happy easter to them what celebrate it, and to them what don't, a very lovely sunday. hopefully a very lovely spring-like sunday.

today i went to see catws again - well, after i locked myself out of my apartment, which i discovered when i couldn't get my car door open >.< - i don't think i caught anything this time that i missed the first time -

yeah, that's rumlow. the first time i saw the movie i thought it might be bucky, but that doesn't make any sense, altho i'm surprised rumlow survived the building being rammed by that helicarrier. i wonder if this means he'll be back in a future movie. (i didn't know he was in the comics but that would make sense.)

>>but overall he just seemed like someone who's disconnected with the world around him and hasn't found his footing/a real place and he was using the job/SHIELD for that<<

yes! that! i think he's adjusting - he's definitely trying - but he hasn't quite gotten there yet, and working for shield and being captain america gave him a purpose and a place in the world. and then he finds out that actually, no, he's been working for hydra pretending to be shield, at which point his anger grows to this organization-destroying thing. but before that? he was really pissed off at fury, and i think he was mad at natasha for not coming clean about her mission on the ship, but that seemed to be kind of it.

sam was fabulous. i really, really like him. (also, from the bits i've read about anthony mackie, he is ADORABLE. and so excited to be in the movie.) he's really good for steve because like you say, he has similar combat experiences. and steve tells natasha that he doesn't date partly because he's not going to find someone with shared experiences. but there are things he went through that sam understands, and also sam is a normal guy totally rooted in the current age in a way steve isn't, and as such he can help steve adjust to not only civilian life, but civilian life in the 21st century. and he wants to help! and, you know, he kind of does that for a living. he can treat steve like just another veteran, rather than ~captain america~. and they can be friends. and it can be lovely.

Yeah, I thought they did a good job of Sam being slightly awed by Steve (because CAPTAIN AMERICA) but being able to still see past that and see the guy behind the shield and stars and stripes and whatnot. I really liked the scene at the VA for that. Sam opening up because he knew Steve needed to see other people hurting too and all that.
