Wasnt his plan actually to blow up capitols to distabilize the world so with his advanced tech he could take it over easily?

maybe - he would need to spend several years training his "Super soldiers" to actually fight and aim - they were laughable - they should have looked at GI Joe's Minons - they kicked ass.

In the film Red Skull talked really big but was very weak in execution - ended up being a poor version of a standard Bond Villian.

plus the whole we are more evil than the Nazis was a bad idea - better off having the Hydra thing just appear at the end...................

Reminds me of one of the hundred rules of being a super villain. All minions will be trained to shoot a moving, man sized target at one hundred yards. Those who can not will be used as conveniently man sized targets.

In the Star Wars movies Stormtroopers were fairly awful but in the books and RPGs they are quite deadly; plot armor is pretty rough to get around.

Stupid question... That's not a different actor for Cap is it? He looks... Off to me.

it's because he skipped leg day prior to the shooting for the trailers

Im excited for Captain America, because honestly I rather enjoyed the first effort.


Im also looking forward to seeing Thor, Im not looking forward to seeing NAtalie Portman OTOH....ew.

Wo wo wo what godless communism is this?

She's a pretty bad actress and worse yet, she annoys me.

Clearly you did not see Garden State or much much better Black Swan. Wow

never saw garden state, but yeah... Black Swan was a trip

Yeah, she's only won an Oscar. She was great even as a child actor in The Professional. Note that Liam Neeson was nothing to write home about in the Star Wars movies either -- you can't gauge anything from those steaming piles.

She's also a genuine brainiac, which just adds to the appeal.

Personally love Natalie Portman. And I'm looking forward to Thor and the new Captain America. I enjoyed the first of both of their films and the seconds look to be better, unlike Iron Man 2 which was pretty terrible.

I'll definitely be seeing Captain America 2, probably not Thor 2, I find that magical gods and aliens ruin superhero films for me.

Might see Thor if nothing else is playing becuase it looks pretty smash smash but meh. I won't see Captain Boring II.
Unfortunately reviews for The Counselor are really bad.

Wait a second. None of us picked you on Falcon in the trailor?

as the immortal bard once said: "er what?"

Sorry. phone. FAlcon is on the trailer

Yeah, the brief clip of Falcon looked pretty cool, I'm glad they've moved away from his traditional white and red suit, as it wouldn't fit with the aesthetic. Dual hand-machineguns, jumping off a building, and then getting wings and going one-on-one with a VTOL jet... I think this character is going places.

Hopefully, they can avoid sidekick syndrome from taking over (I am optimistic, as Avengers managed to balance the characters well, as did Iron Man with War Machine)

Black Swan SUCKED.... in caps even. The only part worth watching is worth watching in porn. She sucks

.. alright, that was pretty cool.

Yeah, that looked fun.

Heh. Heimdall takes down a Dark Elf fighter with a dagger. He is awesome.

And speaking of awesome, Thor 2 is awesome.

Watched Thor 2 last night

Wow it was good - great hunor, great looking and plot worked.............as good as Avengers in my opinion.

I just wish DC could match Marvels quality in films

Stupid Brits and Aussies...........That sucks :(

Er what sucks?

Thor 2 isn't out in the US yet... for some reason.

YEAH I WANT TO SEE IT!!!!!! :(

Wow thats wierd - I assumed you guys would get it first - isn't that usual for Hollywood films?

Actually, No it isnt, Brits thend to get things first. They use you guys as testing grounds for america, to guage the popularity of a movie. Or atleast they did when movie release dates where a mnth apart.

Ah interesting you learn something every day

We still do it, test market in other places so we get it right here. To target the ads and get the most money out of us.
