		<description>Accents can be over come, Hew Laurie certain doesn't sound British in HOUSE now does he? Leo did an amazing accent in Blood Diamond. Hugh Jackson doesn't sound like an Australian as Logan.

I hadn't really though about Jason Statham before, and it's another nice idea, but I'd put him with the others who would be good but not as good as Daniel Craig


Face it, Daniel Craig has the attitude, the build, the height, the looks and experience in playing a rough and tumble kind of person. On top of that he has the charm and has yet to suck in any movie I've seen him in. He wins, done.</description>

		<description>The studio wants American, so Daniel Craig can go suck tea and crumpets.  I think DiCaprio could definitely pull it off, and well, surprising everyone who says he couldn't, but I think it would mean he'd have to really enjoy the role, from the start.  What about Kiefer Sutherland?

With the 24 status, he's got a following, he's American, and his build seems on target.  Plus, he's more mature and subdued, and passes off that "I'm planning here, let me lead" mentality.  Also, in an Avengers movie, I could see RDJ respecting Cap like Iron Man does in the comics.</description>

		<description>ryan gosling... great actor. can be buff. can be skinny kid. has played period stuff and action suspense stuff. was all-american heartthrob in the notebook. held his own as an actor with anthony hopkins in fracture. remember that, in wwII, steve rogers was still young like most of the soldiers in the war.</description>

		<description>Yeah but another A-List star would make 3 of them for the Avengers movie.. Downey, Norton and DiCaprio/Pitt.. way too much for a studio/director to handle..</description>

		<description>First off I really don't think Leo would make a good Cap't. 

I think the perfect choice for Captain America is Jensen Ackles. Why? Because he is a toughness about him after playing Dean Winchester. He has the great American acsent. He has the face for it.

I think the main villain needs to be Johann Schmidt/Red Skull. I think he needs to be played by Viggo Mortenson. Why? Because he is also a tough guy after playing in LOTR, History of Voilence, and Eastern Promises. He also has a great voice for it, and would be a perfect villain.

So that's my two choices for cast member:

Steve Rogers/Captain America- Jensen Ackles

Johann Schmidt/Red Skull- Viggo Mortenson</description>

		<description>I have to agree that Mark Valley has the look down pat. Don't know much about his work but if he has any kinda decent voice, they should place him under contract now and get him in the gym. The other Bond guy (I forget the Brits name) is also a solid choice if he could lose the accent. Leo is just too scrawny and Pitt is just not the SUPER hero type. But at least he would be better than DiCap. Anywho, just my two cents worth. Cap is by far the BEST Marvel character of all time IMHO. They better not screw this one up. I luv their casting for Spider-Man, Wolverine and the rest f the X-men even, Norton for Banner, and Downey for Iron Man rules all. Make the Cap movie something worth seeing PLEASE!</description>

		<description>As I've made clear before I think Leo DiCaprio as Captain America is retarded. 

I've heard that there is also some interest in Josh Brolin as Captain  America.

What about Aaron Eckhart as Captain America? He's got that old time look which plays well as someone who's a super soldier during World War II. 

I think if he bulked up, he would have the look of Captain American but then again I never read the comic books.</description>

		<description>WOW thats a most excellent choice the Jason Lewis guy. I dont watch SOTC so I nevah heard of him but for sure he got the best face for Cap A from the recommendations or ideas I read here. I dunno about how he acts but its also better to have a guy unknown to the comic audience and 'make' him the face of CA.

As far as Downey... everybody talks about him like he was a nobody or not Alister and whatever else. Downey has always been a great fuckin actor. He is no chump and he was huge before but after so much drugs and rehabs in the late 90s he fell outta the lenses for awhile. He always been good and in pretty much every movie he acts they got him in a complex role and when he is supporting he sticked outs sometimes more than the leading. He might be new to some kids and teens now but if you are in your 20s you should know who he is and definitely if you are in your 30s.

Same with Thor... would be cool to have a new face. Is always good to see a new guy that kick ass.</description>

		<description>This name came up in another forum and I have to agree with the guy that posted, it is a sound choice.  This guy plays a lawyer on Boston Legal who has a chiseled frame and the kind of look I would imagine Captain America to look like!  His name is.........  Mark Valley

Wiki
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0885090/

I would be up with Paul Walker or my new choice is Mark Valley!  On Boston Legal his character is an ex-marine turned Lawyer as well.  

Matt Damon as the Winter Soldier would be brilliant, I actually suggested that in another forum.  In the latest series of Captain America v5 Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier is a wicked character, hell he should actually have his own comic series soon cause he just kicks major ass!  So yea, Damon as BUcky would be awesome!

cheers</description>

		<description>Wow. A lot of dumb choices in here. Cap is my favorite hero of all time, so I'm just gonna do pros and cons. First, he CAN carry a movie alone. Cap comics have sold over 200 million copies. That's as many as Superman, and almost as many as Batman, the best selling of all time. 
Second: Matt Damon, who is all cons: no voice, no height, no presence; He'd be a better Bucky - especially as Winter Soldier.

Brad Pitt is straight NO-GO. For one, they need an actor who can ALSO do Steve Rogers, and Brad couldn't look small to save his life. So Leo has a bonus for him there, because Leo is perceived as little (even though he's 6ft, and was COVERED in muscle for Gangs of New York)

Leo is being reviewed as if he's still the tiny kid he was in Gilbert Grape or Titanic. He's older and much more muscular now, so he could work body-wise, and as an actor. He just doesn't have the right voice, or the presence as commander.

Personally, I don't think they need an A-List . Look at Superman and Iron Man. Brandon Routh was a nobody. Robert Downey Jr hasn't been in the spotlight for years, a lot of young people had no idea who he was before Iron Man. Do that again: get a B-list Cap, and surround him with A-listers.

I'm voting for Sex and the City/CSI's Jason Lewis. TV actor with excellent chops, chicks dig him, and if you google him and can't see him as Rogers (look at his JAW, for god's sake) then you don't read enough Cap comics.

Then you cast Gary Oldman as the Red Skull (A List), and find similar stars for Baron Zemo, add the intervention of Samuel L. Jackson at the end as Nick Fury, get a hottie like Natasha Henstridge or Elisha Cuthbert to play Sharon Carter, and show her off a bit. 

Bam. Blockbuster.</description>

		<description>Lets start with Captain America because we are all forgetting his character whenever we add DiCaprio. Who and what is Capt A? He is a freaken Army Officer... leader of troops. So whats the first thang he gotta have to pull it off... COMMANDING PRESENCE, leadership looks and one that DiCaprio wasnt born with... what we call in the military COMMANDING VOICE. Is that voice that when you stand in from of your platoon your men are eager to follow you to battle. DiCaprio by freaken far is no leader like that. Look at aviator, he was a leader... did his voice commanded to be follow... hell no!

PHYSIQUE wise... oh hell no! and no and then some no! People like to compare that Tobey bulked up for Spiderman... but Spiderman supposed to me agile, athletic, skinny but not like CA so yeah he pull it off! CA gotta be able to stand and without words you gotta think... super soldier body. Also look at DiCaprio's face... he has babyface and most important... HE IS NOT MANLY!!!

Someone said that Bale is also another sample of bulking up in lil time... are you outta your mind? He didnt just bulked up for Batman. He was even bigger in Reign of Fire! That guy had some massive gym hrs before Batman, his body didnt happen over night so its a poor point.

Who looks at DiCaprio and thinks of him as a manly man? He is a cute face for girls plus all real men when we think of DiCaprio think of the 3 hrs we spent with our girlfriends pretending that if we had been in Titanic we would have done like how he did... what a laughing riot!

Now MATT DAMON... good actor and he can bulk up and has the frame... NO COMMANDING VOICE and its not just there. Paul Walker has the physique but he sounds like a surfer DUDE in every movie. He doesnt have the commanding presence... not yet I would say.

Now the James Bond guy... his face is all wrong! Plus I doubt he can hide that accent of his plus you are talking about freakin CA and you gotta have someone that you can see carrying the flag and stand tall. 

YOU CANT HAVE AN UNKNOWN person doing CA because think about the Avenger movie... you gonna have Norton, Downey and whoever plays Thor leading this known actors and their characters. Plus he gotta look the part of leadership next to Samual L Jackson... anybody that put DiCaprio next to Capt America is not thinking who is he at the core. DiCaprio would be awful choice if not ridiculous choice.

The perfect choice or the best one right now it Mathew McConaughey ... he has the build on point! He has the jaw, he can pull the military leader... look at him in Reign of Fire. Also he is all-american kinda guy and when you think of him you dont think of Titanic. He can do American fighting machine. If you want more proof and you saw Reign of Fire, he is a total CA when he jumps with the battle axe to kill the dragon, thats a CA right there.

Now my Thor opinion... give it to Bratt. Everybody is all about he can t stand alone and blah blah blah! Well I guess none of you read comics then! Thor doesnt have to stand alone in any movie... why you ask?! If you make a Thor movie you have to have Odin guiding  the beginning of his story with his punishment to send him to Earth as a human... have Sean Connery do that! Then when he is on Earth and all that you gotta have someone that can pull Loki, that actor gotta be a real good one because Loki is all character. The fact that Thor is a God gives you the choices of having so many other Gods around him that will fill in the gaps if we worry about him as an actor. Thor has never led shit, he is just THUNDER and no gameplan other than lets muscle my way through it. Bratt can do the viking accent since he pulled that gipsy accent in that movie and he can do proud and cocky like Thor, plus the whole alcohol drinking. He can do the armor and he is 5'11" so after boots he could be 6'1" or 6'2". As far as look:

I will probably do a photoshoped art of Captain and Thor, just so we tracking on the same page... stay tuned!</description>

So whats the first thang he gotta have to pull it off&#8230; COMMANDING PRESENCE, leadership looks and one that DiCaprio wasnt born with&#8230; what we call in the military COMMANDING VOICE. Is that voice that when you stand in from of your platoon your men are eager to follow you to battle. DiCaprio by freaken far is no leader like that. Look at aviator, he was a leader&#8230; did his voice commanded to be follow&#8230; hell no!</p>
<p>PHYSIQUE wise&#8230; oh hell no! and no and then some no! People like to compare that Tobey bulked up for Spiderman&#8230; but Spiderman supposed to me agile, athletic, skinny but not like CA so yeah he pull it off! CA gotta be able to stand and without words you gotta think&#8230; super soldier body. Also look at DiCaprio&#8217;s face&#8230; he has babyface and most important&#8230; HE IS NOT MANLY!!!</p>
<p>Someone said that Bale is also another sample of bulking up in lil time&#8230; are you outta your mind? He didnt just bulked up for Batman. He was even bigger in Reign of Fire! That guy had some massive gym hrs before Batman, his body didnt happen over night so its a poor point.</p>
<p>Who looks at DiCaprio and thinks of him as a manly man? He is a cute face for girls plus all real men when we think of DiCaprio think of the 3 hrs we spent with our girlfriends pretending that if we had been in Titanic we would have done like how he did&#8230; what a laughing riot!</p>
<p>Now MATT DAMON&#8230; good actor and he can bulk up and has the frame&#8230; NO COMMANDING VOICE and its not just there. Paul Walker has the physique but he sounds like a surfer DUDE in every movie. He doesnt have the commanding presence&#8230; not yet I would say.</p>
<p>Now the James Bond guy&#8230; his face is all wrong! Plus I doubt he can hide that accent of his plus you are talking about freakin CA and you gotta have someone that you can see carrying the flag and stand tall. </p>
<p>YOU CANT HAVE AN UNKNOWN person doing CA because think about the Avenger movie&#8230; you gonna have Norton, Downey and whoever plays Thor leading this known actors and their characters. Plus he gotta look the part of leadership next to Samual L Jackson&#8230; anybody that put DiCaprio next to Capt America is not thinking who is he at the core. DiCaprio would be awful choice if not ridiculous choice.</p>
<p>The perfect choice or the best one right now it Mathew McConaughey &#8230; he has the build on point! He has the jaw, he can pull the military leader&#8230; look at him in Reign of Fire. Also he is all-american kinda guy and when you think of him you dont think of Titanic. He can do American fighting machine. If you want more proof and you saw Reign of Fire, he is a total CA when he jumps with the battle axe to kill the dragon, thats a CA right there.</p>
<p>Now my Thor opinion&#8230; give it to Bratt. Everybody is all about he can t stand alone and blah blah blah! Well I guess none of you read comics then! Thor doesnt have to stand alone in any movie&#8230; why you ask?! If you make a Thor movie you have to have Odin guiding  the beginning of his story with his punishment to send him to Earth as a human&#8230; have Sean Connery do that! Then when he is on Earth and all that you gotta have someone that can pull Loki, that actor gotta be a real good one because Loki is all character. The fact that Thor is a God gives you the choices of having so many other Gods around him that will fill in the gaps if we worry about him as an actor. Thor has never led shit, he is just THUNDER and no gameplan other than lets muscle my way through it. Bratt can do the viking accent since he pulled that gipsy accent in that movie and he can do proud and cocky like Thor, plus the whole alcohol drinking. He can do the armor and he is 5&#8242;11&#8243; so after boots he could be 6&#8242;1&#8243; or 6&#8242;2&#8243;. As far as look:</p>

		<description>[quote]dicaprio is a really solid choice. anyone who is dubious about his handling of an action hero need only think back to their trepidation entering the cinema to see matt damon in a bourne picture for the first time.[/quote]

In general men cannot stand Dicaprio, at least any real men I know frikkin hate him including myself.  Any man that was forced to sit through Titantic because his girlfriend wanted to see it will agree.  I guess if you want to make a chick flick or knock off a Asian movie script, Dicaprio is your man.  

Oh yes, there was no trepidation on my part the first time I walked into theater to see Bourne Identity as we all knew Matt Damon's work from "Good Will Hunting".  

Since Scorcese' cannot remake an asian script to film Captain America I doubt Dicaprio will be interested.  Oh yes, did I mention I dislike Caprio?  

Another thing, Brad Pitt has never been able to carry a movie on his own.  He is a co-star period.  He wont make a good Cap or Thor!  Even in fight club Norton was his catalyst.  Pitt doesnt have the chops to lead a movie like this.</description>

anyone who thinks he is too young has the wrong age for steve rogers in their head. really. solid choice if it's true, but i can't picture dicaprio saying yes unless he adored the director and script, and marvel hasn't made any heavyweight director choices yet.</description>

		<description>THINK ABOUT THIS!!!

If Brad Pitt plays Captain America then in the Avengers Movie it will be a Fight Club Reunion with him and Norton. They were brilliant together. 

Downey Jr., Norton, Pitt, and probrably an uknown to play Thor.

I'll take that!!!</description>

		<description>I think its obvious that nobody wants DiCaprio or Pitt. 
And I also think its obvious that Marvel wants A-list actors for their Superheros.   
We need to find a middle ground....  Stan (the Man), I hope your reading these comments.</description>
