So far the only one I want to see is Captain America. I love Karen Gillan and Johnny Depp but neither one is enough to make me want to see the movie they have coming out. Speaking of Captain America, I still need to sit my ass down and watch the first one.

I want to get high, go to Heaven is For Real, and make incredibly obnoxious comments and laugh at the movie.

Bears!

I saw Under the Skin. It wasn't that good. I haven't read the book, but I have an inkling that it could be ten times better on sheer fact that it has a lot more detail and backstory. It was interesting listening to the Q&A from the director of the film about how the original film would have been more expensive, but included more backstory about the main female antagonist and the main male antagonist who was only seen a short bit for the film and really didn't make sense. The film did at least have really good sound design. Nothing in April I really want to see except for what I Under the Skin and Captain America, which I'll be seeing on Saturday.

I got to see trailers for both movies when I went to see Noah. Bears look like it's going to be good. Jinx, I wish to join you. I'd need some drugs to sit through that movie because watching the trailer was painful enough. I was ready for the flood to come and wash away all life on Earth.

The Winter Solider is the only one I've seen, and intend to see, out of this month's releases. Good film - solid action, engaging characters, believeable dialogue and wit. Also, a clever Pulp Fiction reference which I won't spoil here, but had me IRL LOLing in the cinema.

Just remember to stay for the eleventy post-credits scenes.

But most importantly, this film recognises the importance and majesty of Tim Tams, for which is deserves to be praised with great praising.

Then there's also the ground-breaking, unprecedented scene where a defibrillator is used properly for the first time in cinematic history: to treat someone whose heart is fibrillating rather than stopped. It's as though they actually paid attention to their scientific advisor or something.

I've heard Winter Soldier is better than The Avengers. Yes, no?

Your mileage may vary. Some people seem to like it just as much - my fiancee enjoyed it *more*, 'cause she truly loathes Joss Whedon's directorial style. Others have been more critical. The pacing's slower, which I personally like, but the action set-pieces are big and frequent enough that the story never drags or becomes boring.

I think some US audiences are unhappy with it for the same reason they grumbled about Iron Man 3 - because mild spoilersome of the threat comes from within, i.e. from powerful Americans, rather than the traditional evil aliens or dirty foreigners. But if you don't mind a film that isn't 100% flag-waving jingoism, then that shouldn't hinder your enjoyment at all.

I just got back from Captain America: The Winter Soldier. It was pretty fantastic, 110% better than The First Avenger.

This excites me. I still need to sit down and watch the first movie before seeing this at the cinema.

I loved The Winter Soldier. It pleases me that they made a good Captain America movie because he is my favourite Avenger.

I've heard Winter Soldier is better than The Avengers. Yes, no?

Not that that's saying much. The Avengers was terrible.

In my biased opinion.

This is a place of welcoming, and you should just get the hell out.

I like how you contradict your own post. But why should I get out? Because I have an opinion that differs from yours? I thought that was the whole point of forums, to discuss differing opinions on varying subjects. Or are we all supposed to enjoy the same things?

I can't even imagine telling someone to "get out" because they don't feel the same way about something I do. What childish nonsense.

It was a joke, that's why the contradiction was so obvious

It's also an Office quote
