OH MY GOD CHECK IT OUT! As I perpetuate the problem by spinning a single picture of Chris Evans as Captain America running into something newsworthy. It really ain’t. But it’s Sunday evening. It’s slow. The snow is cold and the night is dark.

Hit the jump for the picture.

The internet doesn’t want me to play Black Ops today. As soon as I’m done posting about Garfield as Spider-Man, I come across a Comic Alliance article features a scan from Entertainment Weekly of Chris Evans as Captain America.

Hit the jump to check it out.

Pictures surfaced of Chris Evans rocking out as Steve Rogers today. One of the more ludicrous complaints I heard about him when he was announced is that he wasn’t “big enough”. Yeah well! I always thought he was ripped as fuck, and he seems to have stepped his game up since then. Don’t worry those of you who were worried he wasn’t going to bulge enough, he’s bringing it.

He’s pretty god damn swoon worthy. Hit the jump to check out the pictures from the set.

Frank Miller is my boy. If for only The Dark Knight Returns. I mean, he’s given me more than that, but that alone gets him into my Hall of Champions, Perverts, and Heroes. So, despite the fact that he directed a Gucci advertisement recently that looks like a federal-program sponsored version of Sin City, I’m going to try and remain positive.

The commercial stars Chris (Captain America) Evans, Evan Rachel (I Think She Banged Manson) Wood, and A Real Cheap Knock-Off Of the Sin City/Spirit set.

Yo, forget receiving the offer, Chris Evans is officially Captain America. I came across the news today over at Slashfilm.

Via Slashfilm:

The casting search for Steve Rogers aka the title role in The First Avenger: Captain America has finally come to the end. Marvel Studios and director Joe Johnston have hired Chris Evans for the role.

I’m not really sure how I feel about it. Since Saturday, I’ve come around on Evans. As countless dudes pointed out; including Pepsibones amongst others; Evans can act. Dude has chops in Sunshine, okay, agreed. Leave me alone about it. Don’t read this post and go WATCH SUNSHINE,

On the other hand, the dude just doesn’t…come across as Captain America? He’s more playboy than wholesome. He’s more sexy than commanding. Who knows. I could be completely, and I hope I am, wrong. I just can’t picture the dude playing an authoritative role.

Steve Rogers is capable of leading brosephs into battle against the Red Skull and Nazis. He’s supposed to give them hope and faith. At best, Chris Evans gives me a broner.

We’ll see.

Chris Evans as Captain America? Has the whole world gone crazy?! The dude who played Johnny Storm in those shitty Fantastic Four movies has been offered the helm of not only the Captain America but also the Avengers flick? And a thousand nerd-boys cried out at once.

If Chris Evans fancies adding another comic book character to his resume, then the coveted mantle of Captain America is reportedly his for the taking.Heat Vision warn that he’d have to free himself from an obligation to headline the rom-com What’s Your Number? with Anna Faris before he could take the role, but I’d imagine he’s already got Miles Massey types working on it.Evans was not part of Marvel’s original hit list for the role, but he’s apparently ridden in late in the day to win them over.

I actually dig Chris Evans. And I thought he was perfect as Johnny Storm. Unfortunately, ridiculous, quasi-brain-damaged-but-amusing isn’t exactly how I envision Steve Rogers. Oh well. Maybe they see something in him that I don’t. I mean, I dug his serious turn in Sunshine, so there’s that. I don’t know though, color me disappointed with a mild shade of inexplicable hopeful optimism. And uh, throw in some woeful resignation. And confusion. And a slight appreciation for Evans’ body, which is gorgeous.
