Yes, the guy who played Johnny Storm in those HORRIBLE Fantastic Four movies is now going to play Captain America. And as I’m writing this, the internet actually broke in two as people are ranting non-stop on their LiveJournals about how bad this casting choice is, and they’re probably arranging a protest at Marvel Studios right now, so they can storm the shit out of the building and kill whoever did that decision.

So, what do the writers for everyone’s favorite non-updated, probably abandoned, comic book blog say? I actually went to the Comicgasm office after ages just to ask the other editors’ opinions, but RJ was too busy fucking hamsters, and Fiel and David were nowhere to be found. Also, the once-prestigious Comicgasm office seems to have been converted to a cardboard box (the ones they put washing machines in) with a Macbook propped inside. So I guess I’ll just write up my own opinion and say it’s for the rest of us.

I don’t exactly feel strongly about Chris Evans playing Cap, but I’m not exactly dancing for joy either. He does look the part, but he’s too young and goddamn his acting chops are, well, not exactly proven. I haven’t seen him play anything other than “douchebag fratboy.” I guess I’ll just have to wait until the first trailer and promotional pictures come out. So, internet, let’s not shed blood over this, it’s not worth-

Chris Evans Captain America

BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH

Are you guys okay with Chris Evans playing Captain America? Who do you think should play Steve Rogers?

Ade is the hero Comicgasm deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

    Stop confusing Hamsters with Gerbils!

    It won’t be hard to oldify someone so the looks won’t really matter, it’s his acting experience I’m worried about.

    I love Chris. I want to marry him someday.

    But I don’t think he’s the best for the role.

    If they wanted an All-American to portray Cap, there were better options. Besides, he's already associated with Fantastic Four.
