CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till release

Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

I like those stylized bikes the Hydra agents are using.

Really? I always find it lame in comic book movies when villains have time to paint a fleet of vehicles to match their persona.

If you're gonna be a super villain, you might as well go all out.
Why wouldnt they have the time or the resources? Unlike most superheroes, they aren't on patrol everynight. They have down time and money to burn. Gotta be all sorts of "blackmarket" and underground autoshops that do custom work in the Marvel and DC universes. I know in the DCU there's a tailor who specialises in villain costumes, so why not a custom auto guy?

In Marvel, they do have a guy who designs their tech in return for money. The Tinkerer, in fact he probably designs their transportation too.

^ That's a relatively new retcon...I believe it was revealed in "Secret War" that the Tinkerer supplied high technology to the highest bidder. One of the reasons why Fury put together his team of undercover heroes in the first place.

It was revealed in an interview last month I believe...posted in this thread somewheres...
that Hydra are a secret division under the Red Skull's command
. so I would think they would have all the necessary funding and resources the Third Reich could provide them.

Makes sense, originally Hydra was formed by a Nazi survivor with other leftover Nazis helping him. So they just do it while WWII is on in this case.

I'm pretty sure that guy in the second pic is the stunt double, not Evans.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

as I understand it, the bike is a modern Twin Cam Harley softail springer done up like a WW2 era Harley 45. Oh and all these shots are of the stunt double, no one has any pictures of Evans in the costume yet.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

Yeah it's been confirmed all of these shots are of the stunt double...

Thank you, costume-people, for restoring the Wings at least.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

I like how the wings are painted on as if its an homage to how pilots painted logos/chicks etc on the sides of their bombers. It's era specific even in that sense.

I'm refraining from getting into specifics about the costume because I don't want to incite violence lol. People are obviously very passionate and emotional when it comes to superhero movie costumes. While I think they're important they're not exactly the be all and end all to a good movie.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

See that's what I figured they were gonna do with the wings and just paint them on.

Personally, I'm rather sick of Hollywood costume designers throwing out the comic book outfits and replacing them with overdesigned monstrosities that look 10 times stupider.

^ Yeah this is why I'm refraining from commenting.

It's nice they're digging up actual characters instead of making up new ones.
