    Jon Benjamin is rumored to be the top contender for Rocket Raccoon.

    I have to say, that might be an even better fit than Fillion. Certainly better than Carrey or Sandler.
    his voice has enough recognition among the bro-types that flock to these blockbusters, thanks to family guy and archer, that i see this as a very realistic possibility

    Revenge's Emily VanCamp is playing Sharon Carter in The Winter Soldier.

    That is fucking perfect casting.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Yes, I know what a bro is *rolley eyes*

    It's just a weird statement, I think. Kind of reminds me of when someone here a few years back referred to the "Gears of War" games as "douchey dorm room games" or something.

    "Archer" is a pretty great show, by the by.

    Bros flock to superhero movies. Half the theater when I went to see TDKR and Avengers midnight showings were buff or beer bellied dudes in tight tshirts and backwards caps who said bro and dude a lot while we were in line. What part of what Acapelli said was incorrect?

    They make a lot of Ed Hardy-style Superman tshirts for a reason.

    It's a generalization. And from the ticket sales I'd say most everyone flocks to superhero movies, not just bros.

    I thought MC was big on not generalizing.

    My wife only goes to superhero films if I go; she would never go with her friends. I imagine this is true of a number of girls.

    I've always liked the fact that he showed up here and there in non-comedy movies. Finally, leading role!

    Great choice as Star-Lord, too.

    Would be cool if true. There's speculation that the Infinity Gauntlet will be the main plot of Avengers 2 (which makes sense since Thanos is the villain) and that since we saw the blue Mind gem in Avengers, we'll see another one in the Mandarin's possession in Iron Man 3, then one in Thor 2, one in Cap 2, one in Guardians of the Galaxy, and finally the last gem will be uncovered in Avengers 2.

    As long as Marvel stays on its game, Feige believes its pics will continue to do well in a genre that is far from a passing trend.

    "If it is a fad, it's one that lasts 30 to 40 years, as the Western did, because each one is so different," he says. "There's an opportunity to graft almost sub-genres onto them. Our first Captain America film was a World War II picture, and the next is a political thriller. They all have their own textures and patinas, and that's what is exciting about it."
    Sounds good.

    I'd love to see it go full Brubaker era Cap. Sounds like that's what they're trying to do at least.
