MCU Character Aesthetics

In light of the fun I had creating my last aesthetics post, I thought I'd do a round two, but this time featuring a few of my favorite MCU characters!


Clint Barton || Hawkeye

"Captain, it would be my genuine pleasure." 

skyscrapers | quiet contemplation | flannel shirts | arrows | sassy comments | combat boots | white farmhouse | family bonds | black pavement | devotion | blue eyes | target practice | birds eye views 



Peter Parker || Spiderman
"When you can do the things that I can, but you don't, and then the bad things happen, they happen because of you."


red sneakers | subway station | science notes | bravery | high school hallways | horrible secret keeper | spiderwebs | fire escapes | trying so hard | pullover sweatshirts | softhearted 



Loki || God of Mischief
"We are not doing Get Help."


clouds | evil smile | green leather | a tad dramatic | brother | mischievous | confused loyalties |  tall mountains | black suit | snark | loneliness | grand schemes | satisfied smirks



Natasha Romanof || Black Widow
"See you in a minute."


black leather | smell of gasoline | hand guns | long hallways | dark past | strong friendships |  motorcycles | sacrifice | red hair | hand to hand combat | high heels | loyalty | red brick | highway signs | soft smile

23: An MCU Blogathon || The Tag


*sneaks in very quietly*




Hi guys

Guess who's late for her own blog party...



So sorry 'bout that, but life does indeed happen...

So! My lateness acknowledged, let us get on with the party!

If you've been over to TQ's blog lately, then you know that she and I are hosting a Marvel Cinematic Universe Blogathon for the month of January! 

Now I should preface this by saying that I am not exactly a Marvel aficionado... 

*whispers* i haven't seen at least half of the movies

However! I have immensely enjoyed the movies that I have seen, so when TQ suggested an MCU Blogathon, I jumped on board :D  We would love to have you participate! We're kicking things off with a tag, which you can fill out if you are so inclined, and then you can post whatever Marvel themed posts you would like for the whole month of January! So without further ado, my answers to the tag!

 1. What is Your Favorite Movie?

Avengers: Endgame because WOOOOOOWWW.

I will not deny that at a Certain Part, I was screaming and clapping very loudly in the theater. But then, weren't we all?

It would literally take me too long to talk about all the different reasons this movie is AMAZING, so I'll just leave it at that for now :)

2. What is Your Favorite Stan Lee Cameo?

"Are you Tony Stank?"

"Yes, yep, this is Tony Stank."

3. Who is Your Favorite Character from the Original Six?

Hawkeye aka Clint Barton

Before I had ever seen any Marvel movies, I walked in on my brothers watching the first Avengers, and I saw Clint and my brain said, "That one. I like that one right there." And my love for him has only grown from there :) 

Thig guy is just SUCH A SWEETHEART. He genuinely cares so much about his friends, his family, and even people he doesn't even know (In Age of Ultron, remember the little boy that he was ready to sacrifice himself for!!!) He can hold his own in a fire fight (with a BOW AND ARROW) against weird aliens, robots, etc, and he is just such a GOOD GUY.

ALSO HE IS A MASTER OF SASS.

WHAT IS THERE NOT TO LOVE????

And yet, he is still soo underrated! He deserves allllll the love guysss

4. Who is Your Favorite Sidekick (characters not from the Original Six who don't have their own movie)?

I don't know if she quite counts as a sidekick, but I. LOVE. SHURI.

She is determined, smart, kick-butt, I mean, come on guys, get this girl her own movie!!! 

5. What is the Funniest Moment?

When Quicksilver is being snarky to Clint and says, "Try to keep up old man." and zooms away, followed by Clint aiming at him with his arrow, muttering "Nobody would know. Nobody..." and then sighing and dropping the arrow, picking his way through the debris, muttering to himself. Gotta love the Hawkeye + Quicksilver sassy, snark, relationship. 

(Second place goes to...

"No, DON'T SAY IT"

"On your left.")

6. Who is Your Favorite Villain?


Well OF COURSE, it's Loki. Although I honestly don't even think of him as a villain anymore, cuz he's just a poor, confused cinnamon roll, guys. 

7. What is Your Favorite Power or Technology?

Well it's not exactly a power, but I loooooove that Natasha and Clint are both perfectly capable of keeping up with the guys who DO have powers, and this is just with skills that they learned. Natasha can pretty much take down anyone who has the horrible idea to stand in her way, and Clint over here is just casually jumping off buildings and shooting things without even looking.

(but Spiderman's powers win second place)

8. What is Your Favorite Sequel (no trilogies!)?

Spiderman: Far From Home

THIS MOVIEEEEE. This is the movie where Peter's not just baby spider anymore. He grows up and he learns and he hurts A LOT and HE JUST NEEDS A HUG. 

I just love love LOVE seeing Peter growing into himself, and learning how to get along without Tony, and how to find his own way.

9. What are Your Favorite End Credits? Or End Credit's Scene?

(Why can I suddenly not remember any of them...?)

Well I've always liked the 2nd end credit scene from Spiderman: Homecoming with Captain America.

"And you wonder, why did you wait so long, for something so disappointing?"

haha

UPDATE!!! I just now watched The Avengers for the first time (shocking, I know) AND MY FAVORITE END CREDIT SCENE HAS CHANGED, CUZ THIS MOMENT...

I just lovelovelove seeing the Avengers just chilling as though they didn't just save the universe. Steve is basically asleep, Clint has claimed half of Natasha's chair, and Thor is just eating like his life depends on it. It's just such a great little moment!! 

10. Who is Your Favorite Ship?

PEGGY AND STEVE TILL THE END

I don't CARE if people think she moved on or that they thought it was undoing character development. THE END OF ENDGAME WAS WHAT MY HEART NEEDED.

take that Peggy/Steve haters. 

(second place ties with Ta'challa + Nakia and Peter + MJ)


And that is all my friends!!
