Well, to be technical, the ideal reference system does not have the sun at its center, but the center-of-mass of the solar system. (The two are close enough for non-physicists.)

To be fair, Galilean relativity says that a geocentric model of the solar system is valid.

Interesting to get a commentary like this, at a time when the AV Club is scaling back on reviewing classic series.

I think you are getting your childhood confused with a Twilight Zone episode.

That would actually work for the comic book version.

I see them setting it up for Cap3.
The major drawback is that they are going to the "fake death" well too often. The first two films have multiple characters turn out to not be dead.

Part of the difference is that Cap goes on the PA system, and says that people will need to risk their lives in order to stop a larger tragedy. He includes himself as putting his life on the line. So in this case it is hundreds/thousands dying in an actual battle to stop close to a million dying in an hour (and tens…

When the farmer puts the fox in charge of the hen house, I blame the farmer AND the fox. The Hydra moles get blame, but so do the people that thought it would be good to let them run the show.
