Everyone might be choosing sides when it comes to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but Captain America: Civil War star Paul Rudd has other things in mind. The Ant-Man actor was recently a guest on The Late Late Show with James Corden, where he admitted he was thrilled to have been able to hold Captain America’s shield for a few minutes!
Corden had initially asked Rudd who he was rooting for in Batman v Superman, but instead of choosing either the Dark Knight or the Man of Steel, the actor simply stated that he was “in a different family.” Although the host was not able to get a better response from Rudd, his other guest Diane Lane, who plays Clark Kent’s mother in BvS, confirmed she is Team Superman all the way.
Rudd might not be taking sides when it comes to the DC film, but he is clearly on Team Captain America. The actor shared that he was lucky enough to have the chance to hold the First Avenger’s shield, which usually gets handed off to the “props guy.”

All superheroes have weaknesses. Whether it’s physically or mentally, they all have weaknesses that they struggle with that try to prevent them from being the best that they can be. Captain America and Beowulf share a similar weakness of the ability to get mortally wounded, due to the fact that they are both regular human beings. The advantage of Captain America though is that, due to the soldier serum, Captain America’s age is slowed down (Frost). This is so important because this was a major factor in why Beowulf died. Because Beowulf was growing old, he wasn’t as strong as he used to be. Therefore he wasn’t strong enough to fight the dragon (Beowulf 800-805). Unlike Beowulf, Captain America’s slow aging advantage will allow him to have strength and abilities that will allow him to fight for a long time.
Half of the person we become is an impression of the ones we admire. Growing up in the United States every child has someone they look up to.

This is what makes Captain America different from other
The film Captain America is a classic piece of American cinema that was intended to ignite patriotism in the hearts of all who view it. To accomplish this task the director had to make connections between the audience and the hero. The film uses pathos ethos and logos to make this necessary connection. Through these aspects the director is able to show the true character of Captain America and also successfully develop what kind of character he is. Although pa-thos ethos and logos all play a role in the development of the film without an emotional con-nection through pathos the other two would not be nearly as effective.
