It actually changes, especially with the pop culture is being presented today. 15-20 years ago Iron Man was a third tier character that Avengers Die-hards loved, A few movies later and viola Iron Man, top tier hero.

I also remember a time when every single Marvel book had a Wolverine or Punisher cameo, now not so much.

Anyway......after a few colorful pages (not going to waste my time replying) it is clear that some of you confuse race with nationality. Captain America is an American. James Bond is a Brit. I could care less of the color of their skin as long as they are portrayed by those with a deep understanding of their historical and social background. Plain and simple. Now, I’m moving on.

Good, never cared for his Superman honestly.

Speaking of all the anger expressed, this seems to be a pattern more and more. Why get so angry over fictional characters to the point that you're driving people away from what used to be fun conversations about comic book characters, movies, etc.? Having an opinion is fine, but not an abusive, mean, and derogatory one. It's not only not necessary, it's destructive.

Who gave you the authority to judge other people's comments mean and angry and derogatory? You? I guess it's ok to have an opinion as long as it doesn't violate YOUR idea of how one should express it. I can't stand control freaks. If there's one thing I hate more than anything it is people trying to control my actions or my speech or my thoughts. It's just insulting. Your opinion is fine as long as it isn't micro managing, whiny ,controlling, uptight,complaining etc . It's really undesirable and unnecessary. It's also pointless and makes you sound like an old nag scolding children. Are you an old nag? Are we children?

Wait, what? Are you denying freedom of speech? derogatory and destructive comments are subjective, not objective. If you feel offended, that's your problem.

In order for us to think and express an opinion in this world, we must all risk being offensive. Your comment has insulted my view on this and offended me. Does that mean I wish for you to not say those things ever again? No. Because you have every right to express your opinion. I may not agree with your opinion but I will fight for as long as i can for your right to defend it. I wish you would reciprocate.

I mean if we can't even share an opinion in a virtual world, about something as trivial as a movie casting, without someone feeling personally insulted, then it just proves that freedom of speech is well and truly dead.

Please use the word British. Brit is often used in a derogatory way and so this somewhat offends me, being British myself. Thanks

Yes, yes it did. Lolz

Didn’t mean to offend you, Samhain81. Here in the States, we use the word Brit when referring to people from Great Britain in an informal way. No derogatory meaning is implied. Same way you refer to us as Yanks without ill intent.
