Also, I was relieved that Emily Thorne sided with Cap.
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
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.

Thrive to spite them
WINTER SOLDIER! I saw it today in 3D It was awesome. Will asked me my favorite parts and I named half the freaking movie.
I think one of the biggest reactions came when Danny Pudi showed up. I swear to god I wasnn't the only one who blurted out ABED! I swear.
Unfortunately I had to go to the bathroom really bad and kept waiting for a good time and finally ran out during the escape scene when they are taken to Fury. I kinda guessed Fury was not dead. But I came back in time for that reveal.
Some questions I had were where did Sam get his wings in the big car chase/shoot out prior to them being taken prisoner (when we get the Winter Soldier is Bucky reveal) because I thought it was in the trashed car. Also in the end scene when HYDRA guys were saying Natasha didn't get all the stuff, was that the same guy that was taking care of Fury? I couldn't tell.
There was a little kid sitting behind me and the action with WS got a little intense because when he was on the runway thing taking out all the innocent guys the little kid started making distressed sounds but his dad soothed him. Speaking of Winter Solider I swear I was waiting for "are you ready for your treatment" when he started remembering. And then they gave him the mouth guard and he took it and just..well...took the pain and it was heartbreaking and horrible and Cap has to find him.. And comfort him.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Just got back from seeing CA2. Wow. That was a good time.
Apparently I had a theater full of non-comic-savy/non-spoiled people, because there was an audible gasp when the Winter Soldier lost his mask.
Also, I have no idea how Agents of SHIELD continues under that title after this.
Did anyone else catch the Easter Egg on Fury's tombstone ?
There was discussion on another site about where the name "Winter Solider" came from, and one of the origins was this: [link]
Which makes the title of the movie work on multiple levels.

All I noticed was the Path of the Righteous Man inscription (or something like that - I am so spoiled by DVRs, I kept wanting to rewind the movie real quick so I could check something out but that doesn't work at the theater...)

That was pretty much it, -t.
Specifically it said "The path of the righteous man." -Ezekiel 25:17 which considering it was the tombstone of Samuel L. Jackson's character was a nice touch.
