Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier (SPOILERS)

[jye4ever]

Bluray release date will be a very exciting day.

God i'm such a geek.

 

[Khev]

Art book this week, then HT figures, then blu-ray, then PF, then....

We started the day of beautifully with a 8:20am showing . This is my 3rd watch and it all keeps getting better every time.

Rumlow is one of my favorite characters in this. I can't wait to see what they do with his story going forward

I was really surprised by how much I liked him. Cold hearted bastard as he is. I'm really looking forward to seeing him as Crossbones. Although, he'll have to step up his game... his comic counterpart can hold his own against Cap, and Rumlow in the movie got his ass spanked.

Based on his condition at the end of the film, I suspect he will get some "help" to match Cap.

Just inject everyone with the SSS.

With one hand (magnetically) tied behind Steve's back no less!

But Rumlow still just oozed competence. He owned Falcon and even when the helicarrier hit the building he didn't let out a terrifying shriek but rather a mildly annoyed "son of a *****."

Marvel Universe is like WV everyone is linked together somehow

j/k

Happy Easter to all WS fans!

 

[jedibear]

^^^ Nice! ^^^

 

[Henry Morgan*]

I buy a lot of figures now, but that awesome feeling when you finally have a figure/toy you really want its something that fades away when you grow up... yup that picture brought back some memories, happy easter!

 

[jye4ever]

Great pic Khev.

And Cap beats Rio again.

Not just RDJ anymore

 

[pturtle]

Yikes! Transcendence didn’t even come close to the number one spot. Depp better start campaigning for the Doctor Strange role if he wants to end his box office problems.

Awesome pic Khev!

Nice pic, Khev.

Well they set up Falcon as an ex-pilot of sorts, and didn't specify that he was anything special in terms of fighting ability--in fact, they make a point of pointing out his physical inadequacies in the opening scene. Rumlow was supposed to be a special forces infantryman type, so it only makes sense to me that he could kick Falcon's ass without breaking a sweat. In the comics, he could sometimes hold his own against Cap, though it seems that in the movie-verse they want to make it clear that no human can really match up with Cap in a fight. Which I'm OK with.

 

[jye4ever]

Cap will subdue the Hulk in Avengers 2.

 

[Biojex]

Happy Easter to all WS fans!

Too damn adorable.

 

[GasparZizou]

I wonder what it is to have kids being a collector, I can only picture myself locking my collection room in fear of my kids trashing the place with a soccer ball like I used to do to our living room with my brother when I was 10

 

[Anzik]

My kids ate 11 and 14 but have known for years not to touch Daddy's figures.

11 and 14? How did they get by eating one?!!?

 

[Khev]

Wow, thanks for all the kinds words fellas. It sure is fun to share beloved movies with the little ones.

And Cap beats Rio again.

And passed 200 million domestic!

Nice pic, Khev.

Absolutely, I realize that Falcon shouldn't have lasted long against Rumlow based on the establishment of each character in film but so often in these types of movies they'll have a huge underdog (like a love interest or sidekick) become a temporary superhero out of the blue and go toe to toe with a more powerful foe and I'm glad they didn't go that route in TWS. Obviously I don't mind underdogs getting the upperhand, most movies involve that to some degree, I just like it to be feasible (like Falcon simply surviving long enough for the helicarrier to hit.)

 

[karamazov80]

Yeah, I was also glad that that happened, when I first saw it and didn't realize that was Crossbones just because of the backgrounds and established abilities of the two characters. But I appreciated it even more after realizing who that was supposed to be.
