Captain America: Civil War Re-enactors (2016)
Captain America: Civil War Re-enactors (2016)
Overview
A 13-minute mockumentary about two pool store employees, Chad and Angus, who cosplay as Captain America and Iron Man and argue over the finer points of Marvel battle canon. The comedic premise is deliberately small and geeky, with no political agenda on display. The label Leans Traditional reflects a narrow set of signals: a cast of white male leads, no DEI-driven casting choices, and an absence of LGBTQ, trans, or progressive social themes. The film is apolitical by design, focused on the absurdity of grown men treating superhero fiction with the gravity of actual history. Its mildness on every axis is what earns the mild label.
Starring Cast
Tony Hale • Adam Pally • M. Emmet Walsh
