Best characters in Marvel movies who weren’t the main star. A thread.
Kicking it off with my favorite. Hela (Thor: Ragnarok)

She’s the goddess of death which is more metal than all of Daenerys Targaryen’s titles combined. She makes an entrance by impaling a bunch of warriors and looks hot doing it.
Tied with Valkyrie (Thor: Ragnarok)

She takes no shit from anyone, isn’t impressed by Thor’s handsomeness, and I mean, come on.
Honorable mention for Jeff Goldblum for just Jeff Goldbluming it up every second he’s on screen. Damn this was a good movie
General Okoye (Black Panther)

In a glamorous evening gown she fought a club full of men with just a spear and she can talk to giant Wakanda rhinos.
Yelena (Black Widow)

Besides being a total badass she straight up mocks the star of the movie repeatedly for her team’s battle poses.
Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Deadpool)

How can you not love a little girl who serves grown men with solid owns on the regular?
Domino (Deadpool 2)

Being lucky is in fact a super power.
Laura/X-23 (Logan)

Wolverine has to tell HER to chill out. Enough said.
Spider-Gwen (Into the Spider-verse)

Please just watch this movie. My god.
Nebula (Guardians of the Galaxy)

Living in the shadow of her sister, and mutated by her awful “father.” She’s pissed but for legitimately valid reasons. Plus she rocks the bald part-cyborg look.
Scarlet Witch (literally every movie she’s been in)

I don’t think I need to elaborate on this one.
Maria (Captain Marvel)

Without her Carol would’ve acted without thinking and royally fucked up. Plus she doesn’t hesitate to call Carol on her shit.
Also huge props to Monica
Shadowcat and Siryn (X-2 uncredited but it’s clearly supposed to be them)

I’ve always been a Rogue fan but I hated the way she was depicted in the movies. Why not do a Rogue origin story where they explain the fucked up way she got her flight and superhuman strength?

Just so we’re clear here, Florida wants to ban children from discussing their periods but also wants student athletes to report their periods, in case you were still unclear about how fucking dumb these people are.
Yes I’m aware that they are also very evil, thanks reply guys.
Muting replies now because people keep saying “no they’re not dumb they’re evil” when my fucking point was the 2 things they want to do that I mentioned in the above post TOTALLY CONTRADICT EACH OTHER. You can’t not talk about periods and talk about them at the same time, folks.

Can we please talk about the “rape or incest exception” for abortion? First of all, abortion should be legal for any reason but let’s just dissect this so-called “exception.”
In order for rape or incest to even be considered, the case has to have been reported to the police, and those who do report know how that goes. But that doesn’t even prove rape or incest. First a rape kit has to be done. And we know how quickly rape kits are reviewed.
But! Even if the rape kit is reviewed, that doesn’t mean the man is guilty of rape. He’ll say it was consensual and it’ll go to trial.

The Kamala Harris “Bluetooth scandal” is just further evidence that it was never “but her emails,” it was always “but they’re females.”
Trump literally told Russia to hack Hillary’s emails and people are criticizing Kamala for… trying to protect national security?
You do realize how stupid you sound criticizing politicians for dumb shit like buying a $375 pan, right? If you have a valid criticism go right ahead but this nonsense just makes you sound ignorant.

Banning abortions unless we’re raped is saying we don’t earn autonomy over our own bodies until a man violates it.
Also important to note that it’s extremely hard to prove rape. Victims are accused of lying and that will become more common if the only way to get an abortion is if you’re raped. Also it takes time to prove rape. Time isn’t something someone who wants an abortion has a lot of.
Does the victim have to wait for the rapist to be convicted of rape to have the abortion? Charged with rape? What if the rapist is a stranger? What if he’s never found? So the rape exception isn’t really an exception at all.

Just so we’re all clear, critical race theory isn’t taught in elementary school but active shooter drills are.
Your elementary school kid didn’t come home crying because he was taught CRT, but I would believe it if you said he came home crying because he had to participate in an active shooter drill.
I guess in a way, active shooter drills are CRT considering almost all school shooters are white males.
