Narnia Scripters Named for Captain America Movie

they setting the whole movie during ww2? dont like the sound of that. but no matter how they do this movie its a hard sell for me, i mean is there any way to remain faithfull to that costume and not look ridiculous?

I think this movie has potential...but it also has the potential of bombing...BAD...however Marvel is behind this one like it was with Ironman and the Incredible Hulk, so i have high faith for this movie. And as far as the costume looking rediculous...just darken the colors a bit for film, and kinda re vamp certain parts of it, who'd a thought spiderman would've looked cool on screen? but he did, and this one should be fine.

If anyone is having trouble looking at the link try this one:

and just click the Captain America on the top right of the set to see what I'm referring to, if you feel like it.

THE SHEILD IS ADAMANTIUM, THE COSTUME IS FINE THE WAY IT IS, BE TRUE TO THE COMIC AND FANS. PLEASE DO US PROUD JO JONSTON OR YOU MIGHT GET HATED ON LIKE WE ALL DID RATNER FOR HIS X-MEN FLURB. OR SINGER WITH HIS SUPER POOP.

Great thing about Cap'n America, is you can do a whole movie in WWII, and then freeze him and then do another movie with him waking up and the sequel actually has a lot of the same elements that most movies have in the first of the series, because Cap is now being introduced to the modern era. It's like getting TWO starts in two movies instead of just 1.

or is that where the whole frozen in antartica thing come in

I can envision the ending for Captain America already. Cap get's thawed out and awakes to Robert Downey Jr's mug.
"Hey, you're not looking for a job by any chance?"
End movie.

I'm sick of the notion that audiences "have to buy" something, as if this could occur in the real world. Audiences don't have to buy capt.s' suit like they would in the real world, because he exists in a world of radioactive spiders, gamma ray poisoning not killing someone, and a Norse God living in OKLAHOMA. You're telling me an audience will overlook these things as plausible, but a man dressed in a red and blue suit with little wings on his head they will consider absurd?

I concur with Bucky. If you can buy a geeky teen bitten by a radioactive spider, a chick who walks through solid objects, and someone who has a sort of Sonar "sight", I think the all-american outfit donne by Cap is MORE than doable.

I mean, make it look more Body Armor-like, ala Batman Begins, and voila, shcweeeeet.

ugh...no body armor. That's what the shield is for.

Give it the same look, but take away the crappy spandex deal, and even the velvety look of Flashes suit in the early 90's series...Not like metallic hard-core body armor, just a very flexible, not at ALL spandex-y, armor-like suit. It doesn't necessarily have to BE armor ya know...Just have that look. The sectioned off look.

With the Vibranium suit he would be silent AND deadly...even cooler...

naah, those other characters look cool tho, even within the realms of a comic book cap still looks like a tool if you ask me! its too gung ho , stars n stripes

Id rarther the story be told in a band of brothers/saving pvt ryan way rarther than over the top Indiana Jones method.
If they stick to the Ultimates, and throw in classic cap story arcs, this has the potential to be a great film. Im not so sure about getting the Narnia guys to write it though, Cap's not a children's story. Full awarness should go to the fact its set in WW2. Name one war movie since the sixties that has been age appropriate for kids. I say go full out realism. The average comic book reader is between 20 and 35 years of age, why keep targeting the film versions at children?, now that MARVEL has taken the reins of thier characters they dont have to bow down corporate exeutives and ruin their franchises anymore. The film is either going to be great and be remembered alonside the likes of recent successes such as Ironman or The Dark Knight, OR it's going to BOMB into oblivion alongside HIROSHIMA.

I think they should treat the whole thing like a solid, serious ww2 movie, only add a super hero twist to it. kinda how IronMan didnt start right off as a super hero movie, but built up into one. but they totally HAVE to put in the bit where Cap punches hitler right in his nazi face! I allways loved that.

The movie wont fail if it has a GOOD SOLID SCRIPT. It about chracter development and the script. The costume on the other hand...they can darken it down a bit. Kinga like what they did with SPIDERMAN. It still blue...but not bright blue as they had it in the cartoons or the comics. Plus Cap' has all times of suits. They can pick a navy blue type.

I just want them to pick a good ACTOR. Looks the part...acts the part. The director is good..the writers are good. Road to predition < same writers for this movie. This movie will be hands down amazing.

...only if they have a solid script. The Dark Knight's script was amazing....and everything about TDK was amazing...acting character development...which is why the script is Downloadable? Which is why The Dark Knight special edition christmas packs come with "TICKETS" lol....for IMAX? hmmmm....

Maybe because The dark knight will be the first movie of this genre to be an oscar winning movie...and best actor will go to our beloved "Mr.ledger"....so like I said before.

SCRIPT is all they need. A Solid script...Because they have the director....and they have the writers.....now the script...and a lucky ACTOR....is what we're all waiting for.

Quick question where does Vibranium come from?

Cap sucks! They never should have thawed him out. Anything other than his corny little winged head fighting nazis during WWII will bomb. And yes, people DO have to buy the story- it's called "suspension of disbelief", which means the story has to be written so that people are willing to believe (and watch) the movie, and it's kind of vital if they hope to make any money off of this steaming heap.

The Captain America movie has to be good or else there can't be an Avengers movie.
