I'm really excited to see where the MCU goes from here now that SHIELD is no more. I never would of thought they would do something as crazy as that, but thats what makes the MCU great.


You know, I want to be shocked by it, but the Guardians move is still kind of ballsy. I can see them succeeding at something like this.

I also think it's good to play that arc out, especially for Cap, and have him move beyond SHIELD.

quote:

Also, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch look fantastic in the short time we see them in the after credit scene. Age of Ultron is setting up to be even better than the first.


It's going to be different, that much is true.

quote:

Overall I thought this movie was fantastic and is by far the best stand alone Marvel movie.


Yup.

And I really dug both the Winter Soldier and just the heavy dose of action this movie brought. As good as the rest have been, there was something more grounded and intense about the sequences in CA:WS. And Bucky was a fantastic villain to use. I didn't like him as much as Loki, but he's certainly a character to watch as we move forward.

Evans is on for 6 films. He'll be on his fourth. Cap 3 is already green-lit. I wouldn't mind Stan for a couple of films, but the MCU needs a Steve Rogers, sadly to say, even if it isn't Evans.

I too thought it was the best of the standalone movies.

I really liked the first CA and this one exceeded my expectations. Chris Evans was great in his role, trying to remain the moral compass even though everything and everyone around him was breaking down.

I was surprised we got the 'teaser' trailer of GotG in front of Winter Soldier. As a non-comic reader, I feel they are not marketing that movie well at all, and have a feeling it is not going to do well at the box office.

I think the reason why I like CA so much is he is grounded (literally and figuratively). Thor is so fantastical and while it's great (an my wife loves the eye candy), it's not as relatable.

And Iron Man is just played out. Great first movie but the next two were sub-par to put it kindly.

Winter Soldier was fresh, and built nicely upon the first one. Also, of the phase two movies it was the only one that really moved the story along globally. IM3 was Stark's personal journey and Thor 2 you got another infinity piece, but CA really feels like it moved the chess pieces around the board significantly.

I agree with this, but I think that Marvel is going to wait to recast everyone later on in Phase 5 or 6. Why recast one at a time each phase when you have such a large database of characters to use in the near future. They should recast Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Black Widow, Thor, etc. (All big names going strong right now) within a year or so of each other, because all of their contracts should be up around the same time. At least thats what I would do if I was Kevin Feige

Speculation that Cap 3 is the last Evans film. It may follow the Death of Captain America arc, and have Bucky take up the mantle.
