Yet somehow Marvel has turned his cinematic character into this amazing, deep, engaging character who even us non-Americans love (seriously Winter Soldier has got to be one of my favourite movies, period).

Superman is the ultimate boy scout, and should have been given similar treatment. Instead we have this...well I don't even know what we have. A piece of plywood. An all-worldly powerful piece of plywood.
I totally agree with Captain America, I have never been a fan of him in the comics. Not the type of character I'm into but the way the movies have portrayed him have given a new life to the character and I would say some of my favorites of the Marvel movies have been the Captain America ones.
