Rocketeer was good but that was ages ago and his recent stints stunk.

I have faith in marvel, and the age thing is a issue w/Cap but I’m sure it will play out fine.

Lets hope they nail this one.

I’ve been Waitin’ for a Great Cap film and hope they do it justice

I’m kind of on the reverse from you with this one. I think Joe Johnston, the director, will do an excellent job. Yes he did the recent Wolfman movie, which was just okay of a film, at best. But he also did The Rocketeer. Which was a GREAT super hero movie set during 1938. Which I think is the main reason Marvel chose him for this.

But I’m more concerned over Cris Evans. I did like him in Push and Sunshine, also this will be his 6th comic book based movie, which is kind of cool. But still, can he pull off a guy in a 40’s time period during World War II, can he make a movie version of Capt. America seem cool, can he pull off a strong leader character, who’s in charge of a bunch of guys with God/God like powers/tech for the Avengers, and not seem like he’s just some lost kid mixed up in all this?

It also feels weird that he’s younger the rest of the Avenger actors, but yet he’s the leader. One of the things that bothered me about the X-Men movies was how young they made Cyclopes. Although they turned his character into crap anyhow.

Still, I have tones of faith in Marvel and what they’re doing. Apparently they saw something special in this kid to play their equivalent to Superman. Who knows, maybe this will finally be the role that makes Chris Evans really shine.

Can’t have Luke Cage without his buddy Iron Fist. Also I think the Mutan Dazzler would fit just fine in the 70’s or even Cloak and Dagger.

Nothing new here. Move along.
To reCAP:

* We already know there are loose ties to Thor as the test footage from last month’s CC revealed (Skull looking for an artifact called ‘The Eye Of Odin’)

* We expect a Nick Fury cameo, probably at the end/ after credits teaser. Hawkeye should be in the end credits tease as well.

* It was suggested previously that “The Invaders” would get a shout out. (Which would open a path for such a film if needed and/or Namor)

* The Howard Stark connection.

I agree, Mr. Glasgow.

Marvel Set in the 70’s?
Heres what would be sweet

Dr. Strange
Luke Cage
Master of Kung-Fu

with a 70’s vibe to it

Thats all I got here

I think it would be cool if they did a 70s Marvel movie. That way they could have John Slattery back as Howard Stark.
