I don’t know what to think. With how great “Iron Man” has been, I’m impressed with Marvel. Then you think about Spider-Man 3, Fantastic Four… the Punisher… the it makes you go… Hmmm… I feel they’ve miscast Captain America as well. These are men, not boys. Chris Evans is not Captain America. They should’ve cast Aaron Eckhardt or something like that. He looks the part AND he’s a good actor. ---

I was pulling for Mark Valley myself. But I heard that Evans didn’t do too bad in the Losers though. You never really know how these things will go. I look at that picture of Thor and I have trouble seeing George Kirk(Star Trek being the only other thing I’ve seen Chris Helmsworth in) in there anywhere. ---

> [@TheRealPonyboy](#): > > I don’t know what to think. With how great “Iron Man” has been, I’m impressed with Marvel. Then you think about Spider-Man 3, Fantastic Four… the Punisher… the it makes you go… Hmmm… Have to remember that Marvel have had the same thoughts about those movies too. Hence creating Marvel Studios. Most new Marvel movies, Marvel has a much better grasp of the movie making. The three you listed are terrible movies, cause the studios behind them, imo have no clue. And they keep making them so they can keep hold of the rights, and make money off the ■■■■■■ sequels. I am skeptical about Chris Evans being cast as Cap. From the resent interveiws with Evans that I have seen, he is a ■■■■■■ with not a great deal of knowledge about the character, But… It is easy days. So as always final judgement is in the cinema. ---

The criticism of _Spider-Man 3_ is valid as it was a dissappointment compared to the other two… but the first _Punisher_ movie was pretty good, surely leaps, bounds and a million bullet casings better than “War Zone”… and _Fantastic Four_ was pretty good (in their case I say blame the source material, the Fantastic Four has always been one of Marvel’s weakest titles/properties). ---

Maybe I was a little too harsh. So I will rehash and say terrible ‘loosely’ It was a rushed post as the pub was calling 🙂 Now when you say first Punisher… [http://www.virginmedia.com/images/worstcomics-punisher-431.jpg](http://www.virginmedia.com/images/worstcomics-punisher-431.jpg)🙂 To be honest I love the Thomas Jane Punisher, I thought it was great. I guess my first thought was the WarZone film when talking about those three films. Cheers for your discussion Ben. 🙂 So lets talk Thor huh. ---

as much as ive grown to despise [Marvel comics](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/marvel-comics), how could anyone not be interested to see what Kenneth Branagh does with a comic book movie? Especially Thor, who I never thought could make it in his own stand-alone film. ---

Especially Thor, who I never thought could make it in his own stand-alone film. Definitely… this is going to be all sorts of interesting. I’m definitely liking the costume they’ve gone with in that promo photo. ---

In fact one of the only awful superhero movies that ISN’T in my collection is [Captain America](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103923/). The rest are made-for-TV which were never officially released, but I have seen most of them (e.g. The Hoff as Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.E.I.L.D.) Although looking at the photo, I bet being in that suit of armour all day might make him a thor Although I’m glad they gave him a beard, man him up a little bit. ---

Thank God someone clarified the punisher matter. “The Punisher” with Thomas Jane was a great movie, “War Zone” should never have been made. ---

> [@Krenzy](#): > > Thank God someone clarified the punisher matter. “The Punisher” with Thomas Jane was a great movie, “War Zone” should never have been made. I actually felt the opposite. I think the Punisher would’ve made for a better movie as a happy medium between the two. What I hated about the first one was made up for in the 2nd film. I also can’t stand Travolta as a villain. For me, I rarely buy into him on screen. ---

The trailer told me all I needed to know about War Zone. That scene with the chandelier? Come on. ---

I heard there was an extended cut of the 1st (Tom Jane) version. I might like it better after having seen it… although, as I said, Travolta just doesn’t work for me. ---

Entertainment Tonight just had a set visit video recently. I just found it on [Superherohype.com](http://Superherohype.com). It was mostly an interview with Natalie Portman and Chris Helmsworth but there were a few new tidbits on there. You get your first look at Anthony Hopkins as Odin and a shot of Heimdall I belive. It definitely has my interest peaked.
