Cap's Got a Pair of Writers

FYI~ AvengerNews posted this earlier: Cap's movie's got itself some shiny writers!

As we already know, Joe Johnston (The Rocketeer, October Sky) will be in the directors chair for the upcoming Captain America movie The First Avenger: Captain America. I think this is a good choice considering his filmography as well as the tone attached to a character like The Captain. Now, The Hollywood Reporter is, um, reporting, that the will be penned by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely (The Chronicles of Narnia). Hey, look, they won an Emmy. Now, I still have not seen either of the Narnia films, but I’ve heard some good things. At least they can handle a period film as well as something of epic scope. This is shaping up pretty well.

Iron Man II should do well. If it's anything like the Spider-man or X-Men trilogies it'll actually be BETTER than the original. But if there's a third one... (which there probably will be) then I think we have to worry.

If I had to guess which of those movies won't be very good, it'd have to be the Thor one... if they don't cast Karl Urban as Thor.
