Well I can imagine in some countries a movie titled "Captain America" would be slightly offputting, which might include Germany(?), so translating the title into the local language does give an opportunity to remove the "America" bit and thus make the title more palatable to the local audience. |
As much as I know Germany is the only country which has First Avenger instead of Captain America in the name (and that is not a translation to our language^^).
Winter soldier was also called different here. It was called "The Return of the First Avenger".
If I remember correct they did that with Winter Soldier because there is already a movie called similar so that Marvel had to buy the rights for the German market and then they simply called it "Return of the first Avenger". I guess they didn't want to change the complete name for this one so that they still use "First Avenger" instead of "Captain America"
