Talk:Captain America: The First Avenger

I changed the trench gun entry as it is used by a character called Dum Dum Dugan. He is played by Neil McDonough of band of brothers, on another note im so glad Cap is acking a 1911 as his sidearm--Captain Snikt 08:30, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Captain America wouldn't be American if he didn't pack a .45 --Swordfish941 14:18, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

I also think the rag tag group of allied troups with the 'custom' weapons are the howling commando's but thats probably for a geekier site--Captain Snikt 08:32, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

If that is Dum Dum Dugan then it is the "Howling Commandos". Whether or not Nick Fury makes an appearance is the other question. --Charon68 11:20, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Fury is listed on the cast as Jackson has signed for a 9 picture deal with marvel but i dont think we'll be getting sgt fury tho --Captain Snikt 12:25, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

It has been confirmed by the producer that the Howling commandos do feature, and confirmed that Gabe Jones (I believe played by Derek Luke if the rumours are correct) will make an appearance in the film. I would guess that the guy next to Cap with the Thompson is Dino Manelli, and strongly suspect that the guy in the beret with the Sten is Percival "Pinky" Pinkerton. EDIT: Don't think it is Pinky actually, as Union Jack is in the film played by JJ Field, so I reckon they have amalgamated The Invaders and The Howling Commandos. --commando552 12:42, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

And the Asian guy with the knit cap carrying the custom gun is Jim Morita. --commando552 12:59, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

the CHARACTER's name is Jim Morita, which would probably imply that he is a Nisei (Japanese American GI fighting in Europe). MoviePropMaster2008 20:34, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

If i remeber correctly he was the leader of a Nisei squadron till he joined Fury's howling commando's --Captain Snikt 01:12, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

The one next to Cap holding the Thompson is Bucky. humanzie3

Boy oh boy I can't wait to see Hugo Weaving as the Red Skull. Here's hoping we see him with a Luger or a C96. -- K98.118.59.151 14:20, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Has anyone seen the newly released trailer? I think I saw a Colt 1908 Pocket Pistol and an M1928 Thompson in the trailer. - Kenny99 23:22, 23 March 2011 (CDT)

Weapon Overview

I don't have enough time to edit the page, but while the guns are fresh in my mind I'll list what I saw that's not on the page already:

• Hugo Weaving used a Luger P08, and after revealing he's redskull, uses a Luger that has been modified to look like an energy weapon.
• The assassin Kruger used a Walther P38, which in typically movie fashion, clicks empty instead of locking back.
• A Johnson M1941 is used by Sebastin Stan, who plays Cap's friend Buck, to snipe an enemy. He racks the bolt back after he shoots, despite it being a semi-automatic weapon.
• MP40s are used by several of the Nazis before all those fictional Hydra soldier weapons take over.
• M1 Carbines are seen slung on the backs of US soldiers, and an M1A1 Carbine is seen being used by one during the raid of the Hydra base at the end.

If I can remember any more I'll come back and add them. - Gunmaster45

Just got back from seeing it myself, I'm pretty sure I saw Jim Morita (Kenneth Choi) carrying an M3 Grease Gun at one point. The commandos themselves look like they were outfitted with a who's-who of U.S. WWII weapons. I'm also pretty sure I saw some modified FN 303s in there as well. - IGemini

HOLY S***!!!!

This movie was absolutely AMAZING folks! Never in my life have I been so blown away by one of the best movie-going experiences... this film is truly a film of our time that will be remembered for years to come. And when it was finished, never have I heard the most explosive, pumped, ecstatic, massive, roaring applause at the end of a film. This movie was AMAZING. No doubt about it.

Go see this movie folks, you will NOT be disappointed! --ThatoneguyJosh 02:06, 23 July 2011 (CDT)
