      A day will come, when you are vulnerable, and broken, and in need of support, and *everyone* you can reach out to is a fucking hardass who takes pride in how much of a callous, pigheaded piece of shit they are. Because those are your people. Those are the clan you've joined

      And this world doesn't give you mulligans. Not really. You can reject those people, yeah. But you can't exchange them for anyone else. The window will have closed. You can have *these* fascist motherfuckers, or you can live a life of noble asceticism in the gutters of society.

      You know how superheroes, like Green Lantern are War Machine are ex-military? I always thought it would be interesting to have a military superhero that utterly hates the military that made them.

      The funny thing is Captain Marvel comes very close to straight up having this message but it gets kind of buried in the Girl Power thing it's mixed up with and disguised as

      Like look everyone brings up that final scene with Jude Law trying to berate her and get his hooks back into her and she just shuts him up by blasting him And they say it's about sexism, and patriarchy, and mansplaining And sure, it's about those things, but not ONLY those

      Like of course these are gendered roles Carol and Yon-Rogg are playing here but they're not *only* gendered It's not just patriarchy, it's *paternalism* It's how men treat women, but also how elders treat juniors, parents treat children, the elite treat the poor

      No, I don't think so, and I think this is a very lazy reading Without defending DoD partnerships with Disney movies as a whole, you have to work really hard to find anything actually pro-Air Force in this movie Like, at all

      I don't think the Air Force actually cares that the message of the movie is ultimately anti-military, but that's because they don't actually generally care ] They're not movie critics The Navy got all excited about Battleship and it was obvious that movie was a laughingstock

      I mean the sad truth is that a movie can be anti military thematically but unless someone looks at the camera and says “the Air Force does war crimes, don’t join up” all those cool shots of planes and pilots hopping out against a sunset still do their job.

      I am fine with saying that what a movie's plot and dialogue and themes say is often very different from what a movie's moment-to-moment imagery says, and that since cinema is a visual medium the latter is often more important But that doesn't negate the former

          Okay, so that's just Truffaut's Maxim -- you can't ever really make an antiwar movie because war looks inherently cool There are people who unironically stan the Mobile Infantry in Verhoeven's Starship Troopers and wish they could join it, the satire is totally lost on them

          Oh I agree, I just think the military agrees to these movies because they know their recruits come from the segment of the audience who watches it and goes “what a cool plane!” Their disinterest is pragmatic because anything less than overt condemnation doesn’t hurt the numbers.
