Captain America: The First Avenger


 * [first lines; in the Arctic]
 * Search Team Leader: Are you the guys from Washington?
 * SHIELD Tech: You get many other visitors out here?
 * SHIELD Lieutenant: How long have you been on site?
 * Search Team Leader: Since this morning. A Russian oil team called it in about eighteen hours ago.
 * SHIELD Lieutenant: How come nobody spotted it before?
 * Search Team Leader: It's really not that surprising. This landscapes changing all the time. You got any ideas what this thing is exactly?
 * SHIELD Lieutenant: I don't know. It's probably a weather balloon.
 * Search Team Leader: I don't think so. You know we don't have the equipment for a job like this.
 * SHIELD Tech: How long before we can start craning it out?
 * Search Team Leader: I don't think you quite understand. You guys are gonna need one hell of a crane! [as the shot widens we see a massive frozen ship revealed] [after breaking into the metal aircraft & finding the frozen shield of Captain America]
 * SHIELD Tech: Lieutenant! What is it?
 * SHIELD Lieutenant: My God! [into his earpiece] Maj, give me a line to the Colonel.
 * Voice from Earpiece: It's three a.m., sir.
 * SHIELD Lieutenant: I don't care what time it is. This one's waited long enough. [1942 Norway; after breaking into the tower]
 * Johann Schmidt: It has taken me a long time to find this place. You should be commended. [to one of his soldiers] Pick him up. [one of the soldiers helps the tower keeper to his feet] I think that you are man of great vision. And in this way we are much alike.
 * Tower Keeper: I am nothing like you.
 * Johann Schmidt: No, of course. But what others see as superstition, you and I know to be a science.
 * Tower Keeper: What you seek is just a legend.
 * Johann Schmidt: Then why make such an effort to conceal it. [opens an old tomb and picks up the glass cube from the skeletal remains of an old Viking] The Tesseract was the jewel of Odin's treasure room. [he turns to face the tower keeper and deliberately drops and smashes the glass cube] It's not something one buries. But I think it is close, yes?
 * Tower Keeper: I cannot help you.
 * Johann Schmidt: No. But maybe you can help your village. You must have some friends out there. Some...some little grandchildren perhaps. I have no need for them to die. [referring to the carving of the tree on one of the tower walls] Yggdrasil, the tree of the world. Guardian of wisdom and fate also. [he presses a button on the carving of the tree and it opens up to reveal the real cube] And the Fuhrer sends us for trinkets in the desert. You have never seen this, have you?
 * Tower Keeper: It's not for the eyes of ordinary men.
 * Johann Schmidt: Exactly. [he closes the box containing the glowing cube and turns to his soldiers] Give the order to open fire.
 * Tower Keeper: Fool! You cannot control the power you hold. You will burn!
 * Johann Schmidt: I already have. [he shoots and kills the tower keeper] [as Steve is standing half naked in front of the doctor to examine him for enlistment]
 * 4F Doctor: Rogers. What did your father die of?
 * Steve Rogers: Mustard gas. He was in the hundred and seventh infantry. I was hoping I could be assigned...
 * 4F Doctor: You mother?
 * Steve Rogers: She was a nurse in a TB ward. Got hit, couldn't shake it. [the doctor looks at Steve's file which shows he has a long list of health issues]
 * 4F Doctor: Sorry, son.
 * Steve Rogers: Look, just give me a chance.
 * 4F Doctor: You'll be ineligible on your asthma alone.
 * Steve Rogers: Is there anything I can do?
 * 4F Doctor: You're doing it. I'm saving your life. [getting beaten in an alley by the loud jerk that was disturbing everyone at the cinema]
 * Loud Jerk: You just don't know when to give up, do you?
 * Steve Rogers: I can do this all day. [and attacks the guy again] [after saving Steve from getting any further beatings by the loud jerk]
 * James Barnes: Sometimes, I think you like getting punched.
 * Steve Rogers: I had him on the ropes. [picks up Steve's enlistment form from the ground]
 * James Barnes: How many times is this? [reading from the enlistment form]
 * Steve Rogers: Did you get your orders?
 * James Barnes: The one-o-seventh. Sergeant James Barnes. Shipping for England first thing tomorrow.
 * Steve Rogers: I should be going.
 * James Barnes: Come on, man! It's my last night. Gotta get you cleaned up.
 * Steve Rogers: Why? Where are we going?
 * James Barnes: The future. [he hands him the newspaper he was holding, Steve opens it to see the ad for World Exposition] You're about to be the last eligible man in New York. You know, there's three and a half million women here.
 * Steve Rogers: Hell, I'd settle for just one.
 * James Barnes: Good thing I took care of that. [he waves to the dates he's lined up]
 * Steve Rogers: What did you tell her about me?
 * James Barnes: Only the good stuff. [addressing the audience at the World Exposition fair]
 * Howard Stark: Ladies and gentlemen, what if I told you that in just a few short years, your automobile won't even have to touch the ground at all. [the female helpers take the wheels of the car on stage] Yes. Thanks, Mandy. [addressing the audience again] With Stark robotic reversion technology, you'll be able to do just that. [he turns on the switch of his machine and the car starts to hover off the ground] Holy cow! [the robots making the car hover suddenly malfunction and the car falls back on stage] I did say a few years, didn't I?
 * James Barnes: You really gonna do this again?
 * Steve Rogers: Well, it's a fair. I'm gonna try my luck.
 * James Barnes: As who? Steve from Ohio? They'll catch you. Worse, they'll actually take you.
 * Steve Rogers: Look, I know you don't think I can do this.
 * James Barnes: This isn't a back alley, Steve. It's a war!
 * Steve Rogers: I know it's a war. You don't have to tell me.
 * James Barnes: Why are you so keen to fight? There are so many important jobs.
 * Steve Rogers: What am I gonna do? Collect scrap metal...
 * James Barnes: Yes!
 * Steve Rogers: ...in my little red wagon.
 * James Barnes: Why not?
 * Steve Rogers: I'm not gonna sit in a factory, Bucky. Bucky, come on! There are men laying down their lives. I got no right to do any less than them. That's what you don't understand. This isn't about me.
 * James Barnes: Right. Cause you got nothing to prove. Don't do anything stupid until I get back.
