I got to see this two nights ago at THE ROCKETEER 20th Anniversary screening, introduced by director Joe Johnston… so there. Heh. Actually, as much as I’m excited about the Cap movie, I’m not terribly thrilled with this trailer, only because of the Tool music and noisy quick cuts. There’s very little nostalgia going on here, but I also understand Paramount and Marvel wanting to attract a younger crowd too, which can be hard to do with a World War II movie. I’ve been saying all along that I have tremendous faith in Johnston, and every photo I’ve seen and description I’ve read tells me we’re in for a real treat. Check out the new poster above and trailer below (courtesy of Yahoo) and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
