Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

It's ok. It's not great. I don't hate the movie, and as I said, Evans surprised me, I just hate his Avengers helmet. But the comparison to something like Raiders is too wild and shouldn't happen even with tone.

That's absolutely what it should have felt like, which is what tone ultimately is, but it feels more like I'm watching a James Cameron future war playout than a WW2 prison break. That camp looks straight out of T: Salvation machine factory and nothing like a POW camp. The vehicles are not WW2, (no tiger tanks, halftracks, planes) the weapons are not ww2, the soldiers are armored Hellgast with Laser rifles. Moonraker 2.

In fact I'd argue the tone they chose was easily the biggest problem. If you're going out of your way to make a period piece, set it in that period. As a stand alone future noir alternate universe Flash Gordon movie, TFA was great.

:exactly::lecture:exactly:

So pretty much the movie Zach wanted. :lol

I still love you Celtic :rotfl

The First Avenger was a refreshingly fun, light-hearted and entertaining movie, and is one of my favourite entries into the MCU

Captain America's character and Evan's performance was great in both TFA and TA.

Explain tech advances by saying Zola is really smart. Ok. He's so smart he single handedly created the laser gun, mastered fake skin and face tech, built advanced computers that were as good as the ones we have today.

Captain America's character and Evan's performance was perfect in both TFA and TA, and the transition between movies was great


Now for a more informed view and counterpoint:

Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

Yep looking good! Interested to see some pics from the set...

Also interested to see if the costume changes are extended to SHIELD agents and Black Widow
 
Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

I don't mind the costume, but it's not Captain America and never was in the comics. I don't mind it this is used as a suit for a bit more stealth or may be when(or if) he is hunting for the Winter Soldier in Russia (makes a bit of sense to not be dressed in a US flag).

This is Agent Rogers, not Cap

Would have liked to see the photonic shield also with this suit.
 
Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

Wonder if he'll have this and a flag costume too.

Googled the photonic shield and saw a pic of the first IM movie where there's Cap's shield replica in the background, since Tony didn't like, or at the very least get along with Cap in TA it made no sense that he had that :cuckoo:

I like the small hints to a modern military uniform like the reverse (possibly IR?) flag on the shoulder. Good to see the chinstrap back and the fingerless gloves give him sort of an edgey spec ops look. I like it so far but like others have said we need a definitive flag motif costume, and I dunno about the photonic shield, it wasn't in the WS story arc but im assuming they are gonna mix in some of the Steve Rogers Super Soldier.

I believe it was left over from Tony's dad when he was collaborating with Cap for the uniform and shield.

exactly

which is why the avengers costume is still the best looking..more to his comic look...they just need to add wings now
 
Re: Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier

Rhodey was never Iron Patriot in the comics but people are excited to see that in IM3.
