Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier (SPOILERS)

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I know! Bucky's twisted theme music/sound effects were rad and he looked badass with all mask configurations (full, half, and none.) And normally I'm the first to roll my eyes when comic book heroes take off their masks or spend extended amounts of time in their street clothes because it usually smacks of actors mugging for the camera but not in this one. It felt natural throughout and Rogers was cool in and out of uniform.

Spoiler

Cap dropping his shield and allowing Bucky to pummel him repeatedly in the face with his metal arm was so poignant and brutal. Then that 3D effect of Cap falling followed by him being dragged to shore and Bucky walking off in slow motion.

One of the best ways to wrap up any showdown EVER.

Great stuff indeed Khev.

It was like the ending of Gravity.

This movie was such a diss to Hawkeye. "Who in all of SHIELD can we trust? Sam Wilson. That's it." Ouch. Screw Budapest you pin shooting Legolas wannabe.

In fairness, the guy did almost take down the first Shield Hover-Carrier.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the movie and will definitely see it again, but it was just a thought. They mentioned everyone else, at least I thought they did. Was just a little surprised that Clint was not referenced. I can't wait to see how Agents of Shield is affected by all of this. One thing I do know is that Shield is not done yet.

Competition is human nature, coded into all our midichlorians.

Even the Terminator and Arnim Zola utilized it.

Now change your name to capfan and be done with it.

ScarJo was off the charts in this movie. That straight red hair, skinny waist, and War Games references? Too much!

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I saw it yesterday (retitled in germany, fyi, to "The Return of the first Avenger) and I enjoyed it very much.
Great movie and really even better then Thor, although both, Evans and Hemsworth, really now own those characters as RDJ.

Spoiler

Loved the angle with Zola and Hydra, in the old camp where Cap was created and also the Winter Soldier.
In the first Cap Stan was kinda strange. I didn't know if I like him. But here...when his mask is knocked away and when he shows the rest of his memories breaking through.

Great stuff. Can't wait to own it.

You aren't shittin'. Throughout most of her scenes, my mind was the equivalent of this gif on a loop:

Poor poor WB/DC.

We are still TWO years and a month away before WB/DC next attempt at delivering this kind of quality on display with Cap 2.

We will be discussing Avengers 2 here a full year before Batman vs Batman.

Hell, we are getting a superhero racoon before their next movie.

Poor poor WB/DC.

For real!

I love Marvel more than DC but I do want to see DC characters do well! Competition does breed creativity and the strive for either side to "be better".

But this is a PUMMELING. Marvel is about to put a RACCOON (and formerly HUGE minor and forgotten character until the recent GotG comeback several years ago) in one of their movies and DC can barely get their "Big 3" on the big screen.

DC needs to get their act straight...

Yeah, something like that. Gravity.

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I remember being a little let down when Gravity ended and she crawled up on the shore without any cool superhero gear. Thankfully TWS more than made up for it.

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

This movie is so nice! The more I think about it the more interesting things I remember. Like the necklace around Black Widow's neck had an arrow on it. Maybe Hawkeye was there in spirit.

Awesome!

Should we assume that WS used that rifle to snipe Fury? I don't remember it actually appearing anywhere.

Robert Redford's character would make a great ally for Superman in the next MoS film.

"What if I told you I can save 7 billion lives at the expense of only 20 million?"

Cavill Superman: "I can live with that."
