Congratulations to all of us who voted for Mads Mikkelsen! He surely IS the Red Skull and he wouldn't even need very much make-up or CGI to make it work! He's THAT scary & good!

Just look at that picture of Le Shiffre! Sca-a-r-ry!

Dang...Thank You..loved parascythe's and booka2010's pic's....Personally I think that DDL would have won if anyone believed that he would take a role like that but Mads just seems nasty enough to pull this off.

Great news! :)

Mads was 'InTylerWeTrust82's idea and a damned good idea at that!

He's perfect for The Red Skull (along with Haley who I think would also do a great job) - lets just hope Marvel is listening!!

BRENT: will you still be doing the 'femme fatale' poll that you mentioned before?

Thats good work @ PARASCYTHE @ Nice! ; )



Okay, doesn't alter the fact no vote goes up 45 votes in five minutes to 499 votes! Especially as DDL was slowly in the lead for a big part of yesterday!

Its sad but true an ive got nothing against this guy as RED SKULL infact all them four actors would make great RED SKULLS! Just the way its been done.


I knew the BRET HARRISON was BS lol!

LEE: everyone is sick of your BS LEE - just look on the Wolverine articles if you dont believe me. grow up or get off the site because you hi-jacking every single article with this crap is getting real old real quick. you've been told that voting more than once is impossible so just get over it - its a fan poll not the end of the world little girl.

Thanks Brent...

JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 8/14/2009, 10:36 AM

i stick with my two original picks -

Angelina Jolie for Mother Night

Mother Night

Viper

Brent is the casting for an unnamed female? Like a character that good be anyone? So any actress is eligible?

I'd go for Tricia Helfer. She can play evil like nobodies business and picture her in an SS uniform!
CRITIC17
CRITIC17 - 8/14/2009, 10:48 AM
NO!!!!! Well, he was my third choice. Jackie Earle HAley was supposed to win...
InTylerWeTrust
InTylerWeTrust - 8/14/2009, 10:54 AM
Hehe, sorry Critic. I thought Haley was going to win too.

But I must get all the credit for this win! Everyone must bow down to me!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Brittany Murphy as Sin


Sin is Red Skull's Daughter, I don't think she would be in the Captain American movie unless it takes place in modern day, but would be good in the Avengers movie as a female bad guy for Scarlet to fight.

Angelina Jolie for Mother Night I think she would be a good Crazy mother figure for Sin, and they would have good chemesty together in the movie as two crazy hot chicks.

Tricia Helfer for Madame Hydra

I think the movie will most likely deal with HYDRA and them going against SHIELD and not the hole Nazi thing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yohon: Jolie and Murphy would work great together onscreen! they could easily tweak things round a little to include Sin..!

Tyler: ill bow down to you for picking Mads if you bow down to me for bicking Harrison, lol! ;)

I think that the most likely female character they will use will probably be Mother Night - there arent really any other Red Skull themed villainesses from that time period!
Frogman
Frogman - 8/14/2009, 12:25 PM
Beckinsale and/or Alba - see if she can do better as a femme fatale than she did as Invisible Woman.
LordHumongous
LordHumongous - 8/14/2009, 12:47 PM
Not Alba. She's already a super hero.

I think Kristina Loken would be one badass Nazi biotch.
NataliaRomanov
NataliaRomanov - 8/14/2009, 12:48 PM
Oooh, Mads won! Yea!

I want to see Lucy Liu as Madame Hydra!!!
Bijous
Bijous - 8/14/2009, 12:55 PM
@Ror: I don't know who Tricia Helfer is, but I can see her being a bad girl that's for sure!

@Lord: Yeah, Loken would be great!

@Frogman: Hell, NO, to Alba!!!

@Natalia: Lucy Liu would be an awesome Madame Hydra!

Mads would be good as Red Skull as well as the other top vote getters... But I still like Guy Pearce for Red Skull.
