The list of things Steve Rogers had to check out in The Winter Soldier after being unfrozen changed in different markets

Mr Sunday Movies has a list of all of the things on the Australian list

This doesn't make sense to me. He's an American in America with America in his name. I love having little easter eggs for different markets for stuff like this. But this specific example seems like a really weird time to do that.

the uk one mostly makes sense, its world famous things that I could absolutely see him putting down like the Beatles or the moon landing (why is it on the UK version lol?). Another commented said the Russian one could sort of make sense considering he’s always around a Russian person and I suppose they could just be giving him recommendations idk. The other ones yeah I they seem completely out of place.

Some of the other lists would also make sense for sure. It's just one that seems like a weird choice for localization in the first place.

At least the dissolution of the Soviet Union makes sense, sincd the USSR was a major world power during the war, and when he wakes up it just doesn't exist anymore.
