I thought TWS was a tightly written and played film. It was as close to perfect a Cap film for me as possible without leading an actual Avengers team consisting of the heavy hitters.

The final fight worked because it wasnt about "Cap vs Bucky". It was about Cap trying to bring his best friend back and make him remember who he was.
BUT... I will say, eventhough it was a great fight, i still feel like the Cap vs Bucky fight on the street in the middle of the film DEFINITELY could have been longer and more brutal. Ive watched that fight several times now and i keep wanting more out of it. Again, its a great fight but it goes by very quickly. Personally, i think it wouldve been perfect to see Bucky take Steve, Widow and Falcon on all at the same time just to show how unstoppable he is. Sort of like how the Green Ranger took on all 5 power rangers at the same time and wiped the floor with them (i know, odd comparison lol).That wouldve been a great layer to add to the fight.

I was a bit disappointed in MCU Cap, particularly in Avengers, until TWS where they showed what I was asking for and exactly why Cap is a heavy hitter up there with the big 3 and worthy of leading them all. And finally a great suit, super-agility and combat moves and a great film within which to showcase it all.

Whedon should have used Caps physicality better in Avenvers, but I have no doubt he'll resemble TWS version of him in AoU. Especially since the same choreographer was hired. The way I see it is all being a progression.

Yep. Whedon did a great job on Avengers and Cap is one aspect that TWS proves can be improved on. I can't imagine Whedon not wanting to carry over and even further improve all the things he sees as done better in TWS. He's a smart guy.

And also, Cap's goal is to stop the helicarriers from killin' the potential threats around the world and gettin' WS to remember his identity while WS's main objective is to kill Cap and prevent him from takin' down the helicarriers. These goals from either part are pretty tough to accomplish. So, the final fight should have been tougher, longer and filled with more tension. Agreed. And I think he will make it even better than the russo's. Last edited by Ryu_do_Sen; 09-02-2014 at 09:47 PM. |

Also, I'm not criticizing people who liked the ending. I'm just tryin' to know what they feel about that ending and discussing it: if it makes ou doesn't make sense with the movie, as a whole. As for your point, I do agree on the whole thing of cap stopping to fight just to reach WS's true self. It does makes sense. But, again, the showdown before that should have been bigger because WS is a formidable foe - as we are led to believe - and Cap knows he has beat him to take down the helicarriers that will kill millions of people around the world - and at the same time rescue him for his own reasons. It's like an impossible task to accomplish. It was just too easy and too fast. Last edited by Ryu_do_Sen; 09-02-2014 at 10:55 PM. |

Sigh... |

I agree that Marvel does not really have amazing climactic 3rd acts. For me, the best one so far is from The Avengers. That's one of the reason that it stands out from the other ones.

Yes, Steve is fighting on two fronts at the end, to take down the carriers and to subdue the WS without killing him but his first priority is to save lives so he can't be playing cat and mouse with Bucky for too long which is why he breaks his arm and chokes him out. He wants to save Bucky but he won't let thousands or millions die for him. He'll sacrifice himself but not others. I think this all plays out wonderfully. I hope Whedon can do as well with Caps physicality and fight scenes but so far The Avengers has been the weakest of the three Cap appearances in that regard. The Russos like Evans were very interested in exploring and beefing up that aspect as opposed to Whedon who referred to Cap as one of his "punchy, kicky" characters. I also really liked how the Russos did BW's fight scenes - using her intelligence, weapons and fighting moves specific to her strength and skill set instead. |

So where do you guys go for your Marvel movie gifs? I'd love to find somewhere that has a ton of em for each movie. Like maybe a dedicated tumblr page or something?
