  1. punchtanium?

    whatever his shield's made of, how did he not rip out an American-sized boner when he kissed scarlett johansson? don't care what you all think, she's the hottest woman in film, bar none. then he acts like he's not even interested. maybe the serum shrank his nuts.

    Well, he is 95 years old. He could use probably use some Viagra.

  2. I was kind of under the impression that he had multiple shields. In the earlier scenes, the shield seemed to have darker paint job, and later when Cap has his classic suit on, the shield has the bright USA colors. Maybe it was my imagination about the coloring, but if it's true then I'd think the classic shield is the only pure vibranium one, and all the other ones are made with a similar-but-not-exact alloy. Also I would think the Winter Soldier's arm has some magic 'punchtanium' properties as well.

    On a related note, I think "punched him in the shield" is a a hilarious phrase

  3. the title "the winter soldier" actually refers to captain america himself

    ...but nah, I don't buy that.

    i don't always post about how much i hate spoilers in movies, but when i do, i make sure to have a bunch of unannounced spoilers in there

    sigh

    Well, I preceded my spoilers by saying "I was spoiled right away by..." If only the theater and the guy behind me had been so kind. Anyway, I watched the film again (this time it was technically impossible for anyone to spoil me) and I enjoyed it. It's pretty much in a different genre than the other MCU movies, largely a political thriller with a little spy-tech mixed in. I think my initial boredom came from my own expectations of what the film would be, since my mind was coming off of Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World.

  4. I could not be more pissed off right now. So I made a point not to spoil myself and avoided ads and trailers. When I went into the theater, I was spoiled right away by a featurette about Falcon that precedes the feature film. Yeah, cuz it's not like the film goes out of its way to gradually reveal aspects of Falcon's character (or even the Falcon name) or anything. That was bad enough, but it got worse: a promo for the S.H.I.E.L.D. tv show also played before the film, talking about the rift within the organization (again, not a major plot point in the movie, right?) To top it off, a guy behind me blurted out every major plot point seconds before it happened on screen. Why do I bother going to the cineplex?

    So more on topic: movie was kinda boring. I was expecting more time-displacement moments from Cap to lighten things up or make him more interesting. What I got was pretty much another lead-in movie, kind of like The First Avenger.

    EDIT: What amused me is that The Winter Soldier's role in the movie is pretty much the same as Tron's role in Tron Legacy -- to provide an excuse for the film's title to exist.
