Captain America Kicks Ass to “America Fuck Yeah” (from “Team America: World Police”)
When the comic book character Captain America finally comes to the big screen in 2010, will he be portrayed as a sterling freedom fighter or more naturalistically as neo-con war-machine puppet? Could you imagine if Marvel tried to gear this audience this movie towards young Republicans? Now that all their films are rooted in plausible reality, it’ll be interesting to see how they try and swing this character in a way that doesn’t make him feel like a jingoistic blind foot soldier. Hope you had a happy fourth!
Or he could wind up opposing an overbearing government that encroaches on civil rights like he did in the comics last year before he was killed off.
Just a thought.
