So. Chris Evans (not that one) may be Cappy Yank, eh? Is this what he'd look like?Related content

I love Chris Evans as the Human Torch, he even did a pretty good job in Push but he's no Cap. He might have the muscles and the good looks but he's not, in my opinion capable of holding such a serious role in place. Yes I must admit, from the list of contenders he is the best...I just wish they could find a new face to debut. Oh well...great work though this looks really good!

I'm not going to pass any kind of judgement until I've seen him in action.
I don't really give a shit about Captain America, but I'm very interested in what Marvel are doing with all these separate characters, bringing them together for the Avengers movie. I think it takes balls to walk on the tightrope like they are. One slip and they're bolloxed. So they're thinking this stuff through VERY carefully.
A lot of people slagged off Downey as Iron Man and Ledger as Joker and look how THEY turned out. I'm not defending the guy. Just wait to see something to pass judgement on.

your right...my main problem though is with his contract as the hero Captian America it mentions him portraying this character in crossovers...most cross-overs, at some point, feature the Fantastic four...what will they do1?!?!

Fantastic Four won't factor. Marvel sold the movie rights to Fox so they can't / won't have them anywhere near the Avengers. Also, by the time The Avengers hit's the screen, someone else will be Jonny Storm in the FF reboot that's being thrown together as we speak.

So yeah Chris is cast as Cap, but on one term i hate to see it. I mean, what about our Human Torch? He played that role, brilliantly. Yet now he moves on to the serious, War ridden Cap who is flightless, muscle bound, serious and determined... I dunno, i just cant see it.
But i reckon your spot on with the costume. Way they are going, changing everyones costumes in the movies, i say this will be the model if not the true costume he so embraces

I didn't rate the FF films. At all. I though the only good thing was, well, The Thing. Chiklis was great in them. A lot of people are saying watch Sunshine, though, for a good serious Chris Evans role. Been a good few years since I've seen it.
I'm very interested to see what they do do with the uniform in the film. I think it will be just that; a uniform. I wouldn't be surprised if they completely got rid of the mask either. I would.

I strongly believe that the Captain America we will see, portrayed by one Chris Evans, will be interesting. When you have an Aussie cast for a Norse God, your certainly pulling strings again. And i watch as they plan to create this Avengers movie, and once again as you said, its a tight rope they are taking and if they slip up even the slightest, it can and probably will lead to very major problems.
That being said, Captian America's costume i feel will be one that looks more military made then a costume in itself. I feel after watching how Spiderman's suit was, and seeing them dramatically change the looks of our X-Men uniforms and age's/ timelines, while revamping and renewing the stories to our FF and Iron Man, that Marvel will have some problems in producing what we will be seeing soon, the Thor movie and the Captain America movie.
Costume wise, character story wise, and overall the actors themselves should be quite a interesting review.

I don't think Thor's cossy will be all that important. It's not a big part of who he is, unlike Spiderman and Cappy Yank.
See, the X-Men were fine. I love the books but always HATED the spandex. I thought the best ever uniforms were Frank Quitely's redesigns. Gorgeous.
But for a Thor movie, if I was doing it, I'd just take a Norse warrior / viking chain-mail uniform , vamp it up, twist it and stick some big polished steal disks on the front that glow when he's using the lightning and steer clear of the comic stuff all together.
As for Steve Rogers, I'd have him in what Bryan Hitch came up with in WW2 and in the present day stuff have Iron Man knock up a Kevlar plated, not 'feathered' or scaled or whatever, tunic with army / air force issue blue trousers and boots. In the celebrity worshiping day and age we live in, for better or worse, I don't think it'd be relevant, in the movie world, to have Steve masked. Unless they want to play up to the 'Masked Super Hero' thing 'in movie'. If you get what I mean.

I do. Unfortunately what is going to be is that we cannot have a world recognizing that our Johhny Storm is in fact Steve Rogers, the Captain America. That said, i believe (The movie being played out in two parts, first in the war, second modern day) that we will see him in his uniform. But upon entering the new era, we have already seen the shield to which he will carry, Iron Man already having it in his workshop. So perhaps we will see the attire of a full blue military uniform, with a feathered tunic that portrays the star which was always upon his chest. His helmet may very well be that of his WW2 era, rather than our masked man that we know to this day. His Helmet branding the 'A', painted centre on the front.
Thor will be a big deal, not so much on the costume but still to show that he is a Viking/ Norse God, and not like others that we have seen. He needs something that will show off that he is in fact the character that we dont just see in the comics, but the same guy written in mythology over so many years. Especially MjΓΆllnir, she cannot merely be a modern item.
MjΓΆllnir is a big part of Thor also, and she cannot be overlooked. Depending on if they dulge into the 'human' portrayal of Thor also (Which according to the recent script, they will) they may work things over, portraying a costume he may simply fall into it upon the transformation.

They're not doing a transformation with Thor. They're just having Thor and not the Donald Blake alter ego. Which I think is better. There was never really a need nor reason beyond "Oh, a superhero must have an alter ego".
I'd imagine the hammer would look like something outta the British Museum. All pitted steal and cracked stone. Kinda like this >>> [link] [link] [link] I like to think of it as being ancient before even Thor got his hands on it. Like it has been passed down for hundreds of generations.

But it is written in the current script he is cast down amongst men to walk as a human, not as god. So he wont be a god in itself until he truly discovers himself. So the script at current is written.
And as much as you would like to think of the weapon of choice for Thor to be ancient, we know very well that its made for him by his father. Wether that is explained in the movie will be a different matter. But id like to believe the hammer of Thor will be the stone head, rather than the newer one which ive honestly no idea on but believe from appearance for it to be some form of steel with a hammer head on one side, and the axe head on the other. This version truly dissapoints me and i would not like to see it in the movie

I don't really know much about the Thor comics or mythos, but I do know production design. That's all I'm going on. I normally tend to have a good knack for what will look good. I'm a redesigner as a hobby. And comics don't always translate well at all to 3D. Just look at the people who attend comic cons, [link] [link] ha ha ha.
I just know from interviews with Kenneth Branagh that Donald Blake is not a part of the movie at all. I think he may wear normal everyday clothes to hide in plain sight but there's no transformation as such.
π: 0 β©: 1
From what im reading here, Kenneth has his own acting role in the movie, and also has added Donald Blake to the end of the script. That said, Donald Blake is also to appear in Iron Man 2, which would help set up an Avengers Title.
I study the characters and their stories, but never the writers or that. I love mythology and often study it too. Were as production i do not, and tho i know you've pointed out some horrible costumes, im willing to put good money towards the idea that they had brilliant costumes as well.
Whatever Kenneth said originally, was all indented to be for the script written that was solely in Valhalla. This rewritten script has Thor as Donald Blake, (as far as ive read) a disabled medical scientist who's undiscovered alter ego is Thor. This would allow for a transformation into modern times, since Thor has been set back in the time of the gods.

Hmm. I haven't seen that anywhere. I'll have to get searchin'. But in regards to the comic-con costumes that second was the best, based upon the comic, that I could find. Scary. Ha ha.

Well good luck with the research.
Ill have to look around for better costumes, im positive their are some

What? You don't want Chris Evans as Cap? I think out of the names banded about lately he's the lesser of evils.
π: 0 β©: 1
Eh, I dunno. All I've seen him play are obnoxious douchebags.

He should be just right for Captain America, then, ha ha.
Nah, I know what you mean. If you watch Danny Boyle's Sunshine he's not as much of a cock in that.
Really, the other suggestions / contenders were bad though. Really bad. They were all 10 years old and skinny as piss and couldn't lead themselves outta a brown paper bad never mind a load of, let's be fair, young average every day and scared as shit guys who had now become yanky troops.
