The Pentagon: The Avengers is unrealistic

The Pentagon did not give support to The Avengers movie. Not because Super Hero's do not exist. But because the organisation S.H.I.E.L.D. is to unrealistic.

“We couldn’t reconcile the unreality of this international organization and our place in it,” Phil Strub, the Defense Department’s Hollywood liaison, tells Danger Room. “To whom did S.H.I.E.L.D. answer? Did we work for S.H.I.E.L.D.? We hit that roadblock and decided we couldn’t do anything” with the film.
