10 Amazing Details You Missed In MCU Movies

4. The Paprikash Recipe - Captain America: Civil War

When you're watching a movie and a quick shot of a newspaper pops up, 9 times out of 10 the entirety of that paper is comprised of repeated blocks of text, or text that makes no sense.

There are other small details that get the same blasé treatment, too. Mugs will usually contain no liquid, magazines will be written in gibberish, and books sometimes contain no text - with just a cover being shown to the camera.

These details don't really matter, but it can take you out of the movie if you spot one of them, and it's refreshing when you learn that the filmmakers went the extra mile to make every tiny part of a scene look authentic.

This definitely applies to Captain America: Civil War's kitchen scene, which finds Vision attempting to cook a tasty chicken meal.

The shot of the recipe he's using could have been hastily typed up and thrown together without it making any sense (it is onscreen for mere seconds, after all), but the chicken paprikash he's attempting to whip up is actually a printout of a real-life recipe on Saveur.com, which you can make yourself.

This just makes us want a "Cooking With Vision" MCU One-Shot even more...
