Hot Toys Captain America

[Wor-Gar]

Of the 3 (Thor, Lantern, Captain) I've been betting that the latter would be the best -- purely because they were clever enough to go with the period angle (Superman reboot would do well to try this).

But I have my concerns about Johnston. A great concept artist, but he's never been a great director; his films play slow and not very exciting (and yes, including Rocketeer). But you never know.

I'm always up for seeing a good movie.

I bet you had a lot of fun as a kid!

I finally watched Rocketeer this year

Umm....I didn't like it, maybe it's me...I don't know

Anyways, if he delivers an awesome Cap movie, I will be blown away with just the sheer shock of it all.

I think most will.

You haven't heard, the 2 screenings that were done received standing ovations....I believe everything I read you know.

Where did you read the screening information?

Where did you read the screening information?

One was at Bad Ass Digest

The other was at Slashfilm

Short blurbs on word from screenings was that it was really good.

I was joking about the standing ovations though

Who knows, maybe they did stand up to fart, that's good enough for me....

When it's an iconic character like Cap, the goodness of the movie is secondary to the goodness of the figure.

That about sums it up

For those interested in a Motorcycle, I have found one that is close.

Search for "GI JOE WWII US ARMY HARLEY DAVIDSON DISPATCH"
Available on Ebay and Amazon. Just scored one for $49 shipped on Amazon ([ame="https://www.amazon.com/Harley-Davidson-Joe-Figure-Motorcycle-PACKAGING/dp/B0027A7DX8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1308683801&sr=8-1"]here[/ame] is a different store). My plan is to take it and customize it to perfection!

I saw this one as well, but this is an Indian, and from what I can tell Cap is def. on a Harley.

My memories of The Rocketeer are better than the actual film.

The cool art deco poster was better than the film itself.
