I agree about not being sure if I would like Captain America or not but when I broke down and borrowed the movie from the library, I realized it was interesting (and enjoyed the ensemble cast although your point is well-taken--it would have been nice to spend more time with Bucky individually and the Howling Commandos collectively) so I impatiently waited for the new Captain America movie. Now I cannot wait to own it myself and keep watching it. The dynamic among Steve, Natasha and Sam is interesting and one that definitely kept me watching. I think it really hurt Steve that what he fought for in World War II, the defeat of Hydra, ended up disguising itself inside SHEILD, making the dubious morality of what he was seeing even more painful. Let's just say I am looking forward to the third Captain America movie and see where they take the characters.
Plus, I want to know where you are reading these awesome fanfiction stories you are really enjoying.
Agreed agreed agreed. I really want to both own the Winter Soldier movie and also really want it to be 2016 so that I can see the next Cap movie. :P
As for fanfiction - all I've been doing is going to AO3 and doing a search through the Captain America (Movies) fandom tag for completed works. I usually narrow it down by saying I want Steve/Bucky fic and sometimes I further specify that I want hurt/comfort... I first started sorting by kudos, so I got the (supposedly) the most loved fics first - but these days I just see what has been added since the last time I checked and sort by "update date".
Thanks for the link. I read it instead of doing work at my workplace and totally worth it. If you have any more recommendations, please let me know. I see how you might enjoy the story without knowing the movies but I have been hooked on the Marvel Cinematic Universe since The Avengers, then watching Captain America, Thor and Iron Man on DVD and I cannot divorce myself from knowing these characters so it seems odd to me to read stories without knowing about them.

But this is an example of one that I read before I saw the movies and enjoyed: http://archiveofourown.org/works/1533116
