Well, there are certainly people who don't like Ult Steve, and they are vocal, but he doesn't sell badly, and he certainly has fans.

He specifies Brubaker's run, which is largely focused on Bucky. While I don't think Cap's Biggest Fan should make a movie about him, I think creators should like and understand the characters they work with. He doesn't like Cap, he doesn't like his costume, he doesn't like his origin.

Honestly, fuck fanservice. I have an internet connection. I can see all the boobs I want at the click of a mouse. I can buy a magazine. I do not need my narratives mutilated and derailed so some jiggling tits can be crudely shoehorned into the movie. The story works well with fanservice? Fine! Tony has dancing girls, Mystique is arrogantly naked. Enhances the mood of the story. But fanservice for the sake of it just leads to "Oh, Jessica Alba's clothes have fallen off again. It wasn't that funny the first time. Now can we get back to the story? I didn't realise I was watching Carry On Superheroing."
