JOHN CENA HAS GOT THE PERFECT IMAGE TO PLAY AS NOBODY COULD THE BLUE AVENGER.
PUT HIS HAIR BLOND AND YOU'VE GOT THE REAL CAPTAIN AMERICA.
LOOK HOW HE MOVES!

John Cena should not play Cap. He is a no talent hack of wrestler and his gimmick is stupid. Cena as Cap would be a disaster.

John Cena is shorter than Jared the Subway guy.Brendan Frazier is the best acting tall guy.Ving Rames as the Falcon!

Eric Dane. Definetly. Has a name (Grey's anatomy) but isn't known enough to have any roles attached to him yet. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0199312/

I don't think he's supposed to be as big as Cena, in my head he has more of an athletic build...
Posted:  21 Mar 2007 15:15
That Eric Dane dude looks like he could do it.

I just had a look at that pic of Eric Dane and I must agree, he looks like he could do a good job.

Checked out John Cena, not for me.

One of the guys in the "unit" doesn't look to bad for the part either.

http://www.animationmagazine.net/images/articles/captain_america_150.gif  I've been going over this in my "mind" such as it is, since I looked at the sight. I can't think yet of anyone, but what I hope is they go wit "quality" of acting talent rather than looks "alone". A Kiefer Sutherland, a Nick Cage, the problem is that most people I know who could do it without another disaster of the "Reb Brown variety is that their age could be a problem. If they're going to do a Cap movie, the last thing I want to see is to have it in any way be substandard. That's why I'm scared of a wrestler. It might be best if they evn went with an unknown. I mean if a "Toby Maguire" can be found (as the Spider man movies are probably the best super hero movies out there) it would be great, but Cap is a totaly different body type, and also needs to be able to give an inteligent performance. I guess, keep talking, and hope "they" don't screw it up.

I think it's time producers in Hollywood give to us, the comic book readers, a real superheroes movie and that means a bodybuilder starring it.
Why?
Look at the palladin picture and those arms, pecs, delts,...
Oh my GOD, it's John Cena with the cap's suit!
I know it's a pity to see just a good physique for a character so emblematic as Captain America, but the matter is i'm fed up with those skinny Oscar challengers, not too talented, what the hell, who take a few months of bodybuilding in orther to try to look as a comic superheroe.At this moment no one has got it, i'm not impressed with no one since the 70', not just physically but also acting.
So why not get a try for a muscleman with a few months of actor's school?
SEMPER FIDELIS.

Hey Tim who was the guy who played the Flash in the tv series?? He was a good sized fella wasn't he?? And I guess he could act he was on the show for a season or four episodes which ever one...
Posted:  23 Mar 2007 00:51
John Wesley Shipp was Barry Allen/The Flash, that was not to bad that series imho.
Posted:  23 Mar 2007 01:09
He looks a little older than he did on the Flash series. Not sure he'd make a Cap now. I like that show though got the whole thing on dvd.

I agree Toby Maguire is perfect in the spidey saga.
In The Flash the only muscles where in the suit and that´s what i want to speak about.
Why those expensive and ridiculous "muscle costumes" IF AMERICA IS PLENTY OF MUSCULAR PEOPLE WHO DOESN´T NEED IT AT ALL?
Real muscles, some spandex, a good will and that´s all you need.
SAVE THE COSTUMES MONEY FOR BETTER THINGS.
SEMPER FIDELIS.

Here's a super Marine for you:

I agree that muscle suits are incredibly lame, but I think CAP's suit should be a little more than just spandex. That one is already taken care with the WWII costume it they go the Ultimates route, but I think they should have the present day suit look like it is protective, but not full of body armor and bulky like the Batman suits. Spandex alone looks silly I think. Look at Spideys outfit, that is SUPER spandex, not cheesy spandex like in the old live action show.
Posted:  23 Mar 2007 22:25
I don't have a trainer like most the guys getting in shape for roles. Give me one, and I'll be 250-260 easy. CAP deserves a big dude, not some thespian that got cut for the role like Tobey or Thomas Jane (altough he was in good shape before Punisher, but he is not very BIG).

I got a question for you, since I workout all the time, but can't lose that last little bit of gut. Do you take lots of creatine or do you think it adds too much of a bloated look? I'm starting to wonder if that is what gives me a gut, but it sure does help make a fella stronger on bench press.

Well, I don't take a LOT of creatine, but I do take it and do like the huge strength boost that I get from it. However, when I used to take Cell-Tech, I would get really strong but I would also get really bloated. I hated that. My stomach would stick out the entire time I was on it, and I looked more puffy, and less cut (not that I was all to cut at the time, but you get it I'm sure).

I usually cycle creatine for about 2 months or so twice a year. Right now I am taking a mass muscle creatine called Full Blown and it is pretty good. I don't feel any bloating, but I am getting really good workouts and getting good strength gains (did 5 reps on dumbell curls with 70lbs dumbells). There are not too many Mass Muscle stores around, I go to the one in Venice Beach, but you can get it online. I used to love Triple Fusion, but they said it was out dated and replaced it with Full Blown. I've heard there are some really good creatines out now, so I would check around. They do say though that creatine works differently for people, so I'm sure there is a creatine out there that will not bloat you. I used to take Betagen 8-9 years ago when it first came out and I did not get bloated from that either, but I think that is totally outdated now and not sure they even sell it anymore.

The guy at Mass Muscle told me that Gaspari products are really good, but that you will pay for them. He told me that some of his products worked so good that the FDA took them off the market because they said the molecular compounds where too close to roids. He said "Size On" from Gaspari was REALLY good and even better when stacked with "SuperPump250" (sounds like Sustenon 250 for a reason he told me).

I get my protein powder from massnutrition.com. They have pretty good deals, at least for me, since things may be more expensive out here in LA (everything else is. Just paid 3.13 a gal for gas).

If you're trying to get cut, have you tried fat burners like Hydroxycut or anything? I hear they work really well, but I only tried Ripped Fuel back in the day when I was getting in shape for a bodybuilding contest in high school. I'm considering them again though. We'll see how my new running program treats me first though.

Remember, if you want to lean up, diet is king (nothing new to you I'm sure).

Jack daniels put the gut on me!

Seriously though, WHO311, that was some very interesting info, thank you.

Now where is SSS when you need it?

I SEE THIS PAGE IS PLENTY OF BODYBUILDERS AND I THINK CAPTAIN AMERICA IS THE FIRST ROID USER, BUT AT THAT TIME THEY WERE NOT ILLEGAL...
WITH CREATINE WATCH OUT YOUR KIDNEYS FELLAS EVEN IF YOU DRINK LOTS OF WATER, IT´S DANGEROUS AS A LONG TERM.
RETURNING TO CAPTAIN, I´M WILLING TO SEE ONE OF US IN HIS SUIT AND I AGREE NORMAL SPANDEX IS A NONSENSE.
I´VE SEEN BODYBUILDERS WITH BODYPAINTING AND THEY LOOKED LIKE THE COMICBOOKS. THERE´S NO TISSUE ABLETO SHOW ALL THE VEINS AND DEFINITION THAT A GOOD BB GETS.
And in order to finish here´s a tribute to LOU FERRIGNO who played a "different" hulk but was a nice hercules-even if the films were awful- and shoud have been an incredible X MEN COLLOSSUS.
SEMPER FIDELIS.

Are you trying to say "I SEE THIS PAGE IS FULL OF BODYBUILDERS" ?

To my knowledge, the biggest guy here is WHO311 but he is not a roid user by any stretch of the imagination.

Thanks for the nutritional advice. I don't know who else here trains but WHO and myself do and realize the dangers of steroids and some supplements.

That look can only be achieved in a comic or a drawing. I have a poster of Superman that shows every little muscle defined through his costume. There is matariel that can show how huge someone is, but not complete muscle definition. Christopher Reeve got huge to play Superman, but because the costume fit a certain way, one could not see every muscle group. Didn't matter because you could still tell he was huge.

Buy the way, how did this conversation lead to bodybuilding/training?

And why are you always yelling?

We are talking about an actor able to play the roll of Captain America and i think it´s time Hollywood pay a tribute to comic books making a film really based in a comic book and not the idea of a director or producer.
In orther to do this a man with a bodybuilder physique is needed and also a fighting training but not a Bruce Lee style, a kind of wrestling way.
You just have to take a CAPTAIN AMERICA comicbook and check how he looks.
SEMPER FIDELIS.

I am WH not WHO. I see why the confusion though. The O is really zero(0 vs. O). The zero is the first number from my MOS (military occupational specialty) or simply put; my job in the military. I would have put WH but that was too short. Maybe I should just put Wade since you have all seen my IMDb page and I am not really trying to hide. Figure since I am an actor, and I that may make me famous, I have to get used to people knowing who I am without me knowing who they are. 

If you really want to know about the MOS thing (this is old news for Corporal America) watch Full Metal Jacket where the drill instructor (R. Lee Ermey) tells the recruits: oh three hundred, infantry, you made it!

Well, I know I said the zero actually is a zero, but it is verbalized as an O (oh), instead of a zero, even though it is a zero. It's not who-311, like I am some 311 fan of something, it's just my intials and my MOS from the Marines. So it's WH-oh-three-eleven. Sorry for the rant guys. Just clarifing.

Thanks for the tip. I am pretty aware that it CAN have dangers, but that is why I cycle it instead of taking it for long periods. Also, your body becomes immune to it after a while, so it is not adding any extra benefit by taking if for extended periods. Also, it sucks waking up to piss 2 times a night for any longer than you have to.

I know what you are saying, txotxe, and I agree. I think its high time we have actual buff guys play superheros instead of some guys that just got cut for the role. Also, CAP needs to look big in clothes as much as he needs to out of them. We usually have to see an actor without his shirt on to be able to tell he even works out. Check out "The Rundown" with The Rock. The ending he is just wearing a t-shirt, and he is pretty jacked, you could tell, when he was just in a suit you could tell as well. That's because he WAS big, not just built with abs but no size. For CAP, I think size is more important.

WHO311 i´ve seen your photos and i hope anyday we´ll see you at big screen showing your muscles, your talent and your background as a marine.
Keep going and over the top!
Good luck, we need more actors like you.

Imagine the scene.
We see lots of ice and a group of scientists or militaries find something blue inside.
That´s the way i´d like this movie i´m waiting for should start.
They find the cap and he remembers with flashbacks his life meanwhile the film go on with no matter what script, seeing how he try to understand what happens to his life.
And what about the flashback where a skinny boy receives the supersoldier formula, trains with effort not been able to lift a light dumbel with his skinny arm and we see then an arm Cena´s like, for instance, lifting a heavy dumbel with big and plenty of veins muscles in order to appreciate the metamorphosis.
Or the flashback fighting with the old costume against nazis in the middle of the explosions...
This way we could see the whole story of our hero, all the costume story troughout the time, the origins without the boring way of other first film of several heroes we´ve seen yet, till arrive to the present where Hollywood could put the absolutely new and probably nothing to see with comics part of the film as they´ve done with all the others, even now a completely different suit.
So we could see all the best of CAPTAIN AMERICA and every people could return home from the theatre remembering the part they like the most but not a story that has nothing to see with the images we have in our minds after years of following the cap.
SEMPER FIDELIS.

No worries. Most people don't know the numbers unless that was their MOS. I only know a little of others like 0100's is admin, 5800's is Military Police of some kind, or I think 0400's is Artillery I think. Either way, it's cool. MOTOVATION!
