The First Avenger: Captain America News – Sorry guys, but the movie trailers seemed to be taking a break this week because there were few that I came across and the ones I did weren’t too exciting. But as to not leave you hanging, I will leave you with this little bit of info: Captain America’s love interest, Peggy Carter, has been cast for the upcoming film The First Avenger: Captain America, and she is British. WHAT!?!?! OH THE SCANDAL… No just kidding about that last bit, but I just wish Emily Blunt had really considered taking the role considering her reasoning behind waving it aside is no longer valid. Then again, there are rumors circulating that she turned it down for the opportunity to play Catwoman in the next Batman film. I guess we will find out in time… Check out the short article about the film and casting here.

Music:
Kate Nash: My Best Friend is You – I know usually I don’t talk about music, but Kate Nash is coming out with her follow up CD to House of Bricks today, which is easily one of my favorite CD’s thanks to Nash’s ability to write amazingly humorous songs without sacrificing the music itself. Her new song “Do Wah Doo” is already making a strong argument for the new album.
