^No, Fury's helicarrier is the one that has B** M***** F****** on it. (Another Pulp Fiction shout out, his tomb did say Ezekiel 25:17.)
I don't think Disney would allow it but I stand corrected.

I kind of meant that her callsign is Shield 616 (Universe 616), but yeah they give them vague nicknames loosely based on some facet of their nature.
The carrier having one now or in future movies would be cool. Just not the Avengers Mobile...
In The Avengers, Fury referred to it as a boat. Maybe it's The Boat.
Plus, it would cover up the fact that Fury is referring to a ship as a boat, which would offend plenty of Navy people. If it's its actual name, it's more forgiveable.
Serves them right for demanding that spacecraft be called ships and have a "Captain" ranked officer in charge
I guess he doesn't actually work for anyone. In any sense no longer the US Army Since he wasn't promoted posthumously in 1945 and was probably a consultant with SHIELD and held onto the Captain honorarium while working with the assortment of Agents and Director Fury. And Captain sounds better then Agent Rogers, in effect he would just be another man in black.

General America sounds...generic.
however, I would like a character on Agents of SHIELD call Coulson "Lieutenant America", and I think he'd appreciate it.

In the current run of Avengers, Avengers from a parallel universe have been pulled into the main universe and are causing trouble with the "real" Avengers, Captain America's counterpart is "General America."
He's Army, so Captain falls in a different rank scheme...the next few ranks up would be Major, Lt. Colonel, and Colonel, I believe. Full Colonel is the equivalent of a naval Captain.
Indeed, had Steve Rogers received a Navy commission, he would be Lieutenant America.
In the comics does Ultron have a connection to HYDRA?
I still can't figure out a plausible theory as to how the Avengers,the fallen S.H.I.E.L.D., HYDRA, and Ultron are going to fit together in Avengers: Age of Ultron. I mean, Captain America: The Winter Soldier didn't even do anything like have a scene where a HYDRA grunt says, "Hey Baron von Strucker, we've acquired Pym's research. He never noticed. We're now ready to begin Project Ultron." So then is Ultron going to be working with HYDRA? Or what?
I think HYDRA is mostly an opening scene type thing. It only exists to bring Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch to the Avengers. I think Ultron is going to be ultimately unrelated.
