That's actually really shocking because of the 3, I thought Cap 2 looked like the worst movie.

I thought all three looked pretty ****ing good but Cap 2 was my favorite of the bunch. I will be my first Marvel film on Blu Ray. All three films were pretty good though.

What do guys make of that last paragraph, are we looking at JP creating their own Godzilla type monster?
With production well underway on the much anticipated Jurassic World, director Colin Trevorrow spoke today with /Film in an effort to set straight some rumors about the film that have popped on online. Read on for details regarding the June 12, 2015 release!
Please be aware, some spoilers follow:
"'Jurassic World' takes place in a fully functional park on Isla Nublar," Trevorrow confirms. "It sees more than 20,000 visitors every day. You arrive by ferry from Costa Rica. It has elements of a biological preserve, a safari, a zoo, and a theme park. There is a luxury resort with hotels, restaurants, nightlife and a golf course. And there are dinosaurs. Real ones. You can get closer to them than you ever imagined possible. It’s the realization of John Hammond’s dream, and I think you’ll want to go there."
Trevorrow goes on to reiterate that the story takes place 22 years after the events of Jurassic Park and explains that the script came about while trying to incorporate two important themes: economic greed and mankind's relationship with modern technology.
"[O]ur relationship with technology has become so woven into our daily lives," he explains. "We’ve become numb to the scientific miracles around us. We take so much for granted… What if, despite previous disasters, they built a new biological preserve where you could see dinosaurs walk the earth…and what if people were already kind of over it? We imagined a teenager texting his girlfriend with his back to a T-Rex behind protective glass. For us, that image captured the way much of the audience feels about the movies themselves. 'We’ve seen CG dinosaurs. What else you got?' Next year, you’ll see our answer."
Trevorrow goes on to correct a recent internet rumor that suggested that we'll see "good" dinosaurs in Jurassic World.
"There’s no such thing as good or bad dinosaurs," he says. "There are predators and prey. The T-Rex in Jurassic Park took human lives, and saved them. No one interpreted her as good or bad. This film is about our relationship with animals, how we react to the threat they pose to our dominance on earth as a species. We hunt them, we cage them in zoos, we admire them from afar and we try to assert control over them. Chris Pratt’s character is doing behavioral research on the raptors. They aren’t trained, they can’t do tricks. He’s just trying to figure out the limits of the relationship between these highly intelligent creatures and human beings."
He also confirms that the film will feature a brand new species.
"There will be one new dinosaur created by the park’s geneticists," he says. "The gaps in her sequence were filled with DNA from other species, much like the genome in the first film was completed with frog DNA. This creation exists to fulfill a corporate mandate—they want something bigger, louder, with more teeth. And that’s what they get."

Yup yup
Cap 2: 95,023
Godzilla: 93,188
DOFP: 90,800
Ultimately, money is money, but if DoFP was in Imax, you'd be looking at a different landscape.

Well after seeing it the second time it has become clear to me that Gareth Edwards is very good at something, having very tiny people in the foreground and huge monsters in the background.
Things like acting, pacing, plot development, scene blocking or editing? Not so much.
And whoever it was that pointed out Ken Watanabe pulls exactly the same expression for the entire movie. Thank you. You put the final nail in the coffin.
And my final gripe.. Considering how little creature feature action we actually get to see in the movie, I was amazed to feel bored by both creatures by the time the credits rolled.
The atomic breath is the highlight of the movie for me.
The only highlight now. I probably shouldn't watch it again.
