You think this letter on my head stands for France?

Chris Evans is officially the new Captain America!

I'm actually very excited (though I was 50/50 with Mike Voight) and its really cool that he landed the role, he deserved it! He'll be joining Chris Hemsworth, Edward Norton, Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Downey Jr. in The Avengers movie and The First Avenger: Captain America, as well as 9-movie contract deal with marvel enterprises.

Good job!

Y'know what I do when I have the weight of the world on my shoulders? I shrug.

We've reached a "taking superheroes seriously" age in cinema. With the last couple of X-Men movies, the Dark Knight, Iron Man, Watchmen and The Incredible Hulk,  superhero movies are finally given more depth and are targeted to a much wider audience, being usually moody and very intelligent.

I'm a superhero movie fan myself, probably closing off my top 3 favorite movie genres - the other two being drama and documentary - and I can geek out really bad at times over upcoming movies (like Iron Man 2!). On that note, I'd like to admit that one of my favorite superheroes is Captain America.
