I'm kind of freaking out over here.

Too bad the actor for Cpt. America is Johnny Storm, though thats nothing that will keep me from seeing it

It's too bad Johnny Storm and Steve Rogers are both in the Marvelverse, cuz he was awesome in FF and will probably be good in CA:FA.

I thought Chris Evans did a good job with the Johnny Storm but I cant see him as Captain America, probably because Im used to him as The Human Torch

the captain america costume bothers me. while i was fully expecting to have something more modern looking and non-spandex, i wasnt expecting shoulder guards/pads, multi plated clothing and the like.

i think they could have kept the traditional costume (with the fish scale top) and tweeked that a bit. like make the top similar to the dragon skin body armor that the miliary is using now or something similar. a straight up copy of the Ultimates costume would have worked too. I just hope that for the WWII costume they steal the Ultimates one because its pretty bad ass.


the thundercats picture, while it looks great, looks a lot like fan art.

I think the scale top is entirely unrealistic. I like how this looks, honestly.

Regarding the Thundercats pic, it is definitely the promotional art for the new cartoon.

I saw that yesterday, and I have mixed feelings. It's obviously digitally-produced, so I reserve full judgement until I see the physical suit itself. That being said, ugh. The scale arms and bracers I like, and I dig the torso armor, but the pants and boots are ish. And Mjollnir is too small. Sure, it's faithful to the oldest books, but I was hoping for the Ultimates version in a bad way.



Also, this film is supposed to take place mostly in Asgard or viking times, so why doesn't he look more traditional. IMO, the Cap suit is a home run, while this has much to be desired.

Jeremy Renner is almost finalized to play Hawkeye in The Avengers. Nathan Fillion is rumored to be playing Hank "Ant Man/Giant Man/whatever" Pym. Neal McDonough is rumored to be playing commander of the Howling Commandos and Cap's right hand man, "Dum Dum" Dugan.

ah, we have almost reversed opinions of the costumes although i do agree with you about Mjollnir, the Ultimates version would have been bad ass.

i will take your stance on waiting to reserve full judgment with the Cap costume (i really cant get over the shoulder pads) until i see a non CG image.


that bit about the thor movie being is Asgard i didnt know. where did you read that?



Renner playing Hawkeye is great. Fillion, meh, i dont know him well enough to have an opinion and McDonough scares me.

Love Jeremy Renner, excited to see him in the film

I'm most excited about Fillion and McDonough becoming a part of the Marvelverse. I was having a talk with a girl I know about casting Hawkeye and Hank Pym, and while I like the casting of Nathan Fillion as Pym, she would rather have him play Hawkeye and Alan Tudyk play Pym.
