Captain America: The First Avenger movie trailer
Paramount has released the first full trailer for “Captain America: The First Avenger” starring Chris Evans as Captain America, Tommy Lee Jones as Col. Phillips and Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter. Hugo Weaving plays the villainous Red Skull. 
This trailer gives us more of a look at the origins of Captain America, who was originally 4F teen Steve Rogers in Brooklyn during the Great Depression and the early days of World War II. This looks like the film will hew relatively closely to the comic-book origins, which I’m glad to see.
Captain America is my favorite Marvel character, and so far, it looks like Marvel and Paramount won’t disappoint with this one – but what do you think?

The Avengers trailer: Premake – what if The Avengers film had been made in 1952?
Found via Dave Gibbons, a brilliant trailer mashup exploring what an “Avengers” movie might have been like in 1952 – before most of the characters in the comic had even been created! Imagine the 1950s versions of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Giant Man, the Wasp and the Black Widow, coming to a 1950s theater near you.

Marvel reveals animated Avengers trailer
Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and Hulk will be featured in the new animated Avengers cartoon, which will air on Disney XD this fall. “The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes,” unlike the previous “Avengers” series, “United We Stand,” isn’t shying away from using the core Avengers characters. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
Fan-edited trailer for Spider-Man reboot with Andrew Garfield
Pretty cool fan-edited trailer for the 2012 “Spider-Man” reboot. I wonder who we’ll get as a villain? The trailer speculates it’ll be Electro. I am hoping it’s a Steve Ditko-era villain. So far I’m optimistic on Andrew Garfield – he seems to be a well-regarded young actor.

Sweet fan-made Green Lantern trailer
Check out this excellent fan-made trailer of a “Green Lantern” movie that would star Nathan Fillion (“Firefly”). My opinion? They should hire this guy and Fillion both to work on the movie. (I’m sure they’ll go younger, and someone not currently in a TV series for Hal Jordan, but wouldn’t Fillion be great at it?)

Surrogates trailer released
The Surrogates stars Bruce Willis and is based on the graphic novel by Robert Vendetti and Brett Weldele from Top Shelf. In “The Surrogates,” it’s 2054, and mankind experiences most of its life through surrogates, androids that the user can dial into and control. When the deaths of surrogates start affecting the humans controlling them – something that isn’t supposed to happen – it’s up to investigating detective Harvey Greer to unravel the mystery.
“Watchmen” opening credit sequence online
The opening credits to Zack Snyder’s “Watchmen,” in theaters now. I maintain this is one of the all-time great opening credits. EDIT: Not anymore. I was wondering if that was an official trailer/release or not; it appears perhaps it was not!
