I roll worth Cap...

fight the good fight

Gotta go with any side that has Vision!!! Man I can't believe I lived long enough to see Vision in a movie. It's great that Stan Lee has lived to see the greatest era of Marvel and his creations come to life. I still have vivid memories of reading my 1st comic book. My grandmother had bought them for me. I thought being a comic book artist was going to be my career. I wised up and moved to other more lucrative endeavors but the love is still there. Passed on the love to my children and now can't wait to do the same with my grandson.

Vision/Adam Warlock are two of my favorite characters and it looks like they took aspects if both characters to form the movie version of Vision. I only wish that Marvel was free to throw Silver Surfer into the mix. It doesn't look like that's going to happen for a while. The best thing about these movies, good or bad, is that these stories are being passed down to a younger generation.

It is a golden era in Comic Book movies indeed.

Got Avengers and Justice League and Daredevil and Flash...and done properly!

Just enjoy them while they're here and plentiful.

That said I got Cap, because of right, principal, and what he stands for. I hope that muthaF#cker Crossbones doesn't do him dirty in this movie!

I don't know for sure, but I have a feeling Adam Warlock may make an appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy 2, since it's been rumored his evil alter ego, Magus, will be a villain.

I've been dying to see Silver Surfer done properly on the big screen. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer doesn't count.

Surfer is one of the few heroes powerful enough to even make Thanos flinch!

I never go into comic books as a kid.

Im not sure Im qualified to render a vote.
Melo is an allstar player on his way to the HOF and has made nearly $200 mil on and off the court.
CHuckbuck makes comic book polls on a knicks site.
Yeah, Melo is a loser.

Irrelevant, GTFO this thread.

Back on subject, you just know some hero is going to bite the bullet in this movie.

Captain America dying in his own movie...that'd be something.

If it is Rogers dying, then Bucky or Falcon will have to take over the Captain America mantle.

No offense to either, as they're both capable in their own ways, but there is only one Steve Rogers.

What about shared wins for each?

When I was a kid, I spent my hard earned pocket money on a captain america comic, only to find he didn't even appear in it. I've never forgiven him, and have harboured a grudge ever since. I support Team Iron Man 100%!

Good reasoning!

You must be talking about when Sam Wilson took over the mantle.

Either that or it's an analogy for Melo's entire loser tenure as a Knick!

Gotta go with Captain America.

He's super efficient. Knocked out Hitler with 1 punch!

Team grown-ass man.

Enjoying comics has nothing to do with being juvenile. Women watch soap opera and reality TV and they are usually the ones crying "you still read comics?".... there's great story telling and artwork. Plenty of reasons to enjoy.

Grown Ass Men have always been the ones creating the very comics young people love. Cartoons were always made for adults as much as kids. It's a great way to stay connected with kid inside you and also with your own young family members. I enjoy with my sons and daughter and soon with my grandchildren. It's GREAT!!!

When I was a very young kid my Mom, who is an artist, drew me the most amazing version of Batman I had ever seen. It blew me away and I was hitting my drawing board hard from that day on trying to be just as good. It's amazing what kind of motivation it can give a young person and how that can focus a young mind.

Yup.

Don't read them, (did somewhat back in the 60s), but they are a good form of escapism, and they even introduce modern social issues and conflicts at times.

Not sure of a direct link, but perhaps the graphic novels being written today owe a debt to them.

Great to see that Hollywood has been able to bring them to the big screen in a way that I never would have imagined when I was young. Loved the first two Chris Reeves Superman movies years ago, but the seem campy when compared to the CGI stuff they can throw at you these days.

Wonder if they will reach a comics into movies saturation point at some time in the near future?

I think if the quality remains high that you can keep moving with these story lines. Comics don't get boring as long as the writing keeps great story lines going. They're getting better and better at making these movies.

LOL at insinuating reading comics or enjoying Comic book movies are considered juvenile!

I guess all the people that played basketball as a toddler and are now in their thirties, forties, or up should just hang them up! And the end of the day it's just a game.

Stupid logic. Comics are just another form of storytelling.
