neutral · AI labelView post →My favourite part of the new Captain America movie is when he tries to extort Wakanda for $500b in Vibranium rights before "ironically" teaming up with Hydra to own the libs.
neutral · AI labelView post →You wouldn’t know it but next Friday Marvel releases a movie starring a black Captain America called Brave New World. I’m sure America is just going to have a totally normal one about it and it will barely justify one column inch…
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s so funny that they’re trying to market the new Captain America film as both “grounded political tactical espionage action thriller” and also “This One Has Red Hulk”
neutral · AI labelView post →I’m watching Captain America: Brave New World and this movie has some shockingly bad exposition, like some of the worst I’ve heard from a big budget live action film in some time
negative · AI labelView post →Captain America* is fun** for everyone***! Marvel's back!**** *actually, before watching Captain America you should watch that six-hour Disney+ series **and also The Eternals, and try to stay awake this time ***and some old Hulk movie, not sure which one ****critics say it's...fine.
neutral · AI labelView post →Im rewatching the first Captain America movie because dammit sometimes you need a story about heroes. In it, the scientist Erskine says, "So many people forget that the first country the Nazis invaded was their own." I mean, dang. That's good writing in any case, but right now? It hits hard.
positive · AI labelView post →The guy who directed Jurassic Park 3 and the first Captain America movie also did this book about a lil Ewok named Teebo and I think that’s neat
neutral · AI labelView post →Captain America Brave New World is a perfectly serviceable action movie that somehow has exactly nothing to say about the fact that Anthony Mackie as Captain America is fighting the President of the United States in the middle of Washington DC. Forget subtext, there's barely even any text about it.
neutral · AI labelView post →I hope everyone supports Anthony Mackie this weekend in going to see the new Captain America movie. It’s actually vital to support a Black Captain America during this time and can’t let it flop
neutral · AI labelView post →ME: Trying to remember which Avengers were in the first movie. Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow…that’s everyone, right SCOTTISH GUY: Och aye ME: Oh right. Easy to forget him though
neutral · AI labelView post →There is nothing brave or new in CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD. It's a tap dancing vision of a Black Captain America. My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social.
negative · AI labelView post →Flying home from Hong Kong, I decided to rewatch "Captain America: The First Avenger". Two things: 1. It's a good movie. Solid story and action. 2. I couldn't imagine anyone else playing Steve Rogers. Chris Evans really nailed it.
positive · AI labelView post →The exact measure of my professionalism: because I hadn’t decided to write about the new Captain America film, I am going a second time to make proper notes. But you better believe I am not sitting through this dull, vanilla mess dry!
negative · AI labelView post →The more I think about it, the more I am amused (derogatory) by the new Captain America film. A movie so cowardly but also so determined to tell a story that does not work thanks to its cowardice.
negative · AI labelView post →Tonight’s Film Selection🍿🎥🎬: Something really fun tonight! Joe (Captain America: The First Avenger) Johnston’s “The Rocketeer” starring Billy Campbell, Jennifer Connelly, Alan Arkin & Timothy Dalton. Like “Cap”, it’s not just a comic book movie, it’s a period piece! #TonightsFilmSelection
neutral · AI labelView post →A movie theatre ceiling collapsed during Captain America and nobody died because only two people were in the theatre. How the hell is this a real thing that happened and not a Half in the Bag bit? Are we living in Mike Stoklasa's head? www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... @redlettermedia.com

neutral · AI labelView post →Of course, the film's weird fictional geopolitics aren't the real problem with "Captain America: Brave New World." The real problem is that Anthony Mackie isn't a movie star.
neutral · AI labelView post →“Captain America: Brave New World” is a movie title that isn’t going to endear itself to many other countries right now.

neutral · AI labelView post →I don't know what Sebastian Stan figured out about his look or acting or what but in the first few Captain America movies he's one of the white guys and now he shows up for five minutes in a modern Marvel film and he grabs the camera and feels like just about the most attractive dude in the world.
neutral · AI labelView post →We watched CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER for family movie night this past weekend. Still such a great, fun movie— gave me the itch to draw Cap again :) Hard to believe we first heard Steve Rogers say “I can do this all day” all the way back in 2011!

neutral · AI labelView post →CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD has a lot of explicit references to THE INCREDIBLE HULK. I looked it up and apparently that film came out 17 years ago. When I learned this, I apparently crumbled into dust and got blown away by a stiff breeze.

I heard that he is interested in your series "Vivian Amberville"... he was even spotted on a beach reading your novel.

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER today with my daughter and it is still the best of the early MCU films. Superheroes work best when their heroics are met with an equal amount of tragedy. This film knows that, doling out death and desolation every time Cap gains a win.
positive · AI labelView post →I'm never gonna make fun of a movie portraying a rise of fictional fascism for being over-the-top ever again. Captain America Winter Soldier was more understated than this.
neutral · AI labelView post →Was lucky enough to see a screening of a previously unseen cut of Albert Pyun's CAPTAIN AMERICA (1990) that is *wildly* different from the theatrical release and the DC. This version is less a superhero film, more of a downbeat 70's political paranoia thriller. Like THE PARALLAX VIEW but with Cap
neutral · AI labelView post →Finally wrote a Substack piece about what has been bugging me since I watched Captain America: Brave New World during its opening week: Why doesn’t it talk more directly about the impact of having a Black man serve as Captain America? loom.ly/PrFlu5Y

neutral · AI labelView post →We are going to go see Captain America Brave New World tomorrow. I understand the Disney boycott but I want to support this black lead superhero film, which we don’t get a lot, made by & staring other POC as well. They deserve this film to do well. Just like The Marvels deserved to do well..

neutral · AI labelView post →Last year they made a whole-ass Captain America movie with a new Captain America and now he’s some guy on the team in the new movie because they just went back to go get the other guy to be Captain America again, how inspiring this must be for the fans!
neutral · AI labelView post →NYC: The extremely rare, official director's cut of Albert Pyun's Captain America is screening on August 1st at Regal Union Square as part of AAIFF. Truly not to be missed, an entirely different film from the one you've seen. www.aaiff.org/aaiff48/capt...
neutral · AI labelView post →i'm still mad this movie had a BLACK CAPTAIN AMERICA FIGHT THE PRESIDENT and didn't do anything interesting with it thematically
negative · AI labelView post →Watching the newest Captain America in the background. I don't like when people call film or TV "Content" This film is Content.
negative · AI labelView post →Did you know the original cut of CAPTAIN AMERICA (1990) was actually *gasp* GOOD? Watch me talk about this new version of the film, and the early misunderstood career of director Albert Pyun , in the new video I just made: youtu.be/Pa2jxE8i1v0

It’s a perfect film for our cultural moment, espousing empty sentiments about unity while upholding the oppressive system. youtu.be/gwuhw5y8fps?si…
neutral · AI labelView post →Doing this in the same week you launch the Black Captain America movie is certainly an inspired PR choice.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just saw a thing that said Brave New World had the second lowest opening weekend of any Captain America movie. Presumably this means it was also one of the top three highest opening weekends for any Captain America movie
neutral · AI labelView post →Also, designer of the Millennium Falcon and director of The Rocketeer and Captain America: The First Avenger. One of the greatest designers in movie history.
