While some of these are humorously ironic (Captain America: The First Avenger), kind of adorable (The Avengers), some of these titles are just so completely nonsensical that seeing them dressed up in serious font with serious images is outright hilarious.

Considering the Captain America sequel hits theaters next year, it’s surprising we haven’t heard more about it. That’s most likely the efforts of the production trying to stay under wraps but what they can’t account for are actors giving interviews in which they spill the beans. Hit the jump to find out which evil-doer is back for Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

eFX is a movie collectibles company that prepared a number of really to die for items at San Diego Comic Con, including a set of Agent Coulson’s beloved Captain America trading cards, Thor’s formal helmet, and a few gorgeous reproductions of Captain America propaganda posters seen in Captain America: The First Avenger. But alas… only a tiny fraction of us can go to San Diego Comic Con, and everybody had to satisfy themselves with their Hunger Games propaganda poster instead. Just me?
But now eFX is swinging into production on a number of Avengers items, including the cards (in both bloody and not-bloody versions), which you can see after the jump.

Over the weekend we learned Marvel was narrowing down its search for a director of their Guardians of the Galaxy movie but the Captain America camp was busy looking for a leading lady. It seems Anna Kendrick, Imogen Poots, and Felicity Jones are the frontrunners to play opposite Chris Evans in Captain America: Winter Soldier.

If we are to believe the Hollywood wing of the internet, then we can assume that Emmy-winning sitcom and film directing brothers Anthony and Joe Russo will take the helm for the sequel to Captain America: The First Avenger. After beating out two other solid contenders for the position, the Russos are apparently thisclose to sealing the deal with Marvel Studios. And now, the Russos will prepare for the inevitable “small-to-big screen” comparisons to Joss Whedon, that guy who did that other Marvel movie that did pretty okay at the box office.

We know there’s a short list of directors for the sequel to Captain America: The First Avenger (that is not The Avengers), but now we can officially say that we’ll be seeing this movie in less than two years: Marvel and Disney have announced a release date for Captain America 2, and it is April 4, 2014! See? Less than two years! I was totally not joshing you!

The search is on for a director to helm the sequel to last year’s Captain America: The First Avenger, and while there are frustratingly no women to report on the short list, at least the final candidates are a very interesting group. And perhaps looking to the hype and buzz surrounding The Avengers, whose director (Joss Whedon) is known for his work on the small screen, Marvel has a pair of sitcom-directing brothers up for the job. Joe and Anthony Russo, Emmy winners for their work on Arrested Development and nominated for their work on NBC‘s Community, are strong contenders.

Emily Blunt, actress in The Devil Wears Prada, The Young Victoria, and The Jane Austen Book Club, has been up for some major roles in blockbuster superhero films over the last few years. Yet she hasn’t taken a single one and with good reason: She thinks the women in superhero films get the short end of the stick. Thank you, Ms. Blunt.

As of right now, Marvel is beating DC in the movie trailer round, with The Avengers trailer surpassing The Dark Knight Rises in views on iTunes. Marvel also has The Amazing Spider-Man coming up, so their collective hits far outweigh Batman. But what will this mean for the movies when they come out this spring and summer? Are we turning this into an imaginary battle between rival publishing houses and the success of their spinoff films? Answer: Probably. It’s not a competition, you guys … just kidding. It probably is.

"SHARKS. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the uterus." - A thing I just said in chat, sans context.

In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.
Susana Polo
But really the take away from this is that two seconds of quickly covered up Chris Hemsworth stomach makes some men feel objectified.
Susana Polo
Good to know that a broad trend across much of visual media has effected one man, in one shot. We can all go home, sexism is over.
Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.

The Voyager crew is in 1996 LA. Also Ed Begley and Sarah Silverman are there. I LOVE IT when Star Trek does cheesy time travel.
