The Five Captain Americas On The Big Screen

Every decade a certain type of movie ends up becoming a major long term movie series type... What I mean by this for example, is the slasher movie franchise... In the 1980s this type of movie series came in to it's own, and ever since, it has become one of the more famous type of horror movies of all time!

Another great example of this is the movies that have been released based on Marvel comics super heroes... Since the early part of the new millennium, Marvel's comic book heroes have been making a major splash in the movie world!

And so I thought that you guys would enjoy finding out the 5 Captain America's that have graced the world of the big screen!

At number 1: Dick Purcell.

This Captain America may not have his legendary shield, but he is still fighting for truth, justice & the American way! 

Dick Purcell (King Of The Zombies), starred as Captain America in 1944 when Republic Pictures decided to release a 15 chapter serial... And well, it maybe true that this version of, 'Captain America' may not have his signature shield, but he is still fighting for America as the ultimate patriot!

At number 2: Unknwon.

Binbasi Tayfun... A Turkish movie, with a real American hero!

Ok, now this one is an interesting one, you see, this one I hate to say it is an important one, the problem is, is that I couldn't find much on it, but in the 60s and 70s Turkey released a series of big screen Captain America movies, and this one being the first is quite important, the only thing is, is that I could not find out much on it!

At number 3: Aytekin Akkaya.

Apparently in this one, Captain America teams up with a Mexican wrestler to stop a psychotic Spider-Man!

Now this guy maybe the last to date of the Turkish Captain America's out there, but can you really go wrong with a Turkish Captain America teaming up with a Mexican wrestler to stop a psychotic Spider-Man?

At number 4: Matt Salinger.

Matt Salinger as, 'Captain America', getting his hands dirty!

Now this Captain America is a little closer to the one we all know and love... And where as the movie itself may have been wrought with problems... (This being the reason this movie was released years after it was made,) at the very least, this is the shield carrying masked super-soldier that we all know and love.

At number 5: Chris Evans.

Chris Evans as the Super Soldier we all know and love!

Alright folks, now we make it to the Captain America we all know and love, Chris Evans as the current Captain America!
