Trailer Breakdown: Captain America

Oh say can you see...

Evans Above

Here we go then…a pair of steel doors swing open to give us our first look at Chris Evans as Steve Rogers. And my, doesn’t he look scrawny? It’s all thanks to some nifty CGI trickery mind…that weedy frame won’t be sticking around for long.

Meanwhile, Stanley Tucci begins his voiceover as scientist Abraham Erskine, gravely warning Rogers that, “whatever happens…stay who you are.” Sounds as though life is about to take a get a little bumpy for our underweight hero…

Cap Fact: Poor old Steve looks a little peaky, but then, sickliness runs in the family. His old man died when he was just a child and his mum went the same way a few years later, bowing out to a chronic case of pneumonia.

      Apart from the flame thrower bit, this trailer looks pretty decent.

      I'm a little less worried now, but after going from the admittedly convincing scrawny Evans to the protein overload version they could have at least given him a better fitting outfit. 'Ok, he's not quite as big as we thought.' 'Well, I can do the alterations, but it's gonna take at least 2 weeks..'

      On picture 9, Cap appears to have the original, pointy shield on his back.

      Yes i know that he is meant to look all scrawny and that before his tranformation, but seriuosly that first pic looks like it has been over-done a little witht he CGI, yes i know its a super-hero film and isn't real life, but still you don't need to over do it.
