Reply With QuoteMe too! I got the first Brubaker omnibus with this saga, I don't think they'll follow it too closely but it's great the movie will at least be inspired by it. I need to see some Bucky concept art soon!
At SDCC Marvel made some announcements about future movies. Along with Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy the also revealed the name of the Captain America sequal, The Winter Soldier.
Marvel reveals future movie titles
I became a fan of Brubaker's Captain America run beginning with the Winter Soldier arc so I hope it is going to follow that story closely.This evening at Comic-Con International, Marvel Studios revealed its plans for Phase Two of its cinematic universe, announcing titles for the Captain America and Thor sequels, while confirming Guardians of the Galaxy and revealing the first concept art. Director Edgar Wright also showed off test footage for the long-developing Ant-Man.
Lending credence to speculation that the follow-up to Captain America: The First Avenger will borrow from Ed Brubaker’s acclaimed Marvel comics storyline, the sequel to last year’s hit will be called Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Directed by brothers Anthony and Joe Russo, the film opens April 4, 2014.
Helmed by Alan Taylor (Game of Thrones), Thor: The Dark World will arrive in theaters Nov. 8, 2013. And Guardians of the Galaxy is, of course, the mystery release set for Aug. 1, 2014.

Fantastic news! I pretty much figured they would go this route with how much they were walking about this storyline while making the first one, but I'm definitely VERY excited to see a version of it on the big screen! I can't wait to see how they do it.

I figured they'd go this route with the way they treated Bucky in the first movie. Looking forward to it. The Brubaker run (which I used to collect in single issues AND Omnibus... now just Omnibus...) is so great
Not familiar with the storyline outside of Winter Soldier is appareantly Bucky. Not sure how that is going to work, but hopefully the movie is as good as the first one.
Bucky was frozen after the explosion and thawed out by the Russians. I'm assuming they'll do something similar with his fall out of the train.
Is there a target release date for Ant-Man yet?

Based off Brubaker's run...PASS.
Hated it. "Killing" Cap, bringing back Bucky, and replacing Cap with him is almost as stupid as the DC reboot. Brubaker's run is so over rated.
Shame too cause I loved the first movie.
Mars needs women...angry red women.
Eh, I don't know. Brubaker's run has been one of the most successful and lengthiest in Cap's history. I know I for one liked but never really cared about Cap until it.
I've been reading Cap for a good 30 years and its one of my favorite runs.Originally Posted by JonWes
Brubaker did the impossible, he made Bucky worthwhile imho

Awesome but expected given what happened in the movie and knowing the Cap storylines
still awesome
Brubaker is great, it says a lot of a writer when he kills the title character and the comic is still great and sells for as long as it took to bring Cap back. That said, they won't be killing Captain America in the films, and they won't make a faithful adaptation of Brubaker's run, they'll just use Winter Soldier elements as reference to build their unique story.Based off Brubaker's run...PASS.

Their not keeping Joe Johnston is kind of sad. His touch was fun, I hope they don't lose it.
Glad to hear Bucky's return will be covered since it was so obviously set up in the first one. But who's the villain? Arnim Zola's cyborg? A returned Red Skull? Baron Zemo? Out-of-his-mind Bucky? Actually I think Red Skull ought to come back because I liked him so much and I'm not sure they'll be able to top him.
Totally agreed. Brubaker got me reading (and loving) Captain America again after a long time of not reading it, and I loved what he did with Bucky's character. It's one of the few times in comic history that I loved how they brought back a long-thought-dead character, and have enjoyed the character ever since. Definitely one of my all-time favorites now.

I agree. I liked cap before but never really read him until bru started his run and then I was WOWED!!!
I want NA Skeletor and Rio Blast and I want them now!
I grew up reading Gruenwald's entire run, all 130+ issues, and I loved it. Waid's was great too but way too short. I just never liked Brubaker. I know I am in the minority here but that still won't make me like it. It's garbage IMO. I liked Cap when he was a "super hero" not this thing that Brubaker made him into.
Mars needs women...angry red women.
I really hope they keep the same actor who played Bucky in last movie.
Was that ever in question? I thought they'd signed Stan for multiple movies (as opposed to how they handled Howard in Iron Man).
As far as I know he is signed

From Comic Book Resources:
Anthony Mackie Rumored as Falcon in "Captain America 2"
I'm not familiar with Mackie's work, but if indeed Falcon is in the film that makes me happy.According to The Hollywood Reporter, executives have begun negotiations with "The Hurt Locker" actor Anthony Mackie to play the Falcon alongside Chris Evans' Sentinel of Liberty in the sequel to the studio's 2011 hit. Brothers Anthony and Joe Russo, best known for "You, Me and Dupree" and NBC's "Community," will direct.

I don't care what storyline it is taken from, as long as the movie is good. Just because you hated Brubaker's writing of the comic does not mean it is going to be the same in the movie. After all, if Hollywood allow comic writers to write their comic book movies, we would not have had Jonah Hex, Catwoman, Eilecktra, and Ghost Rider. We also would have had incredible movies of Flash, Superman, Green Lanter, Wonder Woman, and Dare Devil by now.
All I really care about is it a good movie and that most if not all the original actors.
