They're bigger on the OUTSIDE. (Esp Ten's. It's MASSIVE! We might have to somehow dispose of that one.
Outrageous.

If Bucky is the guy he looks out for, that he feels responsible for, then of course he'll go to ridiculous lengths to try to save him. I am 100% adopting comics canon.
I think the first Captain America movie does a good job showing him as somebody who would do this anyway. Like I said, too noble for his own good.

Literally love that film to pieces. Haven't watched it in forever, should probably remedy that. V violent, but ugh, the aesthetic is amazing.
No arguing that. It's been awhile. I think my impression of the movie was that it was mostly a serviceable adaptation of the comic (which I enjoyed very much). I could watch that trailer endlessly, though.

Oh and someone posted the most basic outline of the Wedding comic. :D (It misses a bunch of stuff - it has everything, including Thor being mansplained to whilst dressed as Freya - but you can get a feel for it.) Oh and Thor's house! <3
The Muppet band at the wedding! But, yes, that's far better than movie Thor.

Thank you! And yeah, it's a blank space of a character. :(
The Dark World does zero to remedy this. And there's something very irksome when you take an utterly generic female character love interest with no personality beyond being pretty and in love with the hero and go 'oh, but she's a scientist!' It's as if someone got the memo that you have to take female characters seriously and then had no idea how to do that. (I'm pretty sure the same applied to Bruce Banner's love interest in the original film, whose name escapes me but was also a scientist.) There's an awful beat at the beginning of Age of Ultron at the party where somebody asks where Pepper and Jane are and it's like 'oh, they're off being very important, you know how important they are.' And if it was just about Piper I'd take it because they did the work there, but Jane? Ugh.
