Captain America: The Winter Soldier Gets A Rad First Trailer



Cap’s back! Get in here and watch this new Captain America trailer. It’s practically The Avengers 2 already.

Steve Rogers, AKA Captain America, is back in the suit and behind his mighty shield, fighting the good fight.

The plot centres around the Captain and S.H.I.E.L.D agents battling a new “shadowy enemy”. But according to the comics, The Winter Soldier is Rogers’ friend, Bucky Barnes. Barnes fought in World War II with Steve Rogers, and was killed in a plane crash. He was also hurtled into the freezing waters of the North Atlantic Ocean; preserving his body.

The comic story arc sees Bucky found and defrosted by Soviets. He’s given a bionic arm and sent out to do secret assassination and black ops missions for the shadowy government department. Bucky and the Captain eventually meet up, and Rogers conveniently cures him of his amnesia before they begin fighting together again to fend off terrorist attacks.

There are a few details in there that can’t play out exactly as they should because of the events of Joss Whedon’s The Avengers, but it’s awesome to see that this seminal character is back to kick some arse.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier sees the return of Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow, Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury and Cobie Smulders as S.H.I.E.L.D Agent Maria Hill. The freaking awesome helicarrier is also back, and from the looks of it, S.H.I.E.L.D is going to have one hell of a repair bill for that thing. Again.

There’s also an interesting moment in the trailer when Anthony Mackie’s character sprouts mechanical wings to fly off the helicarrier. In the IMDB credits, he’s listed as Sam Wilson, AKA The Falcon. Sweet.

It’s so good to see more depth in the Marvel universe than ever, with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D burning up the small screen while our main heroes continue to enhance their storylines on the silver screen.

Captain America: The Winder Soldier hits screens on 3 April, 2014.

This was a classic story arc in print.

My expectations for the film are low. The first installment was quite poor. That was NOT Red Skull!!!

:nerd emoticon:

Not the Red Skull but I have a soft spot for Agent Smith. Also he was great in V for Vendetta. Just can't hate on him but yes hate on the Character for sure! Still looking forward to this!

Off topic but I want a Civil War Trilogy.

Now you're talkin'!!! ;) That would be awesome and not impossible.

Looks entertaining. I enjoyed the first one.

Just wish Scarlett Johansen would go away. My right shoe can act better than her

I'm looking forward to this and Thor. I thought I'd hate the Captain America movies but the first one was excellent. He was the moral centre, no jingoism, no slavish patriotism. He stood for the ideals he believed in and was uncorruptable. Chris Evans found himself a good role finally. Couldn't stand him in Fantastic Four.

I saw it on opening night. It was AWESOME!!!!!

It is really setting up some fantastic ground work for Avengers and Captain America #3. The next one will be Epic! I am curious to see if they follow the story line in the comics or not.

I watched this with my son over the weekend and I LOVED IT! perfect10.gif

A really cool Superhero movie, full of action. Can't go wrong and better than the first IMO

My friend put it pretty well.

The Winter Solider is pretty good, but maybe too busy for its own good. Amidst all the spectacle, special effects, and 'splosions, there's a much simpler story about a man trying to find the right thing to do.

That being said, it was indeed a fantastic movie. I especially liked the little easter eggs that were put in it, like the Pulp Fiction reference. haha.

I don't plan to include any spoilers, but I have to say I was upset the Winter Soldier simply put a handgun round through the windscreen of the new high-tech assault plane to take out the pilot. lol. becauuuuuse logic doesn't work in movies. haha.

I loved it

I think its the best of the "post Avengers" films out there and am really curious as to how the events in this film roll into the TV show and the next Avengers movie

Bring on The Age of Ultron!
