America's original hero out July 22, 2011
The first full trailer of this summer’s upcoming Captain America film, The First Avenger, was released today. In case you weren’t prepared (which I’m thinking most of you are), there’s a windfall of Marvel superhero movies all coming out to set up the inevitable Avengers mega-blockbuster, and along with Thor this summer will belong to Captain America. Will these releases be among the stellar crop of comic book films (X-Men 1 & 2, Iron Man, 300, Watchmen, etc), or will they just be disposable origin stories to set up the Avengers flick? I guess we’ll see…
