Ye olde Aleksei had some hilarious hot takes not long before 2012 Avengers came out complaining about cut footage, movie's length, how movies under two hours weren't good or popcorn films despite his favorite movie Drive only being 100 minutes long.
I got to say though, the Aleksei stuff was hilarious for how wrong and off the mark he was. Especially when he complained about the length, and the final product turned out to be about 144 minutes.
And honestly, the stuff that was cut from Avengers, I don't miss at all, except the Cap scenes, which I think should've been left in. IMHO they gave his journey a bit more emotional resonance and would've underscored what he lost. The man out of time stuff for Cap is important to me, and I never quite felt in Avengers and the Cap epilogue we quite got enough of the shock of his waking up in 2012.
