Captain America: The Winter Soldier (Extended)

We’ve reached what many consider to be the pinnacle of the MCU, 2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Taking place after the events of The Avengers we again see Steve Rogers adjusting to the modern world and delves into the grey area surrounding his work in the modern day. Also Hydra is back! And a mysterious assassin wearing a mask with a metal arm who may have ties to Captain America’s past! Also Nick Fury does some really cool stuff for what is probably the last time.

Captain America: The First Avenger (Extended)

We’re back with the first Caravan Of Garbage for 2025, Captain America: The First Avenger. In the lead up to Brave New World we take a look back at the first in the trilogy and the introduction of Chris Evan’s portrayal of Steve Rogers. Acting as a prequel in the MCU timeline it takes us back to his battles with the Red Skull and Hydra during the events of World War II. Directed by The Rocketeer’s Joe Johnston and also starring Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes and Stanley Tucci as Dr. Abraham Erskine it managed to lay the groundwork for future installments on top of being an absolutely cracking adventure movie in its own right. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review!
