Minor Mutations:
Flashback: Captain America: The Winter Soldier(2014)
The sequel toCaptain America: The First Avengercame with some questions, as two brothers heralding from television comedy had taken the directing reins, with rumors stating the movie was going to more in line with a 1970s political thriller. Our doubt was summarily squashed upon the release of this towering titanic-tour de force calledCaptain America: The Winter Soldier! This was based loosely on the recent comic book series written byEd Brubakerand illustrated by many of the greats includingSteve Epting,Butch Guice,Michael Larkand many others. The script byChristopher MarkusandStephen McFeelywas a taut, tight, action thriller, throwing Captain America into politics he never made; revealing a secret evil working right under his nose the whole time. Hail Hydra… not if you are Steve Rogers! With the introduction of the scary assassin called The Winter Soldier, we watch Cap, Black Widow, Nick Fury and a new hero called The Falcon do everything they can to survive! Arnim Zola! The panel discuss their love for Cap’s second outing inWinter Soldier!
