My Favorite Movie of the Summer, Plot not Porn

My favorite movie of the summer this year was "Captain America." I almost never go to watch anything that comes out in theaters anymore, because the culture of mainstrean America is typically tacky at best, and totally classless at worst. However, when "Captain America" started production I was very excited. My thoughts were "finally something I will go see." The main character, Captain America is a Marvel comic book character. I really like the character because he starts out as this really physically weak person with a very strong moral character and by then end of the story, he becomes  everything he ever wanted to be physically but still manages to keep his moral fiber. I think our culture is really struggling in the area of moral integrity and thoughts that actually matter. We live in a day where classless flicks like "Friends with Benefits" are actually considered good and worth watching. The name along evokes thoughts of immorality , women with daddy issues, and boys who never learned to be men. The movie "Thor," who conveniently is also based on a Marvel comic character came out this summer. I look forward to seeing more of these types of films come out, and less of glorified soft porn flicks. Somewhere along the line our society swapped their brains for their misguided libidos. Marvel Comics to the rescue!
