Just came out of Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The movie leaves open a lot of questions; it certainly has me hungry for seeing more stuff in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And then they cock block us with Guardians of the Galaxy before Avengers 2. I'm sure Guardians is going to set us up for a payoff, but leaving these threads hanging is tough (and I'd say they're even more interesting than the end of Thor: The Dark World).

Marvel Studios is amazing when it comes to writing smart movies that are kind of dumb. I mean that as a huge compliment.

Seriously, Cap looks silly but they manage to pull it off. The level of suspension of belief the Marvel movies create is something magical.

At this point the only way Marvel can disappoint me would be to not have "Hooked on a Feeling" featured in Guardians of the Galaxy.
I think it would have been cool if they cast the same actor as Quicksilver in both Days of Future Past and the MCU. I realize that the way they've worked out the rights the twins can exist in both universes without referring to the other halves of their backstory, but they could have had fun fueling fan speculation.

Super Winter Soldier Spoilers.
Nick Fury's tombstone was the funniest thing on film in the past couple of years.

Hmm, I didn't have that problem, especially knowing I had new PC parts waiting for me at home. I was surprised how late it was when I got out of the movie last night.

See it.

My quickest, worst review ever: If you don't see it, you're being a dick to yourself.
The first showing in Atlanta is part of the Atlanta Film Festival later this week. I'm looking into getting a ticket....

Intense and insane isn't it?
