Line 17:
* [[Fan Dumb]]:
** Some fans complained about Black Widow's lack of a Russian accent. {{spoiler|She identifies herself as Russian in the film but talks about having been raised in the United States and then spending a lot of time abroad.}} Additionally, she's an international spy who has mastered multiple languages. So obviously, she can speak with a perfect accent. If she couldn't, she wouldn't be very good at her job. The comic character has never been described as having a Russian accent and in fact, has passed herself off as an American citizen more than once so it is safe to say that the original version speaks English with a US accent.
** Some fans were enraged at Cap's line about Thor ("There's only one God, ma'am, and I'm pretty sure He doesn't dress like that"), claiming that Joss Whedon was having a case of religious [[Writer on Board]]. Putting aside the fact that Cap has always been [https://web.archive.org/web/20131028171852/http://www.adherents.com/lit/comics/CaptainAmerica.html a deeply religious Christian] (and therefore such a line isn't out of character for him), Joss Whedon himself is a staunch humanist who once derisively referred to the Abrahamic God as "the sky bully."
* [[Fan Nickname]]:
** "Thorbuster" for Coulson's unnamed [[BFG]]<ref>The name came from an Iron Man suit Tony designed based on Norse weaponry in case he had to take on the pantheon.</ref>
