Scooper 'RealIrOnMaN' got a chance to watch a trailer for Captain America: The First Avenger at the Russian Movie Expo and has reported back with a description. The first trailer (which may or may not be like the description) will hit theaters later this month, but not with Rango this weekend as some sites are reporting. If you'd like to know what was featured in the clip, read on...

Opening scene. Recruitment.

Calling: "ROGERS. STEVEN."

Doctors are looking at Pre Super-Soldier Serum Steve.

Steve: "Just give me a chance!"

Doctor: "Sorry, son! *Takes a paper. Stamps REJECTED!*"

Doctor (or not): "Just saving your life."

Paramount. Marvel Studios. Cut to Camp Lehigh.

Col. Chester Phillips (Peggy Carter by his side) says to standing soldiers & Steve: "General Patton has said, that wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men."

Steve (Pre Super-Soldier Serum) gets beaten by someone on the streets. Takes a part of garbage can as his shield.

The guy, that beat Steve: "You just don't know when to give up, do you?"

Steve (looking all angry at this guy): "I can do this all day!"

Sadly, Steve takes another beating from the guy.

Chester Phillips (looking at soldiers & Steve): "Our goal is to create the greatest army in history!"

Cut to Bucky (in army uniform) & Steve (in normal clothes):

Bucky: "I should be going with you."

Steve: "I know you think I can't do this!"

Bucky: "This isn't about (something), Steve, this is war!"

Chester Phillips: "Every army begins with one man!"

Cut to Abraham Erskine & Steve:

Abraham to Steve: "Five tries in five different cities."

* Soldiers walking by in camp

Abraham to Steve: "I can offer you a chance!"

Cut to Steve in Camp, receiving some special envelope. Abraham Erskine in coat & hat standing by Chester Phillips next to Steve & other soldiers.

Chester Phillips: "He (Steve) will be the first in a new breed of Super-Soldiers!"

Cosmic Cube? Some explosions. Peggy Carter & Steve together.

Steve: "Why me?" (chamber, full of scientists, generals. Steve gets inside the vita-rays capsule)

Abraham: "Because alignment, because of value, of strength, because of value of power."

Steve gets injected by something, saying: "That wasn't so bad."

Someone replies to Steve: "That was penicillin."

First look at Howard Stark, looking real smart & classy.

Chester Phillips: "We are going to win this war because we have the best man!"

Abraham to Howard: "Now, mr. Stark!"

Chester Phillips: "They will personally deliver (or something, I don't remember) Hitler to the gates of hell!"

* Really good & long view of Steve's painful transformation into Super-Soldier. Lights out! *Some army music plays* Everyone is shocked to see the brand new Steve Rogers. Howard Stark & Abraham Erskine are amazed.

Peggy Carter: "How do you feel?"

* Cut to streets of New York (the ones, we've seen on set pictures - looking realistic), people walking by.

Steve: "Taller"

* Cut to some icy lands.

Someone says to Steve: "Your task won't be simple!"

* Cut to Heinz Kruger's submarine, Steve is breaking it, asks Heinz: "Who the hell are you?"

Heinz Kruger: "The first of many!"

* Cut to some gunshots & Peggy, car explosion (the one we've seen on set video).

Someone says to Steve: "Your enemy is not, what you expect!"

* Cut to the big army of HYDRA & Johann Schmidt (not the Red Skull yet).

Steve & the Howling Commandos are inside some factory, with Schmidt's goons around. Johann takes his human mask off & we get to see first full & clear shot of Red Skull's face, that now looks even more violently red, than it was in the tv-spot.

Cut to Howling Commandos wrecking sht & kicking butt, big explosions (some of them we've seen in the tv-spot), flying spaceship (here it looks incomplete, more CGI-ish), HYDRA firemen making a fire circle around Cap & HYDRA men in the forrest near some car.

Steve (in his army uniform): "Don't know if I can do this!"

Cap & HYDRA on motorcycles, chasing him through the forest. Another explosion! Cap jumps on one of the HYDRA soldiers' car!

Abraham's voice (to Steve): "That's why you were chosen!"

Cap, possibly in HYDRA headquarters, fighting the Red Skull (not sure about this one, but looked like it).

Arnim Zola's lab, more explosions.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER.

Steve (to Peggy, holding his unpainted silver shield - tv-spot moment): "What do you think?"

Peggy: "I think it works!"

Notes:

* There are some unfinished CGI elements in this trailer (for example, the hovering space airship).

* This footage may or may not be the first trailer

* USO suit wasn't shown! But the helmeted/ripped USO suit was shown!

* I don't know when it premieres, but it looks like soon enough.

Official Synopsis:

Captain America: The First Avenger will focus on the early days of the Marvel Universe when Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) volunteers to participate in an experimental program that turns him into the Super Soldier known as Captain America. As Captain America, Rogers joins forces with Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) and Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) to wage war on the evil HYDRA organization, led by the villainous Red Skull (Hugo Weaving.)

Are you serious, Rappy? :o I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when I saw him like that for the first time. Moments later, I said to myself "Damn, he actually looks skinny." The CGI looks great to me. If it looks bad, it's because his face doesn't match his body. And after seeing the trailer, his voice doesn't match it either.

    • Microsoft kills AI-powered history search feature in Edge by Usama Jawad In June 2025, Microsoft began rolling out AI-powered history search functionality with Edge 138. The idea was simple: allow customers to use natural language phrases and synonyms to find their desired history items rather than matching keywords exactly. Although the company had already rolled out this capability in a phased manner, it has now decided to cancel it. In an update on its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has announced that it has decided not to move forward with AI-powered history search. The company has not detailed the exact reasoning behind this move, but it has apologized to customers for the inconvenience. The move is rather interesting as it seemingly could have improved user productivity. Edge users wouldn't have to worry about typos or exact keywords, and just focus on what they were trying to locate in their browser history. Microsoft had also assured users that an on-device AI model would be leveraged for this functionality, and no data would be sent to the cloud. IT admins also had the ability to control its availability through the EdgeHistoryAISearchEnabled policy. When the feature began rolling out last year, many of our readers called it creepy, noting that they couldn't trust Microsoft to keep their data on their device. Others also questioned its usefulness, saying that it's simply a way for Microsoft to insert more AI bloat into its products. Although the Redmond tech giant had stated that it will be more mindful about surfacing Copilot features in Windows 11 apps, we later discussed how this is mostly a rebranding exercise rather than an actual axing of AI functionalities. Indeed, a Microsoft executive later emphasized how they want to reshape Windows for the agentic AI era. That said, it does seem like at least AI-powered Edge history search isn't a part of that vision.
    • For you to jump on and defend your sweetheart? I agree, it didn't.
    • Not likely, of course, that we will see routine citizenship checks as they only involve compliance with existing federal voting laws already on the books for decades. This seems a non-issue entirely. Only fools would have the government rush headlong into an AI program few can understand or predict, or even debug...
