This is now my favorite Marvel movie. I would have picked The Avengers before, but I think Cap 2 has a better ending. The ending of Avengers has an enemy that I just don't care about. Generic aliens. The antagonist in Cap 2 is a much more compelling finale to me.Arsenal of Doom said:I saw this again with my son yesterday. I think I actually liked it more on second viewing. In fact, as a standalone movie, I'm ready to call it the overall best film Marvel has done.
Avengers will always stand a bit apart based on being as much an Event as a movie. In terms of storytelling, plot, and dramatic tension, I think Cap 2 is on a different level. Bonus points for being socially relevant and actually having a message behind it.
I get what you're saying, but isn't Hydra just as much "generic Nazis" as the Chitauri are "generic aliens"?This is now my favorite Marvel movie.

As of right now I would have to rank the Top 3 as:Saw it tonight with my family. We all loved it. Thought the tip of the cap to Jules was awesome as someone else mentioned earlier. Marvel is really doing a great job weaving all these individual movies together, a lesson that DC sorely needs to learn.
Not sure anyone else caught the reference to
Steven Strange and Bruce Banner. Hope that may mean we can see a Dr Strange movie, that would be excellant

Absolutely not. I generally like 3D and IMAX but you won't miss anything.Is it necessary to see CA2 in 3D?
absolutely agree.Absolutely not. I generally like 3D and IMAX but you won't miss anything.Is it necessary to see CA2 in 3D?
Enjoyed the movie very much.
I had no clue who the folks in the end credit scenes were though. I assume they're significant in the Marvel universe?
Yup.Enjoyed the movie very much.

Ah, thanks.Enjoyed the movie very much.
I had no clue who the folks in the end credit scenes were though. I assume they're significant in the Marvel universe?Quicksilver (super, super, super speed) & Scarlet Witch (casts hexes with often upredictable reality bending results). They are mutants, the children of Magneto actually
Comparing this movie to the first one is a mistake. Cap 2 was better in every possible way, and arguably right up there with IM1 and Avengers.First one was the worst of the bunch so I'll wait to get this via Amazon.

Ah gotcha.

Not sure how the licensing rights work out on that one but it gives me a glimmer of hope that one day we will have an X-Men/Avengers crossover.

I kept thinking this as well. I know it's dumb, but I guess that's just something you deal with now that they've linked the movies.Really enjoyed this movie. The only complaint I have(and this is a minor minor nitpick) is I wish they would do a better job explaining why the other avengers are occupied and can't help.
Finally took my sons to see it yesterday afternoon. It definitely was very topical and had a decent message about national security vs. freedom.
One question I had was:
What was the significance of Black Widow putting all of SHIELD's information on the internet? Did I miss something?

"Captain, if those ships get to 3,000 feet, they'll be linked with the satellites and 20 million people will die!"
"Well, I can text Stark and get him over here to shoot them down in like 30 seconds."

Hulk typically in solitude somewhere and Thor in another realm. Stark has a freaking tower in NYC.
I don't really blame them for it, that would be stupid, but I just kept thinking it in the movie and found it distracting is all.That's what happens in comics. It would be pretty boring if it didn't.

It would probably be worse if in every solo movie they had to come up with an explanation why the other heroes aren't around to pitch in.I don't really blame them for it, that would be stupid, but I just kept thinking it in the movie and found it distracting is all.That's what happens in comics.

Did Pepper Potts need help hanging blinds?
