ok sam worthington was a VARY popular actor in australia. he even won an AFI award for best lead actor as joe in the movie Somersault. and has proven he is a good actor. some people have been pulling things out of their ass about him. like he has a shitty american accent?
sadly i cant post the video but here is a link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3j4-lE_n3g

his character in terminator is basicaly steave rogers. wakes up in the future with no knowledge of the past really. i know he is 5'10 but they can make him at least 6 feet in the movie.
i would be suprised if marvel doesnt at least consider him for the role

this is just another video i found that shows worthingtons character marcus wright. this is extreamly close to cap. the closest i can get at least.

Well I've always said I wouldn't mind Sam Worthington as Cap. A lot of people do jump the gun about him being not American (although it would be a MASSIVE plus it isn't essential) He's used to action and has shown he can act off of big named actors (christian bale, liam neeson) so he would have no problem acting along side rdj or sam jackson. He's not the greatest actor in the world but he's certainly decent and 100000 times better than Jensen Ackles who IMO is just a pretty boy actor.

The thing is about Ackles though is I like the guy but he doesn't have the chops to play Cap, and he doesn't even look that much like Cap. To the guys credit though he does look more like Cap than Worthington, but then what's looks if ya can't act right?

My personal choice for Cap is Aaron Eckhart. Who looks nearly identical to Steve Rogers, is a damn fine actor and has the right physique and height to play him. But the reason people go crazy when they hear that is silly...his age. I find it hilarious because age isn't nearly the most important thing when casting cap, I always thought it was about skill y'know but I guess I'm wrong...

Put it this way I'd rather have a great actor who looks a lot like Cap play him rather than some pretty boy actor who can't act and looks less like Rogers than Eckhart but he is the same age as in the comics. Age doesn't matter. Hel;l you can have a 60 year old play him and be able to make him look young so what's the problem with someone who's forty???

*phew* rant over. Good article himynameiszach, he has more of a chance than Ackles to get the part anyway!

thats what i said

- eckhart is a good actor and looks like cap. but i dont really think he can do action. like he hasnt proved that he can be an a totaly kick ass hero. but he could still do it he probly would be good at it tho. i just cant be sold till i see him kick like everyones ass in a movie.

plus i do have another actor thats american that would also make a great cap

himynameiszach: I think I'll just leave the same rambling shit on this article as you did on mine...

"your retarded this dude is a totaly never heard of actor. this is a total ameture fan cast and [frick] you you stupid ass motha [frick]er who doesnt know a good movie if it bit you in your 3 inch flacid penis. pick a [frick]in realy actor with real things that are gonna be in the movie."
himynameiszach - 12/4/2009, 6:24 PM

I cant really be bothered to go through why UnWorthington is a terrible choice but I will say that casting an Australian is a terrible idea, especially one who cant hold an American accent for more than a few minutes at a time. Secondly, casting a short arse like Worthington woul also be a mistake not to mention the fact he looks completely wrong for the part!

I'd much prefer to see Jensen Ackles, Ryan McPartlin, Chris Pine, Matt Damon, Patrick Wilson, Wentworth Miller or even Aaron Eckhart get the part before this guy.

himynameiszach - 12/5/2009, 4:38 PM
het josh!
none of those actors except for Damon are going to bet picked.
seriously i think you just look threw mens fittness to find your actors.
so have fun hoping that those actors will get picked. no really have fun.
oh and chuck is the stupidest show ive ever seen. if you want to go cry again its ok. supernatural will be on that will cheer you up. we all know how you have bad taste in acting but a really good eye for the way a male actor looks......fag

I don't think Worthington is the worst choice for Cap, hell of a lot better that Ackles. I don't have another suggestion as no one really hits the mark in my eye.

I'm glad I'm not the person who has to make this decision, because as all these posts and suggestions show, there are a lot of options, some better than others. No matter who they choose, there will be backlash. I can't wait to see who they pick though.

ZACH: Haha, well the hundreds of positive comments I've had on all of the fan casts I've done seem to contradict your point that, "we all know how you have bad taste in acting" - at least I can make a proper argument as to why I think those actors should be chosen! Your barely literate article does nothing to convince me he'd be a good choice for Cap - you've just pointed out that he won an award for a movie I've never heard of and confirmed how short he is! In fact, the whole basis of your argument is the fact his character in Terminator was a little similar to Steve Rogers. Wow.

Is this you by any chance?

lmfao hilarious pic @joshw24@ im betting this guy is probably about 12 and has some strange feelings towards guys he cant expain which is probably why hes forever using the word 'fag'! ;o)

Now now boys no fighting, ive just had my fill of a fight in my own article lol! : D

Oh and...





SAM THE MAN!!!

After all its a fictional character and WORTHINGTON'S an actor, no problem there, i reckon though MARVEL may surprise everyone and get someone no ones thought about or maybe even heard about, ya never know!

Oh yeah Ackles for HAWKEYE! : P

Now peace ppl, peace! : D

Zach: Male model? Who's that then? I hate to break it to you but a lot of male TV and movie stars started out modelling when they were starting their careers! That really has little to no relevence on how good or bad an actor they are!

And in case you cant read, I wrote a whole article on why I think that McPartlin would make a decent Cap and what do you know - pretty much everyone agreed with me!

Its really pathetic that you "cant wait to see what happens when none of your actors get picked" - who cares if none of my choices are cast? I have faith that Marvel will make a good decision as they seem to have done so far casting actors that many of us would never have thought of like Chris Hemsworth! If its someone I'd like to see get the role then great. If not - its hardly the end of the world!

And there is no way in hell I'll ever believe an idiot like you was ever a marine but if FAD got your age and occupation wrong Im guessing she was right about about you having strange feelings towards guys as you said she was "close close", huh? ;)

MovieTheaterLad: Great choice with McPartlin! Did you see my article under "Editorials"? :)

LEE: What article and who with, lol?

I find it hard to believe you posted any article at all after trolling your idiotic ass through joshes article the way you did. Lack of a brain stem will surely let you stumble blindly through quite a bit I suppose.

Anybody who reads this should check out what this troll did over on joshes Ryan McPartlin article in Editorials.

himynameiszach - 12/5/2009, 5:55 PM
and your little dick makes and lack of friends is probly why you use words like troll (still dont know what the [frick] that means). i still dont realize why any of you [frick] heads think that your hott shit cuz you found a blond tall actor with a good voice and think dude that must be cap! i kinda wish i could actualy see or know you guys. then we could talk shit about movies. i still find it hard to belive that im actualy doing this. i love movies and ive got like hella issues with the [frick]in retardedness going around about cap.

plus i thought all your other characters were good. fyi. i just think mcpartlin or whatever is a terrible choice

All my friends are perfectly happy with my little willy, thank you for your concern.

Hawksblueyes: Lol! Love the new avatar by the way! :)

ZACH: Look man, no one has argued more than me and LEE about who should play Captain America. At one point we were pretty much at each others throats every time we were on this site making it unpleasent for us and everyone else who happenned to be there at the same time. However, we resolved our differences a while ago and now we get on just as well, if not better, than when I first joined CBM.

My point is, we all love these characters and we all want to see these movies get made and we of course all have very different opinions. I know you probably dont give a [frick] about what anyone thinks of you judging by your past comments but you'll find your time on CBM a lot more enjoyable and you'll make a lot more friends by not making comments like, "your little dick makes and lack of friends is probly why you use words like troll" and "your retarded this dude is a totaly never heard of actor. this is a total ameture fan cast and [frick] you you stupid ass motha [frick]er who doesnt know a good movie if it bit you in your 3 inch flacid penis"

As long as you contine talking shit like that, people are gonna call you a troll, they're gonna just dismiss your comments even if you're making a decent point and they'll do exactly what I did when I read this article - instead of reading it and discussing it with you they'll take no notice because of how you've acted in the past until eventually you'll just become a joke like supermike was who eventually leaves the site because a hate campaign was pretty much started against him (rightly so - the bastard went so far as insulting a picture of teabag's 1 year old daughter)

If you want to carry on acting like that then fine - I've tried to make a point that I hope you'll get - but if you arent gonna change then no offence but I'll be deleting your BS comments off every article I post that you comment on.
