The Fury death fake out was a lost opportunity for them to bust out some LMD's.
I felt the same way. I was like "Yeah, you go random old lady!"I loved that but I really wanted it to be the older lady council member to actually be kicking ass. People in our theatre were like "yeah!" and then "oh"
Natasha still rocked it though
You don't even need to read the comic books. The Winter Soldier's identity is the biggest non-surprise ever. I'm shocked that anyone was shocked.When they revealed the Winter Soldier's identity (almost) everyone in the theater gasped, and then a guy said "read the comic books people!" I can't decide if he was being a douche or not. Part of me says yes but I have a conflicting opinion that he was in the right.
That was a cool flick.
So...what's the explanation for why when shit hits the fan this time, Iron Man is completely MIA? Was he busy or something? All those suits he blowed up at the end of Iron Man 3 could have come in handy...
It would have been funny if he makes a quip in the next movie that installing Stark repulsor tech in the hellicarriers gave him an emergency backdoor, and that even if all 3 hellicarriers were to have become operational, he would have just flipped a switch and turned them all into lemons.

Total douche. He's not in the right. A movie audience cannot be expected to have an in-depth comic background.When they revealed the Winter Soldier's identity (almost) everyone in the theater gasped, and then a guy said "read the comic books people!"

*Oh, hey Widow."
But I can't stay mad, since she's so awesome.

For a Movie named the Winter Soldier, I did expect more Focus on him.He is barely in the movie and seems only to be there for his supposed stand alone movies hook/induce drama with Rogers. He could have been replaced by any Super-Soldier/Assassin/Whatever for HYDRA and the story would have been exactly the same. I mean, how many lines does he have? 10? 12? The Hydra Henchmen we follow all movie has more screentime/lines!
Bucky/Winter Soldier is the personal heart of the movie for Cap. So he's kind of important. I see it as he's not over-exposed - when he shows up, you know it's for a reason and things are about to be smashed and broken.
Plus he does represent a purposeful red herring. A typical ham-fisted comic book movie would be titled "CAPTAIN AMERICA: RISE OF HYDRA!" But no, the real villains and plot are hidden by both the title and the overt story premise. (Legendary assassin appears and goes to war with Captain America.)
Movie was great. Needed more Final Justice though.
Agents of SHIELD gave some more backstory to the HYRDA takeover:
There are 10 levels of shield agents, with Fury being lvl 10 and Sitwell being lvl 7. All the 8s and 9s were loyal to HYDRA. Public attacks on SHIELD facilities around the world took place with HYDRA taking control of some of them.
His theme and Cap's were fucking awesome. Both fit their respective scenes perfectly.

Cap's horns. So good.
Hydra Plan was Stupid.They they really expect that no one gonna react to helicarriers killing people all over the world? And don't let me start on that algorithm that can detect people all over the world and know their future

I enjoyed this movie but I thought it had pretty much the same story as Star Trek: Into Darkness.
Worth seeing in 3D or not? Gonna dip out of work soon to go see it.
Personally I was relieved that it turned out to be Widow because the idea of the council lady randomly turning out to be able to kick everyones ass reminded me of something belonging in Hot Fuzz.

I was willing to believe it given that she was a SHIELD higher up (and perhaps a previous agent).
Anyway, what is her fate? Is she the only one of them still alive?

I don't think all the 8's and 9's are loyal to Hydra. Maria Hill certainly wasn't and she's up there, probably at a 9 since she's basically second in command. And I think Hawkeye and Black Widow are 9's at least. But most of them, definitely.
The first ep of Agents of Shield Mariah Hill says all Avengers are level 7 which is why they dont know coulson is alive and only level 8 and above know Coulson is alive. The two scirntsts with his team are level 5. Mae is level 8 garret I'm not sure l. By ya Widow and Hawkeye are level 7.I don't think all the 8's and 9's are loyal to Hydra.

Please never say that again. Also, it only is the same if you remove the characters, the plot, the pacing, the logic, the action, and the dialogue.

When Cap is on the elevator with Fury, it lists him as level 7, while Fury is 8.
Fury is 10, Steve is 8.
My friends and I audibly yelled out about this, and we seemed to be the only people in the theater who saw it."The path of the righteous man..." gravestone tho
why not launch nukes instead of wasting time build 3 ships
