    Troy Elric No it wasn’t. The movie was bland. They did the Hulk arc again. Tony was just a plain dick. Ultron was a bad villain. Thor was useless and somehow lost on one on one battles against Ultron whereas Cap and Tony did it a lot better. Black Widow and Hulk was one of the weirdest ships. Hulkbuster vs Hulk was an unnecessary fight and for some dumb reason Hulkbuster won when Hulks unlimited anger should have kicked in.

For one he was one of the very few Cap could count on when his entire new life was shown to be compromised by Hydra in The Winter Soldier. That continues as Falcon stands on his side in Civil War, even when it means becoming a criminal. Still after that he's kept on being at Cap's side, doing covert missions between CW and IW. It couldn't really be more obvious that Falcon is a huge part of Cap's new life, only rivaled by Black Widow.

    Spider-Man would not have entered that fight just because someone asked him to. Spider-Man is not someone's hired gun. In the Civil War comic, he was given a room for thought before he joined Tony's side, and it was primarily because of his difficult juxtaposition at the time and the Registration Act would have affected him personally. Not to mention, he quit Stark's side after things got out of control. His introduction in the movie made him seem inept. Like, "Yeah, Mr. Stark, I'll totally go with you on that German trip and will fight people I don't know personally for you."

Sorry, but I really don’t find it idiotic to get an invitation from one of the worlds greatest heroes to help with an Avengers threat, and not be an asshole about it, as you seem to want him to be. I don’t recall ever reading a Spider-Man comic where say, Captain America asks him to help on a mission and Spidey responds with “why should I flag-head?” In most of them that I remember, he LITERALLY does the same thing: jumps on board almost immediately, excited to work with a world famous hero.

    Great video! I agree with everything you say. I would argue that Civil War takes this characterisation of Captain America even further and does even more amazing things with it, by juxtaposing it to the overarching characterisation of Tony (Over the course of these films Tony learns that he can't trust himself, whereas Steve learns the ONLY one he can trust is himself). It's a beautiful showcase of Sam's undying loyalty to Steve, Steve's undying loyalty to Bucky, and Tony's resentment of the fact that Steve doesn't show the same loyalty to him. And I use their first names here instead of their superhero names, because I think that is what is key to the success of this film. They are presented as people, before superheroes.

    I've always disliked the constant critique that Marvel movies follow the same formula. They simply don't.

    The Once and Future Nerd I would say that they use same structure for their movies, but obviously structure without story is nothing, and story is where Marvel excel at. There's surprisingly so much going on with these characters that it's just amazing. For example, every single time I rewatch Civil War, I find something that I didn't notice before, and that sometimes changes a lot of my initial interpretation of a movie. When I first watched Civil War, it seemed like normal superhero movie and the ending was the only moment where movie gets unique. But now I can see that movie isn't normal superhero stuff, it's the flaws of characters, especially flaws of Cap that drives the movie and leads to that beautifully tragic climax. That movie is fantastic character piece that solely focuses on emotions and psychology of the characters and by the end showcases that these superpowered heroes are just human. I'm just oversimplifying here, and it's just one movie and there's so much more to talk about in it, and so many more movies have these great subtle story beats that make Marvel so great.

    @yorozuyagin-chan65845 жыл бұрын

    My personal favorite mcu movie is Thor: Ragnarok. Aside from the jokes (whick I do think were overused), I like that it perfectly sets up Thor's character for Infinity War. In Ragnarok, we see Thor lose his loved ones. We, and also Thor, don't get to feel much about it because of how fast things are going on. After losing his father, Thor is immediately sent to a world he is not familiar with. Unlike Earth, he doesn't get treated well in Sakaar because he has no friends, and no one sees him as a God. Then, after losing his planet, he doesn't get to mourn as he is already given the pressure of leading Asgard. It is in Infinity War that we, along Thor, realize how much he has really lost. He says this when talking to Rocket, "What more could I lose?." Despite that, Thor is still optimistic, hiding his pain with humor (just like in Ragnarok). He creates a facade around him so that no one will see his weakness. This is an important part in Thor's arc. It shows us how mature he has become since his first solo film. Sorry if this was really long to read.:)

    Damn dude. You are so god damn good at making videos. Winter soldier is probably my favorite MCU film. In my country (Denmark) I generally find that the overblown patriotism of americans, is something we laugh a whole lot at. This mindset really made me despise Captain america growing up (Also Superman for many of the same reasons) - not only that, but I consider CA: The first avenger to be the very worst MCU movie by quite a margin, even to this day. The crazy thing is that despite everything in the world pointing towards me hating Winter soldier, I absolutely loved it. It is such a well made action/thriller and the characterization, as you point out very well, is not only great, but it's fast and effective, making me go from - Not caring about cap at all - going into the movie, to rooting for him 15 minutes in. What the Russo brothers did with Winter soldier is really amazing and I'm glad they're the ones directing Infinity war. You truly make great content Films&Stuff, don't you dare take a half year off again! I will be SO sad :'(

    Agreed, that was pretty damn awesome. I also think they did an amazing job communicating his powers visually. In First Avenger, Cap jumps around like he's on the moon and it looks incredibly stupid. In Winter soldier, his powers feel very grounded, which helps humanize him and create tension in fight scenes. Films&Stuffs comparison to the Bourne films, is something I never considered, but it's very obvious when you think about it. The Bourne films make Jason look amazing, but far from invincible - Winter soldier does the same thing.

The Khalid Khandil mission, that was you?), while Steve focuses instead on the other guy in the picture (Is this Riley?) whom Sam mentioned in passing in the earlier scene in the VA.

It's all about friendship and how these super characters get their motivation not from their victories like run-of-the-mill heroes do, but from their friends and a shared interest in protecting the world. That's what held them altogether after shield fell. And coincidentally today I was talking about endgame with some of my college friends and all they could talk about was the power loopholes and theories that Natasha's weak and even Clint could kill her but I rebutted that by saying 'They're friends, it doesn't matter that one of them's more powerful than the other, cuz they're stronger together.

I am so glad that you brought up the best of the small or quiet moments of non-combat interaction and establishing shots, because the film does such a good job of framing time for them (Cap and Sam, Cap and Natasha, Cap and Peggy), and that's why - even though I love Infinity War - CA: Winter Soldier (and CACW) have a more durable, long lasting impact on me. What a great commentary! PS: I think it would be interesting and memorable if they put a something like the Washington DC establishing shot but post-snap, in A4 to get the throwback and contrast.

    That last line of the video is so true. They made you care about the characters. Some people have even grown up with Stark, Cap and Thor. So the end of Infinity War was, as you so perfectly stated, a gut punch.

    Agree with this completely One of my favourite scenes is one people seem to overlook from the original iron man. When Stark is sitting on the couch watching TV and tinkering with his Ironman arm. He see’s the news about Yinsen’s town being taken over by the terrorists It leads into the very first time stark actually goes out of his way to protect others. It’s the true turning point of him going from I want to stop ‘helping’ people from being hurt “stopping his weapons manufacturing after he see’s they end up in the wrong hands” and gets to I’m going to stop people from being hurt. Actually becoming so driven by what he saw and his connection with Yinsen to put himself in danger to save others and actually become a hero

    I believe that Winter Solider is one of the best action movies to come out in the past few years. It reminds me of Tom Clancy movies from the 90s starring Harrison Ford involving some levity, relationship challenges, and great action set pieces.

    There may have been a formula at one time, but various directors have had fun breaking the formula. Coogler was smart enough to realize that audiences already were introduced to and fell in love with T'Challa during Civil War, so he was able to devote more time to the villain and a cast of amazing side characters. Not only did this shatter the traditional weak villain problem Marvel had, but it altered the story structure, helped to communicate themes, and most importantly made Wakanda feel like a real place.

    In the original Avengers Comics, Cap was frozen in the Mid 40s. He was thawed in the Mid 60s. He was only a "man out of time" for 20 years. When Cap ran into the middle of Times Square, other than the bell-bottoms and afros, little would have appeared to have changed. Men still wore suits and ties. But 70 years on ice? In the film, the first thing he sees is a stadium-sized TV screen with a Japanese logo? Mind-blowing! And in 70 years, men's suits still haven't changed.

    My Favorite MCU Film is Winter Soldier. I always thought it was because how grounded and how relatable it is. Also on how much better representation of Captain America from the comic books they brought on to this film. I really didn't like The First Avenger because it was to watered down like the early Batman films after Michael Keaton. It was not believable that Captain America was this great fighter/soldier or a great leader. So when he took the role of Combat Leader in Avengers, it was sort of forced. After Winter Soldier you see who Cap really is in the comic books. By no means was I a fan of Captain America's comics before the MCU. However, in phase one it seemed that they were coming a bit short with their characters and their "bad asserry". This film hit the nail on the head. After watching this retrospective, man!!! I know now that the subtle ways of developing characters is really why this film stands out. Great work guys. You guys do awesome work.

    First, I loved this video. Two (English major) nits for future reference. You're talking about morals, not morales, but you were saying the latter (accent second syllable). And "I can't OVERsell ..." instead of what you said, "UNDERsell". You're saying the idea is so important, there's no way to over-emphasize it.

    I was surprised how much I liked this film The first one was fine And Civil War was more of an Avengers story (which I still love) But Winter Soldier was the movie that made me understand Captain America as who he is and why he did what he did throughout the story and the rest of Caps story going forward till Endgame

    Or maybe it's just because comics have been doing something right all these and when you successfully translate it into a movie people can experience a level of storytelling that's been crafted over 80 years and boiled down to perfect, but that's just me

    Another great video! One thing that I think Marvel does brilliantly is having the people in the background of scenes react in character to the foreground. In Avengers it’s Tony’s eye roll at Steve saying “I got that reference “. In Infinity War Strange and Wong react appropriately when Tony says “Steve Rogers” is the person to call. In Wakanda when the alarm sounds Steve looks up for the source with confusion. Also I agree with you on the scene. I had a similar conversation with my brother-in-law when he returned from Afghanistan. I hadn’t seen First Avenger. The opening plus Steve saying “don’t hold your breath “ to Fury told me all I needed to know.
