Just saw this, it's the best Marvel Cinematic Universe movie without a doubt. Not a single second was wasted, I was basically glued to the screen during the entire film. The action choreography was amazing, so elaborate, also the best I've seen in a Marvel flick. Great stuff, couldn't be happier.

You son of a bitch. You, along with others, are cementing this necessity to see it on opening night. Don't tell me it's so good! God damn it

We're so close, USA-GAF.
It's beyond good. ITS SO FUCKING GOOD!
It's beyond "so good". Really. If you like the MCU even a little this will blow you away.

Although I think most of the marvel studios movies are hit and miss I'm glad to see the Winter Solider is getting great reviewws from critics and fans especially as a HUGE fan of the Brubaker run on Cap. Most definitely will be checking this out this weekend with my friends.

The general consensus so far is to see it in 2D, the 3D adds nothing and is not worth it. That's what most people have been saying anyway.

FunkoPOP figures! Nice, I love those. I have Iron Man and Iron Patriot for Marvel stuff so far. They'll likely sell it for real though.

No. In fact it is the other thing.

While on first glance the initial trailers made this look a bit like a miss, I'm getting pretty hyped...
...at no point did this look like a miss
The beginning of the film is essentially MGS: The Movie.

I came out of the theater and all we could talk about was how much the beginning of the film would have basically made for a good MGS film.

I thought this as well. First thing I thought pretty much,
stormy looking weather on a ship being held hostage.

For someone who hasn't watched a single Marvel cinematic film but has read the comics, how lost will I be? Curious about the movie because Chris Evans was great in Snowpiercer.
Read which comics? Do you know that Captain America is a WW2 super soldier fighting a Nazi high tech organization known as Hydra? Do you know he was frozen in ice and defrosted in modern day? Do you know that he works for an international intelligence/defense organization called SHIELD, run by Nick Fury? If you know all that, you should be good to go for this movie.

I completely disagree. In my opinion the 3D is great. Does the movie demand to be seen in 3D? No, but it's very well done. Unobtrusive yet effective.

It seems cinemas are a lot more common in London than a US city, which means they're always less packed.

Read the Brubaker run many years ago but yes, I know all of that! Looks like they haven't deviated much from the comics. Guess I'll watch the movie next week. Thanks.

This movie is a TON of fun if you've read the Brubaker run. In fact, he even has a cameo in the movie.

I don't give a shit about X-Men and Spider-Man if they keep this up. Interesting that FF isn't mentioned in that same sentence. I wonder if the roadmap does include potential FF movies.

Whedon is already sabotaging the project as we speak, and soon he shall be reporting to Overlord Feige. Everything is going according to plan.

Loved this movie. Definitely my favorite of the solo MCU movies, and I think I liked it more than the Avengers too.
Did anyone who has seen it yet catch the easter egg before the credits?

On Nick Fury's grave, it read "'The path of the righteous man...' Ezekiel 25:17".

In 14 years I can definitely see them adding enough characters and series to make the MCU effectively as densely populated and diverse as 616. They can literally tell stories forever and as long as they continue making GOOD movies and making them feel fresh and diverse (this strategy of assigning different "genres" to each movie is super effective), people are going to keep showing up.
Yup. This could be a great journey. Only potential issue is casting. I'm sure at some point they'll just Ant Viv a cast member to see how it's received.

That's exactly what Feige has been saying from early on. Their plan is to "James Bond" it. The negative impact from recasting a main character is far less than rebooting continuity ad-nauseam, especially when every movie is so intrinsically tied to the next.
These quotes are from 2012. Obviously I don't expect Feige to be doing this forever, but given the level of control and influence he has had over Marvel Studios as a whole, and provided the current run of movies continues to be successful, I don't see his successor changing the game plan.
