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

I find most people are scared to kill you, and it isn't a hard trigger to miss, or a difficult technique to stop. You kinda let go by reflex at that point.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I find most people are scared to kill you

This is a concept that had honestly never occurred to me.

Man, I haven't watched Somewhere in Time in decades. Forgot how much I loved the music.

What if they made a stupid battleship style movie based on Tetris [link]

Matt, when you slash Steve and Bucky, when do you do it? I mean, is it pre-serum Steve, or after the rescue of the 107th?

I'm watching Captain America right now, and I think it is my favourite of the Avengers components right before the movie itself. I don't know why something so clearly and inherently jingoistic gets me, who usually avoids war movies like the plague.

Chris Evans plays it just right, though, and it has the best supporting cast of any of the year's superhero flicks. I don't wonder why for any of the interactions, including the romantic subplot, and she's not ditzy or shoved to the side or anything.

I am so eyerolly at the people who thought Chris was too flip for this. He's *perfect*.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I worried about that myself despite being a longtime fan, based on Johnny Storm, Jake Jensen, and the bulk of his other characters. But he knocked it out of the park with a much more grounded and mature performance.

I tend to think pre-serum myself. Bucky did not act like someone who felt he'd hit the jackpot when his friend bailed and left him with two pretty girls the night before shipping out.

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

Had you seen Push or Sunshine when he got cast? I thought he'd already proven himself playing responsible leadership roles. I mean, not that I necessarily needed proof--I was willing enough to give him the benefit of the doubt anyway, but I mean, he was plenty capable of gravitas and maturity.

I'd forgotten how large a role Dr. Stark had in this movie. I haven't read much Tony/Steve (it's mostly a fanart pairing for me), but I do wonder if that tends to come up.

I did see the beginnings of a very nice Steve/Peggy/Howard picture yesterday.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

FTR, one of my coworkers said she worked with Chris Evans when he was a kid, and said he was great.

I loved him in Cellular.
