If he can reign in the accent, it could work. I just can't hear Cap as a good ol' boy...

"Hey y'all. Avengers done assemble!"

No. Just no. I'd rather have a complete unknown in the role than a goofus like Matthew McConaughey.

Amen to that. He's too dorky or something.

I'd pick Jason Lewis, I think he could do a good job with it, but I think McConaughey would be fine.

Tahmoh Penikett (Helo from Battlestar Galactica)

If he dyes his hair blond he would be good!

Matthew McConaughey could work as Captain America. I could see it happening. If the casting crew is anything like the casting crew they had for Iron Man, I would completely support this decision.

The guy in Pathfinder is Karl Urban -- but I think he looks a little too crazy to play Cap.

mcconaughey is the stoner, slacker type. that's pretty much the opposite of captain america. plus, i dont think people realize how difficult it's going to be to pull this movie off. there is absolutely no room for error with a pro-america, story-line-in-the-1940s, nice-guy-with-no-super-powers, movie. it has to be flawless, and if it is, i think it could be marvel's crown jewel. that said, there needs to be a real actor in there to somehow make those corny lines work. there is no proof that mcconaughey can act, given the movies he's been in. and i think pitt is an interesting choice. troy, fight club, meet joe black, legends of the fall? say what you want about him, but he can act, and even though he's pushing 50, he can still look the part too.

Apparently there's a poll going on in which John Cena will play Captain America. Friend of mine told me, but I hope to God he's just being a douche.
