Sameer and The Chief quickly volunteer as their time with Diana have inspired them to fight for a cause. Charlie, however, hesitates. You see Charlie can’t shoot anymore. His PTSD is too overwhelming and he’s afraid he’s become useless. “Maybe you’ll be better without me,” he says, pained by the idea that he’s too “broken” to help.“But who will sing to us, Charlie?” Diana asks. It’s a simple question that brings a smile to Charlie’s face, a song in his heart, and the group continues on their way.
On the surface, it’s a tender moment. One that shows just how close this group has become since dropping onto the front lines of World War One. But with one simple line, Wonder Woman has redefined what it is to be a man.
Patty Jenkins’s Diana, doesn’t ask Charlie to continue to fight for her. She doesn’t need him to kill for her. She doesn’t try to encourage him or make him feel guilty for not being able to kill anymore, or turn him away because he’s can’t. She simply asks him to do what he can. She simply asks him to sing, and tells us that we don’t need to fight to be strong enough to stand beside Wonder Woman. – “But who will sing to us, Charlie?” The Defining Power of Wonder Woman
That’s sweet. And I mean. He can’t throw a tank, she doesn’t really need him for his strength.

If Tumblr is agonizingly slow in your browser, and if you use an ad-blocker, enter that element into the list of things blocked. It turns out that Tumblr is constantly animating the Tumblr logo, even if it’s not on-screen, and it uses up cycles.
I wish I could credit the author of this, but it scrolled off my dash while I was busy editing my ad-blocker. Boooooo.

interacting with omgcp fandom while not having any particular feelings towards kent parson one way or another is…interesting
Reblog if you have used dude as a non gender specific term.
where I grew up in California not only is “dude” generally non-gender-specific, half of the time it doesn’t even refer to a person at all.
I said it to a faucet today.
A customer once came to me to order a sandwich and said “I want this dude”
Dude is more than a word, it’s an emotion.
dude is a way of life
If Marvel is humans becoming gods, DC is gods becoming human. And this is that done right. This reminded me of what’s wonderful about DC and why its characters are still timeless. When done correctly, it blends myth with reality, the ordinary with the extraordinary, mortal with immortal. It’s the closest we have to current Greek mythology. It’s honest. It’s powerful. It lasts forever. This is the movie that made me remember why I love DC in the first place.
This is honestly the most genuinely happy I think I’ve ever seen the Nostalgia Critic 😀
Even a man who basically lives on a diet of rage and snark thinks that Wonder Woman is a FRICKING AMAZING MOVIE
someone who lived in my apartment before me wrote a quote under the lampshade above the bed and it says “Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true.” and it makes me emotional every time i read it because it’s me as hell
the level of pettiness, stubbornness and thriftiness
The video is just called “Polishing a Rusty Knife” as if watching this guy’s knife wizardry didn’t just clear my pores, cure my anxiety, and stock my fridge full of vegetarian sushi.
i’m the cat
Pretty much. ♥︎
What is a fandom?
Imagine that girl in elementary school that never stopped talking about horses in a class with 1700 other girls who are obsessed with horses in a class about horses
#get you a girl who can do both
