be a wonderful roller-coaster ride of epic proportions.

1. I dislike the plot on principle. Bad Guy who needs to collect magical McGuffins in order to destroy the world is not interesting. There may be more to it, but it's not strikingly original. As a structure on which to hang 'LET'S BAND TOGETHER ALLLLLL THE HEROES' it of course works nicely. But that does not make it clever.

2. I can't help but hear Deadpool's voice in my head. He's just the perfect narrator to undercut all the bombastic overblown stuff.

3. In direct contrast to all this snark & skepticism, this single screenshot is basically the only thing I really want? I'm not particularly bothered about watching the film, but THIS SHOT just hit me. Tony Stark, how can you emote so much harder in a single frame than everyone else in a whole movie franchise? Truly you are the Spike of the Marvel world.

I... HOW? WHY. What.

Have Yourself A Fluffy Cluffy Buffy Christmas

As a Jew. On Easter, even. I feel very qualified to tell you that you people need Jesus.

If only they'd listen to what he actually said...

Oh shit! Meep.

“You people need Jesus” is a meme reply to things that you find off color, ie here as a joke about Buffy/Clem.

That said, (as a Heb or not) I wish you a peaceful Easter and blessings to you and yours.

Ahhh.

I was somewhat confused, but all now makes sense.

I thought maybe it was a nice Easter-y message, but you couldn't comment on that post.

And yes, I absolutely understand. It's... the pairing that proves that fandom will provide EVERYTHING. Whether you want it or not...

Oh and many blessings to you and yours too! ♥

JEWS COULD NOT COMMENT ON YOUR POST. Maybe bc we are all in Israel for Passover. (Every Seder, you end by saying "Next year in Israel").

Rule ... 34 I think they call it?

Thank you! And Happy Easter. I'm with you on remembering the real message. Your Guy was one of us after all. Somehow we lost all that amidst guns and insanity.

I think that's porn. As in, if you can think of it, there's porn of it. Maybe this is 34a or something.

I almost wrote that! Jesus was a Jew through and through. All his followers were Jews. We were listening to the story of the Passover at the Easter vigil. It's all interconnected. And then all the hatred and violence and (ongoing) prejudice just makes me sad.

Right? His Last Supper was a SEDER. Which is why I always facepalm when the paintings show BREAD.
