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.

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.

    • OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Credit: OpenAI OpenAI today announced a limited preview of its new GPT-5.6 model series, which includes the Sol, Terra, and Luna models targeting different price points. GPT-5.6 Sol is the flagship model targeted at demanding reasoning and agentic workloads. GPT-5.6 Terra is positioned as a balanced model for everyday work, featuring performance competitive with GPT-5.5 while being half the cost. GPT-5.6 Luna is the fastest and most affordable model, delivering strong capability at a lower price point. Unlike previous model releases from OpenAI, GPT-5.6 is starting with a limited preview for a small group of trusted partners due to U.S. government restrictions. As expected, OpenAI previewed its plans and the models' capabilities to the U.S. government ahead of launch, and the government asked OpenAI to limit the first wave of access to select partners. OpenAI also mentioned in the official announcement blog post that it does not believe this type of government access process should become the long-term default. OpenAI highlighted that GPT-5.6 Sol comes with a robust safety stack featuring improved protections for higher-risk activity, sensitive cyber requests, and repeated misuse. The company also spent several weeks pressure-testing the system and hardening it against real-world attacks. On the capability side, as expected, GPT-5.6 Sol is OpenAI’s strongest model yet. It delivers better results in agentic performance across coding, biology, and cybersecurity. On the Terminal-Bench 2.1 benchmark, which tests command-line workflows requiring planning, iteration, and tool coordination, GPT-5.6 Sol sets a new record with a score of 91.9%, beating Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5. Additionally, GPT-5.6 introduces a new "max" reasoning effort for even deeper reasoning. The new "ultra" mode uses subagents to accelerate complex work beyond what a single agent can handle. Pricing starts at $5 per million input tokens and $30 per million output tokens for Sol. Terra costs $2.50 for input and $15 for output, while Luna costs $1 for input and $6 for output. GPT-5.6 comes with more predictable prompt caching, including support for explicit cache breakpoints and a 30-minute minimum cache life. Sol will also launch on Cerebras in July at speeds up to 750 tokens per second for select customers. OpenAI plans to make GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna broadly available in ChatGPT, Codex, and the API in the coming weeks.

      I'm not sure if you are trolling because I saw people saying this with the straight face, but there were no United States of America when industrial revolution started, just United Colonies 🤣 p.s. I'm not British, so I'm not offended.

      Glad I uninstalled this incredibly buggy browser. Looking at that changelog, they clearly don't test their updates at all.
