Oh! I heard the Afghanistan part, but not the Hawkeye part. Possibly because everyone was all "Danny Pudi!!!"
Right, what's a little sweater sniffing between sworn enemies?

D'oh! That's kind of awesome.
You know how people complain that trailers give away the movie, or the best parts of the movie? 100% untrue here (the exception is that I know I saw a trailer with Fury saying to Cap "I guess you're giving the orders now", and when that scene hadn't happened by the time Fury "died", that was a pretty clear indicator that it was a fakeout). And then, of course, Fury could have just been resurrected by Dr. Ron Glass/Kree goo. So that part didn't freak me out, although I loved Black Widow's reaction. That was a nice character moment.
But think about the trailers -- the Helicarrier crashing! OMFG, it must be the bad guys! But no! It's the good guys!
And the trailer with the voiceover of Pierce saying "You shaped this century...I need you to do it one more time" -- I totally thought that was something he said to Cap, but no! He said it to THE WINTER GODDAMN SOLDIER!
Well played, Marvel.

Marvel is just running circles around everyone at this point.

Also, I was relieved that Emily Thorne sided with Cap.

I knew she would because I know her character from the comics, but I was really proud of nerdy computer guy for putting his life on the line for Cap.

We are at the theater. We were going to try to see Veronica Mars today, but it is only playing in Boston now. So, we are seeing Captain America 2. I can't wait to read the whitefont.
