When I say she’s the most underrated marvel character

“You were the one who wanted to win and I just wanted a sister” sorry I didn’t hear that over the sound of my own sobbing

#like seriously #her character development over the movies #one of the most interesting stories #please give nebula a hug #or a handshake #maybe she’s not a hug person #she just deserves happiness #her little smile when she wins against Tony on the ship #if it wasn’t for her he would’ve died #nebula #marvel #Gotg #guardians of the galaxy #nebula marvel #karen gillan #comics #marvel movie #guardians of the galaxy 3 #mcu

Oculus (2013) deserves more recognition than it got. The whole idea of characters being wronged by an entity, then going back in with a vengeance only to realize maybe, even with preparation and even if you're being as smart as possible, there's still no winning against that entity, is really a+

#i love it. it feels like one of those 'smart' horror movies??#and even tho the characters make irrational choices you can understand why they make those choices #they're not 'plot by stupid' choices like in prometheus or something #and they try to actually tackle the problem logically and think of every possible angle which is rare #i really love how it doesn't scream 'overproduced' too it doesn't ham out on the horror elements it's super understated and it works imo #the music is good too #oculus #horror #horror movies #movies #karen gillan #brenton thwaites

WAS NO ONE GOING TO TELL ME THAT BRADLEY WALSH PLAYED A VILLAIN, THE LITERAL PIED PIPER, IN THE SARAH JANE ADVENTURES OR DID I JUST HAVE TO LEARN THAT MYSELF WATCHING SEASON 2 OF SJA MYSELF HOLY SHIT-

watched The Big Short today and kept thinking 'hey this film is a bit weird about women huh' and then the credits saying brad pitt was not only in it but in fact produced it made me go 'ahh now it all makes sense'

#like the margot robbie and selena gomez stuff is basically lampshaded #but karen gillan's character feels. well. her and baum's wife are the only two female characters #(as in not playing themselves to present an idea)#and uh. real madonna/whore complex thing going there huh.

Cant get into him. i respect that he tried and was very popular but like he really had to follow david tennant #and thats just impossible to do well.#no but seriously im watching dr who again bc i ran OUT out of tv and hbo max took away my comfort shows #so here i am in a dr who phase again. but this time i actually have to watch all of 11 so i can get to Old Man and Woman and then ill be #caught up for new doc #ANYWAYS. pls ignore this i wish i could set posts to private LMAOOOO

Me and Zoe are so bonded through the experience of playing these characters. It's crazy, like, we feel really protective over this sister relationship and how it's played on-screen . It's something that really matters to the both of us. It's something that we have just connected with. And over the years it's resulted in a very strong bond between us, I would say. - Karen Gillan

*LONG POST WARNING*

What your favourite New Who Companion says about you (absolutely no offence meant towards anyone, this is just for fun):

Rose: Either the most vanilla person alive, or an RTD era purist. Has spent years fighting for the honor of the RTD era. Ships Ten and Rose to the degree that they shudder at the thought of the Doctor having a relationship with someone else. Is constantly at war with Amy stans. Part of the reason for the RTD enjoyer vs Moffat fan civil war. Usually nice in real life, and quite nostalgic for the Tennant era, so usually OK to be friends with. Unless they say Mickey was treated fairly, at which point, you should run.

Mickey: One of the most kind-hearted, empathetic people, who saw how Mickey was mistreated by Rose in S2 and immediately just wanted to check if he was OK. Is able to hold decent relations with Rose stans due to Mickey's character development after the relationship, and has a surprisingly strong alliance with Rory fans. Was gutted when they heard about Noel Clarke's horrible behaviour and actions.

Adam: Let's be real, we all forgot this guy existed and for good reason.

Captain Jack: Every night, they lie in bed, haunted by the ghost of Torchwood. Loved seeing Jack again in S12, but felt disappointed after his lack of presence in Revolution of the Daleks. Has modelled several aspects of their personality on the Captain, and has the dating life (or lack thereof) to prove it. Cried at the deaths of Ianto and John Barrowman's career.

Martha: Basically Rose fans, except with slightly more indie music taste. Either that, or a person who knows how integral Martha is to 10's character arc. Has attempted to defend the "Space Jesus" scene a couple of times, and cried with happiness when Harbo Wholmes said that it worked in his review. Has a bit of a patchy relationship with Rose stans due to the Doctor's rebound arc, gets along better with Donna stans due to the fact that S4 acknowledged that 10 mistreated Martha. Generally has good taste and is nice to be around, just don't mention how undeveloped her relationship with Tom was.

Donna: Either a child of the late 90s/early 2000s who had the joy of watching New Who at it's peak in 2008, a person who really appreciates great character writing and an excellent series, or someone who just wanted a break from the companion having a romantic subplot. Often gets into heated arguments with Amy stans by (correctly) saying that Series 4 was better than Series 5. Uses Donna's funny dialogue and quips to hide the fact they are still recovering from one of the cruellest companion exits in the show. Generally nice, but very defensive of The Doctor's Daughter.

Wilf: I love these guys. Knows that a) Wilf is the single best character in the entirety of New Who and b) he counts as a companion. Has the best possible taste, and is an absolute joy to be around as a result of it. An emotional wreck after every single rewatch of The End of Time, especially now that the legendary Bernard Cribbins has left us. Has excellent relations with Donna stans, and was similarly overjoyed when they heard about the 60th. Refuses to admit that The End of Time would have possibly worked better as a 90 minute special.

Amy: Definitely has followed the eons-old teaching of "gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss" at some point. Refuses to admit A Good Man Goes to War was mid and that Amy really badly mistreated our sweet prince Rory in a large chunk of S5. Is really happy that Karen Gillan made it big in Hollywood. Friendly unless you say you prefer Rose to Amy. Could not be comforted after that cameo in Time of the Doctor.

Rory: Their favourite episode is usually The Girl Who Waited. Loyal, friendly, introverted and lovable, they of course identify with Rory's slightly long-suffering but accepting and funny character. Understandably annoyed at how Amy mistreated Rory in S5, but happy that S6 & 7A fixed that marriage. Thanks to Rory waiting for 2000 years, their bar for any personal relationship has been set insanely high. Celebrated when the BBC actually allowed Arthur Darvill to style his hair in S7A. Had to check Rory was definitely dead at the end of Angels Take Manhattan due to Moffat killing him whenever more tension was needed in a story.

River Song: Divided into two groups. Those who like River Song's more nuanced appearances in Silence in the Library, A Good Man Goes to War and The Husbands of River Song are awesome. Those who prefer the episodes that Moffat wrote with one hand, less so. Was overjpyed to see the Moffat Era reappraisal of 2020, only to be slightly disappointed when people said S6 was his weakest series. Wierdly enough, gets along nicely with all other companion stans. Has definitely said "Hello sweetie" to their partner/partners/friends/pets. If they prefer 12 and River to 11 and River, pass them the aux on a long journey (trust me on this one).

Clara: From my personal experience, there is a 60% chance that they are a closeted bisexual. Doesn't get why Clara was so overhated, especially in S9. Is wierdly OK with admitting that Victorian Clara was slightly more interesting to begin with, but knows that the character worked so well in 12's era. If they ship 11 and Clara, keep an eye on them. They haven't fully earned your trust yet.

Bill: Heterosexuality was never an option. Gets along well with Clara stans, as they both know how much the 12th Doctor's era s l a p p e d. Had their emotions mangled during the S10 finale, but fortunately came out intact thanks to that puddle and a happy-ish ending. Loved that Bill called 12 out on his bullshit and asked all the trivial questions we were all thinking. Singlehandedly drove the Moffat Era reappraisal over quarantine. Has the best fashion sense out of all the stans.

Nardole: A terrifying enigma. Looked at all the companions with complex stories, interesting arcs and major development, but instead went with the comic relief. Yes, Nardole is funny and a great support character, but... er... how? They can be nice. They can also be fans of Little Britain, which is a red flag. It's a roll of the dice.

Graham: Bradley Walsh was the highlight of the slightly undervalued S11, and they know it. Definitely has the vibe of being 10+ years older than they actually are in terms of attitude, but in the best way. Has definitely owned a pair of cords in their life. Goes into Doctor Who just looking for a fun hour of entertainment rather than lore. Great to hang out with. They always bring snacks.

Ryan: Tries to ignore the fact that Ryan has the most fucking insulting depiction of dyspraxia in any form of media (sorry, I have dyspraxia, and the way it was treated in S11 & 12 just really rubbed me the wrong way), but is also helpful and really in favour of spreading awareness. We're cool for now.

Yaz: One of the nicest, most well-intentioned people you will ever meet, always defending the underdog, supporting others and just being sweeter than a tea with six sugars, but also a master of illusion. Has read so many fan fictions, seen so much fan art and shipped Thasmin so much that they have tricked themselves into thinking Yaz is a three-dimensional, well-written character whose story was not completely made up on the go by Chibnall. Little more than a defeated husk after Power of the Doctor, being rewarded for all those years of fanfics, shipping and defending the era with a couple of longing stares and some hastily written "will they/won't they" scenes before 13 unceremoniously booted Yaz out of the TARDIS. Thinks Demons of the Punjab is the best 13 episode when it is really The Haunting of Villa Diodati.

Dan: Is more of a fan of John Bishop and his charisma than they are a fan of Dan, or is a terminally online person who thinks quoting "Evil Dan" videos makes them the funniest human alive (it really doesn't).

So, this truly a great scene. The entire opening of Endgame is, in my opinion is fantastic because it really gets the characters. It fully understands what made Tony so intriguing in the first place. How he survives through connection with others and humor. It's not so much Tony making jokes to avoid reality, but him using wit to take what little control he can over the situation. And what's so great about the paper football scene specifically is seeing that humanity in Tony. Not only trying form a connection, but we see him show some genuine empathy. This whole thing is for fun, but he clearly sees a win is what Nebula needs.

Nebula, someone who presents herself so tough and angry all the time this is a great scene showing a quit vulnerability. Just playing a game is something she's never done, but she's trying so hard. She might have patched things up with her sister but being shown kindness and friendship are still such foreign concept to her she doesn't know how to react. Tony makes an effort to be nice and Nebula does repay that kindness both in turning down rations and placing a jacket on Tony when it seems like it's the end.

Both RDJ and Karen Gillan absolutely killed it.

What I find so frustrating is that there much about Endgame that annoys me, and I think is just terrible. I hate the endings they give to so many characters, I don't like so many of the tropes used and just the treatment of some characters is just insulting. I hate that the directors and writing show how competent they can be in the opening only to fumble it so hard elsewhere throughout the rest of the movie.

Racebending In The Harry Potter Fandom

In 2012, the fan cast were all white actors- Andrew Garfield for Remus Lupin, Ben Barnes for Sirius Black, Aaron Taylor Johnson for James Potter, Karen Gillan for Lily Evans. However, as the years progressed, fans pointed out that all the actors chosen as face claims were much too old to play the role of characters who died at 38, 36, and 21 respectively. As the Marauders fandom had another wave of popularity with All The Young Dudes in 2020, fans started to use younger face claims who were young enough to be in their late teens and early 20s, and they also began to racebend characters like James Potter and Sirius Black. Making James Potter Desi and making Sirius Black East Asian offered much more nuance to their characters. However, there’s also been a rise in Harry Potter edits using the original fancast- the all white one. I think this is a reaction to the diverse fan casts that have been used in edits over the last two years- white fans are uncomfortable no longer seeing themselves in every character, so they’ve reverted back to the 2012 fan cast.

The fan spaces are predominantly white, which is evident by the fans who make TikToks with their own faces instead of their faceclaims. The racebending of James Potter and Sirius Black, however, has shown that those who do identify as South or East Asian do carry power in the fandom, and they are able to bring their own experiences into the fandom. For example, making James South Asian and making Sirius East Asian can offer more nuance and power to the canonical events in the Harry Potter texts, like James’ in-laws being rude to him and abusive to his son was because of their race, and Sirius’ family uses shame and guilt to manipulate their children because of the shame cultures that are so prominent in East Asian countries. The experiences that Asian fans have had in the real world have influenced so much how they view the Harry Potter texts, and therefore it also influences their transformative content they produce as well.
