The Hunger Games is busy breaking box office records, but Joss Whedon’s “mother of all superhero movies” should make quite a splash when it lands in May.

Is that a cosplay captain america?
You missed out the part where we also get a nice shot Scarlet Johansson’s breast
Your THOR image is billed as Liam – yeah, that is NOT Liam, that’s Chris.
Cap looks like he’s wearing a Halloween costume LOL
I didn’t miss the breasts. O_O
They better effin’ better get another costume designer for Cap 2, because this suit sucks donkey dongs.
Yeah I threw in an extra ‘better’, because the better-better get one!
Anyone has an idea why Thor has 2 suits during the film??
Wow that Captain America costumer BLOOOOOOOOOWS!!!!
wth is up caps costume…they should ve stuck to costume from the original movie
I’ve heard the Captain America costume gripes before . . . .but damn . . . this is the first time i see it hurting the overall tone of the film.
I knew Whedon would screw this up somehow.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he consulted Joel Schummacher for costume advice.
One costume won’t ruin the Avengers film nor will it kill Chris Evans performance as the man…Christ on a rubber crunch kids…it coulda been spandex…& had actual wings bulging outta his temples.
I really dug the Capt. America costume from the last film. I was surprised that made it fucntional looking and not silly looking.
I don’t know why they didn’t stick with it. It was perfect
You said it Peen!
Did no one even bother to look at the comic? Let’s review, Cap wears a bad ass chain-mail uniform. Not some fashion disaster asymmetric pseudo riot police garbage! The over-sized headgear with Batman brow is doing him no favors either.
I love Josh’s work but he really got cap’s look all wrong. As the moral compass and linchpin of the comics not a good character to get wrong. Cap sets the tone, If were not buying Cap then you have no Avengers.
This movie looks to clean, like some photoshop’d glamour magazine. I like the look of Iron Man and Captain America which was a little gritty.
Don’t care for a smiling Bruce Banner, Fabio Thor, or cheesy Captain America.
The movies not the characters
Captain America looks too cartoon like. The costume looks like something that would win 3rd place in a Captain America cosplay contest.
GAWD!!! I Hate Caps suit. It looks…terrible. It really does. Everybody else looks fine but Cap….*sigh*. They could’ve done better that’s all I’m going to say. There’s to much talent behind this movie for this suit to look like that…
Man, did they have to gooverboard with the color saturation? Damn!
Awesome pics but color tone makes the mood and I wish the film has a more noir color scheme. Whatever, I’m all in for this movie.
nice costume tinkerbell..
I like the costume of Cap.
Thor and Hawkeye have bad oufits too
yep indeed…
I like the suit, that’s exactly what Captain is suppose to look like.
I think people would agree it looks good on the page, but film is different. They should have kept the one from C A movie, they did good work on that suit to make it for film.
I like how there’s a picture of ScarJo’s awesome boobage and all you nerds talk about is the Captain America costume.
All women have boobs and that pic isn’t anything special. If anyone sounds like a nerd it’s you for being amazed at the hint of a tit.
The promo pic of ScarJo is enough to put my butt in a seat … well played, well played indeed.
Are we ever going to see THOR wear his helmet?
Scarlett must be wearing the ‘Wonder Bra’ but you can’t see any more than before.
Does her gun shoot anything but regular bullets?
Do Hawkeye’s arrow points explode?
Isn’t Nick Fury’s eye patch over the wrong eye?
So many questions………………….
it will have all the answers and more, like why Hulk turns green, and whatever happened to Ant Man and the Wasp.
is their only one battle scene? lmao
lol all the avengers and mark ruffalo… just mark ruffalo
i get that he is supposed to be the new hulk but why the hell would you make such a huge change from eric bana, who did an amazing job as the hulk, to mark ruffalo who, in my personal opinion, should not be playing an action role in a movie such as the avengers, although i must give him credit for doing a good job with shutter island, the man is not a action star he is not the person they should have chosen. there are plenty of diferent people they could get that could more than likely do a better job, but who knows maybe he will be great and make me eat my words.
Actually Bana to Ruffalo would make sense instead of Bana to Edward Norton and now Ruffalo.
Also… Were they trying for a Batman/Dark Knight comparison in that profile shot of Cap, hanging his head while standing atop of wreckage?
