OK, the AoU teaser during SHIELD was a lot of fun. It looked like Mjolnir actually moved a bit for Steve which I loved.
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I thought I saw that too, Kalshane! Isn't he able to pick it up in the comics? I mean, Steve seems like one of the dudes who WOULD be close to worthy.
Someone on Twitter suggested Anna Torv for Carol, which I could go along with. (Although I think I've read, like, four panels of a Captain Marvel comic....) But still, Katee Sackoff seems so perfect for it, and lack of height certainly didn't interfere with casting RDJ.
Thanks to PMM, now I need to add: 5) I want to see BC do a comedy.
Penguins of Madagascar!
Though technically, that would be hearing him do a comedy.
P-C: Yes, he's done it before. I'm not super-versed in the comics lore, but I believe at times Mjolnir's measure of worthiness depends on the situation at hand. Which is the writer's answer for "Why doesn't so and so just grab Thor's hammer?" all the time. As for the teaser, Thor's grin fading when the hammer twitched was great, too.
Yes -- the look on Thor's face was PRICELESS. But I couldn't stop laughing at Tony and Rhodey. "Are you on my team?" "Just represent. Pull!" Also LOVED Black Widow's comment. "That's not a question I need answered."
I also totally think there's sparkage between Natasha and Banner. I'm good with that.
(Do we need to whitefont this? It's not a trailer, but it is a publicly available clip.)
I still wish they'd gone the route of having Steve pick it up and move it offhandedly to get at a coffee pot or something, before being aware that there was anything special about doing so.
Billytea, are you familiar with Cabin Pressure? It's a fantastic radio sitcom featuring Cumberbatch (along with the rest of a small, brilliant cast) doing comedy. It's the best thing.
Someone on Twitter suggested Anna Torv for Carol, which I could go along with.
That would work for me.
Matt- That would have been nice. I wonder if in that scene Cap can't pick it up because he doesn't believe he can. He was approaching it like it was a feat of strength whereas maybe if he had just tried to pick it up, it would have let him.
