The Marvel movies are all sort of generized and dull, though. Why is the Red Skull a threat when the Howling Commandos can zipline directly into his office? Why does Cap crash the plane in the end, instead of, y'know, just turning it around? Who cares, it's in the comic books. Tony Stark gets captured in the desert and learns the consequences of his irresponsible weapons manufacturing. In response he totally blows off all his corporate duties and locks himself in the lab to build himself the ultimate weapon that he uses to fly around and have fun. The Marvel studios movies are soulless and pandering and, yes I think, joyless.
