I’m sorry but once Peggy was so established in the MCU, Sharon should never have left the comics. Especially if all she was going to be was a love interest. Using Sharon to dispel any question of Steve’s sexuality made Steve and Sharon look bad. And the entire thing undermined and was disrespectful to Peggy. Peggy and Steve had the best romance in the MCU. If Sharon needed to appear, it should have been as a friend and nothing more. Regardless of comic canon.

He is so badass in this. Love this guy.

STOP Slandering Steve Rogers

#1: He was NEVER “willing to burn the world down/ let the world burn for Bucky Barnes.”

Show me one place when that was ever canon.

In CA:TFA - he wanted to wipe out Hydra after Bucky fell from the train. Sure, good for him, Hydra was unspeakably evil organization. What good person didn’t want to wipe out Hydra??

In CA:TWS Steve was prepared to do whatever it took to stop the launch of those helicarriers - up to and including BREAKING Bucky’s arm. He didn’t stop fighting Bucky until everyone but him (Steve) was safe.

In CA:CW he objected to and refused to sign the Accords BEFORE Bucky was even mentioned. It had NOTHING to do with Bucky. Steve was going to bring Bucky in when he thought he might have had something to do with the bombing. He refused to sign the Accords even when Bucky’s welfare was dangled in front of him. Steve only ran off with Bucky when it became clear there was no getting a fair shake from Ross et al. He gave up the shield for himself - okay, his motive may be open to interpretation but it’s certainly not equivalent to letting the rest of the world burn.

In the Prelude to Infinity War comics, while Bucky’s healing in Wakanda Steve and Sam and Nat are busy hunting down rogue Chitauri weapons - sure seems like he’s not willing to let the world burn down if he can help it.

#2: Someone who would be “willing to let the would burn” for their loved one is not a hero, they’re not even a good person; that is supervillain territory. That is Kingpin/Wilson Fisk or Darth Vader - not Captain America.

And lastly thinking that being willing to sacrifice everything in the world is a sign of love is seriously effed up. Really - if you think that would be somehow romantic or admirable - get help.

To all Doctor Strange and MCU haters.

You should get a life. Boycotting a film means ignoring it. Please do. Nobody cares. Stop imposing your opinion on everyone else. We are not going to apologise for watching it. Thank you.

One of the things I love about Steve Rogers is that he goes against the archetype of good/optimistic characters only being – and deriving their goodness/optimism from being – innocent and naïve.

Steve isn’t naïve. Steve grew up in hardship. In the comics, he was abused and watched his mother be beaten by his father. In the movies, he had no father, but was violently bullied and dirt poor. Steve grew up in the school of hard knocks, in the middle of the Depression; any naïveté about how cruel the world could be got beaten out of him as a child.

And then, Steve signed up to go to war. He fought on the front lines of WWII, and witnessed untold violence. Some comics and cartoons show him helping to free concentration camps. And he fought – Steve never had the luxury, as Cap, of having a “no killing” rule like Superman. He’s never relished taking lives, but he’s done it when necessary. Steve is no unsullied innocent.

From all this hardship, all this violence, Steve could easily be a character who has a grim, cynical outlook on the world. He’s seen and experienced the absolute worst of humanity; he’s borne witness to genocide, after all, and horrors of war. And usually, the characters who have endured brutality are the ones who are the bitter anti-heroes, or dark and angsty heroes – the Batmans and Daredevils, the Wolverines and Punishers. Meanwhile the hopeful, optimistic heroes are often the ones who have had warm and loving homes, and who haven’t been broken yet by the world.

But Steve, despite everything, stays hopeful. Steve believes in the best of humanity, in spite of having seen it at its worst. Steve believes in the importance of Good, because he has looked deep into the heart of Evil. 

Steve has suffered all his life, but he refuses to let the world break him. 

That refusal, that strength of outlook and principle, and that subversion of archetype with a rejection of the increasingly popular grimdark hero narrative, are all reasons I love Captain America, and find Steve Rogers a truly interesting and inspiring hero.
