"Even before casting was announced or a director was chosen, there was audible questioning as to how one would bring the Marvel character Captain America to the big screen. From the character’s goofy origins as a propaganda figure during World War II to selling the patriotism internationally, there were more than a few roadblocks (and reflections back on the movie from 1990 didn’t help either). Flash forward to last weekend when Captain America: The First Avenger not only took the top spot at the box office away from Harry Potter, but earned great praise from critics, many of whom called the movie Marvel’s best since Iron Man in 2008. One of the biggest reasons for the film’s success was the great script by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely."
