Man, you really have to go out of your way to be a basement-dwelling pedant, huh? 😁

Of course—Batman has to be dark and gritty, and we all saw how much that mess turned out to be when they started playing with colors in the third and fourth installments.
That’s why Red Skull / Johann Schmidt needs to be a legitimate blonde Arijevac. You really should stick to the original material as closely as possible.

I have a profound appreciation for superhero cinema and comic book adaptations. I am eagerly anticipating what comes next. To be clear, however, there are certain entries that failed to meet my standards: Hellboy II, Ghost Rider, and Daredevil...

Personally, I thought Hellboy II was one of the better ones. But yeah—agree on Daredevil and Rider...

Solid choice—Chris Evans is perfect for this.

I'm guessing they're HYDRA members.

Those are the Super Bees, man. Seriously. 😁

At this rate, Ryan Reynolds will have played three comic book heroes by the time he's done with Green Lantern. :)

The uniform/costume/outfit is pretty much what I expected, looks alright to me... nothing crazy, just solid. 😁
I actually really dig that shield of his, especially with those metallic tones... it kind of reminds me of an old-school vintage motorcycle helmet or something. 😁

The suit is definitely going to evolve throughout the movie, and we’ll probably see changes in the Avengers films too. This is likely just the first or second version they're showing us.

Aha, that's a cool detail. You don't really see stuff like that with superheroes in other movies.
