I am eagerly waiting for hours of delicious, delicious glee at fanboys' expense when they do. Watching presumably straight guys fight over which actor is hot enough and perfect enough and glorious enough to embody Captain America's manly perfection is the best free entertainment imdb's discussion pages have ever provided.
I believe Velithya (http://community.livejournal.com/cap_ironman/62937.html) put it best. Who wouldn't go for Captain America?
I think it's just that Steve is so iconic. With other characters, you can fudge it. So Tony's a little old, and his eyes are the wrong color. The attitude and acting let RDJ nail him. But with Steve, nothing will do but perfection.
People have flounced from the imdb board over the "who is perfect enough to be Cap" fight. They've declared that they will "leave comics fandom forever!" if a given actor does or doesn't play him. They've trolled other posters by linking to faked news articles that claim that the actor of their choice used to act in gay porn. It's glorious.
Wait. I'm confused. I thought that having acted in gay porn could only make Cap!Actor even better.The imdb board people are a strange and confusing bunch. (I am heading over there to search for the joy as we speak. Such wank needs to be witnessed.)
