uhh, okay. I’ll pass in a BIG way over Spiderman “the musical”……why is there direct to dvd Thor and Avengers, AND feature films with the same name? Unless the direct to dvd are cartoons, and in that case, pass. Also I’ll pass on Cap. America,…………..50 years ago with todays tech it would have sold, but really, who cares in 2008-9?
