I like Winter Soldier but it's not my favorite. Maybe top 5.

just saw it. id give it a solid b

the plot twist caught me off guard as i stayed away from spoilers

i dug the uniforms and how they were able to adapt to situations/functionality

i really dont recall any dialogue that stood out and i like how things tied into the marvel cinematic universe


im hoping this does really well (probably not BP or WW well) but enough to piss off the comic gaters who are pissy that marvel didnt put out another male centric movie

also CA:WS is third best of them all behind A:IW and IM

I enjoyed it. I didn't find the exposition too heavy, the music didn't bug me, and I found CMs motivation believable, but I felt totally Solo'd by Fury's eye. A stupid story that we didn't need to know.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Man, that cameo.
Spoiler: show
If you've ever heard Kevin Smith talk about Stan, especially his Fatman Beyond episode/eulogy, you have to know what that scene means. God, just thinking about how much Kevin loved that man and that they chose to make that connection makes me misty-eyed. It's hard to explain, feeling feelings for someone else's feelings? I dunno.
If you haven't listened to that episode of the Fatman Beyond podcast, you really should.

What does it mean that Stan Lee exists in this universe? I assume he was asked to star in Mallrats because he wrote all the comics that introduced all these Avengers who actually exist.

I just read that Captain Marvel is killing it at the box office. It does not need my help. I'm back to not seeing it in a theater. Thank you for your attention.

That's like, what? ... 7th best opening for an MCU movie. I've enjoyed all the MCU movies except for Thor II: The Bad One, but this movie isn't top 10. I'd say mid teens in quality.

Interesting, nitpicky plothole:

"Come As You Are" was released in 1993, and was available on vinyl in 1996. Apparently, CM heard that song during her short visit to Earth and it became so important to her that it was playing in the construct for the AI.

Also, when Fury told her "lose the flannel," how did she know what flannel was?

Shut up, B. It made 153 million and it's the biggest opening of the year so far!

I'd put it in the top 10 if she smiled more.
