Where was you when the Based Russo's not only saved cape shit, but took the source material and made it better? Isn't this how happy everyone was when Avengers 1 came out?

It wasnt too hard to make something better than Civil War but they did the Tony-Steve conflict justice

You could have given the Civil War comic to a mouse and he would have made it better, making a better adaption of that drivel is hardly an achievement worth bragging about. You movie-only fucks have got it lucky with how ignorant you are.

The reasons for the accord itself was stupid, Tony/Steve conflict was good and reasonable up until the movie's Martha moment, Zemo sucked and was mostly just a plot tool instead of an actual character, Spiderman and Falcon were cool, BP was boring, had no personality and was essentially a dude in cat suit who scratched people.

Looking back Avengers one had the appeal of it being one of a kind, now that all this other shit is out it really isn't that special especially since Whedon is such a poor director.

My only wish is that Fox would just give up and hand Marvel the Fantastic Four rights back. Or maybe if they want to reboot X-Men they can make a deal like Sony did with Marvel Studios.

I would pay to see this.
>>
>>82603895
>The reasons for the accord itself was stupid
Not really. What happened at the beginning of the movie was just the straw that broke the camel's back. But this isn't the first time that someone's saying the Avengers should be responsible for what they do, and remember that they were originally brought together as a government-sponsored organization.

Besides that, what Ross said about "misplacing" Thor or the Hulk is true; they're powerful fucking people, and someone should at least keep an eye on them. That's not to say that Steve "For fuck's sake I just took down Hydra trying to do basically the same fucking thing last movie" Rogers is wrong, either. But the Sokovia Accords had their merits.

>Tony/Steve conflict was good and reasonable up until the movie's Martha moment,
"Are you fucking kidding me? You fucking knew all along that your best friend, who you've been trying to hide and protect from me, fucking MURDERED MY PARENTS, and you never even bothered to fucking tell me?"

>Zemo sucked and was mostly just a plot tool instead of an actual character
I can't really argue that, though at least he was an effective plot tool. he wasn't Lex Luthor. Zemo managed to actually accomplish his goals. Besides, how much do you really want them to focus on him, in an already crowded movie?

Rhodes asked Vision to turn "His thruster into a glider." Vision was aiming to shut off the engines so that Falcon could still glide to the ground on the wings, but he'd be grounded because he couldn't get any lift and so he couldn't pursue.
>>
>>82604303
Well that sure backfired on him
>>
>>82604320
Vision turned Rhodes into a brick.

I was more surprised that they actually managed to make Vision interesting at all. That character is such a bronze age clusterfuck of goofy design and bad parenting by Tony, I'm astonished he was actually likeable.

I still wish they just killed him there.

>>82604093
>What happened at the beginning of the movie was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
Except there WERE no previous straws. The issue of the Avengers needing to be kept in check or answering to a higher power was hardly ever brought up, if at all, and none of the team ever showed remorse for their actions because there was no need. The perfect chance to do this would have been at the end of AoU, but Whedon shit that bed.

>>82603790
>people actually debating sides of Tony and Cap
Retarded. There is no debate. Tony is wrong. The movie never delves any deeper into the issue because it becomes more retarded the longer you look at it. The Avengers don't need to be kept in check Every death toll would have been exponentially higher had they not acted. They are not at fault for anything. And explain to me, how exactly, the Avengers being contracted by the UN would do ANYTHING to prevent collateral deaths or damage. It wouldn't. The greatest evidence for the Avengers actually needed to be kept in check (Tony creating Ultron, and Hulk rampaging and Tony having to take him down) were totally ignored, because casting a light on Tony's actions would ultimately make him look so bad that kids might not want him on their lunchboxes anymore, and they couldn't bring the Hulk into it because Ruffalo wasn't in this movie. It's pathetic, shallow, transparent and the Sokovia Accords are pants-on-head stupid. The fact that anyone thinks they can "debate" them proves how stupid cape movie audiences are.

The truly sad thing is that the Civil War plot was only shoehorned in because the Russos felt the need to compete with BvS. The ironic thing is that the Civil War plot ended up being the worst thing in the movie.

Every other bit of praise this movie gets is memes. I feel like if Spidey and Ant-Man hadn't been jammed in, this movie might have flopped as hard as it deserved to.

As for the other guy, the point he's making is you selectively ignore how the MCU governments respond towards people with superpowers. They're already hostile. Sokovia is simply a welcome excuse to deal with people who challenge their power and souvereignity.
>>
>>82603790
Traditionally I see myself as a DC fanboy and honestly the fact Cap 3 was so damn good made me despair further for DC movies.

It did everything right. After avengers 2 I was done with marvel. The quippage had gone too far and everything just felt tired. Cap 3 brought consequences, some humor and juggled a massive cast without feeling undeveloped.

The fact this movie introduced both Panther and Spiderman in a satisfactory way amazes me.

WB have no hope of replicating this because they are pursing the JL idea for cash and disdain of DC material

Civil War was a reactionary movie that never needed to happen. Not only does it not accomplish anything (the team is split, except not really? It's vague as fuck), but it forces the Avengers into a Cap movie where they don't belong.

The Cap trilogy no longer stands on its own as a trilogy because of this. Iron Man had his own trilogy for the most part, aside from minor references to Avengers 1. The films could be watched on their own and nothing would be confusing.

If one were to watch the Cap movies as a series of their own, the disparity between the ending of Winter Soldier and Civil War is jarring as fuck. It absolutely requires watching that shitty Age of Ultron movie in order to make sense of what's going on.

>Who is this Wanda? Who is Vision? Why are they here?
>Why haven't Steve and Sam found Bucky by now? The stinger at the end of Ant-Man showed that they caught him already. What's going on?
>Oh ok so the stinger actually takes place in the middle of Civil War. Weird. Why did they do that?
>Why did Tony take time out of the Sokovia Accords business to track down Peter Parker? Why would he endanger this kid by putting him in a conflict between far more experienced fighters?
>Why is all this even happening now? A draft similar to the Sokovia Accords should have been made directly after Avengers 1.

But without all the other heroes, we wouldn't have gotten the Spider-Man, Ant-Man, and Hawkeye, who were the best parts of the movie.

The fucking amount of shit you have to make up in your own head to support anything that goes on in the MCU is staggering. Who are we saying is a scapegoat?

>>82604884
>you selectively ignore how the MCU governments respond towards people with superpowers
Oh my god. You imply the movies EVER made it seem important how the governments reacted to people with superpowers! It was never important, because Marvel Studios NEVER wanted to make something as controversial as Civil War or "heroes vs. government" a part of their safe, formulaic movie universe. The Russos even admitted this. The only way they got them to change their mind was because WB gave BvS the greenlight.

The idea of the Avengers as a dangerous entity that the world should fear was NEVER brought up, outside of a throw-away line of a random citizen (not the government) mentioning they didn't feel safe at the end of Avengers. And Avengers 2 pretty much tiptoed around the entire hornets nest so that they could have a happy, Whedon-approved ending. The closest they came to making it seem important was when they mentioned that 117 countries had signed the accords, but seeing as how that was only in Civil War, I don't think it counts as any kind of meaningful set-up.
>>
>>82604527
>there is no debate

there have been a shit load of threads filled with debates and people thinking both sides are obviously right.

In the end, there needs to be SOME oversight and people knowing what the fuck they're doing but the UN is pants on head retarded and should be trusted with nothing.

None of this shit would've happened if Fury was there, he's pretty much essential for the team to stay together.
>>
>>82605002
Watch the movies that other guy listed.
>>
>>82604993
>"wow I bet BvS did the heroes' conflict better,"
It did and it didn't. The thing was, Superman didn't really have a conflict. He never WANTED to fight Batman at all. Meanwhile, Batman's motivation to fight Superman was driven by fear and xenophobia, and I think the movie did a great job justifying that. And I think it spoke a lot to Superman's character that, as a hero, he never saw a reason to get physical with Batman, and not once did he personally WANT any hard to come of the Batman, but what finally got him to fight was a dirty bit of manipulation on Luthor's part that preyed on Superman's human psyche.

There's a lot of cool and interesting stuff in it, but I still think the movie has severe problems in terms of story.
It was overstuffed and after Age of Ultron I'm beginning to fear this is just what Marvel is now.

If you're looking at comics, there's three basic types of cape books: solos where they really dive into one character and their supporting cast, team books where a lot of minor characters get a time to shine alongside other characters and events where they just throw everything they have at the wall.

But with the sole exception of Guardians of the Galaxy and arguably the first Avengers movie, the MCU doesn't do any "team movies".

They just do solo and event movies now and I can't help but feel it's getting a bit tireing. They keep trying to have these huge conflicts with intricate stories and so much going on, but then they also remember that they have to use like 6 different B-list Avengers in these movies because no other movies are going to and then on top of that they also always introduce new characters.
They are moving really fucking fast now.

A "New Avengers" movie with a smaller scope would've been dope. Just use Cap's new team for a while, before you dive into the next huge thing. We barely even know half these characters we have in these movies right now, but Marvel is too busy assembeling the next event movie and making even more solo movies.
>>
>>82605021
>there have been a shit load of threads filled with debates
>implying people on /co/ won't debate the most retarded shit

>>82605025
I did. In fact, I noted how most of those movies not only didn't SHOW the government responding to the actions of the Avengers, but more often than not they specifically tip-toed around it. The best foothold the Accords could get would be in mentioning the Hulk, but since the MCU seems to be shoving him on the back burner and can't make any more solo movies, they seem to not want to feature him at all.

Are you seriously just saying "look, big bad things happen in those movies, so the governments were clearly grumpy about it, even though they didn't show it or discuss it or anything at all!"
>>
>>82604993
>But without all the other heroes, we wouldn't have gotten the Spider-Man, Ant-Man, and Hawkeye, who were the best parts of the movie.
I'd be lying if I said Spidey wasn't the best part of the movie. But it's so painfully obvious that he was forced in at the last minute. It's just so out of place. Peter has no business being there.
>>
>>82605103
So, you're just ignoring Hulk, Thor, a nuclear strike, trying to seize Stark's technology, Hydra's political cronies never being arrested or pulled out of play and thus still active.

Kay. Sure, you've seen the movies. I'm totally going to believe you there. You're not just pasta-ing shit from other threads by people who never bothered to watch the films either. Nope, not you! You've seen them all!
>>
>>82605117
Stark needed someone that could take down Cap's team without hurting them. Look at Starks line up vs Caps. It's mostly fire power.
>>
>>82605191
Err, I meant to say without killing them.
>>
>>82605146
What does ANY of that have to do with showing that the governments feel that the Avengers need to be kept in check? Yes, a number of those things are certainly REASONS that the Avengers should be scrutinized, but the movies never fucking addressed it. You're worse than the people who jam tons of subtext into Snyder movies to try and make them seem like kino.

And additionally, the nuclear strike has nothing to do with anything. In fact, it proves the government was willing to have more casualties in one confrontation that the Avengers ever allowed. The government trying to get Stark's suits had NOTHING to do with them feeling the Avengers needed to be kept in check, they just wanted the fucking technology for war mongering.

>>
>>82605217
>lists multiple attempts to put Avengers under government control
Except I explicitly refuted how ANY of those were "attempts to put the Avengers under government control"! None of them were! How were they? Explain! Use examples! This is fucking sad, I'm pretty sure you're just trolling at this point, but the notion that there is any human being out there who might actually fall for this line of "reasoning" kind of upsets me. Here, let me specifically refute that original "list":

>Incredible Hulk
Government was actively attempting to subdue the Hulk because he was the antagonist of that film. Had nothing to do with keeping Avengers in check. The fact that he was only referenced in a throw-away line in CW was pathetic, because he was the best leverage the movie had against the Avengers operating freely.
>Avengers
Government never once mentioned trepidation over the Avengers. Random citizen says they didn't feel "safe" at the end. The Government was willing to nuke NY, which would have been multiple thousands more casualties than the Avengers could ever be held accountable for
>Thor 2
Government had nothing to do with this movie. Not sure why you mentioned it. Unless you're trying to make it seem like somehow a couple of jets being dispatched during Malekith's attack is them "trying to keep the Avengers in check", god you're not smart.
>Captain America 2
Government NEVER enters the equation. It's all SHIELD, and SHIELD was proven to be a bigger liability than the Avengers here.
>Avengers 2
The most hilarious entry. Tony nearly causes Armageddon, and walks away without any repercussions.


You understand that showing the cause is not the same as showing the reaction? If there is no reaction shown, you cannot just assume that it occurred. Where are the scenes of government lobbying for Avenger subsidization, or even showing they were concerned about the Avengers not being held in check? I'll give you a hint: There weren't any
>>
>>82605312
Eh, I'd still prefer a version of the actual ragnarok story line from the comics.
>>
>>82605407
Way I see it the Sokovia Accords were just an attempt to get the Avengers under government control, because they want to use them to their own ends. Like they've got humanitarian concerns in mind when, as you've said, they wanted to nuke NY to kill the Chitauri.

The timing was just right because of Tony's guilt over Ultron and the rest of the fuckups he's had, and Wanda's guilt over the events with Crossbone.
>>
>>82605532
>having to inject your headcanon into a movie so that it makes any sense
Jesus.
>>
>>82605407
You're not getting a response beyond "watch the fucking movies" from me, because you're either trolling or sperging out. The entire plot of the Incredible Hulk was about government oversight and control over a superpowered person.

I'm also not sure you realise that Shield isn't an "independant agency". SHIELD = the government, you fucking putz.
>>
Nick Fury's whole reason for making the Avengers was to have a team to fight the foes no single super hero could withstand and go around the political bullshit to just save the world.
>>
>>82605569

Headcanon, what the fuck? I drew conclusions based on what I saw in the movie, it's not like I'm claiming Tony's pissed at Steve because they're secretly homoerotic lovers or some shit.
>>
>>82605532
I don't see any sinister motivations like that behind this. Avengers 2 was a huge fuck up by the Avengers in every sense of the word

>Hulk going nuts
>Building ultron
>Letting Hydra super humans join their team

Frankly they didn't even need Scarlet Witch blowing up twenty people to start the Accords, they could have just opened with it in Civil War.

My biggest fault with the plot is why Zemo revealed he was pretending to be Bucky. Seems to me he could have destroyed the evidence and kept the world hating Bucky and by extension Cap forever.

You could argue it was to get Iron Man on their side so that he could have the big reveal, but I feel he could have kept Bucky vilified while still having Iron Man believe Cap's story.
>>
>>82605628
And then it turned out that Nick Fury was running Hydra.
>>
>>82605652
No, you didn't draw conclusions. You made up a plot point that doesn't exist and was never even hinted at. There's a big difference.
>>
>>82604093
>your best friend,

He wasnt his best friend, Rhodey is

And I agree Tony was somewhat justified in going after Bucky. What else was he supposed to do? Weep like a bitch?

>And I agree Tony was somewhat justified in going after Bucky. What else was he supposed to do? Weep like a bitch?

Understand that Hydra ordered the death of his family and go after what's left of Hydra rather than essentially trying to destroy the gun that they used to kill his parents?

I understand that Stark has always been self centered so his reaction makes perfect sense, but I don't agree with his course of action.

I did love the twist though. I'm sure some people might have seen it coming but I sure as hell didn't.
>>
>>82605697

Sure, because SHIELD dissolving and losing control over the Avengers, and then the team proceeds to do >>82605674 doesn't give the impression that the governments of the world don't want a repeat of Sokovia, and would rather have the Avengers under their thumb. Or when Ross makes that remark in the film about how he wouldn't let "two 30 megaton bombs like Thor and Hulk run free"

Of course, the meeting in the beginning of the film where Ross brings all the Avengers in just to show them clips of the deaths that happened on their watch WASN'T him guilt-tripping the team into compliance. But alright.
>>
>>82605848
>Ross makes that remark in the film about how he wouldn't let "two 30 megaton bombs like Thor and Hulk run free"
I would have preferred an additional Hulk reference or two from him. I'm guessing most people didn't realize that he was the Hulk-hating Ross.

I mean I have sympathy for the guy and understand his guilt, but none of that changes that his backing Ross is just another in a long string of terrible, terrible decisions.

>>82605982
That sort of goes against what he said about "I didn't know it was him."

Unless when Bucky told him about the Winter Soldiers he immediately thought "oh good it might not have been him!"
>>
>>82605960
He learned from Zola in the bunker during The Winter Soldier.

He didn't come right out and say "Bucky murdered Howard Stark," but he heavily implied that Stark was assassinated by Hydra and Bucky was their top assassin.
>>
>>82606079
I've stood by Stark being right ever since "What If: Civil War" where they showed that if the heroes hadn't fallen in line then the USA would have just sent Sentinels after them.

That made me realize that there was no "winning" for Cap's side. The best you can hope for in a situation like that is to change the system from within, because you're not going to be able to shout down the law by just punching it.

And that was Tony's plan here as well.

I don't know, I would think Thor might respect the government of the world not wanting him to interfere without their permission.

>>82606138
I think so too, but we'll see.

>>82606200
Plausible deniability. Cap really didn't know for sure until he saw the tape. And he didn't want to know the answer so he never dug any deeper or asked Bucky directly.

>I've stood by Stark being right ever since "What If: Civil War" where they showed that if the heroes hadn't fallen in line then the USA would have just sent Sentinels after them.
That just mean Americans in the Marvel comics are evil and needed to be destroyed. The fact that the Sentinels are sent doesn't prove Cap wrong, it proves him right instead that he picked the moral side.
>>
>>82604523
I like Rhodey and I think he should have died. It would have given the story a lot more weight.
>>
>>82606452
And I am not joking about that; Marvel had blew up entire planets for less. Destroying America is not a big deal when it comes to saving Earth from being destroyed by Sentinels.
>>
>>82604945
>Oh ok so the stinger actually takes place in the middle of Civil War. Weird. Why did they do that?

The fuck are you talking about? Both stingers take place after the events of the film. Mid-credits scene is obviously showing Cap in Wakanda with Bucky. End-credits scene is Parker after he returned to Queens following the fight (i.e. got hit by a guy named STEVE, his friend was a BIG guy, etc.)

>Why did Tony take time out of the Sokovia Accords business to track down Peter Parker? Why would he endanger this kid by putting him in a conflict between far more experienced fighters?

He wanted a secret weapon going into the battle, and he knew from two Youtube clips shown in the film that Spider-Man (1) had strong webs which could detain people non-violently, and (2) was ridiculously strong and durable.

>Why is all this even happening now? A draft similar to the Sokovia Accords should have been made directly after Avengers 1.

After the events of Avengers 1 there was no reason to believe that anything like it was ever going to happen again, besides which, they were all (well, except Thor) American nationals responding to a crisis situation on American soil while working in conjunction with an active government agency (SHIELD).

The bigger question is why it didn't happen immediately after the Sokovia incident, for which the Accords are named.
>>
>>82606476
They wanted to end it with Tony still being on the good guys' side.

The writers completely disagree. There is no weight to killing him at all, it would just end up with everything stopping and everyone attending the funeral. The film would then end, just like BvS.

>>82606510

>I like Rhodey and I like Cheadle, and the few bits of screentime he and Tony have together they have good chemistry. He's just underutilized.
And your decision to utilise him is to bury him six feet under?

The writers had a better idea; they gave him a disability, which parallels Tony's old chest wound. They are giving him room to be his own man now. This is far more useful than giving him a tombstone.
>>
>>82606510

The writers didn't want to deal with actual Nazis because once you go there, there is no turning back and it leads to sombre and seriousvile. This is exactly why they deliberately didn't let Steve Rogers liberate a WW2 concentration camp, even though he could have. Once you go that far there is no way to turn the train around.
>>
>>82606654
>was he supposed to be a good villain? was I supposed to get an impression of a highly skilled master manipulator pulling the strings? because I didn't get that at all
That's Zemo. He can fight but he is smart enough to focus on WINNING instead. What is there that you don't get?

You are not impressed that Zemo succeed where an alien invasion had failed?
>>
>>82606654
Zemo was so underutilized it was painful.
>>
>>82603848
I am willing to bet that Snyder would either adapt it to make it exactly the same, or would make it even worse than the source material and would make it his second movie after The Captain.
>>
>>82606681
>Zemo was so underutilized it was painful.
In what way? He did what he needed to do to win. You want him to monologue? You want him to challenge Steve to hand to hand combat and get the crap beaten out of him?

he was very forgettable

he never came across as a threat, he was just some guy. Like his plan never seemed like a brilliant scheme, literally anybody could have probably pulled off what he did. There was nothing extraordinary about it.
>>
>>82606695
I want him to be more than one guy on his own that somehow managed to predict everything everyone would do despite no indication as to how or why he was that smart.

Sure, he could just "be smart" but I feel like that should have been better reinforced.

>took the source material and made it better

I liked the source material better, honestly.
>>
>>82606681
>>82606654

Zemo was fantastic. An actual threatening villain who was able to succeed where all manner of monsters and aliens had failed.

He absolutely represented the villainous concepts driving the film (the desire to avenge and claim accountability) and was the perfect example of how supervillains aren't always cyborgs and homicidal beasts... sometimes they're just human.

Can't wait to see more of him.
>>
>>82606734
It's not like he's just evil for evil's sake though. We know where he's coming from and what he's about.
>>
>>82606727

Gotta agree here. Zemo didn't get a lot of play here and did most of his work in the shadows, so although he orchestrated pretty much the entire movie, he wasn't actually shown doing much of it. As a result, he was sort of pushed to the side.

Still, chances are he'll factor in as a villain later on. He did insinuate that his attempted suicide was nothing but a ploy to further his plots, at the end.

I didnt get this feeling. It just seemed like he was proud that Tony and Steve were still "enemies" and half the avengers were enemies.

>>
>>82606734
>I want him to be more than one guy on his own that somehow managed to predict everything everyone would do despite no indication as to how or why he was that smart.
Then you didn't understood the plan. Zemo didn't predict everyone's actions, he merely had a backup plan for every eventuality. As an example he didn't need Tony to be at Siberia, it's just that Tony being there was more convenient and pushed the plan forward. This is why he only tried to kill himself after he succeeded. If things went differently then he would leave and use that video in a different place and time of his choosing.

Yep, that scene there

>>82606885

Not exactly 'physically impossible', but true. There's an explanation though, maybe he figured that whether he succeeded in dying or ended up getting captured, he knew his phone would end up being confiscated and pored over by government investigators. Perhaps he didn't want them hearing his wife's final message, feeling it was only for his ears? We won't know for sure, at least until the next time he shows up.

>>82607181
No but the way I interpreted it was that he had experience reading Hydra code.

>>82607267
I would imagine quite a few intelligence operations outside of Shield are familiar with Hydra's protocols. It's part of their job to identify and counter (or possibly work with and assist) Hydra, after all.

>>82607481
Maybe, but did they ever say Zemo had an intelligence operations background?

I believe so. I'd have to watch it again to be sure. Not sure about if that was so clear in the english language version, though.
>>
>>82607586
I'm not sure they said it in the English version. I wouldn't have so many problems with Zemo if they had. I thought they just said he was in the city and drove his family out to the country to be safe and that was the end of his backstory.

I have to respectfully disagree. Because the film relied so heavily on the comic it is weighed down by the same unconvincing divisiveness of its source material forcing its characters to do things I can't at all imagine they would ever do. The final fight with Tony and Steve exemplifies this where Cap is just wailing on a clearly beaten Tony, A (for America) on full display on his forehead, clearly presenting Cap's stance as the symbol of American greatness. I'm sorry but no, just like in the comics this isn't Steve Rogers and it makes no sense here just as it didn't in Millar's version.

The film is another paint by numbers on Marvel's part sticking to the old formula. There are remnants of the same mindset that gave us Winter Soldier but the Russo's appear to have been curbed by producers wanting this to become Avengers 2.5 rather than a Captain America movie.

If anything this movie makes me worry even more for Infinity War. I was hoping that the Russos being added on would mean something different than just another team movie like we got in Avengers 1 and 2. But this movie doesn't at all give me that hope.

It is defiantly in the top 5 of Marvel movies, and none of the above is at all meant to say it is bad. Only that it was disappointing on my end because of the expectations Winter Solider built up.

Snyder's version would at least have set up precedents of everyone involved being a total asshole making the plot actually flow rather than out of character.

We wouldn't be shocked at Reed and Stark making a clone Thor and throwing all their friends in the negative zone because his "super "realistic" everything dark, Batman would get raped" would have been present from the onset of the story and not just randomly thrown in after 50 years of previous story telling.
>>
>>82604093
>Besides that, what Ross said about "misplacing" Thor or the Hulk is true; they're powerful fucking people, and someone should at least keep an eye on them

Banner I'll give you but Thor is a foreign dignitary from another planet and Earth is just his vacation home. Even if you put aside the concepts of "human being with free will and rights" and presume he's not eligible for "diplomatic immunity," How the fuck do you propose to keep tabs on that? How is doing so Steve's or Tony's job? What the fuck would Ross do if it was his job?
>>
>>82605800
It's also important to keep in mind that while we the audience know Bucky was brainwashed, the other characters don't. Steve is the only one who knows for sure that Bucky is a victim. For every other character it's just "Steve said Bucky was brainwashed and wasn't in control of his actions." And if anyone would delude themselves into justifying Bucky's actions, it would be his best friend who's still clinging to the one thing left of his life in the past.

But yeah, the most important thing is that it was in character for Tony to behave that way. And it absolutely was.
>>
>>82611215

I don't really know how else it could've played out. If the other heroes weren't involved, and the conflict would've just been Tony-Steve+Bucky, it wouldn't be "Civil War" but "Lovers' Quarrel".

Dropping Tony out, they could've had a smaller detective story with Cap trying to save Bucky and catch Zemo, while fending off Black Panther, but that would've just felt like a filler in the grander scheme of things.

These movies are all part of the same continuum, which is their strength, trying to split them like, "this is a Cap movie now, everybody else fuck off" would've felt forced after all that development. I like how they present Cap as the "core of avengers", what happens in his films has the biggest impact on the mythology (disbanding of SHIELD, splitting the team, etc), while the other films are more self-contained.

My biggest issue with the film is that the Russos are established TV-creators and it shows. CW was delivered like a big budget TV-movie rather than the blockbuster it tries to be. The camera work and pacing were a struggle at times.

The non-stop flow of intertwining visuals, audio and narrative tailored for a theatrical feature was what made Whedon's Avengers stand out for me. That's the treatment INFINITY WAR needs. The double-movie turning out like a marathon of a mini-series would be awful, no matter how good the script.
>>
>>82605800
>I did love the twist though. I'm sure some people might have seen it coming but I sure as hell didn't.

It was brilliant. I was just fixated on the serum, "why do they keep showing those bags all the time", and completely dismissed the car and the people driving it as irrelevant. And then the bags were just a red herring all along. It saved the movie, really.
>>
>>82611696
I guess I would have just preferred having an entirely different focus for the 3rd film. Civil War was shit. Everyone even partially interested in comics knows the book was utter trash. I can't accept that anyone at Marvel believes the story has any merit at all given how within three years everything it did in the comics was reversed. So why the fuck did they even bother with the storyline in the movies?

That decision to do Civil War is what leads into all the other problems the film has. They could have easily just done a flip of the Jason Bourne films with Steve hunting down Bucky and needing to do so alone because of his wanted status by world governments.
>>
>>82603790
>Where was you when the Based Russo's not only saved cape shit, but took the source material and made it better? Isn't this how happy everyone was when Avengers 1 came out?
But the movie was so disjointed.

On the one hand it in part had the tone of The Winter Soldier but then it felt like an Avengers sequel. A solid completion of the story set up for Cap would have sufficed.

Was it enjoyable? Yes. But was it critically good? It felt quite like they overfilled the movie. And things came and went. The overall discussions on the ethics of what were being proposed were too quickly dealt with and thrown away on a story that was more about the Winter Soldier.

We have all these great little bits that put a smile on my face, like Ant Man on an arrow. But they kinda felt cheap and wasted over all because the battle we were being sold was not as grand as we expected. it was ten minutes of gathering extra people just to steal a quinjet. That's right. Ant Man flew all the way to Europe just to help them steal a quinjet.

There has been a lot of discussions on the movement away from origin stories. And it is fine. Black Panther was introduced fine. But then you have Spider-Man also in there. Black Panther drove the plot. Spider-Man did not. Sure it was a great cameo. But it did not add to the overall story.

So we ended up have so many different arcs in this movie and each act feeling too different from the last one. And what was it all for?

The Winter Soldier felt like it changed things. This didn't really do the same.

Well it was designed to be hold superhumans should it need to. Just because it's only holding one superhuman at the time doesn't mean it shouldn't still have the capacity to hold more.

>>82611924
>The overall discussions on the ethics of what were being proposed were too quickly dealt with and thrown away on a story that was more about the Winter Soldier.

Neither sidelines the other. Rather, Bucky effectively embodies the whole problem. His character shows that the kind of situation that demands free reigns for the heroes isn't necessarily about beating up some really bad guy; it can mean saving a person who simply doesn't deserve what's coming for him. That's what being a hero is really about. Saving, not destroying. So not only did the movie complete the circle on the Winter Soldier's plotline, it did it through the CW story, which made it that much more beautiful.

But yeah, I do agree that most of the heroes, Spidey in particular, were barely involved.

>But Cap is also right because a lot of the situations the Avengers deal with can't be beholden to a committee

Of course they can. And the Avengers are not directly forbidden of taking immediate actions.

The accord prevents them from acting without a plan or considerations. That means, if the avengers blow up houses in the process, they would be backed up by the government, providing shelter, medical support, security, etc. Not just walking home after defeating the bad guy.

If the UN decides 5 Winter Soldiers are a pretty big deal, Russia would have to swallow the Avengers.
>>
>>82612132
Tony is an idiot for not advocating that the Avengers have a say in the accords and that they are allowed to sit down and make deals about what is in the law.

Its just thrown at them saying "sign this, we did the best we could" at that's that.

>>82612104

You have no idea how the UN works do you? Russia only has to say "fuck off" and that's the end of it. You need a unanimous vote by the security council to pass anything through the UN.
>>
>>82612321

He clearly states that the accords were already settled.

He said once it gets out of the media, and after the first measurements take place, then it can be discussed.
But it needed to be signed, or else they'd be criminals or retired. That was the initial deal.
>>
>>82612354

And even if the UN actually shut them out and decided something, Russia would still say fuck off and nothing would happen, because otherwise it would mean nuclear war.

I liked him. From the start, he realized his weaknesses (he knew he could never fight the Avengers), so he just used what he's good at (wasn't he like a Sokovia special ops or something and had decent infiltration skills) and let the Avengers do the actual fighting.

And in the end, he actually accomplished his goals, far more than Loki and Ultron and other super powered villain in the MCU.

No, because if any of those vote "no", then they can just as fine say "fuck russia" and do the mission. The government would have to talk the diplomacy after that.

Every action has consequences, and the avengers are signing an accord that shifts the blame to goverments instead of themselves as a private thing.

Well, Russians don't give a fuck about western media and they censor their own. They'd unload their military budget on the Avengers the moment they'd step across the border, never minding the collateral damage.

To me the whole film shines a light on the dysfunction between Warner Brothers and DC.

I think a huge part of the success of the Marvel films is how they embrace the Comic Book Material. See picture.

While Warner brothers seems to be embarrassed by it. They try for Muh real world problems or change the characters in the films to a near unrecognisable character to their Comic Book counterparts. Case in Point: Jonah Hex and Superman. Sure they have cool moments ripped right out of the pages but without context or meaning. Just a "Wow this looks cool" approach.

The reason The Dark Knight was so good because Nolan did not follow the Warner Brothers Comic book Movie playbook and embraced to comics with many elements, plots characters that were true to its comic book counterpart.

Plus Jesus H Christ BVS was a gloomy Gus of a movie.

Marvel showed you can have real world type characters, intricate plots that are heavy but they embrace and love the comics while there seems to be a near hatred of the Comics at Warner Brothers

And most of all Marvel makes enjoyable pictures. I mean really who's wants a Superman with a supercomplex with a douchebag Kent's screwing him up
>>
>>82612804

>Which is what you just fucking advocated by saying they should just ignore any veto vote and do it anyway.

That's exactly not what I said. There's a difference in doing whatever you want, and doing whatever you want dealing with the consequences after.

The whole point of the accords is that whatver action the Avengers take, the population would be accounted for, and the Avengers would receive the corresponding penalty if the UN deemed it irresponsible.

>NOT a fucking Secretary of State

Seems like the secretary of State is in charge in the MCU

Which brings this discussion down to speculation, since nobody knows how the MCU politics works.
>>
>>82612870
No, the Marvel movies disregard and fundamentally change it's source material just as much as any DC movie. Civil War itself was literally nothing like it's comic counter part. Guardians of the Galaxy might as well have been totally original characters. Your opinion here is unfounded.

>The reason The Dark Knight was so good because Nolan did not follow the Warner Brothers Comic book Movie playbook and embraced to comics with many elements, plots characters that were true to its comic book counterpart.

Actually, the reason Nolan was successful was because his Batman was really brought to reality, instead of looking like it was shy of being a comic book movie, it really just wasn't.

What WB did with BvS and MoS was tone down the comic book elements, whilst Nolan just got rid of them and pretended Batman was a real dude in our real world.

Point is, you either embrace comics or just don't. Standing in the middle is awkward.

yes you did. You said that the Avengers should be able to ignore a veto vote by the UN security. This is exactly the same thing as unilateral action because it is disregarding the legislation in place.

There's nothing preventing the UN prior the accords sitting down and examining any events the Avengers are involved in and requesting penalty or aid in the aftermath.

Tony should have been marked as wrong as soon as he advocated child soldiers.

Super hero comic book tone. This movie gave what the viewers expected, a smorgasbord of heroes fighting each other, impossible feats of action, lighthearted tone where it needed be, then added some serious stuff.

Even though Nolan grounded his series, they still had comic book characters dealing with comic book problems

Snyder starts in with the questions about the nature of vigilantism and what makes a man, and it falls flat because the answer to the question is of course vigilantism is ok because otherwise we wouldn't have a movie, and he goes portrays these characters as gods because it's still a superhero movie

>>82613732
I'm just getting what that anon meant. He didn't mean like a 1:1 adaptation of the comic book source, like that one anon replied. He means that it's still a movie with people with super powers and crazy shit that you don't normally see in other movies, and it's unashamed to show it as it is.

Maybe I'm not wording it right but I understand what that anon meant.
>>
>>82613723

Spidey was literally the strongest super being in that fight. The only threat to him was Wanda and the fact that he's still inexperienced.

For those of you who actually READ Civil War, was the friendly fire accident with Rhodey an attempt to mirror the death of Goliath mid-fight?
>>
>>82613994
It isn't though. Marvel movies try just as hard to be rooted in realism and tone down their characters just as much as DC movies. Civil War was more low key and realistic than Batman Vs Superman, which actually had far more fantastical elements in it. This whole point you're trying to make is unfounded
>>
>>82605237
>>82605312
What are the chances that they'll meet the Guardians along the way?
>>
>>82613916
Different cultures have different forms of afterlife. Even heaven sounds different to that. You don't reach out with your hands in heaven and no one is leading you to somewhere. Depending on who you'll ask, some Christians will say you will talk to God or an angel upon reaching heaven and be evaluated or something like that. BP is just saying that they believe someone will literally guide you around once you reach the afterlife. Widow says it's peaceful since it is a comforting thought that someone is there to hold you and guide you around when you arrive.

Dude, one director said "i'm not confortable with characters talking a lot in costume", the others didn't

It's true, both franchises are grounded in realistic, to whatever extent, settings, what the other anons are saying is that with it's last two movies WB/Snyder tried to "elevate" the superheroes, because apparently being fantastical is not enough. Snyder openly says that he sees Batman and Superman as something "transcendent"

BvS doesn't allow superheroes to fight because of what they think, they're fighting because "THEIR EXISTENCE SHAKE THE VERY UNDERSTANDING OF OUR REALITY! They don't obey God's law! Earth is for humans, down with *the* superman!" and shit like that, because being costumed special people isn't enough, they HAVE to be more, otherwise the director can't feel important about it

Like, imagine if at the end of Iron Man during the interview to Tony some fanatic came up and screamed "YOU MONSTER, with your technology you're turning yourself into a God! What can we puny humans do against you! Icarus rises, Icarus rises!"

And the world would have been destroyed shortly after, assuming they wouldn't have just busted out of jail to deal with shit.

Tony may have been the one who provided a means for Ultron to obtain a body, but he didn't create him. The flashback of "Peace in our time" was from the scepter's point of view and it was the hologram of the AI in the scepter that attacked J.A.R.V.I.S. Put that together with the fact that there were Ultron bodies in Strucker's facility where the scepter was found and sooner or later it would have happened without Stark.

Unless Hydra had already taken over the world via Project Insight while Captain America was in jail. Actually it might have still happened anyway just with Hydra trying to stop him instead of the Avengers stopping him.

Tony totally created Ultron, using the scepter.

>Put that together with the fact that there were Ultron bodies in Strucker's facility where the scepter was found and sooner or later it would have happened without Stark.
It absolutely was not inevitable.

Letting the Avengers act unilaterally in the name of saving lives is the same kind of thinking that resulted in Project Insight.

There IS a debate, and it is ultimately the debate between oligarchy and representative democracy. I don't pretend to know a lot about it, but I like the way Legend of the Galactic Heroes discusses it, which feels fairly non-biased.

On the one hand, you have autocracy/oligarchy/kratocracy (Cap's side), which is appealing because decisions can be made quickly and sweepingly without weird redtape, riders, corruption, etc. The problem is, WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN, or who gets to decide who's in power? You only get a good leader if you're lucky. The good times will probably only last for a generation, because the heir will suck or there'll be a coup.

On the other hand, you've got bureaucracy, but you also have oversight. (This is Tony's side). The people's power isn't absolute, but they still hold the final say. If someone tries pulling some shit, they'll get kicked out. There's accountability here, not in an oligarchy. And there's more consistency in power; you're not gambling on whether the heir got the good genes (he probably didn't).

All this is really obvious, but I'm just saying this is what the debate really comes down to. Which side appeals to you more personally? Most cape stories lean away from bureaucracy because they're almost all about vigilantes -- vigilantism just makes for better fantasy fulfillment, etc. And this movie is certainly biased toward Cap as well for that same reason. So my guess is most people that like comics and like this movie lean away from the bureaucratic mindset.
>>
>>82611215
>Cap is just wailing on a clearly beaten Tony
You didn't watch the same movie I just got out of. Cap stops when the suit is neutralized. Stark isn't beaten until his suit's core is smashed, which is exactly how Cap ends it.

>>
>>82615390
That's a different beast. And why we can't really fully blame one side or another. Just like us Cap have very good reasons to doubt the true reasoning behind the accords but Tony doesn't see that way and he does have a point in the Avengers needing some sort of way to answer to their responsabilities more effectively. But we know Ross and his people are definetely the wrong option.

My guess is that Cap and the Outlaw Avengers will finally come out of the shadows once a truly trustworthy authority appears to handle the team's activities. It's sugguested Fury and Hill will reappear in future films. Maybe they'll have something to do with it?

I found Black Widow's role in the movie. She was the most level headed person in the film and the one who truly experienced both sides of the argument.

She's got a lot more to feel guilty about than that.

Then they see him flying around the world in fancy armours to "save" people as if he was much more than a weapons-maker. Normal peasants already seemed to resent the Avengers for being so high and mighty, starting wars in a country that's not theirs, add to that an already existent (although somewhat irrational) grudge and you get the twins' perspective on the "hero"

I think the opportune time to bring back Zemo is to do it unexpectedly in Phase 4. Because after Phase 4, likely the surviving Avengers will be heroes for defeating a Universe-level threat, and based on what we saw here, that's just not acceptable to Zemo. So I don't know what film or in what capacity he'll return, but I feel there's a lot they could do with the character, simply building directly on what' already been established.

He's 100% right, though. The only thing Stark's guilty of is arrogance and fucking up as a result of it. Wanda, at the time, did what she did entirely out of spite, and people got hurt because of it. It wasn't a case of not knowing what she was doing, either; she saw inside of Stark's mind and knew that he would do something desperate and stupid to protect his friends (she even smiles at the idea of him fucking up and getting people hurt if it meant the Avengers would suffer for it.) She only turns heel when she realizes Ultron wanted to start a cataclysmic event, but everything he did up until then, including dealing with a dangerous weapons dealer and making him a billionaire, was apparently totally cool with her.

Tonyfags are one thing, but Wandafags are the fucking worst apologists out there. The worst you can say about Tony is that he's a pompous jerk that tends to fuck up sometimea, but he doesn't make a good waifu, so I guess he just doesn't get the same "literally did nothing wrong" treatment Wanda does.

I loved the fact that Falcon was actually cool. It was nice because the team moved and worked well. You didn't get a sense of X hero is holding back because Y hero needed to feel like they were capable. Even Hawkeye and Blackwidow were great and again you saw how normal humans could run with metas and hold their own, and ALL of the heroes had their little arcs that made sense.

Panther and Spiderman stole the show for me. Panther was done really, really well. I was afraid they were going to go all "Wakanda invented anti-gun technology centuries ago", but they did him justice and really, really hyped me for a BP movie. Spiderman really felt awesome in this film. I think it was a great opportunity to show him off by only having him only appear in that one fight. You got to actually FEEL how strong and agile he was and his quips and jokes were the more spot on of any Spiderman we have seen in a movie. When he grabbed WS' hand like it was nothing when everyone else had been fighting around it.... ARRRGH I am both happy we will get to see more and angry we had to wait this long.

I want a Black Widow and Hawkeye movie where they team up and do lots of little stuff on the side. I would love it if there was a scene with Hawkeye and BW helping out the government's Avengers stealth mode without letting them know. Just end the scene with Tony finding an arrow lodged in bomb's detonator to let him know he had help.
>>
>>82618579
I wouldn't mind that. Because see, they already explained why this Zemo is smart enough to know he can't take the Avengers in a head-on fight. So why would he pick up his sword, get his best tank of Adhesive X, and go try to destroy them had on now? But if he could manipulate the creation of a team that appears to the public to be reformed people, and show the public them falling, Maybe he could discredit the entire idea of superheroes to people.
>>
>>82618661
They definitely had a long brainstorming session regarding how to get more out of one-note-on-paper characters like Falcon, and it paid off. I really appreciated them using him for recon and his bullet shield wing formations in the fight scenes.
>>
>>82618681
Or perhaps he could take villains and give them fake pasts that make them seem like victims of the Avenger's actions. Then he has them trying to hunt down the illegal Avengers for Ross. They could give him an exoframe/skeleton similar to what they think is inside Iron Man's armor, but they don't actually have the armor tech. That would let him stick to his idea of a 'normal human' but still fight some metas head on.
>>
>>82618602
That's the exact reason I like Wanda. She has that darkness in her. While Tony and Vision want to lock her in a gilded cage like a cursed princess, Steve and Clint want to help her temper her darkness through hard work and dedication to the life of a protector

I loved how they made the non-metas actually feel like they had their place. AoU was annoying because they were taking down drones with relative ease which made the threat feel like a joke rather than making them feel strong. But in this one they clearly choose their battles and showcase how effective they are against the proper enemy. Black Widow felt unstoppable when she was fighting Crossbone's goons.

I want so many different movies of the non main-cast Avengers already. War Machine deserves a solo, Widow/Hawkeye teamup movie would be tits, Maybe a Falcon/Ant-Man or Vision/Wanda teamup too.
>>
>>82619167
> War Machine deserves a solo

I feel like War Machine was the notable exception to that other guy's rant about how awesome everyone was. Dude was lame as fuck.
>>
>>82619167
Maybe after Ant-Man and the Wasp, if it succeeds, they'll see themselves as open to do movies about Superhero duos, and one of those you mentioned will happen. They're already considering a Black Widow movie. A cat-and-mouse spy movie with Barton tracking Black Widow across the world trying to take her down for SHIELD is something I've wanted for a while.
>>
>>82619255
Warmachine's arc was that of a soldier, he represented the soldiers that are wounded while fighting for what they believe in. His arc is subtle and mainly at the end, but he does get to kick some serious ass in the movie.
>>
>>82619255
I feel like as soon as Falcon came in, and basically did War Machine's "black sidekick" role with more charm and humor, even if he's less powerful, he kind of upstaged Don Cheadle. War Machine in the movies is kind of a big nothing to me. He's a straight-edge, serious, pro-establishment military guy, but he's not particular notably "tough", even if his suit looks tougher. He's not notable for being shown as a leader, I think he is in some capacity, but that never really comes out, so he doesn't have that like other more straight-and-narrow characters like comic Cyclops or Captain America. In fact, he's a bit like movie Cyclops, but blander. And his suit is a less flashy Iron Man suit with guns, so he's barely notable there either.
>>
>>82619722
>I feel like as soon as Falcon came in, and basically did War Machine's "black sidekick" role with more charm and humor,

Agreed, Falcon is just cooler despite being less powerful. Probably helps that he's not just a grey version of another hero.
>>
>>82619722
I felt that Cheadle was best outside of the suit, particularly in the debate scenes. Tony just kind of snarked his way through them or pulled up the dead kid like it was a Yu-Gi-Oh trap card but Rhodey actually made points.
>>
>>82619916
Agreed. Colonel James Rhodes, who has supported superheroes working with the government since the beginning, and who keeps that belief even at the end, after facing adversity, is a much more interesting entity than War Machine, the other Iron Man.
>>
>>82619916

I feel like that debate just drove home the fact that no one gives a shit about Rhodey. Like, the whole team was a family but Rhodey's just that guy they tolerate being around because Tony likes him. I mean, every time he talked to Cap it felt like there was nothing between them, like even Vision and Cap are more comfortable together. And what is Rhodey to the others? Even Falcon is on good terms with Widow and warms up to Bucky pretty quickly. Rhodey's just a guy that's there. He doesn't fit into the team dynamic at all.

But why? Why do you want Zemo to fight CAp head on?

Loki had given up fighting Thor directly because he could not win, because he fought and always lost. So why would Zemo ever even bother in his case either?

Zemo is clearly best when he isn't personally fighting. Much like it makes no sense for Nick Fury to fight on the front lines unless he was forced to.

Because Rhodey wasn't an Avenger. He is the only person Tony trusted with another Iron Man suit. He doesn't fight with the Avengers and he is more like the military's weapon. He was there are another 'empowered' individual who had a stake in the accords because they technically effected him.

The one thing I love most about this movie is how we get little glimpses of Bucky's old self under all the mindfuckery. They could have easily kept him brooding and tortured the entire movie, but we got some actual personality out of him from time to time like in OP's pic or in small moments with Cap. I thought it was really well done.

Actually all the main cast in this movie is pretty damn likeable. Even Rhodey, who has the least representation in the movie, has good moments.

That's still pretty creepy though. An if I was in that situation I'd always wonder if it's just that he's looking for a substitution.

Man you guys really liked the Stark lines in this but I kept rolling my eyes during those scenes because he's a motherfucking science bitch who's been trying to be more responsible lately too and so he out of everyone should understand what fancy fucking mind control technology does to people. Hell he saw firsthand with Loki's Staff before. Does he seriously feel that killing a man whose violated body killed his parents as a puppet will make him feel better? Even if he's just freaking out emotionally that fight was fucking long and he seemed pretty capable of lucid conversation. And then he gets a sappy letter from Cap saying he's sowwy but that he still knows better than him and suddenly he's totally alright?

>>
>>82606727

You're forgetting about all the super top secret shit he was able to dig up, like finding the code that resets Bucky. It takes more than just "being some guy" to do that.
>>
>>82626895
Emotional tension at that moment is at a perfect pitch. He's reacting not only to the fact that he's face to face with the man who actually killed his parents, mind control or no, but he also has to deal with the breach of trust from Steve with not telling him before. And now Steve is standing in the way, treating his relationship with Bucky as something more important than the relationship with him. It probably ate away at him pretty often.

If this reveal had happened early on in the movie, then Tony would have probably realized pretty fast that he can't blame Bucky for it. He's reacting purely based on how much shit he's had to deal with those past few days. Even the most competent and rational person can become enraged when just the right buttons are pushed, and nothing's as effective to a superhero's emotional response as a good ol' parent death.

The letter didn't make things alright. It made him gain perspective. He's probably still with Rhodey in regards to the accords, but he probably understands why Cap did what he did.
>>
>>82627284
So after the entire fight when he's forced to calm down he spits out the shield line and it sounds more like spite than anything else. I don't really like that and it makes the letter scene more awkward.
>>
>>82627335
He felt like Cap betrayed his trust. He said it because he was still seeing Cap willingly aid Bucky instead of him. He saw his father's biggest pride helping his father's (and mother's ) killer. It's kind of a fucked up situation.
>>
>>82612315

On the one hand, they can't really kill anyone because they need to save main character deaths for the crossover Avengers movies.

On the other hand, the Civil War source material and the tone of the film itself almost demanded a death. And we didn't get one. Not even Zemo. And then Cap releases all the heroes who were imprisoned, so that's just undone right there in the same movie.

It's a great movie, but I felt a little cheated. The Civil War is a REALLY BIG DEAL, even in the movie. At the end of the day, though, it just doesn't feel like there were enough consequences of that REALLY BIG DEAL.

>>82628345
I was talking about it in the sense that just because they're broken out doesn't really do much for the team, outside of SW, without their weapons.

Also I assume that anyone who would be trying to recapture Scott would track Pym and make getting another suit difficult. Not even considering what giving someone else the ants suit and falcon gear would do
>>
>>82628436
>make shrinking suit
>shrink it

>>
>>82628436
We're literally getting another Ant-Man film on the way so at least is more or less confirmed Pym will fimd the way. Not sure about Falcon, though.
>>
>>82623295

They should've had War Machine and Vision assist in fighting Crossbones and his goons.
>>
>>82628600
Looked like they took the guys who could keep a low profile. Iron Man and War Machine are obvious and noisy as fuck, and Vision can't blend in anywhere.
>>
>>82619255

They are seriously underusing War Machine in the MCU. While Civil War was the first time they've really written him properly since Iron Man 2, they still had him job throughout the movie.

I think they need to give him some standout, badass action scenes that set him apart for Iron Man, as well as find him a better purpose in the MCU.

I'd have him appear in Captain Marvel's movie as Carol's mentor.
>>
>>82628629

Yeah I guess that's true. But I wish they would've had some scene with War Machine working amongst the other New Avengers prior to the split.
>>
>>82619255
>I feel like War Machine was the notable exception to that other guy's rant about how awesome everyone was. Dude was lame as fuck.

He was better here than he's ever been since Iron Man 2. I'd call that an improvement.
>>
>>82628197

Marvel should emphasize his tank like nature more to differentiate him from Iron Man.

Panther - yes
Spidey - what did they do in terms of the character that was any different than Garfield? Just have him as a younger kid? The original reason why ASM2 was terrible never rested on having a shitty Spiderman, the rest of it was a train wreck.

Garfield has the looks but absolutely zero charisma. Spidey in CW manages to look like fucking Al Pacino in comparison, despite being just a fucking kid. And they really nailed his banter and moves.

Sounds like we'll be getting 2 Mediocre-to-bad X-men Films and 2 genuinely awful X-men films next up.
(X3's not good, but it's great when compared to Wolverine Origins, which means the eventual drop in quality is going to be pretty spectacular)

Just got back from seeing it.

Cool fight scenes, some well done feelsy moments and camaraderie, mostly relied on being jarring and vague to progress the story which got tedious.

Could have been worse considering the sheer amount of shit they were tying together while introducing two new challengers to the field.

spiderboy was alright, kid jokes are already overdone

There were times you could tell he was having fun during the airport battle. That scene where he geeked out over Bucky's arm for one.

When exactly will he master his spider sense or more like have a better grip on dealing with it?

Some food for fapthought for you:

She tells him not to do the wallphase into her room anymore, even if the door is already open.

Consider the context of the first time that happened.

>On a tangentially related note, were all of their weapons stored on the Raft? Certainly they weren't stupid enough to imprison ANTS/Falcon/Hawkeye in the same place they were also storing their suits/weapons right?
Falcon is a spy like Widow, so he likely has spare equipment in storage lockers at random places.
Antman's suit, where ever it is stored, would likely be stolen back off screen or in the Wasp film. And when they steal it back they could probably steal the bird costume on the way out.

no

His jetpack is one of a kind, now anyway.

He's lost Tony's support, but he's almost certainly in good with T'Chala. Wouldn't be surprised if he got some vibranium wings in the future.

Though I kinda want to see the hard light wings at some point.

Is there anything that the DCEU has got over the MCU now? Music, direction, writing, box office records, visual design, actor performances, and so on. The MCU comes out ahead in every category.

They have their traditional A-listers. MCU got spidey back but F4 and Xmen are still out of reach...

Nothing can top this scene. Superman is literally struggling with the weight of the world and just keeps on pushing.

Whatever the movie turned out to be, this trailer is easily one of the best pieces of cinematic superhero media ever made.
>>
>>82633063
Because that's what Snyder's movies are.
They are movies to make trailers out of them, even the movies feel like 2 hour long trailers with the way the movies are paced and the dialogue.

People did say Russos are good at juggling huge cast (Community, Arrested Development)
>>
>>82625589
>>82625626
Holy shit I didn't even notice he said something coherent when I watched the movie. That adds a lot to the scene.
>>
>>82635067

Yet Spidey's appearance was completely disconnected, Vision, Ant-Man and Clint were barely involved. I'm willing to forgive all that because of the stuff that did work, but this was definitely not a good sample of their skill at managing a big cast.
>>
>>82631608
I don't get why Elijah Wood
>>
>>82635132
I disagree. Black Widow and Tony had a scene where they admit they're lacking of people now. Tony being resourceful, he pulls out a guy who webs things to web up Cap's team.

Clint's back to get out Wanda, and you can tell that's a big reason for him to get out of retirement due to what happened to her brother with him.

Ant-Man's cooperation was already hinted with Falcon. Also it's not a stretch Pym agreeing just to wreck Stark.

It's a good sample of their skill at managing a big cast because at the end of the movie, you can remember a scene from each of them. They each have a moment to shine.

That's what they do in Community and Arrested Development.
>>
>>82631548
They weren't. No one knew he was 15 and WM kept asking about his age. Although Empire Strikes Back being an old movie is a weird metric to have for that; I'm nearly 26 and that movie came out when my mom was a kid.
>>
>>82635531
I think Rhodey's comment was more supposed to mean "Tony, how young is this guy to mention geeky stuff like that in the middle of a fight?"
>>
As somebody that hasn't seen Age of Ultron. How much worse are Wanda and Vision in it? Because they seemed pretty fucking awful in this.
>>
>>82635713
Depends on what you mean. In general all the characters were pretty shit in Age of Ultron
>>
>>82603790
Bitch, this movie is way better than that borefest Avengers and Avengers 2 were.

>WHOOPSIE DOODLE I GOT ARRESTED
>>
>>82635789
I wonder if he discussed it with Pym before running off with Clint.
>>
>>82632984
Too bad he's a fucking piece of shit in that movie.
>>
>>82635789
Pym can just bust him out of jail with ants anyway who gives a fuck
>>
>>82635826
More importantly, what's going to happen with him now since he is still a fugitive.
>>
>>82635846
The US government and his wife's husband.
>>
>>82635879
His wife's husband is cool with him and let him off the hook.
>>
>>82635789
That's kind of wrong.

Scott wanted to go straight but failed. He caved in and asked Luis about that job. After knowing about Pym, he's asked to infiltrate something again. I'm not sure if Pym employed him now or something, but it probably involves stealth again.

In the movie, he did say "What else is new?" after Cap tells him they're operating outside the law.

Scott has long realized that no matter how many times he attempts to go straight, it seems the crook's life follows him. At least after Ant-Man, he's hero-ing it up and earning dosh through Pym.
>>
>>82635713
They didn't get much characterization in there, but Wanda was driven by revenge against Tony for most of AoU, and Vision was more Jesus-y.
>>
>>82635889
Because he saved the world from a psychopath trying to sell weapons to a known terrorist organisation.

All he did this time was commit treason.
>>
>>82635905
Under the impression that there are frozen assassins in Siberia, which is true.
>>
>>82635905
This time he helped Cap find the guy who bombed the UN

The word treason is meaningless now, it just means "stuff the authorities don't like"
>>
>>82635927
Got any proof Cap?
>>
>>82635936
And assisting in the escape of a sleeper agent that was photographed bombing the UN.
>>
>>82635937
The bodies left in that frozen shit hole? It's not like Tony didn't say anything after that. Probably BP even had a press con about that, after turning in Zemo and maybe clearing Bucky's name as the bomber since he seems eager to at least help him find peace.
>>
>>82635957
an incarcerated suspect is under state protection. Steve was obligated to make sure Tchalla nor anyone else killed Bucky, not even people who outrank him.
>>

>>
>>82635789
What, you thought in the next Ant-man adventure he was going to ask the government's permission to do stuff?
>>
>>82635985
And after all of that the fact remains that the registration went ahead and Bucky was a murderer, whether he was knowingly murdering people or not. Scott is still a fugitive.
>>
>>82635957
To catch the real bomber

Really, the UN should be grateful Bucky was willing to help at all after they sent a hit squad after him.
>>
>>82635999
It's kinda glossed over that T'Calla is a head of state trying to commit an extra-judicial killing on foreign soil.
>>
>>82636029
>A criminal is let off the hook if he helps catch another criminal
>>
>>82626895

He's acting emotionally, which is fine for him to do. That doesn't make him right, but it fits his character and shows how selfish he really is.

He wasn't framed though. He did kill all those people. He was literally programmed by the Commies to do so.
>>
>>82636002

Renner joined that movie cause she was in it.

i really like how the marvel crew seems to enjoy each other
>>
>>82636024
I'm just saying there is proof that he operated under the correct assumption that there were frozen assassins, that's all. You asked proof, and I said the bodies left there and probably BP's statement after handing over Zemo.
>>
>>82636097
He was framed for the bombing, which was the whole reason they were chasing him tho
>>
>>82636097

Mind control is basically a get-out-of-jail free card in comics.

It worked for Hawkeye, it worked for Hulk, hell, SW wasn't even mind controlled, just deceived, and everyone's fine with her.
>>
>>82636044
Not off the hook but reduced sentences when cooperating is a thing
>>
>>82628551
falcon will probably get new wings from tony or something. and maybe cap's shield too, who knows.

antman can steal his suit back. scarlet witch is scarlet witch. clint is the interesting one. not sure he can just go home to his kids or what.
>>
>>82636136
The theme of this movie really lost a lot of potency without the Skrull invasion.
>>
>>82636136
Well, it kind of happens in real life as well
>>
>>82636157
>clint is the interesting one. not sure he can just go home to his kids or what.

He can buy a new bow at a sporting goods store. No one knows where his house is or that it even exists.
>>
>>82636182

Except the entirety of the Avengers, some of which are now working for the UN. Then again, the UN is so dumb that they probably don't realize the rest of the team knows where Clint's secret house is.
>>
>>82603790
It's still amazing that these two guys went straight from directing sitcom episodes to directing some of the best blockbuster/tentpole action movies around just because one of the episodes they directed was a parody of blockbuster/tentpole action movies.
>>
>>82636233
Stark is the only one on the UN's side who knows.

The only others who know are Cap, Banner, Thor, and Widow.

Also Ross has no way of knowing Tony knows where it is. It's not like the Avengers ever said "guess where we were last weekend? It's a SEEEEECRET" or anything like that.
