This article analyzes the ideological representations in the discourse of contemporary superhero films. In recent years, there has been a tendency in the genre: The characters have become more self-conscious of their roles, even questioning the ‘greater good’ that they are trying to achieve. Thus, the ideological representations of two recent superhero films are studied. For the corpus of analysis, Iron Man (2008) and Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) would be selected to be examined based on a Critical Discourse Analysis approach, and using two categories: plot and characters (the second with two subcategories: biographic origin and objectives). The main results point out political contradictions at the discursive level and suggest a relation with current political issues of the contemporary capitalism. This work discusses how a text unfolds an ideology harbored in the meanings and values of an American-based production and political culture.

蒙面思想家?当代超级英雄电影中的政治与意识形态

本文分析了当代超级英雄电影话语中的意识形态表征。近年来,这种类型出现了一种趋势:角色变得更加自觉地意识到自己的角色,甚至质疑他们试图达到的“更大的好处”。因此,研究了两部最近的超级英雄电影的意识形态表现形式。对于分析的语料库,将选择“钢铁侠”(2008)和“美国队长:寒冬士兵”(2014),以基于批评性话语分析方法,并使用两个类别:情节和角色(第二个具有两个子类别)进行检查:传记的起源和目标)。主要结果指出了话语层面的政治矛盾,并暗示了与当代资本主义当前政治问题的关系。
