Feige talks Captain America!

Nah, Sinese for Fury. I could totally see Schreiber as the Red Skull though.

no way is he the red skull.

The movie should be set entirely during W.W.II. At the end of the movie he seems to die, leaving the audience sad and surprised for the sequel that take place years later.
Its better they do two movies. One set during W.W.II to tell the origin of Captain America without rushing the story or having him die (get frozen) to quickly that it looks like he failed on his first mission.
Being set during W.W.II gives the film a sense of difference from many other superheros movies coming out.

Well, yes, but retro superhero films are not and never have been popular. Second, there's no way they're going to end the movie with the hero "dead", holding out for a sequel.

Okay then I like his idea it would sell especially if you got the right director, but your right Captain they won't end the movie that way. So how about this way Hugebear's idea then with this as the ending Cap gets frozen like the story goes, Present day research team find Cap thaw him out then end the movie. It leaves fans wanting to see what happens next and Captain America doesn't die at the end.

Besides you will need to makes this into a trilogy to much story to tell. Like How is the Red Skull still powerful when he should be in his 80s or 90s, what happen to Bucky. So the first movie based in WW2 era and the second and third films based in present day.

Fans-only can't generate a box office success and trilogy for Captain America is never been assured. Heck even Superman 2nd or Batman 3rd film is not a certainty.

First Captain America movie should have a cohesive story that should make non-comics moviegoers want to see more in a sequel. They don't jump ahead and think about trilogy, mind you.

A good question about Red Skull is if he will have a skull mask or an actual perminent disfigurement resulting in a skull like face.

yea i think if this flick actuall does get made, its best if they stick to it being set to the 1940s. Have the movie be a single story, that could poissbly branch out into a sequel [unlikely]. Captain america should stand for everything america stood for in WW2, he should be that everlasting American dream that never trully dies. His insipiration and battles with Nazis and with Red Skull etc, make him a legend and at the end of the movie he "dies" but what he stood for lives on forever, and then to the modern times...for a possible sequel.

You cannot make the first film on the assumption that there will be a sequel (in particular, since Marvel is planning an Avengers team-up film in lieu of immediate sequels). In particular, with a property like Captain America, which has rather dubious prospects at the foreign box office. The first movie is the only guaranteed shot you get, so I guarantee that it will tell both his origin and his return in the 21st century (which, may I remind everyone, is where most of his 616 adventures have been told). You also can't leave him in the cold and then unfrost him in The Avengers, because then you have to focus a considerable amount of the film on Cap's return to the 21st century, rather than on the other characters and the villain.

Ever since Lord of the Rings, every film adaptation has to be a trilogy for some reason. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see sequels, but you can't bank on them.
