New trailer and poster for Captain America reiterate hero’s American-ness

If Marvel were at one point concerned that Captain America: The First Avenger would fail to find an audience outside of the U.S. (due to the hero’s nationalistic leanings) there is no evidence of it in their new poster and trailer, which go out of their way to push Cappy’s American-ness (Americanity? Ameriquity?). The new […]

Poster Debut: The Muppets

They walk among us! Check out the (slightly weird) first official poster for The Muppets. There’s something peculiar about seeing Kermit, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Animal and Gonzo walking without any human assistance. Frankly, it’s unsettling. Also, that tagline just sounds … threatening. Still, nothing could knock it from its perch as our most anticipated […]
