That’s because it is. All it does is set the stage. And then the Winter Soldier comes in and knocks it out of the park with a dissertation about security and the lengths we will go to, whilst couching it all in a very entertaining superhero movie. Civil War is much the same, continuing until it reaches it ultimate,…

I worked on this movie! I was SO young. I helped build the Bulldog shaped cafe, and I knew Billy Campbell from his Ren Faire days (a very nice and simply alarmingly handsome man). I am so PROUD to have worked on this film, and I am so delighted whenever people express enjoying it.

The montagey-ness of it really disappointed me when I first watched it. I wanted more Cap in WII battles.

A dude with a leather flight jacket, jodhpurs, a retro space-age looking helmet, and a rocket pack, holding a broomhandle Mauser while standing majestically in front of an American flag? Fuck YES. I tear up a little just thinking about it.

Bruce would have come off as too winking and postmodern. You need that character played completely straight.

“The Rocka-who?”

Between this article and the Screencrush article that just posted about The First Avenger, this is a very big day for my very specific love of WWII set, Joe Johnston directed comic book adaptations.

In the end it seems the Nazis didn’t need rocket packs to take Washington.

I love pretty much everything about this movie. Men wearing fedoras firing tommy guns! Jennifer Connelly! Nazi Jetpack Propaganda Cartoons! Timothy Dalton in full smarm-mode! Jennifer Connelly! That bit where the FBI agent and Paul Sorvino suddenly realise they’re both shooting at Nazis together! Zeppelins! Zeppelins…

The Rocketeer was one of the best superhero movies ever. Fight me.

If I am not mistaken, every movie he was in was nominated for Best Picture.

Pacino’s downward spiral of acting performance seems to be directly tied to the lack of talent around him. His discussion of Cazale makes me think he is a collaborative actor that feeds off the extreme talents of his supporting cast, which he had in spades with the first two godfather films, DDA, Glengarry, and his…

One of my favorite Al Pacino scenes is one where he doesn’t even say a word. In the restaurant scene in the Godfather he comes back from the bathroom with the hidden gun and sits down. The look on his face betrays the uncertainty and panic running through his head. He’s about to cross a line that he’s never crossed…

Yeah, I was fairly late to BuB, and was slightly stunned by it. I’d expected The Philadelphia Story and got Duck Soup.

Pulp Fiction probably suffers a bit from the same syndrome as The Matrix or even Clerks, in that it was so influential that when you look back at it, it seems full of cliches. But it was the movies that emulated or parodied these films over and over that turned them into cliches. No fault of the originals.

You seem so badass dude.  Tell me more about your how scared you are that you need to own a bunch of guns.

You know the best part of Kevin Smith. The fact that the guy seems game to just show up in any and all kids TV shows that ask. It’s him, Jack Black and Patton Oswalt who just seem to love to show up on PBS, Nick, Netflix and Disney shows. Sometimes parodying themselves and sometimes just random weird dudes.

Fuck. They don’t call it “the widowmaker” for nothing. He’s not exaggerating that he’d be dead were it not for some very prudent choices.

Yeah, and I’m wondering how long it will be before various overlords decide that there’s too much redundancy between A.V. Club and the other former Gawker sites, and this site ends up just being write-ups of hipster music, movies about gay cowboys eating pudding, and newswires about Trump’s latest asshattery (that…

The one thing I’ll never doubt about the Tick is the title chsracter’s sincerity.
