Why the fuck is Natasha "frisky"? Why do I want to kill everyone?
I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think that you might be.

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.

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

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.
Most of the negative reviews I've seen seem to be from folks who don't actually like superhero movies.
I read one that complained about the "generic quick-cut action where it's impossible to tell what's going on that's in all action films these days" and I had to wonder what film they were watching. One of the things I liked about CA:tWS was that I could actually tell what was going on in most of the fight scenes and they did some really nifty stuff with Cap's shield.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, yeah, I often have trouble following what is actually going on in fight scenes lately, but not in Winter Soldier. Even with the 3D blur.

I will agree with that article P-C linked, where an unfortunate number of reviews that dismiss Black Widow as eye-candy and/or question why Scarlett Johansen is in such a "meaningless" role.
Personally, I think Widow was an essential part of the movie, both for her contributions to their endeavors, and as a foil to Cap's idealism. (She also got most of the best lines, though Falcon and Cap had some good ones, too.) I also loved the bit where Cap goes back for the thumb drive to find it missing and Widow steps up behind him popping the gum it was hidden behind.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I said this on Facebook, but I feel it strongly enough to say it again. It's nice that Marvel is filming so much in Cleveland, so I don't have to go back there to visit in person. I did a certain amount of "Hey I used to ride my bike across that bridge" while watching this movie. Of course, during Avengers I was playing "Spot the spots where I'd go when cutting school".

All is well that ends in pizza.
That was in my white-font, but I failed at indicating there was white-font.
Oh, oops. I didn't realize there was white font. It's sneaky that way
It's insidious. Like root beer, and the Federation.

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

Art Crawl!!!
I can't see it until after my next payday.
You guys spend lots of money seeing it multiple times so it will still be here - okay?
(It would be the 3rd weekend. . . )

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I think it's safe to say it'll be in theaters for at least a month.

I do have to wonder why Steve thought hiding the jump drive in a vending machine with a giant window was a good idea. Are villains not allowed to carry small bills in the MCU? "The secret McGuffin would be mine if only I had change for a 50. Curse you, Captain America!"
