this seems like a very odd project for Robert Redford to accept

Doesn't seem like that flying aircraft carrier is that difficult to take down.

That's one thing from the 60s Shield that you'd think would have been updated: the helicarrier.

But it does look real cool in print...

That guy is like a billion years old but he's still cool to see in a movie.

They should make The Natural 2: Steroids.

He's in a remake of "Castaway" or "Perfect Storm" coming up here. 2 hours of him floating in the water.

It is. He still has a great voice and while old, he hasn't previously sold out like DeNiro, Hoffman, Al Pacino, etc.

His penciling always seemed primitive to me or something. Not refined. Like a kid trying to copy Sal Buscema or something...

Looks good. I like who they are introing into the verse. Falcon was always a cool underrated character.
I was not a real big ScarJo fan util she started working in Marvel,wow she looks good in the black leather.
I was surprised by the last Capt movie so this one hopefully will do the same.
Rumor is that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is getting a spin-off already based on the female agent from the first Capt movie set in WW2 era.

Oh, goodness, me... Kirby began in the mid-30s, was the co-creator of Captain America, Boy Commandos, Love comics (that's right, the whole genre!), all the Marvel 60s characters. (Even Spider-Man, through a circuituous loop) Virtually everyone in the biz has Kirby as an influence (up until the 70s: Milt Canniff was a secondary influence). Including Sal and his brother John (who drew that Surfer image.)

Not that I begrudge your opinions. And Sal and John were quite good, as well. If you caught his work in the later 70s and above, he wasn't at his best. Fortunately he had moved off into animation by then

I get where your coming from but I dig some New Gods and OMAC Kirby as well.

I loved the New Gods. I was a big fan of Mr. Miracle,Escape Artist. Those stories were wild,even for a comic.

The 4th World was Kirby's finest later work. I love his Mr Miracle, New Gods, Infinity People. Jimmy Olsen was great but diminished by the fact that it was.. Jimmy Olsen. Which means Supes (who I just can't stand.)

But, even his later work at Marvel in the mid 70s were terrific. Even an "odd" title like Devil Dinosaur (done for an unrealized cartoon.)

A good find: "Bicentenial Battles."

I do not remember if I mentioned this before but Stan Lee and Bob Kane went to the same High School 2 years apart.

Not at the moment, just trying to be informative and non confrontational.
