I honestly disagree with Hawkeye not being memorable or good character in the MCU. Yeah in Avengers he’s brainwashed for 90% of the film but Age of Ultron (The movie everyone hates for some reason) was where he really shined. He’s a kind family man with the most to lose out of all the Avengers if he were to fail, A generally good friend to Nat, & served as a decent father figure for Wanda later down in Civil War. I honestly prefer that over the moronic bro the comics recently portray him as.

I guess part of it is that he didn’t leave much of an impression in the first Avengers, and then Age of Ultron where he did shine is…not great (which don’t get me wrong, I do like the movie, it just leaves a lot to be desired). And then in Civil War the damage has more or less been done by then.

Don’t get me wrong, I like MCU Hawkeye. I like him a lot even. It’s just that he feels kind of superfluous.
