FANMADE: CAPTAIN AMERICA: 80s Action Hero

Ever wondered what it'd be like if Captain America was an 80s action hero? If you love Snake Plissken, Terminator, Robocop, and other forms of 80s "exploitation," (either throwback or authentic period piece) you might just get a kick out of it.

The edit comes from the YouTube channel, ChiefBrodyRules, an apparent lover of all things 80s and exploitation styled cinema. Being a fan of older movies myself, I lost it less than 30 seconds into the trailer. 



"The year is 2007. Crime is at an all time high and the law has a plan to wipe it out! CAPTAIN AMERICA (Chris Evans), a Vietnam vet who was given super strength by a military scientist, Abraham Erskine (Cillian Murphy) is now America's new crime fighter. When he refuses to kill an innocent Senator he is back stabbed by the very people who made him! He's out for revenge. If you're going to make enemies, you better make sure it's not America!"


Did you enjoy the edit? Recognize any of the footage or music? Or is the whole 80s throwback lost on you? Leave your thoughts in the comments below and let us know.

"The thing I was surprised about in response to Superman was how everyone clings to the Christopher Reeve version of Superman, you know? How tightly they cling to those ideas, not really the comic book version, but more the movie version… if you really analyze the comic book version of Superman, he’s killed, he’s done all the things - I guess the rules that people associate with Superman in the movie world are not the rules that really apply to him in the comic book world, because those rules are different. It’s just funny to see people really taking it personally… because I made him real, you know, I made him feel, or made consequences [in] the world. I really wanted to show the violence is real, people get killed or get hurt, and it’s not fun or funny. And I guess for me, it was like I wanted a hero in Superman that was a real hero and sort of reflected the world we live in now…"

But if it's a shitty movie, you'll never hear the end of it from me...

Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, and 24 are God.
