Captain America: The First Avenger

Panfan · 07-23-2011, 06:27 PM

So remember when Marvel made two awesome comic book movies this summer? Well, there's a third one out right now and it's equally awesome (if not more). Captain America really impressed me. Maybe it's all the Nazi-fighting (or really Hydra-fighting, whatever) but I got really strong Indiana Jones vibes from the entire movie. It was pretty well-cast, action-packed, funny, and combines everything that makes the Marvel movies leading up to next year's Avengers movie so awesome in to one film. I think it's my favorite so far of the pre-Avengers movies. Not sure if it's better than First Class though. That **** was spectacular.

oh, and if you don't stay for the end credits, you suck forever, because it's...

I honestly think the Avengers movie will be a bigger deal than The Dark Knight.

^ Well, all the movies leading up to it have been good to excellent, and Joss Whedon is directing. Hype machine be rolling up in dis bitch.

Spoiler Below

favorite part was when the ending when he breaks out of the "holding cell" and runs into the middle of times square, thought that was pretty cool

also what was with the part when red skull was holding the cube and space appeared? did he get vaporized or sucked up into space to the gods? wasn't so sure

Somebody got mad at me for "spoiling the movie" (which I haven't even seen yet) by saying Cap "kills Nazis, beats Red Skull, gets frozen in ice". Bear in mind that the first two things on that list were in the trailer, & the last one was hinted at in the past Marvel movie (which the guy who got mad at me HAS seen). Also, I mentioned that I hadn't seen the movie so they might've done the ending differently. The dude was still indignant even after I pointed out that I hadn't revealed any information that wasn't DECADES old.
Him: But I haven't read the comic books at all!
Me: Neither have I. At all. I also knew that Harvey Dent would become Two-Face, Jean Grey would become the Phoenix, & Tony Stark would become an alcoholic. You & I share many friends, people who I've heard--& I'm sure you've also heard--talk about these stories long before any of them were filmed.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

^ Captain America being in ice happens to be the first scene in the movie.

^Ah, good, so I literally spoiled nothing then.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I watched this movie last night.

I was kind of expecting a much more high budget movie (kind of like Iron Man) but the movie seems good enough without it. I personally enjoyed the movie, though I haven't seen any of the other "Avenger" Movies. I guess I could try to get on that.
