The movie isn't what I was hoping for in a Cap movie, but it turned out so well I would be an idiot to complain. I do have one question though...
Do you think the way the cube went from Earth to Odin's treasure room will be explain in Avengers? I spent a little too much of the movie trying to figure that out. And then how'd it get from Odin's treasure room to Fury's possession?
I loved the Avengers teaser trailer at the end. I really feel like Marvel is 3 out of 5 for excellent movies and the two I leave out (IM2 and Hulk) are really good but I hate Hulk and IM2 gets alot of criticism.

The cosmic cube didn't go to Odin's treasure room. It fell into the bottom of the ocean. Are you confusing the frost giant's cube with the cosmic cube?

I don't think the cube was ever in Odin's treasure room in Thor's movie unless I missed something? And I believe it was simply explained in the beginning of the movie that Odin just left it behind for whatever reason

I saw this last night. Being Saturday night, the theater was needless to say FILLED. I'm glad we got their as early as we did.
Anyway, I loved every minute of it. Evans as Captain America was fantastic, and I really enjoyed Weaving as Red Skull. It was interesting how pleasant the crowd was too. In my experience they're either extremely quiet or extremely annoying and rude. The audience last night was the perfect audience and showed emotions at the right parts. You could tell everyone was loving it.
The origin was done very well. In fact, it was my favorite part of the movie. Oh and who didn't love the USO scene and all those great montage scenes? I loved the fact that it was a "period piece" and had the original Raiders action/adventure vibe to it.
The only gripe I have is THE AVENGERS. Yeah, I could have done without any mention of Avengers or Samuel Jackson or any of that. The movie could have stood on it's own. I much preferred Captain America's exploits as opposed to all the little hints and mentions of the Avengers, especially at the end. Captain America doesn't seem like the type that would join such a team going by this film, so it will be interesting to see him as team leader in the Avengers.
With that said, I'd prefer "Captain America 2" rather than the Avengers. I think you could make an excellent, solo film about how Captain America deals with the present time, especially considering how much America has changed . . . for the worse. Also see his reaction to how elderly or deceased all his friends and allies are.

There was a scene where there was a cube on a pedestool. I don't remember what part. Maybe I misinterpreted what was there, or maybe its like Cap's shield in IM and just there as an Easter egg in a standalone movie.
The Cosmic Cube is never in Odin's actual treasure room. The Frost Giant's cube is The Casket of Ancient Winters. In the comics Jarvis has it and it keeps him growing younger.
The Cosmic Cube is found at the bottom of the ocean by Howard Stark and if you look at Iron Man 2 when Tony is going through the notebook Howard Stark refers to it as the "hypercube", therefore alluding to the idea that Stark Industries got it's major push from using this to power it's first inventions. Also if you look at the Captain America Stark Industries example of a flying car, it's the same things that are seen underneath the Helicarriers in the comics. That connects Howard Stark with his work in SHIELD as referenced by Nick Fury in Iron Man 2.

Infinity Gauntlet (right) - The Infinity Gauntlet was designed to hold six of the 'soul gems', better known as the Infinity Gems. When used in combination their already impressive powers made the wearer nearly invincible.
Warlock's Eye (bottom, center) - A powerful, mystical weapon used unsuccessfully against Odin, Thor and the Warriors Three during an invasion of Asgard.
Orb of Agamotto (top,left center) - A scrying crystal ball used by Doctor Strange for clairvoyance. It has been known to open gateways between dimensions
Tablet of Life & Time (top, right center) - On the tablet was a biochemical formula for a serum, the so-called Lifeline Formula, which could rejuvinate, heal and grant its user the chance to reach the full evolutionary potential of its race turning the user into an immortal near omnipotent being

Is the Frost Giant's cube the one that Odin stole from them or is it something else? Maybe I'm nuts but I swear I saw a little clear cube on a pedestool in the treasure room... I remember seeing it on my first viewing and getting excited before even seeing it in the post credits...
Okay, I'm either insane, hallucinating during movies, or I'm the only who saw it because I knew I saw the cosmic cube in the treasure room, but now y'all have me doubting myself...
