The 35th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe marks the first Captain America film in the MCU without Steve Rogers as the titular character.

Musings on Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)
I wasn't going to blog about Star Wars as I didn't think I'd have time before my East Coast trip on Tuesday. But you know what, I can't help it. Hubby and I actually watched the original trilogy a few weeks ago, just to refresh my memory as I barely remember any of the story. …
