Bartini Beriev VVA-14

megatrip:

so…. I’ve been inundated with messages about my blurry post the other day… Mr. @mattfractionblog made a great comment about it being “Clint Barton’s most dubious costume decision”… I got a good laugh from it… but a lot of people took it a little more seriously and have been messaging me – constantly, wanting to know what the Hawkeye creative team at the time must have been thinking? when was this? where was this?

Uh… This maybe shouldn’t be articulated with my thumbs. It’s hard for me. It’s harder when the art elaborates and elevates the shitbaggedness of the artist. I can’t watch Woody Allen movies anymore. Young girls are to woody Allen films what feet are to Tarantino films. The latter is a fetishistic flourish, the former a cr...

HL: (gruff but endearing voice) I'm Nick Fury.
