The super-serum thing actually works for me when you consider now that in the movie canon the Hulk and Abomination's powers are derived from the super-serum. That it can somehow have unique characteristics from the person it was given to.

The only question left is will we see him fight captain america or will he just menacingly order minions around?

I am so glad to be living in a time where that can be considered good.

I mean, I love it, because I'm a nerd, but like a decade ago? I bet most people would have thought it looked ridiculous.

I guess what I'm saying is...It's a great fuckin' time to be a nerd.

where he was arguably the best thing the trilogy had going
I can't disagree he was bloody amazing in the Matrix, but I wouldn't say it in a tone implying that the rest of the Matrix fell short

but yeah...I'm almost a big a fan of villain(mostly) Hugo Weaving as I am of hero(sorta) Nathan Fillion xD

I had reservations about the film at first, but honestly with Weaving as the red Skull and the awesome kevlar weave reimagining of Steve's suit, and the genius helmet idea, I am excited for this film.
I truly am excited for a Marvel film!

I'm 99% sure that in the comics, the Red Skull got hit in the face with some chemical that turned his skin red and tightened his flesh to the point that his head looked like a red skull. Maybe there's a new Red Skull that just wears a mask or the retconed him (I wouldn't put that past Marvel), but I'm pretty sure that way back when I read comics, he wasn't wearing a mask.

Holy crap, even if the movie doesn't turn out to be good, it'll be worth it just to see Weaving as the Red Skull.

If he was able to give a good performance with the fawkes mask, im sure he'll do well with this.

The only thing drew me to the movie was the set pieces (and not a surprise considering the director).

But Hugo Weaving? Hot dayum!

Hugo Weaving proves once again that he is King of the Nerds.
This is awesome.
I can't wait to see the Red Skull in action.

Remember how abseloutley perfect he was in V for Vendetta?
Agreed, while I didn't like the changes to the story Weaving's performance was wonderful. Actually V for Vendetta had a number of strong performances, good cinematography too.

He is, by far, the most amazing-looking villain I've seen in AGES.


I sooooo can't wait for this movie.

"The serum changes the person based on who they are inside, so while Captain America became a hero, Schmidt became a monster."

Uuh...

Seriously?
I would like to remind you that this movie takes place in the same universe where a rich playboy flys around in a suit of armor and hangs out with a guy who grows huge and green when he gets angry, along with the Norse God of Lightning. This is not the weirdest thing BY FAR
Yeah, but the other stuff is bullshit science, not dealing in the essence of someone's soul or whatever this counts as xD

The movie canon for Hulk is same as normal I think, hit with gamma rays, wheras Abominations was the super serum.

I'll accept all the other stuff as it's just plain fantasy but I just don't see how a serum based in "science" would react based on your morality.
