Captain America Movie
 
For anyone who's interested in this movie there are a few candidates for the Captain America role in the movie:

I REALLY hope they don't choose Krasinski for the role. I could just see the whole thing going to hell if they do and I will refuse to watch the movie. The acting will be so subpar.

A movie will automatically be bad if they cast one person?

Mutagen Mutant 02-26-2010 04:50 PM

Well I look at it this way. If the main actor of the movie, whose character provides the plotline, who the other characters all interact with, and whose acting and face you have to look at for nearly 2 hours sucks, then the movie will suck.

Sword Slicin' Leo 02-26-2010 04:53 PM

Hope it's better than the last one..

Tobey Macguire sucked and people still liked the Spider-man movies.

Mutagen Mutant 02-26-2010 05:27 PM

Well I'm certainly not one of those "people". People are evidently willing to settle for less.

Spitfire 02-26-2010 06:08 PM

This director worked with great actors and still made a bad movie. I don't have much faith in anything he does.

Brodie 02-26-2010 10:58 PM

If Krasinski is Cap, I'd see it. It'd actually be fun.

You guys remember when Matthew Macghuehguhnehey was gonna be Cap?

Leo656 02-27-2010 01:28 AM

As long as The Red Skull is still Italian, I don't see any way they can fail...

AMERICA!!!

Raph's Girl 03-01-2010 12:11 PM

Ok no casting has been anounced as of yet however filming starts June 28th and there's casting calls now for L.A and London for extras and principal cast. For London it's just extras as I believe that's where filming will be starting.

I do like how they want an American to play Cap. Personally, the Nazi in me wants someone who's actually blonde hair and blue eyed (that was a joke about the Nazi in me for those of you who missed it and actually want to take me seriously).

You should see Spoony's reviews on the other 2 Capt. America movies that were released in the 70's!

The Stryker 03-03-2010 03:18 PM

Do people honestly form opinions on things from watching internet reviewers?

plastroncafe 03-19-2010 07:50 PM

Looks like we COULD HAVE a Cap.
Hitfix.com is reporting that TMNT's own Casey Jones MIGHT be taking on the role of Captain American in the upcoming movie.

Quote:

The long, drawn out process to determine who will carry the shield of America's greatest super-patriot is over. Sources have confirmed to HitFIx that Chris Evans has been offered the role of the title hero in "The First Avenger: Captain America."

Other candidates for the part included Channing Tatum, Ryan Phillippe, John Krasinski and Mike Vogel. HitFix has learned the word about Evans' casting came down this afternoon to the other potential Cap's that the role was Evans. Some of the other new actors auditioning for the role had not even met with director Joe Johnston yet.

Evans previously played hot-head Johnny Storm in 20th Century Fox's two "Fantastic Four" movies. Assuming Evans takes the role, he'll be committed to a number of future Marvel films including "Captain America" sequels, "The Avengers" and appearing in other Marvel Universe pictures.

No word officially from Marvel Studios or distributor Paramount Pictures at this time.

saw "death too soon" before Spoony reviewed them, i could not find the first one, but he was dead on about the second movie, it's a boring cheesefest beyond help.

and NC was imo right about captain america from 1990 and Howard the duck:lol:

I should have made a smiley after my post so people would get it was meant as a joke, or write in it red text.

oh right...

:)

Mecha Cow 03-22-2010 07:28 PM

The Human Torch is now Captain America.

Reallly don't see Evans as Cap, but I guess they could have done worse -- out of all the pretty boys (and Krasinski) that were up for the role he's probably one of the more charismatic ones. Might be interesting.

Revan 03-22-2010 07:42 PM

I find it interesting that the same actor will portray different Marvel superheroes... that is all

Great...now lets cast the rest of the Fantastic Four folks in the movie. Ioan Gruffudd could be Human Torch, Jessica Alba could be Peggy Carter....

the fixer 03-23-2010 04:05 AM

I would've preferred Channing Tatum, actually. No joke. Heard he was in talks at one point..

I think it's dumb to cast an actor who's already a Marvel icon...
It's pretty much like casting Christopher Reeve in Tim Burton's Batman.
There are other actors around, y'guys...

But why limit yourself like that. If a person fits a role, why not cast him?

Also, it's not like casting Reeve as Batman. While I enjoyed the fantastic four movies, they weren't exactly gigantic hits that established the actors as those characters.

Candy Kappa 03-23-2010 08:36 AM

eeh could have been worse, and F4 is getting a reboot so I see no reason why he can't play a new Marvel character. thought besides Stan Lee as himself, he was the only character I liked in the F4 movies

Brodie 03-23-2010 10:59 AM

People are up in arms about someone playing two Marvel comic book characters....but did we forget Ryan Reynolds has already done this?

Don't forget Michael Chiklis, who was AWESOME as Ben Grim. Actually, the Torch and Thing were the only decent things in those movies, so I do hope they get more work.

Yes! Michael Chiklis as Red Skull or Namor....

Brodie 03-23-2010 09:04 PM

Chiklis as Namor? Do you know what Namor looks like?

Leo656 03-24-2010 02:19 AM

What does Namor look like? Let's see...

A) Like a total dweeb. The guy has little wings on his ankles, fer chrissakes! :lol:

B) Lame, like a second-rate Aquaman (as if Aquaman wasn't lame enough on his own...)

C) Both A and B

But seriously, I actually wanna see this Cap movie now. It's neat the guy might actually be in like 9 Marvel movies as Cap by the time all's said and done, what with Avengers and whatnot. Good for him.

Candy Kappa 03-24-2010 03:32 AM

namor kicks ass even if he wears a tiny speedo

I was being sarcastic. I know what Namor looks like. :P

Raph's Girl 04-02-2010 12:17 AM

Aaand we have a Bucky!!

Joining Chris Evans is Sebastian Stan...he's signed up to play Bucky in at least 6 movies and can currently be seen in Hot Tub Time Machine. He plays Carter Baizen in Gossip Girl.

He's cute:

Leo656 04-03-2010 01:47 AM

Cap gets to have Bucky in a movie and yet Batman simply can't have Robin. Weak.

I don't pay any attention to the Schumacher flicks because they were horribly done from the very conception. There's a way to make Robin work in a flick, and that wasn't it.

Ironically, I predict the Cap flick(s) will actually do the concept properly. Or at least better.

Raph's Girl 04-15-2010 01:20 PM

Aaand we have a villain and love interest!!

British actress Hayley Atwell has been cast as Sharon Carter's aunt Peggy while Hugo Weaving has been cast as Red Skull.

Actor Toby Jones (Dobby in the Harry Potter movies) has been cast as villain Arnim Zola! Well that autta be interesting. He will soon be seen in the 7th ep of Doctor Who this season!

That's not a pic of Stan.

Spitfire 06-03-2010 01:21 AM

Well they almost got it right. The wings may be silly but they are sorta iconic.

PAAATE 06-03-2010 02:44 AM

Hahahaha! The suit looks good, but what cracks me up is how serious he looks when he's wearing it.

"I'm Captain America. I'm gonna **** you up with my over-sized suspenders!"
