I know that this is an adaption, but come on at least /try/ to do the comics justice! I was expected something quite near to the comics, with all the characters introduced to pull of one of the best comic adaptions in cinema history. The comics are awesome so I expected an awesome movie! Rumlow being killed off so fast irked me, as Crossbones is a pretty key factor in Cap's death at the end of his arc in the Brubaker comics, and Sharon was not nearly included enough, and when I saw little to no romantic interaction between her and Cap, I knew that it was not going to play out like the comics.

I was looking forward to some character development, but there was none. Here we have Bucky, who is an awesome candidate for epic character development, but he had very little. Stark seemed very angry all the time, and they did not really justify his stance on the issue originally. Cap seemed a little out of character. I know he's all about 'freedom' and the 'american way,' but it got on my nerves how little he trusted his fellow avengers. (Oh and yes, Clint's character is still being treated like shit by the writers. Do they even know who Hawkeye is? Where the fuck is that character development?)

I'm confused. Evans has one movie left on the contract, but since they've taken majority of this storyline from Brubaker, would it not be fitting to kill him off in the same way? Also, Sebastian Stan has 6 movies left on his devil's deal with Marvel... which is yet another reason I expected some bigger, world turning stuff. Where's my character development? Where's the plot that is not just an excuse to introduce Parker and T'Challa? Where the plot that is not just an excuse to have some crazy, unjustified action scenes?

Marvel, you just did Winter Soldier, and it is one of my favourite movies of all time, but you have really blown it with this one. What the hell was your budget? You could afford Downey and other big stars, but you could not even find any good writers?
