    I think most things with Nazi's in them in some form or another remind me of Indiana Jones.

    Well, Tommy Lee Jones does talk about sending Hitler to hell, but you're right that there's not a lot of swastikas in the trailer.

    I guess they dont want to lose the German film audience.

    I think the uniform is recognizable, even if his backstory is not. I think he has the edge over Thor (although people know Thor in the sense that they know there's a Norse thunder god, his comic is relatively obscure).

    For what it's worth, of those 90s comics, Spiderman had a mini-series with Shield and Black Cat and it included a flashback to Captain America and the Super Soldier Serum, so at least the kids in the 90s who watched those comics and remember trivial details will know the back story.

    Either way, I still see this having better general appeal than Thor simply because it involves World War II and Nazis.

    We've probably not seen any Swastika's because that's not the logo Hydra uses :) I pretty sure I caught a glimpse of the Hydra logo when they were all doing their Nazi.

    ^ They're all Nazi's...just Hydra division. I'm not sure if there are any "regular" ones.

    ^ It's not Hydra, it's Hydro. As in Colonic Irrigation.

    I would really go for a "Nick Fury: Agent of Shield" film for Sam Jackson. I doubt that it would ever happen but I think now they could pull off such a feature if written correctly and treated as a serious project. I know Jackson has a reported nine film deal with Marvel Studios. I know that I've had a few ideas of my own regarding a Fury solo film.

    The more I see of "Captain America: First Avenger" the more excited I am for it over "Thor". I think reading the leaked script for "Thor" actually hurt my excitement of the film. Probably the one case in a long time where that's happened for me.

    They ought to do Fury as a James Bond type movie - play up the gadgets a bit, but keep the costumed critters out of it as much as possible.

    Me too, That would be pretty cool. And from what I've he's supposed to play a really big role in The Avengers, so it sounds like we'll be getting he'll be getting quite a bit of screen time. Which is fine by me, I've really enjoyed the character.
