Robert Redford In Talks To Star In ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’
Marvel Surprise: Robert Redford In Talks To Star In ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’
EXCLUSIVE: Here is a fun Marvel scoop. I’m hearing that Robert Redford is in discussions to join the cast of Marvel’s Captain America: The First Avenger, the sequel that brings Chris Evans back as the shield-carrying superhero. Redford is in talks to play a senior leadership role in S.H.I.E.L.D., the superhero collective run by Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury character. Joe and Anthony Russo are directing the film from a script by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, whose Marvel script credits include Captain America: The First Avenger and the upcoming Thor: The Dark World. The sequel will be released by Disney April 4, 2014. In between running his Sundance empire, Redford most recently starred in All Is Lost, the J.C. Chandor-scripted and directed survival tale. While Marvel was predictably mum as Kevin Feige’s unit always is on casting matters, Marvel characters have a tendency to show up in other superhero movies, and I believe that is likely to be on the menu for Redford. It will be somewhat ironic for the patriarch of independent cinema to become a regular in some of Hollywood’s biggest studio blockbusters. Redford’s repped by WME |

In the near future almost all movies are 3D I'd bet, personally I will gladly pay a few extra bucks to watch most movies in it. |

Sure, the big budget action movies. But who needs to see "12 years a slave" or "Argo" in 3D?

IMO either one of those would be even better with 3D... vhs tapes look good enough on a decent tv, it wont stop you from enjoying a good movie... so why are people increasingly going for blu-ray dvd? Because it just looks much better, that's why. |

My experience with 3D is that most movies aren't shot in it, but rather converted to it later on, and that makes it just fuzzy and dim. It's not really worth having a few shots of shattering glass or a thrown knife coming FLYIN' AT YA.

whatever all you too cool to enjoy it "snobs".
In any other facet of your lives, you'd upgrade if you could do it cheaply... movies are no different IMO, the richer my experience the more I'm entertained. |

I have a 3D projector at home, and I enjoy it more at home than I do in the theater. That has mainly to do with the glasses, which can view the screen from any angle, even laying down. Can't do that in a theater with those passive glasses. The ones I have at home also don't hurt your eyes because they don't make you go crosseyed to get the 3D effect. I will definitely be purchasing Cap 2 in 3D. I only own like 3 other ones in 3D, mostly because many of them just aren't worth it. This one definitely is, as was the first Avengers. |

3D is worth it due to the action shots and the helicarriers.

to be honest, I would probably watch more 3D movies IF Topeka priced them like KC does. We get kind of screwed here. No early shows at reduced prices. You know, the 10am showing that only costs 6 bucks for regular or 9 bucks for 3D. Not to mention much smaller screens here as well.

"Avatar", "The Avengers", and "Gravity" were all much better in IMAX 3D. I think "Godzilla" will also be a must-see.

You dont count. You have a vested interest in encouraging the public to pay extra for 3D. : )

I saw it in 3D. I thought the 3D was good, but I would have been okay with no 3D. A friend of mine took me for my birthday...and he wanted 3D. Saw it at Ward Parkway with the comfy recliiners..very nice.
Movie was awesome.

Just now remembered my only real gripe with this movie... he REALLY put that ultra sensitive, the whole shebang hinges on it piece of evidence in a candy machine?
