Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Just got back from seeing it. Thought it was okay. There was a
quick Stephen Strange name drop that made me smile.

I saw it a few days ago and really loved it. I know the Marvel
movies aren't the most amazing movies ever made but I find them
really entertaining which is all I really expect from them so I
was satisfied.

^Exactly. Thats all I really ask for when I go to see a
Super-Hero/Comic Book movie. It was definitely entertaining and
I really liked Winter Soldier, but I wasn't blown away by it.
Marvel really does do an amazing job at name drops and easter
eggs though.

I thought it was awesome. Up there with the first Iron Man and
The Avengers. I like how it continues from both Avengers and The
First Avenger. It had some pretty excellent action scenes and
some cool twists. And that mid-credits scene got me excited.

That middle scene confused me.. [spoiler]aren't Quicksilver and
Scarlett Witch supposed to be in the new X-men movie too?? I
thought Fox had all the rights for Marvel mutants.. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Quicksilver is in Days of Future Past played by Evan
Peters, but his character arc in Age of Ultron with Aaron
Taylor-Johnson is different and they won't make the connection.
And my friend pointed out that it's gonna be tough to mention
that Magneto is his and Scarlet Witch's dad.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Yeah I looked up the actors and saw they weren't the
same I just didn't think that Disney could use any X-Men
characters but I guess they are allowed to with those two as
long as they don't make the connection to X-Men. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch have just as much history
with The Avengers as they do with the X-men. This caused some
loophole where they can be used by Marvel Studios, but the word
"mutant" and anything related can't be mentioned. I guess it
looks like they're going with the word "miracles" in the MCU.
Besides, I haven't seen the scene yet, but isn't it implied
Baron von Strucker somehow gave them powers using Loki's
scepter? [/spoiler]

[spoiler]but can't the same thing be said about Spiderman or
some of the other X-Men characters? - Yes it is implied that
they weren't born with their powers but I can't remember if it
was Loki's scepter that was used [/spoiler]

[spoiler]I didn't catch on that Von Strucker used the scepter on
them. They do have Loki's scepter and are performing experiments
with it, but I didn't think HYDRA was using it on Pietro and
Wanda. I also liked the after-credits scene for this, because
unlike the ones at the end of Avengers, Iron Man 3, and Thor 2,
it's not a comic relief moment and it hints at more things to
come.[/spoiler]
