There You See

'Captain Kirk' To Play 'Captain America'
From 'Captain Kirk' to 'Captain America', it looks like 'Chris Pine' is likely to wield the all American shield in the upcoming 'First Avenger: Captain America.'



I've been saying for a while that Star Trek was supposed to be a Jeffersonian arguement. Unfortunately Hollywood obsessed with retreading history assumes FDR was a better Sentinel of Liberty and may choose Pine to be their Cap as if to further disassemble historical context. I guess the Red Skull will have to be a greedy capitalist McCain fantasy for Marvel's newly revised continuity. Also Captain America will have to invent the 9/11 emergency system and slide over plenty of car hoods.
