The earlier trailers did not give me a lot faith in the movie but the recent trailers have shown a more serious, action-packed movie. I'm actually looking forward to it and may plan a rare trip to the theater on opening weekend. As far as the other comic book movies, even though I am not much of a Marvel fan: Thor I could care less about but the others in the household want to see it. Captain America, even though I do not approve of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers (my campaign for Ryan McPartlin a.k.a. Devon "Captain Awesome" Woodcomb from Chuck fell through), looks like it will be the best comic book movie this year, in my opinion.
