New Captain America opens. Prepare for RW heads to explode.


This is going down the road of The Patriot Act is bad. Mark my words. And the RW ain't going to like it. Make some popcorn and get ready for the show (the movie AND the backlash). What will make it especially fun is that they are going to have to criticize the Captain Frickin' America. The cognitive dissonance will be delicious.

You know, for people who never watch TV or fall in for any popular culture, you DUmmies sure do know a lot about what's on TV and in the movies.  (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024779643)

They do have their movie group, which is hosted by Loconuts, so they have the potential for some really great critiques.

If they could get gNads to cohost that would indeed be a coup (in nadinese, a coop)

yup, trust me

27. "Captain America: ..." Is About Obama's Terror-Suspect Kill List, Say the Film's Directors

There are currently no plans to screen Captain America: The Winter Soldier at the White House, as far as the film's directors have heard. But if it makes it to the White House family theater, President Obama would be watching one big-budget, action-packed, and Scarlett Johansson-starring critique of his controversial terror-suspect "kill list."

This isn't me reading things into a mainstream comic-book movie. It's what the directors themselves will tell you.

" said they wanted to make a political thriller," Joe Russo, who directed the film with his brother Anthony, tells Mother Jones. "So we said if you want to make a political thriller, all the great political thrillers have very current issues in them that reflect the anxiety of the audience...That gives it an immediacy, it makes it relevant. So and I just looked at the issues that were causing anxiety for us, because we read a lot and are politically inclined. And a lot of that stuff had to do with civil liberties issues, drone strikes, the president's kill list, preemptive technology"—all themes they worked into the film, working closely with screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.

Conservatives aren't exactly nuts about the Patriot Act either, DUmmies...its biggest backers are politicians of BOTH parties in or adjacent to NY or MA so they can wave the bloody shirt, and of course John McCain, who may be a sort of a Republican, but is no kind of Conservative.

The FOX movie critic loved it, gave it 4.5 stars.  Thinks it's the best Marvel movie so far.  Lots of violence, don't take the kids even though it has a PG-13 rating.

26. As far as superheros are concerned, Captain America is pretty crappy.

Super strength and an adamantium shield?

Yawn.


I haven’t read a Captain America comic in years so I don’t know about the current incarnation of the comic book version, but based on the version that was in the comics when I was a kid and young adult only a DUmmie could view Captain America (a proud America who stands for truth and liberty) as pretty crappy.

The only hero who I would think is even less “crappy” than Captain America is Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell) who came to earth as a democrat and then became a republican.

And unless things have changed Captain America's shield is made of vibranium.

     As I understand it, Cap is supposed to be mortal. He has superhuman strength and dexterity, and so on, but is supposed to be a genius-level military strategist, absolutely unflappable and fearless, and is a leader par excellence.

DUmmies don't think things through.

Individuals engaging in heroic actions without government authorization or approval is completely contrary to DUmmy beliefs, because if government didn't do it but an individual did it undermines collectivist ideology. Undermines the stealthily fostered fog of powerlessness their elected officials have gone to such great lengths to inflict on their own constituents.

And an individual named "Captain America" doing something right, proper, principled or ethical?

Well, they just can't have that, and have to point fingers at others.

Massive projection is what it is.

"Captain America", even as a fictitious character, is the antithesis of the statist liberal.

He's also something I can't say because it'll spoil the plot for you but matches what the DUmbasses want to happen here in America.

And to any DUmbasses that might be lurking.....I saw Captain America Winter Soldier and my head did not explode. It might be because I know this is a movie and not real....much like every one of your conversion stories.

And I just can't wait to see how the Dumbasses try to compare TEA partiers and conservatives to the President and those who send Sentinels after muantkind in the new movie X-Men - Days of Future Past.

I saw it as well. Enjoyed it. Anytime I see someone real or fictitious truly love their country and act like it it makes me smile.

Also, "Mayors Against Illegal Mutants" comes to mind.  Remember the line in the first X-men movie spoken by Senator Kelly - "All I see is weapons in our schools".

I am semi into comics, the cartoons more these days than the comics. Last time I saw aquaman, was in "flashpoint paradox", and iirc aquaman had a queen. A beard perhaps...but if not I would expect the DUmmies to be very upset.

Liberals have a habit of thinking about things up to the point where the concept seems to support their point of view and not expanding it any further. I hold out Obamacare as proof. The liked it until the reality of what it actually did set it and now only the hardcore Obamites are still clinging to it.

I'm a big Captain America fan, and adored the 'Winter Soldier' storyline in the comics. The movie for the most part did a great job of incorporating that story to the big screen (As shown by the fact that the comic's writer, Ed Brubaker, gave the script his approval and had a cameo in the movie). I definitely saw it as more of an indictment of the paranoia and mistrust that the Obama administration has caused among fellow Americans than anything else. The fact that this revelation comes from the liberal publication Mother Jones must make it even more painful for the DUmmies. I loved the movie in general, and recommend it to all Cap fans.

SPOILERS!
Another thing to keep in mind about the movie is the sort- of subplot involving Senator Stern. For those unfamiliar with the Marvel movies, Stern is a liberal scumbag senator (His political party is never officially mentioned, but you can practically see the (D) next to his name) played by Garry Shandling. He had previously appeared in 'Iron Man 2,' in which he summons Tony Stark before a Senate hearing and demands that Tony hand over the Iron Man suit to the government, only to have Tony refuse and hilariously humiliate Stern on national television (The Senate hearing scene in that movie remains imo one of the funniest moments in the history of Marvel movies). Anyway, in 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier,' Senator Stern returns, and we learn that he is secretly a member of the terrorist group HYDRA, helping them slowly gain control over America. In the end, Stern is among those exposed when HYDRA's dirty little secrets are made public, and we last see him being confronted by FBI agents, so he'll almost certainly be looking at an indictment and tenure in prison rather than in the Senate.

I seriously doubt that a liberal- themed movie would have portrayed Stern that way.
