Fun fact(s) : The Zola AI says that Natasha was born in 1984 (I think). In the real world, the KGB was officially dissolved in 1991. Was she an agent when she was 7 years old ? And it gets worse, because in the comics the character was introduced in 1964, 20 years before she was supposedly born. The explanation in the comics is that she was actually born sometime around 1928, which makes her only about 10 years younger than Steve. The reason it doesn't show is that she received a Russian version of the Super Soldier serum, which extended her longevity and is also why she can fight someone like the Winter Soldier and survive. It might also explain why she wasn't afraid of revealing SHIELD's secrets, because SHIELD didn't have all of her secrets in the first place.
You are the first female reactor to not notice who the winter soldier was just by taking one look at his eyes. Lol it was nice to get a reaction at the unveiling instead of a “Told you”.
I like to imagine they had to keep reshooting the scene where Fury takes off his eyepatch and says "You better keep both (muthaf****') eyes open" "CUT!" "Man, I said it again, didn't I? ****" "Yes, Sam" "Well, sh**" "Alright, let's do it again aaaaand action!" "You better keep both muthaf-" "CUT!"
The kickboxer supervillain is Batroc the Leaper, a callback to '60s-'70s Cap . Batroc is a Belgian merc who is a master of savate' , a French martial arts form using ballet and kicks. In the comics he also has gadget footgear like razor-sharp ballet shoes for assassination, springing boots for leaping further, etc. He could kick Cap's shield out of the way if thrown at him. While he was written with terrible French dialog that would make French speakers cringe, he was a seriously dangerous guy.
Is it the glitch with his name that he's worried about ? Partly, and partly by what Steve said "This isn't freedom, it's fear". In "The Avengers" we saw the team work for SHIELD, which works for some kind of council. We didn't know who the council was working for, and we still don't. Steve is suspicious because he's seen first hand what can happen when official power is abused, and Fury is worried that he might be right.
That scene in the elevator that then leads to Cap jumping like, 50 storeys to the ground, and then taking down a QuinJet single handed is by far the best sequence Cap ever had. Really shows how slick the guy is.
The blonde neighbor of Captain America who Natasha tried to get Steve to ask out is Sharon Carter AKA Agent 13, who is Peggy Carter's great niece. At the end they showed that she is a CIA agent after the breakup of SHIELD. Also a little kernel of easter egg information at the end of the movie if you look at the inscription on Nick Fury's tombstone there is a reference to one of his early movies that helped make Samuel L Jackson famous.
4:29 That strong fighter is a really strong fighter in real life. It is GSP (George St-Pierre), a famous MMA fighter back in those days. It was nice that they let him stand up to Captain America so well without being a super being. "He [GSP] is widely regarded as the greatest fighter in mixed martial arts history. St-Pierre was a two-division champion in the Ultimate Fighting Championship, having won titles in the welterweight and middleweight divisions." -- Wikipedia
The strong guy at the start with all the kicks is Batroc the Leaper, one of Captain America's enemies from the comics. They don't go into it in the movie, but he's enhanced above normal human abilities, most likely from some black-market experimental procedure to create more super-soldiers like Steve (different countries trying to create super-soldiers has probably been an ongoing thing since the end of World War 2, the Hulk and Winter Soldier being a couple of examples of those projects).
This movie ranks in my top 2 for the MCU. It makes a great spy thriller. SOME NAME DROPPING: -- The bad guy who gave Cap a bit of trouble in the beginning is a comic book villain known as "Batroc the Leaper". -- When stalling for time, Dr. Zola (the computer brain) gave Cap an information dump on what Hydra had been doing over time, including killing Howard Stark and - so he thought - Nick Fury & (soon to be) Steve Rogers. -- Not sure if you caught when Agent Sitwell (Hydra) mentioned the SHIELD Helicarriers would use Zola's algorithm to take down key targets like Bruce Banner & Dr. Stephen Strange.
In the DVD, one of the Bonus Features shows that the catch-up list differed depending on the country that the movie was released in. In the UK for example, the long running British sci-fi show Doctor Who is on the list instead of Star Wars / Trek
Seeing this reaction brought back some good memories watching these movie the first time. I was always excited to see what was coming next. Miss the MCU.
@@aadilshekhi6049 What about Winter Soldier, or Civil War, the first Avengers movie too. From what I heard Endgame wasn't that good too. The best isn't always the favorite, I'd vote Winter Soldier, in terms of writing, acting, action, it was pretty realistic, kinda...
@@victorfatalys1076 Avengers endgame and infinity war and Spider-Man no way home are next level MCU movies so there is no reason to compare because they are super duper hit at box office
"In my opinion, at this point they could use the help of all the other Avengers" - yes they could, but then this would be an Avengers movie and not a Captain America movie.
I know, people keep explaining this as a way to make all the individual movies And I get that I’m saying in the STORY it doesn’t make sense not to call them all in. I, of course, am aware they did this to make more movies.
You said you weren't sure whether you really talked much during the video. You did not, but you fixed it by giving a synopsis of the movie in your closing comments, and then making interesting observations for the rest of your closing. Good save and great reaction video.
Hey Tara? I’d never give spoilers - I won’t even say when it might happen…but maybe, possibly? There’s a 🤏chance u *could* get an answer about Fury’s eye.😉 Lol How’s that for obfuscating? Wasn’t a double negative, more a what…quintuple positive?😃
@@TaraTunesIn Samuel L Jackson plays Nick Fury in the Marvel movies, this one included, but also plays Mace Windu in the Star Wars prequels, which Steve has a note saying he needs to watch. It’s gonna screen with his head a bit…
Tara, since the death of Coulson really upset you, you really, really, really need to watch "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.". I don't want to give anything away, but you will be pleasantly surprised.
Good Morning, My Friend! 🖐 As Excited as We Both are about this one, I bet You're thinking the same thing that I've been thinking all night...Where "Oh Where" is Jen's Robo-Reaction?!? She hasn't Posted any message, but if I had to guess...She must have some major copyright issues, and is still trying to fix it! Hopefully We'll hear something later today...
I resisted for a long time, but eventually gave in and watched Agents of SHIELD. If you liked Agent Coulson, you’ll dig AoS. It parallels the MCU films in a fun way. Give it a look!
Only discovered your channel recently, and have just caught up with your MCU journey. Great so far! The jumping fighting guy, you've already been informed is "Batroc the Leaper". His name is based on the word "batrachian" which is the scientific (Latin?) word for "frog". Get it? Frog = leaper. Nick Fury and SHIELD have been shady from the very beginning. They do something illegal, unethical, unconstitutional in nearly every movie they show up in. The first time we see Fury, he has illegally broken into Tony's house and tampered with his security system. That's called "breaking and entering", and it's a crime. And for what? To talk to him about the Avenger Initiative? Why didn't he just make an appointment with Pepper, or knock on the door, like a civilized, law-abiding citizen? SHIELD apparently doesn't believe in constitutional rights, like the 4th amendment or search warrants or due process.
Tara, you haven't posted anything for a long time, best I can tell. Are you able to come back? I'm sure I speak for many when I say that I would really like that.
@@Tiffinki aww thanks! I would love to come back but I wasn’t getting enough views to sustain the channel unfortunately :( Maybe in the future if can get sone money saved up again!! I’m glad you’re enjoying my videos!!

I was chalking it up to ppl being more familiar with KGB than FSB
"Why is this guy so strong?"
Because he's hall of fame MMA fighter Georges St Pierre. And he's French Canadian...

From "The First Avenger" to THE BEST Avenger...IMO.👍 GO Captain...MY Captain!!
Team Cap
Team Cap, Steve & Co.

Come on, Steve. Stand up and stick it in there...
That's what she said...

All of that was kinda impressive... but taking out Georges St. Pierre was next level.
Disney didn't have the rights to the term "mutants" (Fox owned the X-men rights; Disney has since bought Fox), so the Twins are "miracles".
The blonde neighbor of Captain America who Natasha tried to get Steve to ask out is Sharon Carter AKA Agent 13, who is Peggy Carter's great niece. At the end they showed that she is a CIA agent after the breakup of SHIELD. Also a little kernel of easter egg information at the end of the movie if you look at the inscription on Nick Fury's tombstone there is a reference to one of his early movies that helped make Samuel L Jackson famous.

Winter Soldier is my *favorite* avenger! xo :D
I wasn’t aware he was an avenger?!
This one is as much a spy thriller as it is a super hero movie, and they really hit every mark. Great reaction as always, Tara. 👍✌❤
This movie ranks in my top 2 for the MCU. It makes a great spy thriller.

I did notice your last point! I thought it was odd because they haven’t mentioned Dr. Strange before this.. so it seemed out of place to me
Amazing all the Hollywood legends who end up in the MCU. Jeff Bridges. Anthony Hopkins. Robert Redford.
Apparently Harrison Ford is coming in, too. He'll be replacing the late William Hurt as General Thaddeus Ross, aka "Thunderbolt", aka Liv Tyler's dad.
25:58 Phrasing! Are we not doing "phrasing" anymore? 😂

This is the MCU film that (to me) REALLY kicks things I to a higher gear. From here on out, buckle up.
fury lost an eye by playing with a cat and she scratched him😂
Wonderful reaction as always Tara. I always enjoy your reactions 🥰
My Top 5 MCU movies has about 8 or 9 movies in it depending on what day it is😂 but this movie never gets bumped out it will always be top 5
First - welcome back. And yes, this MCU movie was a good one. Nice after talk as well.
Tara, did you hear the Baron at the very end, nothing is as horrifying as a miracle
Great reaction, Tara. Yes, it's full of plots and subplots, it's a great story, it sets up a lot to come up.
the cool bit is that the series agents of shield had ro deal with the events that transpired in this movie.
Best speech ever ❤
this is my 2nd favorite mcu movie after the 1st black panther
Seeing this reaction brought back some good memories watching these movie the first time. I was always excited to see what was coming next. Miss the MCU.
One of my favorite MCU movies. An amazing political thriller that happens to have supers.
Video's subtitles: "...Bruce Banner Steven strange..."
Me: _Grinding teeth_
Far and away the best Marvel movie to date. Period. Even better than Infinity War and Endgame which were superb
One of the best MCU movie🔥🔥🔥🤩🤩🤩
Maybe the best one, too bad it will never happen again now, well it was ten great years 😉
@@victorfatalys1076 the best MCU movie is obviously Avengers infinity war and Avengers endgame and Spider-Man no way home

Next Reaction film Starship troopers (1997) 👍👍
The movie that introduced Falcon and the Winter Soldier...
A very great movie
