Thank you for casting Chris Evans as Captain America, despite all of my misgivings.
Thank you for handing Hugo Weaving a role as fucking batshit as the Red Skull, and then handing him an entire continent's worth of scenery to chew.
Thank you for remembering that in war films, people die. A lot.
Thank you for giving the Captain a gun.
Thank you for shooting in 60fps, so that I didn't have to suffer through juddery ass action sequences that I know would look so much better on my home theatre PC, with some simple motion smoothing applied.
Thank you for making Howard Stark even more of a magnificent douche-bag than his son.
Thank you for giving me another dose of Samuel L Jackson.
Thank you for offering up a lovely little teaser for The Avengers.
Most of all, thank you, Marvel Studios, for once again proving how fucking good comic book movies can be.
