    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.)”

    Well, I didn't think I could be more excited about this movie, but....I'M FREAKIN' MORE EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE!!! ^__^

    Seriously though, I hope Brubaker has a cameo in the movie, seeing as it's his story they adapting.

    Also, while the entire book is great and while I'd love to see the whole thing adapted on film (though I know it won't, which is cool) I do hope this scene is in the movie in some form.

    I thought it would be the best movie too, based on the trailer.

    Lets hope it doesn't disappoint.

    I think this movie has the potential to be better than the first Iron Man and Avengers. Maybe even the BEST comic book movie to date!

    (yes I have that much faith in this movie)

    Double Yes.

    The fact that the movie is based of arguably his best Captain America story to date, on top of him being allowed access to the things like script and the set, I'd be surprised if he weren't in the movie.

    I couldn't be more pumped. This movie is going to set the new standard. I genuinely anticipate that. It's going to be the bar that all future CBM's will have to try and measure up to.

    Same here. This is the one moment that I want in there as well as some variation of the fight from issue 14 where it comes together for Bucky. I'm curious to see how they handle this situation without the Cube.

    C'mon. Did anyone really expect him to say anything bad about it?? Only Alan Moore does stuff like that. Its based on stuff he wrote about a character he really likes, of course he is going to say good stuff about it.

    It might be a minor spoiler, if it comes to pass how I think it might, but we've already seen Cap wearing what appears to be a slightly modified version of the suit he wore in Captain America: The First Avenger. My theory is that at some point, probably after Cap discovers who the Winter Soldier really is, he'll go back to his old costume as a way to try and bring Bucky's memories back. It would make sense as to why he would go back to his old look and be an interesting way to try to get Bucky to remember who he is.

    But I to am curious as to how they Bucky will get his memories back. The Cube was a major plot device in the comics, and while it does exist in the movieverse it doesn't function like the one that was used in the comics. So it'll be interesting to see how they work around that.

    Hmmm. That's an interesting thought. My thoughts about the old suit is that he goes back to it after becoming disillusioned with the current state of SHIELD and ditches the Super Soldier after he fights the agents and goes back out on his own. That'd be interesting if it is part of trying to bring Bucky back. I'm just very excited for this movie and hope that it meets my expectations since it is based on one of my favorite stories of all time.

    First Avenger is still my favourite Marvel film to date and I'm highly anticipating The Winter Soldier. I love Chris' take on Cap and if the film is any kind of epic that the trailer has shown it to be, I'll be the happiest person on the planet.

    Same. First Avenger was my favorite solo movie with Iron Man coming as a close second it. It had a great balance of action and story without making the whole movie a comedy. I have high hopes for Cap 2 as well.

    There couldn't be anything that could get me more excited than this. This is already my most anticipated solo Phase 2 movie, but if it truly becomes as good as has been said, then holy crap this is gonna be awesome.

    @slimj87d: I'm curious to see how Batroc is portrayed I liked how Brubaker handled the character, so I hope he'll be presented as a challenge for Cap in the film.
