    It is the darkest of all possible humor that Disney is publicly rolling back their DEI initiatives and removing content warnings from older, racially-insensitive work on the same week that they are releasing a new MCU movie with a Black man as Captain America.

    My favourite part of the new Captain America movie is when he tries to extort Wakanda for $500b in Vibranium rights before "ironically" teaming up with Hydra to own the libs.

    You wouldn’t know it but next Friday Marvel releases a movie starring a black Captain America called Brave New World. I’m sure America is just going to have a totally normal one about it and it will barely justify one column inch…

    Im rewatching the first Captain America movie because dammit sometimes you need a story about heroes. In it, the scientist Erskine says, "So many people forget that the first country the Nazis invaded was their own." I mean, dang. That's good writing in any case, but right now? It hits hard.

    Captain America Brave New World is a perfectly serviceable action movie that somehow has exactly nothing to say about the fact that Anthony Mackie as Captain America is fighting the President of the United States in the middle of Washington DC. Forget subtext, there's barely even any text about it.

    I don't know what Sebastian Stan figured out about his look or acting or what but in the first few Captain America movies he's one of the white guys and now he shows up for five minutes in a modern Marvel film and he grabs the camera and feels like just about the most attractive dude in the world.

    Watched CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER today with my daughter and it is still the best of the early MCU films. Superheroes work best when their heroics are met with an equal amount of tragedy. This film knows that, doling out death and desolation every time Cap gains a win.

    Was lucky enough to see a screening of a previously unseen cut of Albert Pyun's CAPTAIN AMERICA (1990) that is *wildly* different from the theatrical release and the DC. This version is less a superhero film, more of a downbeat 70's political paranoia thriller. Like THE PARALLAX VIEW but with Cap
