It took us five movies to reach the First Avenger - let's see if he was worth the wait! In advance of Friday's upcoming video, these are the straight-off-the-dome fresh thoughts from Red and Blue's Marvel Phase 1 full watch/rewatch! Watch this space - ONE more to go!

So, having lodged my dislike of Civil War, one thing that y'all point out (and was pointed out by implicitly Pretentious in a supercut) was how Tony and Steve are made to be foils for each other. And I totally agree with that. I don't have much to say that hasn't been said by others, so I'll just suggest this: the climax of their conflict should have happened in Infinity War, not Civil War. And it didn't because the MCU was overstuffed by that point already. If this re-watch ever gets there, I might share some of my ideas on a more Steve-focused Cap 3 movie, but I dunno if that kind of thing is worth doing much when it's a good decade in the past now.

Late to the party, but I found the Tumblr post Red mentioned regarding Steve's analysis of the "nurse" when he woke up in the present day. Honestly, it completely reframes Fury's cleverness and paranoia, which is critical if he's going to be a tentpole holding up SHIELD in the Avengers. A very cool read, and an extremely skillful job by the costuming department that worked on the scene. https://www.tumblr.com/metacinematicuniverse/140231616881/kk-maker-2spoopy5you-lohelim
