Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I'm still torn on if I wanted

Pierce to be Red Skull or not

I'm glad he wasn't.

One of the things I loved about seeing the double feature was how you got to see the various parallels.

Cap facing Bucky on the bridge; it almost looked like the shot of Cap on Red Skull's aircraft was reproduced, and, even, the whole ending, really (Cap has to stop a mad man who's part of Hydra from launching aircrafts that could kill millions of people. I feel like, had Pierce been Red Skull, it would've put an end to that "subtlety," and kind of ruined the appreciation of those smaller things (they would've seemed forced, rather than being awesome thematic homages, if you will.

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

GAH!!!! :gah: hate that I still havent seen it so i can read all these spoiler posts.
 
Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I wanted him to be. Or someone to be. I wonder if

Strucker can use Lokis staf to maybe bring Red Skull back from whereever he was sent.

I believe that's where they're going with that.

but Hawkeye and possibly BW will break the twins out of Strucker's jail in the beginning of Avengers 2, wonder if they will also get the staff back.
 
Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I kind of want Red Skull to return as a sort of mad genius who's unlocked the secrets of the universe.

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I'm just going to come out and say it.

No cbm from the 70/80/90/2000/2010 can match the level of action from this movie.

The car chase alone is better than most movies known for their car chases (insert your favorite car chase here).

The gun battles alone are better than most movies known for their gun battles, i'm talking about Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down and Heat quality on display here.

Expendables has nothing on this movie.

The superhero action on display was better than any other cbm, period.

Also the political darkness vibe from this movie was creepy at certain points, well done.

I still love Avengers, but this movie is easily tied with that one. Avengers was still the best midnight show I have ever experienced, and its still a great movie, but the pure action from Cap 2 easily overtakes Avengers.

MOS action is down right boring when compared to Cap 2.

From the ****ing Russo brothers no less, really, how is this even possible!

Avengers 2 will certainly need to step it up a few notches now.

Come at me bro. :lol

Agreed on the action. In some ways, I think that kind of proves just how good it is, when it can be that action packed, and still be a well balanced, thought provoking, and, occassionally, heartwarming film.
I also agree with the political thriller stuff, like Redford sitting in the kitchen with The Winter Soldier. "Oh, Renata, why'd you have to come back?"

That could be pretty cool. I'm very curious where he got that item from. My Dad was asking me if Hydra will play a part much at all in Avengers 2.
