So I was watching the Avengers and for some reason I noticed Steve’s gym shoes. First time I have noticed his gym shoes, and this is like my 100th time watching the movie. They look like Chuck Taylor All-Star. So I did some google-ing. Apparently, All-Stars were created in 1917. During WWII, American soldiers wore white high-top chucks when training. Chuck Taylor also served in the Air Force. Man, Joss Whedon is brilliant! 

Actually, his costumer is probably the one who did all that research.

^^ there’s a shit ton of people who put a fuckload of work into a movie and just a handful who get recognized for it.

 Agent Coulson is down

#okay but why does nOBODY EVER TALK ABOUT THE GENERATION GAP #come on guys this is the MOST INTERESTING THING #look if Steve had lived through the war he would have been part of that post-wwii generation #imagine Steve in the 60S GUYS #you think he would have put up with those young folks disrespecting those soldiers and his country by protesting the war? HECK NO #remember that scene at the beginning of ca:tfa where he tells off that guy in the movie theater? THAT WOULD BE STEVE IN THE 60S #and Tony is in his 40s!! Tony is gen x! Tony is NOT EVEN A BOOMER #Tony is TOO YOUNG TO BE A BABY BOOMER Tony is YOUNGER THAN OUR PARENTS #Tony doesn’t know what it’s like to live in a country that’s in total war! Tony doesn’t know what it’s like for loyalty to your country t… #to be something that almost everyone has! #look guys we make fun of America ALL THE TIME we mock patriotism and nationalism and the usa CON STANT LY #when Steve hears the word soldier he equates it with the word hero #and when Tony hears the word soldier he hears an insult. #because Steve’s war is wwii #and Tony’s wars are vietnam and Iraq and Afghanistan and Tony knows that when America fights wars it is not necessarily the good guy! #and Steve cannot even BEGIN to comprehend that #Steve barely knows what WATERGATE is for god’s sake steve probably still trusts the government #steve doesn’t know about JFK conspiracy theories! Steve doesn’t know about the Patriot Act #(and let me remind you that in 616 canon steve actually fought a war to bring down the expy!patriot act) #god america has grown up SO MUCH since Steve’s day #Americans are sarcastic and cynical and plugged into the media 24/7 #Americans depricate themselves constantly americans hate america more than anybody else does #Pearl Harbor turned America into a unified force for change in the world; 9/11 turned America into something paranoid and bitter #Steve no longer represents America #he represents what America wishes it had ever been #and Tony? Tony understands the USA a whole lot better than Steve does and he knows it and Steve never will #and Tony understands how war can destroy and Steve only understands how it can save #holy christ why would you write porn when you could write about that

I don’t necessarily think that Tony automatically associates the word ‘soldier’ as an insult.  I mean, I know it wasn’t technically in the movie, but during the screen tests for Iron Man, RDJ did a run through of a scene where Tony sits down and talks with the soldiers, jokes with them, and commends them for what they’re doing.  When Tony gets back from Afghanistan, he sits down in front of a crowd of press reporters and talks about how he saw innocent people, soldiers, die before his own eyes.  Tony doesn’t associate the word ‘soldier’ to something insulting.  Tony reacts the way he does in this scene because soldiers die.  And that is something Tony never wanted to experience again.  But with Steve’s association of Coulson with ‘soldier’, Tony just snaps back: “we are not soldiers”.  Because Coulson is dead and Tony refuses to accept the prospect that anyone else might die.  Soldiers die.

And who else could understand that concept better than Steve?  Steve, who’s seen hundreds of people, soldiers and civilians, die before his own eyes - one of them, or so he believes, having been his best friend.  Steve may follow through and symbolize the value that war only brings peace, but he knows better than that.  The difference is that he doesn’t outwardly display his cynicism because Captain America is about keeping up that morale, pushing forward, never backing down, holding onto that hope.  And we see that Steve doesn’t fully trust the government, or SHIELD, simply due to the fact that Steve breaks into a SHIELD weaponry storage unit because Tony says something’s up;if he truly trusted the government/SHIELD, he wouldn’t have paid any mind to anything Tony or Bruce had to say.  And we’ve seen in the comics (and in the MCU in his little deleted scene) the bitterness and sadness of the reality of that, of war and mistrust, to which he more than acknowledges.

And that’s why this scene is so pivotal.

Guys, seriously, right now, Steve Rogers is grinning and stretching and getting up from the couch and looking over at the coffee maker and thinking he should make himself a cup, so that he can stay up for the Obama victory speech because hey, there is something for this watching campaigns on TV and getting the results back.
