Any geek worth his weight in back issues should know that Marvel Studios officially unveiled a jaw-dropping Captain America: The Winter Soldier trailer yesterday. If you haven't seen it, then by all means, check it out.
Not including serials, Winter Soldier marks Cap's fourth theatrical appearance. Following the slightly embarrassing 1990 film, 2011's spirited Captain America: The First Avenger, and, of course, Marvel's The Avengers (2012). Uncharacteristically, the Internet is positively buzzing about this next installment. So much in fact that I figured now is as good a time as any to shine some light on these three deleted bits of awesomeness I've been sitting on from last year's mega-blockbuster starring the man of the hour.
In the past, writer-director Joss Whedon has mentioned that his initial draft of Marvel's The Avengers focused quite a bit on Steve Rogers. During the creative process -- as it usually goes -- quite a few scenes were yanked from the film. Fortunately, some of them were actually filmed.
In the following three clips, Captain America (played pitch perfect by Chris Evans) gets some dating advice from Stan Lee, repeatedly catches the eye of a NYC waitress (Ashley Johnson), and goes on an alien killing spree. Most of this footage is unfinished, so make like a filmmaker and use your imagination.
