The show’s argument, on the other hand, is that John didn’t really become a bad Captain America until he killed a man with the shield in broad daylight.

I think we also need to come to grips with the idea that Steve Rogers is borderline unrealistic. Maybe he’s the one guy in 1940s Brooklyn who doesn’t see race or gender, but he adapts awfully quickly to a world where Fury is his superior officer.

And he goes from either being a virgin (or getting pity sex from one of…

From what I recall, there was a significant chunk of Cap’s “re-assimilation into society” story cut out of the first Avengers movie. I think he was supposed to be Whedon’s audience POV character, and those scenes were in support of that.

Any Dragon Prince watchers in the house? That was a great series even with the weird animation. Netflix has some real quality S&S offerings.

You either die a DC hero, or live long enough to play the villain in a Marvel movie. 

What’s funny is I’m assuming the worst and yet he’ll somehow still manage to slide in under the bar.

Plus a bit of his own Aliens (there was an evil corporate guy in Avatar, although nowhere as memorable as Paul Reiser’s Burke).

Yeah, it’s Dances with Wolves just worse, because 20 years down the line people were questioning the “white guy goes native and becomes the indigenous people’s greatest hero” narrative a lot more than they did in 1990, and that’s only gotten stronger since. Also, while both Cameron and Costner were coming from a place…

On one hand I get why this is wrong and understand that some central Asian people really dislike the character

AGREED!

Hey, whatever happened to not becoming outraged over what are certainly unintentional slights?

I understand why he would feel that way and part of me finds it commendable, but the other part of me thinks he shouldn’t have to apologize for other people’s racism. Because let’s be real, those people are gonna be racist regardless. They’ll find something else to use. Hell, I’ve seen idiots use phrases from Blazing…

The initial announcements did say it was supposed to be canonical to the DCEU and the set design was quite obviously taken from Man of Steel.

Ok what am I missing here? We have Superman, a character that is extremely white, with extremely white biological parents. Why then is it shocking to think that his grandparents would also be white? I wouldn’t expect a black actor to play the grandpa of a non-mixed white character anymore than I would expect a white…
