    The Captain Americas. They’re so generically tropey.

    I also hope Sony isn’t offended that I wasn’t a fan of the Spiderman movie I happened to be an extra in. Best eighty bucks ever earned though, I just had to walk down the street doing my thing. Even did an intentional “accidental cosplay” for all who notice.

      I thought the second one was great for exactly the reason that they subverted the generic trope of good guy, bland. Then they found success with that and just repeated it ad nauseam.

      Fun fact: for non-Americans, who are most of the world and the biggest contributors to box office take for MCU films, this character and premise is just goofy. The films are fun to watch in a campy sort of way, but I was surprised to hear Americans talk about them as a serious spy thriller series

      I do love Chris Evans as Captain America though. His expression of slight disapproval throughout the films is fantastic.
