Prediction! Captain America: the Winter Soldier
Shiri’s Prediction: I predict a fair bit of sincerely-sincere dialogue, bromance, brobreak-ups, a fair bit of Chris Evans looking constipated, and Black Widow striking the butt pose approximately every half hour. That said, Cap is shading toward angry and dark, teetering toward my most favoritist morally ambiguous hero type and I like his new suit. There will be cool costumes, many ‘splosions, and, perhaps most importantly, NO NATALIE PORTMAN! I would very much like Nick Fury to yell at someone to get a m-effing something off his m-effing airship, but I fear in that, I shall be disappointed. Still, would rather watch Cap torture himself for a couple of hours than watch tiny men with hairy feet bait dragons for same. I predict I will enjoy, but only need to see once.
Luke’s Prediction: So, like the previous Prediction, I am a bit too close to the source material here. I loved the Winter Soldier (don’t read the spoilers) storyline from the comics and they seem to be playing it pretty close to that storyline. It has Cap in a more spy/thriller mode than straight superhero, which works pretty well. And given the turn around they did in Iron Man III, I am also not gonna believe that the story will be exactly the same. So, like most of the rest of the recent Marvel comics movies I want to see it in the theatre, will prolly watch it on HBO or netflix, and it is mainly a holdover until Avengers II!
