There’s been a slew of comic book movies since the run away success of the Iron Man franchise, and personally, as someone who enjoys classic comics, I’ve found they’ve all been pretty horrible (Iron Man 1 aside.) Marvel has just released the first full length trailer for Captain America, and I have to admit, it got my hopes up a bit; the casting, war-time art deco atmosphere, and -from what I can tell- the small glimpses of the storyline all have me thinking that this could actually be a pretty amazing movie. Hugo Weaving is an actor I’m happy to see more of as Red Skull, and good ol’ leatherface Tommy Lee Jones is another favorite. Here’s to hoping the new Captain can live up to the classic comic legend.
