The Marvel Cinematic Universe was still in its nascent stages and superhero flicks were much more self-contained ventures.
In some ways, the story has aged poorly. There’s an element of male fantasy: a nerdy screw-up engages in a series of battles with fantastical physical prowess to score a hot girl. But it’s easy to see why the film resonated so strongly with young audiences. Inspired by shonen manga, martial arts flicks and 16-bit video games, the film wears its nerdy influences boldly on its sleeve. Edgar Wright – already a master of sight gags after– is clearly having a blast.
