Just this morning, the trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier was released to the public. So why don’t we celebrate by psyching ourselves up for a movie not coming out until spring?
Mm. Maybe don’t think about that part. Instead, treat yourself to this beautiful spectacle of a trailer, and then swing back around bask in its glory with me.
“You doing anything fun Saturday night?”
Why, Natasha Romanoff, are you asking what it really sounds like you’re asking?
“Well, all the guys in my barber shop quartet are dead, so, no, not really.”
Steve, honey, turn her down with grace, not with overwhelming guilt.
“You know, if you ask Kristin out from statistics, she’d probably say yes.”
Oh that’s okay then. Setting up the Avenger with the girl in statistics. That’s noble, I suppose.
“That’s why I don’t ask.”
“Too shy or too scared?”
“Too busy!”
Good man. You set those priorities.
You… Wait, can you even do that?
“Was he wearing a parachute?”
“No…
… No he wasn’t.”
But-
You know what? Fine.
But you do remember what happened the last time you dropped from a plane into icy cold water, don’t you?
(applause for the Marvel sequence)
“I joined SHIELD to protect people.”
“Captain. To build a better world sometimes means tearing the old one down…
{In which the best bros go for a stroll}
… And that makes enemies.
Looks like someone took Iron Man’s contemptuous “spangly costume” comment to heart. Steve, normally I would tell you not to listen to your haters, but in this case… you did good.
Are you ready? For the world to see you as you really are?
“The world” played by Nick Fury,
Natasha Romanoff,
and… This dude. Yeah. Welcome aboard, This Dude.
Look out the window. You know how the game works.
Disorder. War.
Do my eyes deceive me, or is that the Winter Soldier’s mop of hair I see?
… All it takes is one step.”
Is that This Dude or Nick Fury on the operating table? Either way, looks like
♪ our trio’s down to two. ♪
(Insert sound byte of Pumba saying “Oh”)
[Excuse me while I frantically try to convince you that I still believe in Clintasha, and assert my belief that this is strictly a bromance]
“We’re gonna neutralize a lot of threats before they even happen.”
Yeah, that never seriously backfires. Nick Fury, have you ever seen a little movie called Minority Report? I think you should watch it and just know that you’re setting yourself up for some really weird stuff, man.
“I thought the punishment usually came after the crime.”
“Yeah, well, welcome to 2014, grandpa.” (scoffs)
I would like to direct your attention to the bloke sitting on the hood of that car on the left. That is all, carry on.
“SHIELD takes the world as it is, not as we’d like it to be.”
“This isn’t freedom. This is fear.”

“You need to keep both eyes open.”
Could you be a little more ambiguous, please?
*awkward elevator music*
“Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?”
Good, diplomatic question. It’s important to get everyone’s opinio-
Come on guys, it was just a question. A “yes” or a “no” will do.
“Boy. That escalated quickly. I mean, that really got out of hand fast.”
I can’t really be angry about the long wait, what with my emotionally overwhelming November movie schedule and all.
Well done, director of this film. I find myself inexplicably wanting to give this scene a hug.
Less so now. And what happened to your American Ninja Warrior outfit, Steve?
{In which the best bros share an attack hug}
Oh, no? Well, that would make more sense.
As firm as I am in my belief that the Black Widow can probably take care of herself, I must say,
can we please get a slow clap for this fantastic gentleman?
Oh dear. Hawkeye missed his cue. I like to think he’s off a yard or two out of frame, gesturing for Cap to hand Natasha over.
THERE IT IS. There’s that sweaty mop of hair we know and love and kind of hate at the same time.
Okay, according to Fury’s expression, maybe it’s just hate.
Or possibly hair envy.
Probably hair envy.
Definitely hair envy.
But maybe with a little bit of oh-he’s-about-to-blow-my-armored-vehicle-half-way-to-Asgard.
Yeah, come to think of it, that was probably a factor.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is how you dramatic.
Rogers wishes he could dramatic. And also that his best friend and, might I add, only living friend had not been brainwashed into becoming the most theatrical villain this side of Loki.
That’s right. Just think about that for a while, and then, when you’ve finished weeping, come on over and I’ll console you. Maybe make some fondue.
“Gear up.”
Who are you to give the Captain orders? Who are you at all?
“It’s time.”
Time to find out who this dude is? Yes?
Yes?
Yes.
Welcome to the big screen, Falcon.
Besides the obvious awesome factor, I have the say my favorite thing about the last two images is how Winter Soldier looks like he’s having a grand old time and Captain America looks like he walked onto the wrong movie set.
the bike is back
The ninja flips are back
the helicarrier is
Oh, that’s a shame.
Yes, my love, I accept you. I am stupid excited right now. Is it spring yet?
But man, this is hurting my heart. STEVE I KNOW HE’S EVIL BUT HE’S YOUR FRIEND
NEVERMIND RUN I’m going to go gorge myself on fondue until it comes out.
