As someone who only got into the Cap fandom because of the movies, I totally get where you're coming from OP.

Liking something when it's unpopular is so very different than when it's popular and mainstream.

Just from my experience, unpopular things often leave you on the defensive, with people insulting your intelligence or your taste constantly. So if you were a fan before it was popular, I do think there's a tendency to see yourself as being a "true" fan rather than a fair weather fan. That's a pretty understandable reaction as far as I'm concerned as long as you're not a dick to other fans.

seconded.

OP

YOU GET ME.

Back during the 90s, when Grim n' Gritty was the style, I would get actually mocked for liking a dorky, outdated, unrealistic character like Cap. So certainly I'd never make fun of someone else for liking a good version of a character I like (I reserve the right to look down on fans of Ultimate Cap) but I occasionally feel like I've paid my fandom dues in a way they haven't. Which is totally unfair, I know, but... yeah.

I'm a sucker for those good, idealistic, kind, does what's right because it's the right thing to do heroes. So I understand how annoying it is when people tell you that good is boring, childish, and like you said, unrealistic.
