I don't really mind Bucky not wearing his traditional costume. What bugs me a lot more is the Howling Commandos without Nick Fury. Who leads the unit in the movie? Bucky? Cap? Is there a young Nick Fury in the film at all? Is the Samuel Jackson character a modern-age guy or is he actually several decades older than he looks?
I dig the old Nick Fury. What a character arc he had! He went from being a World War II-era Clint Eastwood in "Kelly's Heroes" to a James Bond-style super suave 60s spy to modern-day super security chief.
Now we're stuck with the Ultimates leather-trench-coat-wearing Shaft version, which I also find to be very cool, but wish he could have just been created as a separate character all together with a different history.
It might be cool if the original "caucasian" Nick Fury appears in this movie and the Afro-American version in the modern-day movies with the explanation that "Nick Fury" is a code name, like "M." That way they won't have to deal with the complications of a near immortal Nick Fury.
