No joke they watched like 30 minutes of the movie thinking it was The Avengers, after going in my bedroom and unpausing my laptop.

I’m not sure either film is suitable for a toddler, but that is pretty funny.

Ok, why did they think it was The Avengers?

I had it paused on a part where “Captain America” was on his bike in his full get up.(he is never named that in the movie) I’m guessing they thought he really was Captain America.

I was like guys you’re not supposed to be in here and that is NOT Avengers, I don’t know why I found it so funny.

No, right when they’re being locked up (and so cue Jack Nicholson), Dennis Hopper loudly proclaims it: _“Parading without a permit? You gotta be kidding me! I mean, do you know who this is, man? This is Captain America! I’m Billy!”_
