I still think he could make a cool Avenger...hmm... Nick Fury perhaps? (I do prefer him over someone like Sam Jackson) Let's face it...if David Hasselhoff did a half-assed job of being Fury, The Rock is certainly a notch above.

I really dont want to see Dwayne Johnson as any superhero...even though he's a great actor for action movies, he's still always The Rock. He can't blend into a character at all.

Which reminds me...wasn't he supposed to play either Captain Marvel or Black Adam for the "Shazam!" movie in the works? I wonder where that went. Anyway, we are back to square one for the casting of Thor and Cap. So...what other options have we got?

Not sure if I posted in here before...but yeah, I'm down to discuss, recently having seen the incredible hulk, after iron man.
Obviously there's characters and events crossing over, Nick Fury/Shield making appearances in each film, some scene with a brief glimpse of a cap shield as well. Thor movie coming up, Iron-Man sequel, and "the first avenger" cap film. I've had a theory for a while now, starting with certain things I'd heard about the iron man film, and further confirmed through the Hulk. Obviously they're leaning towards getting the "avengers" together. but...I think it's more an adaptation of the Ultimates. The current 2 films have had their origins/stories set in the modern day, right? Trademark of the ultimate universe there. Sam Jackson as Nick Fury (not only bearing a similarity to the character in the comics, but also the character has made comments in the ultimates title about this being his top choice if ever an "actor" were to portray him) Both films a little dark, both with slightly different origins/chain of events than their original versions. But, the Hulk film drove this home even more. The Banner connection to trying out the the "super soldier syrum" (that's what made captain america) on himself after further experimenting on the long dead formula made the hulk - this is exactly as it happened in the ultimate universe. No Rick Jones, no gamma "explosion", just fucking around with a formula after trying to use gamma radiation to activate it, having to test it on himself after funding cuts/project rebirth cancellation. Throughout both the avengers/ultimates storyline the hulk has been a significant character, back and forth, at times at odds, at others a team member. Not to mention Stark being the one who largely "organised" the ultimates. Hell, even if you look at the Spider-Man film, there's a lot of similarities to the USM series in that too, could just be a coincidence, but it's not alltogether unlikely that these films are meant to be taking place in the same continuum. So yeah, I definately think they're bringing the Ultimate line to life, their flagship avengers title "the ultimates" has already seen the screen, Ultimate Avengers 1&2 (being pretty cool animated features) coming out prior. That there's my take. Oh and hey, at first when I heard about a cap movie, I wondered how shit they could possibly make it, but then if a film were done in the same tone, with a short back-story (prior to the "big freeze") intro, and a follow up into the modern day, that would be alright. The incredible Hulks second fight with Blonski while still in human (but syrum treated) form, shows how they could bring the Captain America character to the screen quite well, all they need to do is keep the style, boost the power, and add the shield. Ok yeah, said enough on it for now.
