I hear it’s TERRIBLE. But I’m a fan of the manga and original movie, so there’s really no chance a clunky American adaptation is going to win me over. Well, I suppose there’s some chance. Like... if they had cast that girl from Game of Thrones and Iron Fist... uhh... Jessica something? Anyway, she’s a gorgeous Asian girl who knows karate and shit and would have been excellent.
I like Scarlet too, and she’s cool in those Marvel flicks, but she’s particularly cool in Wntwr Soldier because she isn’t just a pair of oiled up boobs. She has thoughts and motivations and stuff.
Anyway, I just think Winter Soldier is one of those “superhero” movies that actually packs a wallop, and is charged up and badass in a non-superheroey way. WAY better than the depictions of Cap in the first one or his ridiculous stupid spandex costume in the first Avengers (that moment made me ashamed to be a “Cap Guy.”)
Oh hey have you seen UNDER THE SKIN? Such a goddamn amazing movie, with SO much Scarlet in it. I’ll say no more, in case you haven’t seen it. But if that’s the case... SEE IT!
ETA: OK, it’s Jessica Henwick — the girl from GoT who should have been in Ghost in The Shell — and she’s Chinese, not Japanese but still... Scarlet aside, tell me this girl wouldn’t have been a better choice for GITS:
