plain looking = any American 

 

People love the democratization of the American ideal--witness palin.  Everyone will love to project their self-images of All-Americanism onto John. 

Fox411: 'Captain America' role is John Krasinski's to lose. he has been reading with mutliple actresses. Antibody Mar 09, 11:28

what a horrible choice. {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 11:35

Epic fail {nm} Hooray360 Mar 09, 11:37

worse choice then Seth Rogen as The Green Hornet.....can't they at least cast someone who looks the part? {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 11:40

not that i like the choice, but give him a few months with a trainer and some HGH and he'll look the part no problem {nm} LuCiFeR Mar 09, 11:42

trainer or not, he suffers from typecasting of the worst kind. {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 11:44

werd. i'd rather see pam play Cap. {nm} pweiprod Mar 09, 12:01

lol...or Stanley {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 12:58

Even if he improves the physique, he will never have the "look" of Captain America. He is handsome, but kind of plain looking. MiyazakiFan Mar 09, 12:47

agreed {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 12:51

Maybe they intend him to be the scrawny pre-Super Soldier version of Steve Rogers. {nm} Hooray360 Mar 09, 11:43

i like him on The Office, but he is not what i picture as Captain America by any means. {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 11:45

Makes sense to buy Starbonds? UniversalTrader Mar 09, 11:59

anyway, with Joe Johnston directing, I don't have high hopes for this...but that's me {nm} tealfan Mar 09, 12:06

not my first choice, but he's had some decent flicks {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 12:40

Dreadful choice. Doesn't fit the part at all. Should have gone to Captain Awesome.. he's perfect for the role. {nm} MiyazakiFan Mar 09, 12:37

after countless seasons of The Office, Smiley Face, Away We Go, It's Complicated, Leatherheads & License to Wed what are they thinking??? {nm} lobogotti Mar 09, 12:40
