Captain America

Saw the movie over the past weekend. Enjoyed it although I thought the origin story drew on a little long in my opinion. Still I liked the way they went through the evolution of Cap's uniform( The original from the comics being the one he wears as a War Bond shil), The tie in with the Marvel universe, ( We see Tony Stark's Dad Howard at the 1940's Stark Industries Expo mentioned in the Iron man Movies, and meet Nick Fury's "Howling Commandos" One of my favorites when I was a kid) And of couse Stan Lee has a cameo, this time as a high ranking Army Officer.
Now on to the hardware. The Red skull drives what has to be the coolest vintage Mercedes Benz around with six wheels and a supercharged engine that spits fire out the hood ports when the nito system is engaged. Then there is that awesome flying wing! It's gigantic and carries six manned "Suicide Bombs" meant for major US cities until Cap internenes. Hopefully we'll see a FS version soon ;D
All in all I thought Captain America was a good movie like the other Marvel films were, (With the possible exception of Fantastic Four II), and now I'm looking forward to next years AVENGERS.
