It’s weird seeing Chris Evans with a serious face, like that’s rare for him, but it looks like he’s going to give this role his all

@ Beetle Bomb

True. It shouldn’t be a problem, though, because they’re most likely going to reboot the Fantastic Four movies. Once Cap, Thor, and Avengers come out enough time will have passed and they’ll make some actual good FF films.

It looks good, though. Excited for this and the Thor film!

“Awesome! Let the haters start running their mouths…”

What a pointless comment, to criticize criticism before anyone else has even spoken!

I think I read somewhere that the FF was ever going to be part of the shared universe that makes up the Marvel cinemaverse because the rights are owned by a different studio. Same goes for Spider-Man. I can’t remember where I read that so I could be wrong.

I’m hoping for the hidden scene at the end of the Avengers movie to introduce Reed Richards (George Clooney of course) working with the Infinity Guantlet or Ultimate Nullifier getting ready to take on Galactus or something along those lines, or maybe as part of the Illuminati. That would be Marvel-icious.

Still not excited about the suspenders, but other than that it looks good.

Meh. Superhero movies are trying to put superheroes in custumes that look like they bought at the Gap, these days. I’m not interested.

TheLogicJunkie, It is great you’ve been able to see the film. Only by seeing the film could you have come up with such a thoughtful opinion of Evan’s work on the film. It surely can’t be just by this image and a few other pics that have made it to the net.

That is a whole lot of awesome.

As a follow-up to my last post, it appears to simply be paint that’s missing. If you look, you can see the metal beneath the surface paint is undamaged. Considering the shield was a mistake in the first place, chances are they didn’t put a neat paint design right on it when it was being forged, so it’s not like the color can’t come off… still indestructible (unless you’re Vance Astrovik in GoTG)

Well here we go. Gotta admit, looks a hell of alot better than ANYONE thought. Come on fess up!!! That looks damn good, for only one pic. LOl@VinnieBartilucci!!! You are SOOO blody right.Folks gonna have a damn cow over that bit. I can wait. I really wasnt looking foward to this all that much. But now…at least they are trying to get it. Give em a chance. Still think Evans is too…um…puny(sorry had to be said). But Im now hopeful for this flick now.

Yeah, I saw the shield “damage” right away, too (geek). And then I wondered if they were going to do the whole indestructible shield thing at all. Usually you just get one “buy” in a movie (i.e. one “unbelievable” thing they want you to just go with — it’s a standard industry rule of thumb — so you get Dr. Manhattan, but no other psychic or super-powers, you get krypton and its inhabitants with powers on earth, but no other powers, etc.) In this case you get the super-soldier serum (or whatever process makes Cap super-ish) and the shield would be “too much”

BUT then I realized the REALLY IMPORTANT THING which is that a shield is just so great an idea for a super-hero weapon. I always liked that about Cap — that he can use it offensively as well as defensively. And add to it the symbolic aspect of it being indestructible. Was that Stan and Jack that came up with the round shield? I can’t remember now.

Oh crap!! He does kinda look like that guy. Oh hell!!!

Loks like a good effort.

This looks better than I expected, but I don’t think it’s the best representation of Cap or lives up to the potential of what a Cap movie could be. Evans wasn’t the best candidate for the role- he was the best candidate at Marvel’s price point for the role. Offering so little money severely hurts a production like Cap and changes the dynamic of the Avengers Team. I’ve noticed recently that Iron Man is often depicted as the leader of the Avengers. Who can see Chris Evans barking orders at Robert Downey Jr? He’s just not a good fit for the role.

And as for the suit- Bryan Hitch has given them a good blue print for the suit on MANY occasions. I find it disappointing that they didn’t bring him into the character design process the way Favreau brought Granov in to work on the Iron Man suit. The Ab Muscle detail is anachonistic. People didn’t care about ab muscles in the 1930s. Hitches Red Spat Boot Cover was a stroke of genius. These guys have really missed an opportunity for a great, iconic costume by not including Hitch in the design process.

I’ll see the movie regardless, but hoping that the best actor for low money, a director whose feasability for success is based on a 20 year old film, and a costume that shows that they don’t “get the character” doesn’t bode well for this production.

@ironchefharpo

You can buy that at the gap!?! I’ve gotta start going back to the mall!

I’m still not convinced Evans is “the guy,” BUT… Like others have said, this looks a lot better than I expected. It’s certainly a better look than the Green Lantern suit EW showed us a few months ago (hopefully that will get fixed up). Looking forward to seeing this next year!

I was worried when I heard they picked Chris Evans, he not a favorite of mine. But I appreciate the effort he has put in and I appreciate how humble he has been about it in interviews. So I’ll happily give this a chance. However, I do wish the star and red stripes were a little bigger on his costume. Otherwise not bad.

Well seems about 90% of the feed back is positive. And the interior photo’s look great. marvel Studios has made a smart move in early promotion.
Of course following the example D.C. did recently. But then again you can’t solely credit them for doing this.
Its a age old practice.

Four flicks to look forward to in the 2011/12 season: GREEN LANTERN, CAPTAIN AMERICA, THOR and the Peter Jackson/Guellermo Del Toro collaberation/adaptation of JRR Tolkien’s THE HOBBIT. I’ve got to make money in 2011 for these joints!

The more I see of Evans as Steve Rogers, the more of a believer I become.
