I'm so interested in this "Nick Furry".
theamazinspiderman
Nick Furry. It's the leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., with interesting fetishes...
retrohellix
The 80's already had a Thor, Eric Kramer from "The Incredible Hulk Returns"
wwny
Vincent D'Onofrio played Thor in the 80s. Look it up, kids.
FacemanPeck
Eh. Kind of.
plainoldfool
David Hasselhoff would be Nick Fury
Idontknowaboutthispost
Kurt Russel as Nick Fury makes more sense if it in the 80's, already got the eye patch look down with Snake Pliskin
Hawthornen
This was more like What if we chose actors similar to the actors currently playing Avengers characters.
darkmikasonfire
you know... I actually like the sound of this.
Xsiah
The 80s had a Thor. https://popbabble.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/adventures-in-babysitting-thor.jpg

Peter Weller as Ultron
dennydorko
He still could have been the voice. Correction: he should have been the voice.
retrohellix
And have him play Ultron just like he did Robocop.
elisegallow
Oh my dear GOD ID GO SEE IT!!!!
DrivingTheBus
I always forget that Mel Gibson was a cutie.
circuspony
AverageSexGod
Burt Reynolds was too past his prime in the 80s.
SkypeOfCthulhu
And Alan Rickman, prior to Die Hard in '88 was largely a theatre actor, and wouldn't have been considered for a film with a cast like that.
WordsAreHardToThinkOf
I would have gone with Tom Selleck
mjaywilson
Where's Tom Selleck in all of this?
kingofthediamond
I would watch the shit out of that!
FacemanPeck
I always saw Patrick Swayze as Wolverine if they'd made X-Men in the 80s but he totally fits as Cap too.
equaleffect
I bet fury would be different
ProbablyCrazier
I can't imagine why you think that.... http://www.macleans.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Comics.jpg
equaleffect
Haha me either
CatsAndUkes
That would be the most cost-prohibitive movie ever made
TheRealCharlieDay
May be a stupid question, but isn't Hank pym Ant man too?
asdfertjryjre
The Hoff would play Fury.
FuturePerfectTense
Back in the '80s Nick Fury was still white.
Durzaka
So was '00s Nick Fury. Black Fury is based on the movie universe (for the Ultimate comic universe.)
NipplesTheEnchiIada
Black Furry only exists because they modeled him after Samuel L Jackson.
ghsdkgb
And David Hasselhoff
palmo
No one else remembers that movie.
vidiv
I vaguely remember it. It was very... colorful.
ChuckZombie
This is an amazing dream cast. No doubt the costumes would blow though.
KnightsAgainstOrganizedSeriousness
I'd watch the shit out of this. Only one I'm hesitant on is Mel cause I don't think he has a sense of humor fit for Hawkeye
TerriblePokemon
He did back in the day
Penetrecia
I feel like you might not be old enough to remember the Lethal Weapon movies... it was pre-nutbag Mel Gibson.
KnightsAgainstOrganizedSeriousness
Oh I remember them. He was excellent. Hard to forget how he is now sometimes.
Penetrecia
yea, I can't watch him anymore.. he's just too far gone.
Man0fReaction
Bruce Willis then?
Phyrkrakr
Michael Keaton.
Man0fReaction
Nice
KnightsAgainstOrganizedSeriousness
Out of sheer morbid curiosity I'd almost want to see a version where Bill Murray plays him.
limpspinach
Ha! I'd go for that. Then again, I'd go for Bill Murray as just about anything.
Pengarr
Of course, you know it would be an Ed Norton situation where he kept demanding more and more creative control and wound up walking.
KtanDantaktee
I like how Michael Douglass still has the same role he does now.
TheBlackWindHowls
Was I the only one really impressed with how they de-aged him for Ant-Man's intro sequence? It was even better than Tron Legacy's.
Tunisia
De-aged RDJ was pretty impressive/creepy in Civil War.
LapisScarab
Didn't detract from the scene it was in much though. There was a bad screening shot in the airport fight and that still kicked ass.
LapisScarab
Yeah it looked a bit wonky, which is weird considering how scarily good the same trick was in Ant-Man.
BahweepGragnahWheepNinibong
Why change what works?
anacctnamedphat
In the 80s Hank Pym was the Antman
BahweepGragnahWheepNinibong
But in the 2010's Hank Pym is Hank Pym. Just using 80s actors for avengers characters.
DrClaww
Hank Pym was Ant-Man in World War II, in the new films. There is old timey footage that shows nazis being knocked out
LaughingWolf
His point is soaring above your head so far it might as well be considered a satellite.
JustCallMeBean
In the 80s Nick Fury was white, also.
BahweepGragnahWheepNinibong
If you read comments we've already addressed that a few times.
bunnyaddict
I agreed until they hit Michelle Pfieffer. I don't think she has/had the same allure Scar Jo
MouseTheFooDog
Pfeiffer's plenty sexy but she doesn't have that bombshell/kickass spy quality.
eespejo99
In the 80s? Pfieffer was the IT girl. I was gonna say I don't buy her as a physical character but I bought her as Catwoman so...
toffdog
And Michael J Fox as Spiderman
iftheshoefitz
Or Daisy Johnson.

Bonus points because Jon Favreau is in that episode.
ProbablyCrazier
in the 80's nick fury was white and probably would have been played by Hasselhoff. And Rickman could pull of Loki now, let alone in the 80's
chasingradio
There's something you should know... Or not actually. It adds no value to your life.
TheRealMcCoy92
Got some bad news for you buddy
SecretBoardOfShadowyFigures
Funny you should say that...
lockstocks
Except the whole being dead thing
DVSBSTrD
He was played by Hasselhoff :P
Piseogmush
I am front a future where Alan Rickman is dead.
alexmcdawg
Yes indeed.
JohnnieTheShrubber
Alan Rickman isn't dead, he's just playing it low key.
Hybris51129
I heard he was working on a sequel for Dogma 2: The 2nd coming.
Mhakarhenha
Lamentably, he could not pull off Loki now.
MyLifeisaComplicatedDrinkingGame
Brutal.
snupher
If anyone could pull off playing a part well while deceased, I believe Alan Rickman could.
qaaaaa
Why? Did he retire?
ProbablyCrazier
Permanently
wompwompwomp
Oh, honey...
PamelaSplooshPoovey
You username is perfect for this exchange.
LinkaAdoptsACouger
What's wrong wit chu. I say you he dead.
TheVampireDante
Can we do am afterlife trade-in? Ten/Twenty so-so actors out for Rickman back? Hell Take Micheal Caine and the Rebootbusters as well.
ohdeepthought
How dare you Michael Caine is a treasure.
TheVampireDante
Treasure/trash, depends on the point of view, He's done nothing in the last twenty years I'd consider him worth saving for.
ohdeepthought
Miss congeniality and don't say you didn't enjoy it. Italian job and Zulu are timeless so he's a treasure.
GrandmastrRac00n
Are we not going to mention that hasselhoff was nick fury?
ProbablyCrazier
Shhhhh shhhhhh.... just let it happen....
GrandmastrRac00n
Correction that was 1998.
DVSBSTrD
He would've been even better back in the 80s.
