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?

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.

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

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

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

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

You guys remember when Matthew Macghuehguhnehey was gonna be Cap?

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

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!

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

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

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.

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.
