Image description: The really great part is the commentary by an extra below, but for form’s sake: a greyscale illustrated (sort of a charcoal style? I’m not very artistic) comic, three panels, reenacting the Stuttgart scene in The Avengers.

PANEL 1: Loki addressing the crowd: “Is this not your natural state? It’s the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation. You were made to be ruled.”

PANEL 2: Loki in closeup: “In the end, you will always kneel.”

PANEL 3: Two men and a woman in the front row of the crowd, all kneeling. Dark-haired bespectacled guy: “Wovon zur Hölle redet der?” Light-haired tuxedo guy: “Scheisse, ich hab keine Ahnung.” Translated in yellow font below: “The fuck is he going on about?” ” - Fuck if I know.”

WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT I KEPT IMAGINING WHILE I WAS WATCHING THE MOVIE.

#Fun fact: We were asked to scream when running out of the gala #but none of us knew much german #so a lot of people were screaming the only German things they knew #Wiener Schnitzel #Oktoberfest #Schadenfreude

Omg, Revvi. Are you serious? LMAO

100% serious. The three I tagged were the most common, but there was a few ”kindergarten”s here and there as well. One girl really did know German, and she was utterly baffled by what was going on.

this is the best story

Oh my god I’m dying… It’s just the mental image… a crazy alien has just stabbed a man in his eye (sort of) and people run away screaming “OKTOBERFEST!” canlskcjanscjkna send help kslnckasnc

This is officially the best thing ever. I’d like subtitles for the screaming on the DVD, plz.

Image description: the Avengers parade in the style of Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are,drawn sort of like children, I guess? Left to right: Captain America saluting; Iron Man (well, yes, obviously children have scruffy goatees) with Loki’s staff; Black Widow with a grey banner reading “Shield!”; Hawkeye looking kind of—suspiciously at Hulk behind him? Seriously, I don’t know what his deal is; Hulk drawn as one of the Wild Things, about twice as big as everyone else; a very cheerful Thor brandishing his hammer; and Loki, head bowed and mouth covered, on a leash that Thor is holding (seriously? I’m not a Loki fangirl but that is way harsh, Tai).

Thus concludes our morning of adorable Avengers fan art. Maybe.

True.

And take a quick guess at which design is actually being used in the new Batman movie?

It would be nice to see a refreshingly realistic take on a catwoman/catburglar figure.

“Apparently there’s an internet campaign to get the North American ending in the British version. Do you have a preference?

I think I prefer the version without the kiss. Only because I find it quite difficult to watch myself anyway. But I don’t know, I find it saccharine”.

(Matthew Macfadyen)

VOM. Matthew, I could not agree more.

Well, hi, Bret McKenzie, from The Flight of the Conchords! Congratulations on winning an Oscar!

“Aw, thanks – it’s completely nuts, isn’t it? for the past 24 hours I really thought I wasn’t going to get it so I was practising my face.”

Your loser face? Don’t losers always just smile politely and clap? So are you saying, Bret, other facial options are available to losers besides grace and ecstasy?

“Oh yeah, I wanted to do this” – he reels back in horror, face in hands. “Or maybe this” – he mouths exaggeratedly a word that is not suitable for a family newspaper. “I thought that would work.”

That would TOTALLY work! It almost makes me regret that you won. But, you know, not really.

“Yeah. Not really.”

f*ckyeah-nerdery:

Saw this picture on imgur and just had to post it here, because this is without a doubt, one of the most badass women alive. Meet Katrina Hodge, a corporal in the British Army and Miss England 2009. According to Wikipedia, she enlisted back in 2004 after her brother challenged her to and earned the nickname “Combat Barbie” after showing up at her assigned unit wearing false eyelashes, kitten heels (whatever those are) and carry a pink suitcase. In 2005 her unit, the Royal Anglian Regiment, was deployed to Iraq, where she saved the lives of her comrades from a prisoner by wrestling not one, but two rifles from him and then knocking his ass out with her bare hands.

With her bare hands.

Then in 2009, she decided to compete in the Miss England competition to destroy stereotypes about women in the military. She didn’t win (she placed runner-up), but still became Miss England after the woman who did got into a fight and gave up the crown. While Miss England, Hodge convinced the people running the competition to ditch the bikini contest, because she felt that it was more important to be a role model than looking good in a bikini.

In 2010, she handed over the crown and returned to military service, being deployed to Afghanistan.

This woman is both a BAMF and a HBIC. Damn.
