I am soooo excited about this one...

Looks great, although, I cant  figure  out how Nick Fury  became  Black?

[HappyGilmore]

On my short list, there's 4:
The Avengers
Dark Knight Rises
Amazing Spider-Man
Dark Shadows.

Someone asked when Nick Fury became black: in the Marvel Comics continuity, I believe they're basing the current movies off of the 'Ultimate' Marvel books, in which changes are made to the characters. There's Ultimate Nick Fury, who's been black at least eight years. Plus, the writers were fans of Jackson, and based the look on him.

Ended up casting him in time for Iron Man, and are basing the films on 'Ultimate' Avengers, Iron Man...etc.

Dark Knight Rises

That's what I thought at first....but then it's Samuel L. Jackson! Any movie he is in automatically get 10 extra cool points in my book.

I like Jackson, he should  have been Captain Americas  'Falcon', but, Nick Fury  was not Black, it's a bit condescending. BTW, I saw it  Saturday night it was great, ggo see it whe it comes out. :)

Fury's been black for a while now, sir.

Originally, yes, he was white.  Now he's black.  For a decade.

Well, I'm not your sir and second, the original character was white since his WW 2 origin story in the 60's up until the  Ultimates. He's still white in many Marvel comics till  right now. They also made Spiderman black in the Ultimates in the latest issue while Peter Parker is  still white in the regular series. It comes off as  condescending to me and I'm a  huge  Marvel Fan. I mean they can't create  new characters or revive old ones who happen to be black, of course, the Hulk is Green in the movie while he's Red in the comic, go figure?

The Red Hulk is actually General Ross.  Not Bruce Banner.
