The Cap!

Last night I went with a few friends from work to Captain America! I went mostly just to feed my insatiable need for social activity, but I decided that since most Marvel movies are good, and Captain America was my favorite character to use on Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, what could I have to lose?

Well, I just lost $6.50. I did not consider it much of a loss though, because the movie was pretty great! The only thing that upsets me is that beyond what I've learned from Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, I know absolutely nothing about him! Well, I guess that's not the only thing. I did have one actual gripe with the movie. We had a lot of fun with it, because we were just shooting off one-liners left and right, being the only ones in the theater. However, I feel like if it had not been for my friends, that movie would've hardly been funny at all.

So, yeah it was filled with action-y goodness. Yes, I learned something about Captain America. Yes, it was very nice to see a superhero starting off in another time frame aside from current day, for once. But, I felt the movie took itself a little too seriously at times. If I had to give it a thumbs up rating, it'd approximately range itself around 1.7988746314 thumbs up!

I was also thinking that I definitely need to get my hands on X-Men: First Class. It's one of the few Marvel movies I haven't seen yet, and according to all of my friends, it has been the best so far. And I know it takes place during the Cold War, so that'd be another superhero movie that doesn't take place in present day! I need to get on that!

And one more thing. Jeb, my friend, made us stay until all the way after the credits. Apparently, all Marvel movies, except for X-Men: First Class, have previews after the credits that reveal the next Marvel film! I don't want to ruin it for you, so only highlight this if you saw Captain America, but didn't stay for the preview! It's The Avengers! It looks pretty sweeeet!

Thanks for reading, everyone!
