And they're also talking about Ant man .....seriously....

glad to hear a date and *begins to hold breath now* aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.................

Yeah, antman=WTF

I do wonder what the hell they're thinking.

Movie studio brainstorm session:

"Oooh, superhero movies are popular. We need to cash in on this fad before it gets old. Who hasn't been done yet. Batman? Check. Spider-Man? Crud. Superman? Crap. The Incredible Hulk? Dang. Iron Man? Damn. How about those X-Men guys? Shoot. Daredevil? No way! Ghost Rider? Man, they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel. How about Elektra, Catwoman, Fantastic Four, or The Punisher? You've GOT to be kidding. Maybe we could focus on one of the more popular X-Men, like Wolverine. Really? Man, we're totally running out of superheros."

On a side note, with attitudes toward America being what they are right now, I know it will never happen, but I'm want an ultra-patriotic, jingoistic, blockbuster Captain America movie.

McConaughey as Captain America?

Completely wrong for the role, IMO.

He's buff... he can act... don't look a gift horse in the mouth

So will we get to see Tony and Steve beat the crap outta each other?

Angels In The Outfield, Boys On The Side, A Time To Kill, EdTV, U-571, Wedding Planner, Reign Of Fire, How To Lose a Guy In 10 Days, Sahara, Failure To Launch, and We Are Marshall all disagree.

His only redeeming role was in Dazed And Confused, and I don't think that character would translate to Captain America very well:

"You know what I like about High School Nazi girls, Bucky? I keep getting older and they keep staying the same age. All right, all right."

You watch shitty movies.

You're the one who said he was a "good actor". I just wanted to point out that you are in fact living a lie with that statement.

He's a good enough actor when he's cast right - as a good-for-nothin' charmer. I thought his performance in Newton Boys was entirely adequate, for instance.

But Captain America as a good-for-nothin' charmer? Bleh.

Note to Marvel: Don't keep looking for a blond haired, blue eyed guy just because Steve Rogers is one. Think about how he'll serve the role with the mask on and have the courage to ignore the fanboy bitching until they see the movie and are proven completely wrong, as they tend to be.

*shrug* I think he's a good actor

and an A-list actor is certainly as much as Captain America deserves

I dunno, but I hope in the Avengers or Antman movie Steve beats the shit out of Ant-Man. that was such an awesome fight scene...

But we've already had a captain america movie
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103923/

I'm surprised you didn't link to the horrifyingly bad '70s movies.

FWIW, he was really good in We Are Marshall. The movie wasn't that great, though.

McConaughey was probably selected for his mid-american smallville charm. The character, after all, is supposed to be the all-american guy who, thanks to homesoil technology is changed into the ultimate super-soldier.

He still blows goats.

so don't see the movie

I most likely will not, actually.

LIER

Hey, he's standing up for his principles. That'll show 'em.

2-3yrs and counting.

hey, I managed to avoid seeing X3 despite wanting to really bad. I think I can avoid captain america.

I'm pretty sure that Captain America is going to be better than X3.

With McConaughey in it? No frigging way.

Well you wouldn't know would you? Since you never saw X3 and all

BTW it's seriously awesome and kickass in some parts, but I guess you'll never find out.

I just remember reading the pages of rants everybody made against the movie here.

I think ur thinking of Spiderman 3

rar

Those movies being all three SM movies?

SM2 still pwns your mom, you know.

It had to be done.

Also I'm fine with McConaughey. I personally don't think he'd do any better/worse than Brad Pit/Ben Afleck.

Any word on whether any of the original actors (RDJ for Iron Man thus far) would be returning for a cross over Avengers movie? I'm really disappointed The upcoming Justice League movie won't be crossing over the same actors (Superman/Batman) Of course I'm not hearing much good about the director so it's any body's guess what'll happen

As hyped as I am for TDK I absolutely dread another SM film. Seriously can a second installment suck any worse than the first?

Souther Slacker Captain America > Fraiser Beast

Sorry X-Men fans, but any blue furry guy in your movie = insta-shark jump

Okay so Triple H gets my nod for Thor! He has the long hair, beard, muscle look down and he uses a sledge hammer as a weapon.

HHH bestest Thor EVAH! (imo)

*keep your bellyaching down, you know I'm right*

if you don't believe me they could alway go and get this guy...

No wrestler could do the Nordic-speak without it coming off as incredibly goofy.

Thor has to be an be cast as an unknown if the audience is to take it seriously at all.

see my second choice.

Wrestlers are some of the best actors.

So, since I don't know about the comics and stuff... is Thor like, really the Norse god Thor?

still gets my HHH nod.

Isn't that a bit cheesy to not even come up with an original character? Like "oh hey I know, let's put Hercules in the comics too!" No copyright issues, that's for sure.

Yes. the original version is very, very ghey. The ultimate version is much better, but an acquired taste(In a non-normal comic booky fashion, no less).

Herc is covering for the Hulk at the moment in the comics.

It's been done.

Both Marvel and DC's version is even lamer than your average Hercules adaptation.

I thought your second choice was you being factitious.

I was so totally not being serious, just pointing out an unknown.

Ah...well, I didn't mean that particular unknown actor...but I don't think there are any celebrities that both 1) have the look and 2) are capable of playing the part well enough as to allow the audience to suspend their disbelief of just how hokey the character is.

Thor could work if it was approached more Mythically or Conan'esque....

Beowulf or 300 or Gladiator 'D

rather than Dude in spandex that hangs out with other ghey dudes in spandex....

I agree, but then you run into the problem that anyone can make that movie. There's no reason for Marvel Studios to spend the money to make a movie unless they're promoting their ghey dudes in spandex books.

Which kind of begs the question of why you would bother in the first place... I mean, "because he's a comic character who hasn't been in a movie yet" isn't a compelling reason for me.
