We're back at ya with a big ol' batch of Marvel goodness. Just like our earlier homage to Marvel, this gallery is stacked with silly fandom shitposts from Twitter, Tumblr and beyond. Strap yourselves in: it's going to be a very stupid but very fun ride.

While we know there's an entire Thanos Did Nothing Wrong movement, we can't help but feel that the big purple villain deserves very little sympathy. This meme works with this theme. After Thanos is overpowered (briefly) by the Guardians of the Galaxy, Mantis cries out that he is in anguish, and that he mourns. Drax asks her what such a monster could mourn, and memers are now filling in the blanks. You can expect a lot of very specific anime and gaming memes to come out of this one, but we're hoping for some more seriously righteous shitposts.
SPOILER ALERT!
After the insane whirlwind of the latest Marvel installment, most fans are seriously shook and possibly in need of therapy. Here's an assortment of Twitter reactions that anyone who has seen the film will relate to.
Beloved filmmaker Kevin Smith suffered a massive heart attack last night following a stand-up special, and took to Twitter to express his gratitude and relief. The news shocked celebrities and fans alike, most notably Chris Pratt. The sitcom-turned-action star sent Smith his prayers following the near-death experience - but didn't receive the response one would expect.
There's been a huge amount of backlash regarding our nation's use of "thoughts and prayers" in dire situations - especially ones that could have been avoided. Several Twitter users took this opportunity to liken Pratt's "prayers" with those uttered following tragedies such as school shootings. Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn was having none of this - and quickly came to Pratt's defense with a smart and poignant Twitter thread.
Via Cinema Sins
Here's a fun video while you wait for the Friday release of Thor: Ragnarok. Cinema Sins is a site whose mission is to point out everything wrong with the movies we love. Here's their profanity-filled take on the groovy, 80's jam-filled Marvel sequel.
Ever wonder what your favorite superheroes would say to one another in a text thread? Comedians Andrew Ivimey and Diana McCallum have come up with some seriously funny exchanges. Here are some of our favorites - for even more you can visit their site, Texts From Superheroes.
Chris Pratt is a beautiful human being. Everything about him oozes positivity and pure, unadulterated, hilarious class. He's the kinda guy that was made to be a movie star.
But, maybe that's what you get when you're making 20 mil per film and you have personal assistants to take care of all the stupid crap the rest of us have to deal with on a daily basis. Like, maybe we could all be super positive and bubbly if we didn't have to wade through some of this mundane drudgery. We're stuck dealing with all this normal stuff, like this pile of dishes in my sink that won't go away no matter how much I try to pretend it isn't there. Along with things like having to wash my own laundry and make my own food. It's a hard life.
On a totally unrelated note, Anna Faris should give up acting and take up gambling or stock brokering because damn she knows how to make a solid investment.
Anyways, yeah. Chris Pratt is great and he's taken to Instagram again to brighten all of our normal ordinary lives and drop some inspiration on us.
