Oh Good Lord

Someone PLEASE tell me that this story about the upcoming Captain America movie is someone's idea of a joke.

PLEASE!

(Sorry, no Cap icon currently.)

Oh, for the love of God, please let that be someone at Marvel screwing with us. Because no. Just no.

I kept reading it going, "That really has to be someone just screwing with the reporter...right? RIGHT!?!?!"

The sad part is that I found this through someone thinking that it showed why John Barrowman would be great for the part. *facepalm*

*shudders* Just...no. Not for Steve.

Apparently not. That combined with the casting spoiler I read earlier today just ruined any chance I'd pay money to view this movie. And I was actually looking forward to it.

I've got a good idea who the casting spoiler is. Chris Pine, right? I keep hearing his name connected to the movie.

While I don't *hate* that idea, it could definitely be better.

It's sad because I've been looking forward to the movie. Now? It's going to be as bad as X-Men 3. I just know it.

Yup and yup.

I just don't think he's right for the part and what happened to finding someone new?

They really should have gone with an unknown because the character is so iconic. You don't want someone bringing in the baggage of another character to the part.

Exactly!

Or course they seem to take umbrage with the iconic part if they're going to go the USO route.

Catseye is amused by this WTFery.

I, however, am not. Holy crunchy hell.
