[blackdogdeek]

[Aikouka]

Nope, Joss Whedon. Got a decent resume.

Sheesh... is there even a need to link to his IMDB page on a nerdy forum?

 

[Nintendesert]

Where's Superman?

 

[Zeze]

In this movie saga, Capt America is probably the most useless hero out of all.

He's just an above-normal human strength kid with a shield.

You are a massive troll.

Cap's "strength" has always been as an expert tactician
It's why he's Field Commander.

Where's Superman?

Christopher Nolan is planning on bringing Superman in the 2nd movie

not to mention one of the best tacticians and leader. not to mention one of the best in hand to hand combat.

pretty much the batman of the marvel world.

pretty much the batman of the marvel world.

Apparently not good enough to be called Colonel America however.

At least Batman is also a genius billionaire playboy philanthropist.

 

[RPD]

Same feelings on the Hulk actor "meh", Norton did a great job, sad panda.

Looks pretty good so far, but do we know who the bad guy is in the film?

 

[NikolaeVarius]

Cap's "strength" has always been as an expert tactician
It's why he's Field Commander.

But he was never trained in field command. He's a normal guy who was made into a super human. ( According to the movie, don't kill me)

Unless that superhuman serum also boosted his IQ.

I say this as someone who hasn't read most of the affiliated comics. I flip through them while at my local game store though.

Also, getting hit by Mjolnir has got to hurt, even if the shield somehow is indestructible and absorbs 99% of energy going through it.

 

[darkxshade]

No love for Eric Bana?

 

[Newbian]

woot! Season 2 starts this month... and will feature RULK

Never saw rulk in the comics when I read them but knowing this starts up again is nice to know.

 

[Riverhound777]

Usually meh on these movies, wait for DVD. But I didn't realize Joss was directing?? Sweet!

 

[guyver01]

But he was never trained in field command.

Rogers' battle experience and training make him an expert tactician and an excellent field commander, with his teammates frequently deferring to his orders in battle.

Also, getting hit by Mjolnir has got to hurt, even if the shield somehow is indestructible and absorbs 99% of energy going through it.

The shield is a Vibranium-Adamantium composite.
Vibranium is a perfect kinetic energy diffusion compound. It absorbs 100% of all kinetic energy... and Adamantium is indestructable.

Never saw rulk in the comics when I read them but knowing this starts up again is nice to know.

RULK is of course...

Red Hulk... the alter-ego of General Thaddius "Thunderbolt" Ross

Nice, I can't wait to see that one. :thumbsup:

If Vibranium perfectly diffuses KE, how does it bounce?, any normal force exerted on the shield would get absorbed and it should just drop. Also, where does the energy go?

ITS A CONSPIRACY

 

[guyver01]

If Vibranium perfectly diffuses KE, how does it bounce?, any normal force exerted on the shield would get absorbed and it should just drop. Also, where does the energy go?

The energy absorbed is stored within the bonds between the molecules that make up the substance. As a result, the more energy vibranium absorbs the tougher it becomes.

 

[Pheran]

Norton wasnt available to play the Hulk?

I noticed that too. Too bad, I really like Edward Norton.

 

[irishScott]

Apparently not good enough to be called Colonel America however.

At least Batman is also a genius billionaire playboy philanthropist.

IIRC he remains a Captain due to his desire to lead a team in-field. Promotion would mean a more behind-the-lines position.

actually (nerd time!) in the comics he was never received the rank "captain" unless they did it recently. He was always PFC Steve Rogers

though in the movie from what i have read he is a Captain

 

[Kaekae]

It's going to be an interesting movie regardless. All those ego's............but atleast it has Samuel L Jackson. He's one bad ass!

 

[Newbian]

Yea, I had to google it but I figured it was that but it looks like it was introduced in 2008 so a long time when I stopped reading them.

I wonder if they are doing the skittle squad for hulks like I guess they did for the green lantern.

 

[NikolaeVarius]

The energy absorbed is stored within the bonds between the molecules that make up the substance. As a result, the more energy vibranium absorbs the tougher it becomes.

Wouldn't that imply the shield should be about 50,000 K.
