    I wondered the same thing. I just chalked it up to the Red Skull not being as notorious in the MCU as he is in 616, seeing as how in the MCU he disappeared in 1945 and was never seen again. Add in...

    Bad writing by the Ant Man & Wasp team. It would have made much more sense for Janet to have only aged a day or so. As I watched AM & W, I kept wondering how Janet hadn't long since starved to...

    You're making a distinction without a difference. We're describing the same growth. I think that growth makes him a better leader in Infinity War than he was in AoU. If he was not quite worthy in...

    While I think self-sacrifice is part of worthiness, I don't think it's all of it. Leadership is also part of it, given Odin's speech. While Cap was always a leader, I think his leadership skills...

    Even if we're not considering the comics, I'd say my position is supported by discussions in Thor and AoU, as well as by Thor's reactions in AoU and Endgame.

    It is a test of morality- Asgardian morality. Only a worthy warrior by Asgardian moral standards is fit to lift it. Remember, Cap is a soldier, a warrior who has killed people in battle when...

    That was a plot point in Endgame. Even Thor questioned whether he was still worthy, which is why he was relieved when Mjonir returned to him in Asgard. I guess worthiness isn't reduced by...

    That's why I interpret Cap's worthyness in this movie as the result of Cap's character growth. He was nearly worthy in Age of Ultron, but the independence he showed from Civil War onwards, and the...

    I thought that was the single best moment of the film. I don't understand why you thought it was out of place or awkward. Cap tried grabbing it in a moment of desperation, and he was able to lift...

    I thought he was supposed to born even earlier than that given the general 1970s soundtrack and aesthetic of the GoTG franchise. But you can come up with a handwavey type explanation- maybe...
