Saw the movie on Friday night -- great flick! I'm even more tempted now to pick up the collected Winter Soldier issues of Cap, although that's also based on the high reputation of Brubaker's run on Cap. Anyhow, this is two excellent Captain America films in a row, three if you count the Avengers.
Can't say enough about this movie. Biggest BIGGEST thing I loved about the movie is Marvel Studios layering of Marvel history in the story. There were quite a few times I went, Yeah, and then other times I went, Ooooh Yeah.
To the other side of the coin - the thing I can NOT understand is why a person would pay for the movie, watch the movie and then WALK OUT WHEN THE CREDITS STARTS!!!!! People!!!! Is it that you can't learn or you won't learn???

Welcome to the Bronze Age Babies.
We hope you'll find the conversation stimulating. Not only will you be able to participate in the day's discussion, but don't hesitate to journey into our archives and visit almost 2300 posts on all manner of pop culture.
We hope you enjoy our community. Please be aware that this is a TROLL-FREE ZONE. We'd appreciate if combativeness, prejudicial or racist statements, and general surliness be taken elsewhere. Here, we are free to hold an opinion and to be asked to argue for it -- but all in a spirit of respect.
Karen and Doug met on the Avengers Assemble! message board back in September 2006. On June 16 2009 they went live with the Bronze Age Babies blog, sharing their love for 1970s and '80s pop culture with readers who happen by each day. You'll find conversations on comics, TV, music, movies, toys, food... just about anything that evokes memories of our beloved pasts!
Doug is a high school social science teacher and division chairman living south of Chicago; he also does contract work for the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. He is married with two adult sons.
Karen originally hails from California and now works in scientific research/writing in the Phoenix area. She often contributes articles to Back Issue magazine.
Believe it or not, the Bronze Age Babies have never spoken to each other...

The Prowler (wondering how he got popcorn THERE).
I'd STILL prefer Sam wilson in his original 'cool, baby' gold and green outfit, but I guess I'm juuuuust a purist.
My nephew really enjoyed the new flick, so I may have to put it on my list to see.
Hey guys, tomorrow's post is going to be a Discuss on the new Cap film, so you may want to hold your comments til then!
