Captain America dialogue analysis, transcript and audio file for Captain America (2011)

[grey-bard.livejournal.com]

Because I love Steve Rogers very, very much, because I'm a dialogue obsessive and because I found him frustratingly hard to write, last year, after Captain America: The First Avenger came out, I made an audio dialogue file of all his most important lines.

Analyzed and linked here are Steve's most important lines of dialogue from Captain America: The First Avenger, as an aid to writers who want to write Movieverse Steve*. At less than 10% of the runtime of the movie, this counts as fair use for educational purposes.
This post was created with the transcription aid of yunafire.

Analysis:

Because Steve Rogers, even before the serum, never hesitates to tell anyone what he thinks, it's easy to miss the fact that he doesn't actually talk very much. He always makes his opinions known and he's happy to talk with friends, but he doesn't need as many words to do it. Captain America has fewer lines in his own movie than Black Widow has in The Avengers.

Because of this, and because it shows him in a wider variety of moods and contexts than The Avengers, I've decided to transcribe and analyze his dialogue in Captain America: The First Avenger instead of The Avengers.

Steve tends to speak in short, slightly choppy phrases and sentences, and is prone to dropping unnecessary words, particularly at the beginning of sentences. (Not always, but generally.) See: "You start running, they'll never let you stop. You stand up, push back. Can't say no forever, right?" and "Got hit, couldn't shake it." Much of the humor and emotional content of his speech is carried entirely by tone of voice, which, while not wildly dramatic, is extremely expressive. His joking tone is wry when he's feeling down, sly when he isn't and usually self-deprecating either way.

More analysis, a dialogue transcript and accompanying audio file here.

Independence Day 1/1

Title: Independence Day
Author: kroki_refur
Universe: Movies
Beta: None
Rating: PG-13
Length: 3,500 words
Warnings: Unabashed fluff.
Spoilers: Vague spoilers for the Avengers movie and Iron Man 2.
Pairings/characters: Gen (Steve & Tony friendship). Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner, Natasha Romanova, Thor, Clint Barton, Pepper Potts.
Notes: Birthday fic for my dear friend estei, who is Tony-Stark-like in her inability to take no for an answer (and her penchant for poking people).

Summary: Really, though, is it plausible at all that the man who would later become Captain America was born on the fourth of July?

It's possible, Tony decides, that Captain America has more than one birthday.

Patiently, 5/?

[et2brute.livejournal.com]

Title:  Patiently, chapter 5
Rating:  R for chapter 5, NC-17 for the series
Notes:  Part III of the Stone series.
Warnings: adultery, some self-harm that could be looked at as antiheroism or attempted suicide, take your pick.
Summary:  Steve has a thing for Tony, ever since screwing him into a mattress two months ago. The problem is that Tony is marrying Pepper. The other problem is that Steve is unhappy in the incomprehensible present, overwhelmed, and growing steadily more depressed. To top things off, Thor is back on Earth - and he's brought his brother with him.

( In which Steve battles the depression, tries to do the right thing, and suffers in silence. )

The rest of the series, for your convenience:

Stone - Ao3

A collection of stories loosely settled around Loki joining the Avengers and redeeming himself.
