Anthony Mackie has been cast in Cap 2. Possibly as The Falcon. Good choice.

I'm a pretty big comic geek (lapsed for the past 10 years...but I'm coming back strong this year), but I have NO idea who the Hell the Falcon is... Wikipedia, here I come.

Falcon can fly. Which makes him incredibly useful alongside a character who can fly and shoot missiles and not get hurt and a character who can fly and shoot lightning and not get hurt.

Yeah, he was probably worth cancelling one of the greatest superhero cartoons of all time to reboot the franchise with him in it. Who needs unique characters when there's a character who FLIES?!

Sarcasm over. Falcon is only being included to have a black character on The Avengers without having to make an entire movie for Black Panther, who is actually an interesting character and unique superhero.

Accidental racism! Or I'm racist for assuming that. I don't know.

I have The Hunter, but I have yet to pick up The Score or The Outfit (which is only $10 on Amazon right now). Have you read the original books? The first graphic novel followed the original book pretty closely, so I hope that fashion continues, as it's such a great series.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't they doing a War Machine spin-off with Don Cheadle?

I know its DC, but here is the trailer for Zack Snyder's Man of Steel; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-toIu5J ... r_embedded

It looks fucking stupid.

I really can't understand where they're gonna go based on that trailer alone. However, I hope it's Tree Of Life, but with Superman.

Also, the Kevin Costner narrated trailer is better.

....And speaking of which, it's kinda awesome that both of Superman's dads are Robin Hood.

Looks like Batman Begins, but with Superman. Which I'm sure will turn out great.

And HEY. The Falcon is awesome. You shut up about the Falcon. This conversation is still relevant, right?
