TWS bites:
Chris Evans explained how Captain America feels in the modern world:
He’s getting there. It’s not so much about his shock with tech — ooh, internet! It’s more about the societal differences. He’s gone from the ’40s to today; he comes from a world where people were a little more trusting, the threats not as deep. Now, it’s harder to tell who’s right and wrong. Actions you take to protect people from threats could compromise liberties and privacy. That’s tough for Steve to swallow.
We know there’s some tension, then, between Rogers and the bosses at SHIELD. Samuel L. Jackson described Nick Fury’s view of Cap and Black Widow:
They’re co-workers, subordinates in a sense, instruments of justice… tools. They’re people that he cares about. He has a very different relationship with everybody. He and steve have a vocabulary, because they’re both warriors. But Rogers has this black and white thing with respect to enemies. Now, some enemies may be comrades. He doesn’t know how that works. But that’s what SHIELD and Natasha live in. Almost everything that comes out of Nick Fury’s mouth is a lie in some sense. He has to ask, is he even lying to himself, too? He has a very good idea of what’s going on but his paranoia keeps him from believing some of it.
Still, Anthony Mackie had probably the best lines of the panel. “I have wings and guns. That’s all you need, right? When you go to the grocery store, isn’t that what you want? Wings and guns? That’s what I got!”
