Work, please stop interrupting my effusive, ebullient, EMOTIONAL ramblings about Captain America: The Winter Soldier! I woke up TWO HOURS EARLY this morning BECAUSE I COULDN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT IT (hence the super early post from earlier). So uh, there is a lot of flaily capslock under the cut that nobody else is going to be able to enjoy until

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY ARE NOT ALREADY MAKING HER A MOVIE AFTER THIS MOVIE IT WAS CLEARLY A FUCKING SETUP FOR A SOLO MOVIE.
(I'm not crazy, right? His fake tombstone said something about "The path of the righteous man" and Ezekiel 25:17, right? Because he will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee. Ahem. Or maybe I was just seeing that because I wanted to?)
Nope, totally there! It was cute.
"AW HELL NO THEY DID NOT JUST KILL THE BLACK MAN."
They killed the Latino instead!
Even Sharon, who is a baby badass in the movie, which I think fits much better with both the casting (Emily Van Camp looks like she's 16! Or possibly I am just old.)
They didn't even mention her last name, right? Guess they're saving that business for the next movie.
I really wanted her to shoot Rumlow in the face
IMDb listed him as Crossbones so I was waiting for Crossbones the whole movie until I remembered that maybe Rumlow was Crossbones's real name. Looks like he survived, though, so maybe he'll becomes Crossbones in the next movie.
that moment when they're fighting and the mask comes off
Someone in the audience yelled, "Are you ready?" right before the reveal. Heh.
IDENTITY AS A THEME, FRONT AND CENTER. THANK YOU AND GOOD NIGHT.
OH HEY DO YOU LIKE IDENTITY AS A THEME BECAUSE I DO TOO. OH HEY BY THE WAY YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE BUCKY AT THIS POINT DO YOU. CAPTAIN BUCKY IS LIKE MY FAVORITE THING AND I DON'T WANT STEVE TO COME BACK.
AND THEN STEVE REPEATS IT BACK TO HIM WHEN BUCKY IS KILLING HIM AND STEVE WON'T FIGHT BACK. (It is all very yellow crayon
Yeah, heh, it elicited laughter in my audience.
There's a surprise Garry Shandling cameo that throws Iron Man 2 into a whole new light!
Oh! I forgot that he was in that! Because, you know, Iron Man 2.
- The fight scenes are amazing. Everything looks fantastic. I just totally had my mind blown.
My GOD the fight scenes. I hope those stuntment were paid well.
- I love that Steve's posse of agents is Natasha, Maria, and though he doesn't know it, Sharon, plus Sam. Steve and his angels. Oh god yes.
I really hope they continue with the storyline and kill Steve and then Captain Bucky and all Steve's friends keep the peace in his wake.
Though I guess we also got the identity of the Clairvoyant - it was the algorithm Zola built, right?
Oooh! Maybe maybe. Also I thought Alexander Pierce was Red Skull and he wasn't but I totally did not call Arnim Zola because I watched the movie before I knew who Arnim Zola really was and his appearance here is perfect and totally in line with how he works.

I KNOW! AND YET STILL NOT PART OF THE SLATE. WHAT THE HELL MARVEL?
They killed the Latino instead!
I feel like if I had to choose between Sitwell and Maria Hill being Hydra, they made the right choice. *hands*
OH HEY BY THE WAY YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE BUCKY AT THIS POINT DO YOU.
I have a lot of appreciation for how much you love Bucky, because I love him at levels that nearly approach how much STEVE loves him.
I really hope they continue with the storyline and kill Steve and then Captain Bucky and all Steve's friends keep the peace in his wake.
I would love to see Bucky Cap on screen, but I don't know if I could handle losing STEVE.
