Man the effect they used to make him look small is horrible. Especially in the car scene near the beginning.
He looks like he should be the girl's ventriloquist dummy. It's just weird. He doesn't look "small" or "scrawny", he's like some kind of mutant man-child with one of those weird Discovery Channel diseases that ages him really fast.

An article on the difference between how Captain America and Green Lantern were marketed -
http://spinoff.comic...t-it-all-right/
http://spinoff.comic...t-it-all-right/
For some reason Captain America feels like the anti-Green Lantern in terms of promotion in a way in which I wouldn’t have expected; while both movies debut little over a month apart, Green Lantern was all about giving you as much as possible as early as possible, debuting the first image of the hero in costume almost a year before the movie’s release, as opposed to Captain America doing so six months later.
Similarly, the trailers for Green Lantern seemed designed to dazzle with special effects and colors as opposed to really giving any idea of the plot beyond “Ryan Reynolds is comedy screw-up who gets magic ring, things explode,” whereas each of Cap‘s three trailers have focused on the – for want of a better term – emotional journey the character has to go through to become the eponymous hero, with all the derring-do afterward implied more than shown.
The difference is marked, and telling in terms of the confidence the two studios had in their product, Cap‘s relaxed “Yeah, this is what we’re doing, you should come see” against Lantern‘s “OHMYGODHAVEYOUSEENTHISAIEE”; Cap's is inviting, while Lantern's was desperate.
There’s actually something odd about the feeling of still learning new things, or seeing new visuals, about a big blockbuster movie this close to its release; it seems so counter to the way these things are generally sold to us, with the “important” images and plot points signposted way, way in advance so as to already have that feeling of inevitability and nostalgia by the time the movie actually gets released (The Onion’s joke about the marketing of Green Lantern is astonishingly on the nose, in this respect). But it’s a refreshing, wonderful change: I found myself happily surprised to watch this latest Captain America trailer and thinking “Yeah, that looks better than the last trailer, which looked better than the teaser. I think I’d enjoy this movie.”

Eww, the car scene looks a bit off but the rest is good. Interesting read on the GL comparison too; both costumes are more colorful than most of the other comic-based movies, a gentler hand seems to work wonders.

This is the trailer that they're now showing on the new "Transformers 3" movie.Didn't see a thread for Captain America the movie, the First Avenger.
The new official 2 and a half minute trailer was just released:
Heroes are made...
People in my theater actually applauded when the slogan "Heroes. Are made. ----- In America." came on the screen.

Speaking of which, if you go see Transformers 3 in 3D... this trailer in 3D looks that much better. Especially when Cap throws the shield and it looks like it's about to smack you in the face.This is the trailer that they're now showing on the new "Transformers 3" movie.

I think visual effects artists have ran out of ideas on how to blow our minds with their magic...so they have moved on to making people look 10-20 years younger. Yea I agree some of those scenes look a bit off.

Trailer rocks!
I'm looking forward to this movie more than any of the other superheroes films this year.
Plus I have a mad crush on Hayley Atwell in the Duchess, especially after seeing her 'undress' in that movie.
Girl has a fine body and good pair of door knobs ;D

Thank you for the info gentlemen. And thanks to the power of google, I can verify 99% that pic is not from The Duchess, but another... with even more revealing pictures. Boink!
Speaking of google, found this too (don't worry it's G-rated) - Hayley Atwell talks about her role in Captain America:
The seventeen most endearing, wry, or improbable things the endearing, wry, and improbable star of Captain America said to us during a ninety-minute conversation:
1. I just randomly tackle people in the streets when it suits me.
2. When I met with the director of Captain America [out July 22], I hadn't seen the script, and I had to go meet him, and we spoke for like an hour. With a lot of those big films, they'll do that instead of an audition — and I prefer them, because I love a chat. I've found the messier the meeting gets, the more successful. You vomit on someone's shirt, it's probably going to work in your favor. Because you shared something: an intimate moment of drunken behavior.
3. When Chris Evans first took his shirt off on the set of Captain America, I just instinctively grabbed his man boob. They kept it in the film. So we did a couple of takes of me being really inappropriate with my hand on his pec for the duration of the scene.
4. I was wearing Spanx. A big old pair of Spanx. Really hot.
5. I'd been wanting to do an "action" film and of course I get cast in an action film set in the forties. [Note: Her oeuvre is mostly period films: Brideshead Revisited (2008), The Duchess (2008), and last year's Starz miniseries The Pillars of the Earth, which earned her her first Golden Globe nomination. In Captain America, she plays a British military agent.]
15. Tommy Lee Jones [who plays an American military officer in Captain America] is really scary. Because he'll take his time answering a question. It feels like he's ignored you. He does it long enough for you to feel completely humiliated. I said hello to him and then there was a long pause and then he said, "Do you like opera?" He's got a very, very dry sense of humor.
17. I'll be a wreck when [Captain America] premieres. I'm gonna grow a beard.

Check out the musical score to Captain America by Alan Silvestri (known for Forrest Gump) -

Pretty damn sweet!
Now that's a score for a real film, and not like just some popcorn flick you'll hear in Green Lantern or Transformers.

If you guys are gonna do this then post some pics!Free bump homie. So all the boys in the yard can drool over hayley
Can't really find that many "poster" pics of Hayley Atwell like you would find googling a Jessica Alba or something, since she's not very well known yet.
Though she seems like the nice girl type whom I may actually want to sin with.
She does have a look that reminds me of Jennifer Garner though, and looks much different with her natural hair compared to her Peggy Carter hair in Captain America.
Nice pair of knockers too.
Like the backdrop.
They will likely turn her blonde in "Captain America 2" with her more modern look, when she will be portraying Agent Sharon Carter.

Early Critics Screening of Captain America: The First Avenger, said to be better than Iron Man (2008)
The Chris Evans headlining film about Marvel's Star Spangled Avenger has gone through it's first critics screening and word on the street suggests it's going to be a hit.
Late last week several critics from long-lead news outlets (movie magazines, newspapers and other print mediums) attended a screening of Captain America. Though no official reviews or opinions were shared publicly, word has gotten out that the film was unanimously approved.
Surprisingly, the film was noted to be more akin to Marvel Studios' 2008 hit Iron Man as apposed to the company's other 2011 release, Thor; with some of the critics even saying The First Avenger's quality tops that of their Armored Avenger.
Captain America: The First Avenger stars Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Tommy Lee Jones, Stanley Tucci, Haley Atwell, Sebastian Stan, Dominic Cooper, Toby Jones and Neal McDonough.
The film is directed by Joe Johnston (The Rocketeer) and is scheduled for 2D and 3D theatrical release on July 22nd, 2011.
