A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Winter Soldier in the comics is Bucky, who was not!dead but frozen (and missing an arm), with convenient amnesia, trained by the Russians to be an assassin. He also had an affair with Black Widow.
t edit Or, what Wikipedia says.
Am I the only one NOT enthused about Ant-Man?
No. You are not.
I think the concept is ridiculous, and Hank Pym is an ass.
Agreed. Super-duper agreed.
I didn't see the Captain America movie, was Bucky in that?
re: Wikipedia--Wolverine has a son??
Of course, it's been 10 years or more since I read any X-Men . . .
Yay, Winter Soldier!
I HATED that vaporized water/microwave thing/fear toxin plot. So bad.
I am completely unenthused by Ant-Man.
Y'all, I have found myself so super-spoiled for TDKR. And it's only made me want to see it more. Like, five minutes from now. I need a time machine.
I didn't see the Captain America movie, was Bucky in that?
Yes, but he wasn't a kid like in the comics; he was a friend of Steve's who enlists in the Army while skinny Steve stays home. But, being Bucky, he does eventually become cannon fodder. (Not literally a cannon.)
So...holy SHITBALLS, if they do this right, it will be so, SO good.
A friend of mine just said on FB that she read the title as "Captain America: The WIENER Soldier."
...I would watch the hell out of that movie. IJS.
I feel like someone, somewhere has written that.
CJ's birthday is a week from today. In celebration, he is taking three friends to see the Batman trilogy on Thursday. I feel like I've raised him right.
I feel like someone, somewhere has written that.
Someone somewhere has filmed that, naked.
So...holy SHITBALLS, if they do this right, it will be so, SO good.
Oh yeah. Please do it right, Hollywood.
Also, please keep the whole Ant-Man thing away from my Avengers. MY Avengers, dammit.
Now I'm starting to feel bitter that we're getting an Ant-Man movie instead of a Black Widow one.
Ant-man? Sounds like something they need Jeff Goldblum for the role. Ugh. Definitely not enthused.
And I have to agree, I'd much rather have a Black Widow movie. Sigh, Hollywood, whyfor you have to be run by butts?
At least we may get some of her in the CA:WS movie? She did have an affair with the Winter Soldier. I dislike having to say "better than nothing", but damnit, Natasha deserves her own movie!
