Me, about to rewatch First Class: This movie can’t possibly be half as gay and sad as I remember it

Me, 2h12 later, crying: I was wrong

You want to know why Inigo Montoya remains such an iconic and beloved character even 35 years after the Princess Bride came out?

It's because he's one of the few characters in fiction who has a story where he has dedicated his life to revenge, his whole motivation is about getting revenge....and he gets it! and then he isn't empty or despairing! he doesn't regret it! he's totally satisfied!

because so many stories about revenge or rage are about characters "seeing the futility of their actions" or learning "their desire for revenge has only made them the monsters they hated" FUCK THAT.

Inigo Montoya kills the man who kills his father, is allowed to live in the narrative after and be happy about it and it is so satisfying. it's fantastic. it's iconic.

let more characters rage against the world, bring it down with bloodied hands, and let them be FUCKING RIGHT about it. Let them celebrate their success with sharp grins, and let them live happy, full lives where they always remain proud/fulfilled for what they've done

I already reblogged this poll, but I did not elaborate nearly enough.

The answer is that Charles initiates the call (on cerebro, not a traditional phone,) then Erik initiates phone sex. The interaction goes something like this, every time:

Charles, telepathically: Erik, this plan will get a bunch of people killed. Don't do the thing.

Erik: I definitely need to do the thing. And humans who are oppressing mutants dying is a feature, not a bug.

Charles: Then I will have to stop you. I should go get ready for that.

Erik: Or... while you are already psychically here... *mentally projecting very nsfw ideas of how they could pass the time*

Both of them show up to the fight with absolutely no effort put into their respective plans whatsoever, forcing the rest of the X-Men and Brotherhood to pick up the slack. Both of them claim this is them trusting their teams. It's not; they just got distracted with each other.

I would argue Miss Piggy would absolutely go to the coronation. She likes an excuse to dress up. But she would also dropkick the new king.

monarchist SCUM!

There are a lot of disadvantages to working at a place that has the news on all day every day. However, I have not learned about a major world event through that one Supernatural meme since I started working there, so this is probably a net win.
