I don't see how it was lifeless at all.

Winter Soldier was fantastic. Oldboy's mind is clearly rotting from all of his inane threads.

Yeah, I'm not understanding that either. It's the best Marvel movie next to The Avengers for me (still haven't seen GotG). It's still one of the bigger surprises of the year since I didn't care for the first Captain America film much at all.

I am calling it now, Guardians of the Galaxy will have crossed the $200M mark by Thursday, August 14th.

When Step Up All In is currently ranked as the best reviewed film of this upcoming weekend, this weekend's box office is Guardians of the Galaxy's to lose.

Winter Soldier was far from fantastic. I left the theater pissed and wanting my money back.

Did you confuse Winter Soldier with Transformers 4? If so, then your statement makes perfect sense.
