Just had to share Brubaker's thoughts on the upcoming Cap 2....OH LORD, TAKE ME AWAY, THE HYPE IS TOO DAMN HIGH.
“It's the best movie that Marvel has ever made,” he told IGN.“The stuff I've seen from it, it also has two of the best fight scenes that I've ever seen on film... It's going to be amazing. It's gonna make a billion dollars. I got to go and be on set for awhile and watch them film and stuff. It was just amazing. I couldn't be happier with how it came out. Yeah, I can't wait for the premiere. I hope to get to actually talk to Robert Redford at it -- I got to shake his hand, but I didn't get to actually talk to him. He's like an honorary Brubaker, because my whole life people have come up to me like, 'Oh, like the Robert Redford movie!'”
“I don’t know how much I’m allowed to say yet, but what I will say is that with everything I’ve seen and the script that I’ve read: It’s the best movie that they’ve ever made,” he reiterated. “I was blown away, being on the set and getting to meet Redford and watching them do this stuff. The movie isn’t a scene-for-scene adaptation of the comic by any means but there is a lot of the comic in the movie. There’s certain moments in the movie where I’m just, 'Sh&t, that’s what I wrote.' I’m really thrilled about it, I could not be happier, honestly. It came out so good.”
“Thank god it has the same name as the book and Marvel is putting out that nice deluxe hardback which hopefully the bookstores will realize that’s the one to push on people. I’m hopeful that this is their new model because say what you will about the Watchmen movie, but they sold a million copies of Watchmen. (And I liked the movie.) I’m thrilled, I couldn’t be happier. I can’t wait for the premiere, to see the final cut of it with all the special effects and everything. I’m hoping to go visit the Russos when I get back down to L.A. and see some more stuff. Everybody there has been amazingly supportive and I’ve become friends with the screenwriters, so it’s really great. Actually where I live — I have a house in L.A. and a house in Seattle — our L.A. house is walking distance to Marvel now... they moved to the Disney lot, so it’s kind of crazy. I’ll walk over and look at stuff if they’ll let me. I have found a way to get into the Disney lot without ID. (No, no I haven’t.) Or an appointment! (I wish.)”
