Or that a pint-sized scientist can transform into a 9 foot tall green monster when he gets really mad. I really don't think they're going to get hung up on Captain America not being dressed in blue fatigues with a white star on them. In fact, they'd likely get more hung up with a perfectly accurate "Ultimate World War II" costume, because that is not the most common portrayal of the character. Let us not forget that the "Ultimate" Captain America is not the mainstream version of the character, and of the two primary "Ultimate" costumes his modern version (which his movie outfit more closely resembles) is closer to his "classic" appearance than his World War II fatigues.


My argument is not and has never been about how ready the viewer is for the most believable character in the Marvel Universe or even that the costume that I prefer is more realistic. And it is. These are all points of interest but not the point I tried to make in my original post, that The costume in my opinion looks like ass!

I think it's retarded that expressing the view that I don't like something leads to all these responses challenging that view. Likes and dislikes are subjective. All the points I've used to inject some basis for not liking it are not the root of my statement, they were just logical responses to the questioning of my opinion. They were meant to further explain my point but in no way necessary for me to justify that I DON"T LIKE IT. I don't care about your dumb ass Marvel Universe logic. None of it has anything to do with what I do and don't like. Or even the points that I was making.

And when trying to introduce these marvelous characters into a movie, it helps to have some solid and realistic references to help ground the story for the viewers. consultants are paid huge sums of money by production houses for just that reason. You should call them up and tell them that their wasting their money.

And this is why people are telling you to "chill out." Nobody's "attacking" you for having an opinion. They're disagreeing with you and expressing that disagreement, and your attempts to portray it as some kind of vendetta against you only serve as a passive-aggressive attempt to suppress THEIR opinions. You have a right to your opinion but guess what? People have just as much of a right to not agree with you, and state why. People understand your opinion just fine, but understanding and agreement are not the same thing.

Welcome to the internet.

Disagreeing with what? That I can have an opinion? I was told to chill out after my first post. The one stating that I thought it looked like ass. You don't disagree with someone by saying chill out. You say well I like it... I think that time after time I have acknowledged others opinions and shown respect for those opinions. I have not once in any of my statements challenged anyones opinions. All I've done is respond to direct questions and backed up my opinion. But why it is that people like you keep saying things like I'm still not seeing what you don't like.

You don't have to see it, you don't have to agree with it. I've explained myself clearly enough.

Welcome to the internet... Thats not patronizing.
