Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

One thing I liked about Captain America was the realistic nature of some of the German secret weapons. Germany did a lot of experimenting with flying-wing aircraft, as a way of getting the range needed for bombers to fly to America and back, and to improve performance of the era's relatively crude jet and rocket engines.

Then there's this thing:

I don't think a prototype of that ever flew.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yep. Marvel canon.

I want to see it again now.

I kept wondering when I was watching it who the heck the actor playing the English Howling Commando (memefault on name) was, because WOW, he looked familiar. Which would be because it's JJ Feild, and I saw him in the last movie I saw in theatres, Third Star. He impressed me enough in that that I kept meaning to find something else he'd been in and watch it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I haven't seen Captain America yet, but Chatty!co-worker did, and he mentioned a musical number. Is that bullshit? Are talking, like, music playing over a montage? Or more like Dr. Horrible? I'm assuming the first, because something like Dr. Horrible would be spoiled faster than potato salad at a picnic in Hell.

Tep, neither. Also, it's STUCK IN MY HEAD.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They did have a nod to the incongruity of an Asian man on the troop, which was something.

It's a perfectly honourable musical number. Bear in mind, Cap punches a submarine. Which totally makes up for it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Raq, re: your whitefont Also, what ever came of the good guys getting a sample of Cosmic Cube Juice?, do you mean when Howard Stark found the cube ? I assumed that would be addressed in The Avengers.

ita, yes, and he didn't die, either!!

Steph, it's somewhat tied to the storyline. Whether that bit is true to Capt. America canon, I have no idea.

Loki is the bad guy for the Avengers, so the cosmic cube guesses make sense.

Also I watched HP 7.1 last night with my roommate. Damn, I've forgotten so much of what happened in that book. I expected Hedwig's death, but had forgotten about MadEye and Dobby . Now to see 7.2.
