Does Anybody Want Some More Captain America?

A new trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier was released today, attached to a more than 3-minute scene from the film. I don’t usually post clips, but I watched and liked this one, and the new trailer is as good as the others have been. Plus, if you want your first look at Batroc the Leaper, here’s your chance!

Looks good to me!

Somebody’s Going to See the LEGO Movie!

It’s me! I’m finally going to see The LEGO Movie this weekend! Took me long enough. But speaking of LEGOs, movies and Captain America…

I wish I was such a talented LEGO artist. If I had unlimited time, unlimited funds, and an army of super models to follow my every command, I think I’d spend all my time making awesome LEGO video shorts. Thank you, Antonio Toscano, for this bit of fun.

Paul Bettany as the Vision? Alright, I’ll Buy It

The superhero movie rumor mill is grinding away today at full force, with news out of England that Paul Bettany will be playing the Vision in Avengers 2: Age of Ultron. Bettany, if you recall, has been the voice of Tony Stark’s computer/butler J.A.R.V.I.S. in all of the Iron Man movies, as well as the first Avengers. And the Vision is an android from the comics. So it would kind of make sense for the artificial intelligence to just upgrade into a robot body.

I can see the resemblance, especially in the eyes

Right now, this casting is all rumor, I think. It’s all over the Internet today, but Marvel hasn’t said anything concrete. It was reported in The Daily Mail, who said they saw Bettany undergoing some make up work on the set. Then it got confirmed by Variety. I don’t usually like to post these sorts of rumors, but it’s a slow news day, and I actually really like this idea.

Join me for more after the jump.

Thor: The Dark World is Still Good the Second Time Around

Good times, good times; nobody does it like Honest Trailers and the Screen Junkies. I recently watched Thor 2 again the other day, and it definitely held up since November. Very entertaining film, though clearly most of the jokes and twists were better the first time around. Still, enjoy this bit of laughter, friends! And why not check out the Honest Trailer for the first Thor while you’re at it?

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Finally Explains the Winter Soldier

There’s no doubt that ‘The Winter Soldier’ is a badass character name, but is he enough to hang an entire movie off? Marvel’s going to find out this Summer in Captain America: The Winter Soldier! At least the new trailer, aired during the Super Bowl, starts to introduce the villain to audiences.

Trailer looks as awesome as the first one! This film definitely stands to be a good one, I hope. And I also hope that audiences really dig Winter Soldier. I think he has potential when it comes to battling Cap, though I’m sure there’s another, bigger villain waiting in the wings. I also hope Falcon doesn’t come off as just a silly sidekick.
