Oh, man, this movie.
I loved how Steve ends up at the end fighting in the WWII version of his uniform, back from when he had Bucky, and when he had the certainty that what he was doing was right.
Everything with Falcon was gold. And I was thrilled that my theater had so many African-Americans in it, and they were so psyched about Fury and Falcon.
There were definitely people in my theater who didn't know that Bucky was the Winter Soldier -- people beside my husband. There were several gasps.
Husband's comment was Why did they call it "Winter Soldier" when it actually was mostly set up for a future movie? I said because calling it "Captain America: SHIELD is Evil" would give away too much.
I had to smile every time I saw Natasha's little arrow necklace. But I totally missed Danny Pudi saying anything about Hawkeye. I did catch the Dr. Strange reference.
I have so many other thoughts! I can't even organize them, because I'm too busy having them.
One thing that just occurred to me, if Widow uploaded all of SHIELDs files to the internet then Tony Stark totally knows Coulson is alive now.
I am actually really interested to see what happens with Agents of SHIELD now, although it doesn't make up for the series being so disappointing so far.
Yeah, this is the most excited I've been for the next episode of SHIELD since the show started.
I've been reading the white font because I'm no fan of suspense, and I want to know how badly Jossed my fic is getting. My biggest reaction is No, Sitwell! But Coulson's reaction to all this will be interesting.
I'm pretty sure the main thing I have to say about Captain America is a quote from Linda Holmes on the Pop Culture Happy Hour podcast: There should be more things where Anthony Mackie is the guy, not the other guy.
I heard that Strange name too, but totally missed the reference to Hawkeye .
I'm not sure where I heard it but I could swear that I saw an ad that said that this week's Agents episode will be appreciably different as a result of movie events .
News here about Sabastian Stan having a 9 picture deal and elsewhere that he spent 5 months training for Cap2 AND spent every day walking around set with a plastic knife, so that his movements were totally natural ...well, all that makes me wibble a bit.
This whole article is super fun. LOTS of Cap2 spoilers and cool tidbits.
So the movie appears to be doing well:
In only 10 days overseas, the sequel has already taken in $207.1 million -- eclipsing the entire foreign run of Captain America: The First Avenger ($193.9 million).
As for opening weekend, it's one of those weekends:
1. Captain America: The Winter Soldier, 1/3,938, Disney/Marvel, $96.2 million.
2. Noah, 2/3,751, Paramount/New Regency, $17 million, -61%, $72.3 million.
I missed the Strange reference but caught the reference to the Valedictorian in Iowa City which played well with the Iowa audience.
