In your opinion, which movie had/was

>higher stakes

>better action
>a more satisfying conclusion
>more faithful to source material
>>
>>82884244
Both are shit, pretentious and fail at what it wanted to be but Civil War has a more satisfying conclusion and it's at least fun to watch.
>>
>>82884244
>higher stakes
BvS but we have no real clue what Abomination was going to do or even what he was currently doing but I can generally assume it's much worse than just dismantling a private taskforce

>a more believable feud
Cap vs Iron Man. Bats vs Supes was incredibly one sided and even if you can convince anyone he actually had a problem with Batman, they were both still tricked by Lex in the most idiotic way. Both Tony fighting Cap to kill Bucky and arguing over the Accords felt way more realistic than any conflict in BvS.

>better action
Civil War. All the action scenes were generally well done except for Widow's shaky cam scenes. The video game-y CGI of the final fight in BvS is just really off putting at times. I know you need it to really showcase Supes power but it gets pretty ridiculous at times.

>a more satisfying conclusion
Civil War I guess? Both had poor endings but I like what the end of Civil War implies. Nomad, Secret Avengers, anything really. The ending of BvS hints that Superman is coming back and that his death was just for cheap emotional impact while everybody knew they were going to form the JL.

>more faithful to source material
Neither but Civil War if I really had to give it to someone. The accords is the only real thing that can be comparable to the superhero registration act and the only thing that ties it to the comics. BvS on the other hand is not like The Dark Knight Returns at all or pretty much any of the World's Finest comics. Also Batman kills, Superman is broody, Lex is kooky.

Probably BvS.
Superman, Lex, Doomsday - they're all global threats the likes of which could do untold damage if out of check. Where as Civil War? They were all still good guys, the fued was about HOW they do their good. And Bucky. But it wasn't an end-of-the-world kinda deal.
>>a more believable feud
Civil War. By far. But they had some 12 movies to lay that foundation...They did give more compelling reasons for Stark and Cap to take the sides they took. Where as Batman and Superman fought because Lex... Tony and Steve would have fought regardless of Zemo - just to a lesser extent.
>>better action
I guess it's hard to say. BvS had some 'epic' fight scenes. Where as CW had some great 'Wow!' moments. I give it a tie, only because they're too different in this regard.
>>a more satisfying conclusion
Civil War.
>>more faithful to source material
Civil War was a far cry from the comic, but it still followed elements and themes present therein.
>>
>>82884244

>>higher stakes
Batman v Superman. Civil War (both movie and comic) fail to take into account how essentially powerless the government is to stop Superheroes, and that's kind of the point of Superheroes. They function as modern day mythological characters who are larger than life.

>>a more believable feud
Civil War. Tony Stark is a narcissistic dick, and that's kind of the point of him as a character. While Batman being crazy does make sense the point is that you want Batman to stop being crazy and actually become friends with Superman.

>>better action
Batman v Superman. Say what you will about Batman v Superman; you can't argue that the warehouse scene isn't the BEST cape action scene in cinema.

>>a more satisfying conclusion
Batman v Superman. I felt like I'd witnessed something epic, whereas at the end of Civil War I felt like I'd been introduced to two characters (Spiderman and Black Panther)

>>more faithful to source material
Well as Civil War is literally based on an actual comic story while Batman v Superman is an amalgamation of lots of different things. I'd say Civil War even though the comic is awful and they made some necessary change it still had many the same problems as the comic.
>>
>>82884582
>Tony and Steve would have fought regardless of Zemo

Not really. Take away the UN bombing and framing Bucky, and Steve just retires. The only way I see hom fighting then is if they did something fucked up to Wanda.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXPOl6EjbWg#t=97

The fights scenes in Winter Soldier were a bunch of close up/medium shot shaky cam. Boring as hell. Batman v Superman at least had a sense of visual wit to the fight scenes.
>>
>>82884958
>they couldn't fucking decide whether the casus belli was Bucky or the Accords

Bucky was the reason Cap went rogue. Cap had no reason to fight anyone over the Accords.

Accords were the reason Stark could be ordered to go capture him. Stark had no personal reason to give a single shit about Bucky.

Wow, it's almost as if neither happened in a vacuum and they both contributed

So the two main players in Civil Fucking War could not agree on what was the reason to fight each other. Not good for me.

Say what you want about BvS, but at least Batman had a clear motivation to fight Superman, while the latter tried to avoid a firect confrontation until the last moment.

Cap in CW and Superman in BvS both act selfishly but only BvS acknowledges it in the film. So it gets points for self awareness.

The thing is the movie being discussed isn't Winter Soldier.

If it were there might be an actual argument as the fight scenes in Winter Soldier are all pretty great. But the fight scenes in Civil War, barring the first one against Crossbones were pretty forgettable.

They didn't agree on whether to fight, that's vastly different. Bats had a reason, Superman wanted to avoid the fight. Superman clearly fought back only when he realized Batman had a way of killing him and dooming his mother in the process.

In CW, the two parties fought each other on completely different bases, bringing in people who had nothing to do with said reasons, but neither wehe in doubt on whether to fight each other.

>http://letterboxd.com/joshrosenfield/film/captain-america-civil-war/

>The real battle royale this summer isn't between Batman and Superman, or between Captain America and Iron Man, or between the X-Men and the purple guy. It's over the soul of blockbuster cinema. Marvel has clearly staked its claim, and DC announced its own perspective rather loudly a few months ago. The latter made a film which, while admittedly convoluted, was at least a stab at something grandiose and new. It didn't make logical sense, but it felt like it did. There was an emotional truth to every punch. The former studio doesn't make films so much as it engineers them on a factory line. They're designed to be CinemaSins-proof, but they come off more as automatons than anything else. Yes, Captain America: Civil War makes sense. It makes logical sense. But it doesn't make emotional sense. That's the side Marvel's taken for years. And they're winning.

The only thing BvS had over CW was stakes and only manchildren think death-counts makes a movie 'epic'. AOU has more at stake than IM1, that does not make it a good or more enjoyable movie.

BvS is legitimately a movie with no integrity. It's a movie with four advertisements right in the middle of the second act, ruining any pacing what so ever. It's a movie that forces a fight between the two titular characters; where one drops a toiler onto the other one, *clunk* sound effect and all. It's a movie where a third random character, someone who has had no real presence within the movie, appears in the final climax in order to sell the trinity.

It's just amazing to me that people think that BvS is some film that holds the story and its characters in high regard cause it's not.

He's an outlaw who does what's right. So basically a perfect fit for Cap's side. If he were the type to do what he felt was wrong to stay with his daughter while 100% obeying the law, the Ant-Man movie would not have happened.

Both of them were pretty good, but Civil War's big airport fight was awesome and BvS doesn't have an equivalent of a big sprawling fight that shows off so many varied characters effectively.

Actually, I say BvS. The only person in CW who had a clear character arc and ends up in a different place from where they started was Black Panther. Everyone else brings their character conflicts within the team to light but nothing is really done to resolve any of that conflict.

both of them diverge pretty hard from it. In Civil War's case though they miss all the stupid bits from the comics event, but BvS misses out on a lot of great opportunities as a result.

Absolutely irrelevant, IMO. These movies are adaptations of characters, not plots - and even then, the adaptations are just that: adaptations. It's fine for movie Batman to be more flexible with killing. I even think it was fine for movie Superman to kill Zod. The characters and plots are inspired by the comics, but they are not and should not be the same. Some things simply work better in comics than they do in live-action film/television. I mean, take Daredevil as an example - he has a strict "no killing" rule, but that actually really takes me out of it in the TV show because with the way he kicks the shit out of people there's no doubt several of the mooks will have had serious brain trauma, if not been outright killed - especially with that wrench in the stairwell. Human toughness is highly inconsistent; people often die from being punched once and then falling down and smacking their head on the sidewalk, while others fall out of planes without parachutes, get struck by lightning, or have fucking poles through their brain and still live.

I went on a bit of a tangent there.

All the actions were completely understandable and it's not to the point where it's not salvageable. These are completely realistic reactions.

>but that just proves you are more invested in Batman than in other characters.

Full disclosure I'm a total Batfag. But that warehouse fight scene and Ben's portrayal of Bruce made me so goddamn happy and I think it's the best live-action Batman we've got.

Oh, I'm not saying the crate throwing part is the best part of that movie, but it made me smile. Which is more than I can say for Civil War.

I will also say that I really like Captain America too, barring the Hulk Steve is my favorite Avenger and probably in my top fave favorite Marvel heroes (losing to Wolverine, Daredevil, the Hulk, and maybe someone else whom isn't coming to mind right now). I really liked The First Avenger, and I loved The Winter Soldier.

But Civil War DID NOT do it for me. I thought it was better than Age of Ultron, but that isn't saying much.

BvS, easily. CW was more of an internal thing, while BvS had a more actual, visceral threat.

CW. It was just as much a clash of personalities as a clash of ideologies. In comparison, BvS barely made sense and felt a lot more forced.

CW. BvS went for a grander, more "epic" feel and ended up feeling fake as fuck. CW wasn't as grand but as a result felt more grounded and real.

Neither. They both had pretty lackluster conclusions and felt like they needed to be much longer to wrap things up in a satisfactory way. Though I'm far more interested in what CW seems to be leading into than BvS, so I guess it wins in that regard at least.

They were making propaganda videos about him. The museum had videos full of testimony from people who met him. Maybe pay attention and you won't have to ask all these dumb questions. Yes, everyone knows about Captain America.

The American government has no incentive to hide the fact that Germany wanted to bomb New York and America's greatest hero stopped it. Because that whole story makes America look good. Especially when there were plans to make similar bombs to use on cities around the world. Now America has more ammo to add to the "we saved eveeyone's asses in WW2" narrative
Why the fuck would they keep that a secret?

BvS
When you are working with Superman you basically need bigger stakes, because he's just so powerful that anything else would seem, at least in a movie, too weak. Throw a Metal Gear against Cap or Batman and that can look like a serious problem, but against Supes it would just be laughable.
And, even ignoring that, they are still going for the kill in BvS, while for the most part the marvel heroes didn't want to kill

>>a more believable feud
CW by far. In BvS the latter didn't even had a real motivation for fight, he had to be forced to fight by Luthor to actually do anything.
Even the motivation of Batman is rather weak. He is supposed to be fighting because he doesn't trust Superman after what he and Zod did, but he really came out more like a bitter old hero that wasn't able to do anything and is envious of the new guy that is treated almost like Jesus by everybody

>>better action
CW
I can still remember parts of the airport fight and the final fight, while the BvS big fight is getting confused with an Italian superhero movie that is still better than BvS too because of how much forgettable it was

>>a more satisfying conclusion
CW. It actually worked as a conclusion of the Captain America trilogy and as a sequel to TWS, while BvS is so obviously just a prequel to Justice League and not its own movie that it's not even funny

>>more faithful to source material
Neither of them is much faithful to its source material, but I would say CW. Not that this last point is that important

After being shown all that, you question whether people knew Captain America existed? You dumb motherfucker.

Human toughness is highly inconsistent; people often die from being punched once and then falling down and smacking their head on the sidewalk, while others fall out of planes without parachutes, get struck by lightning, or have fucking poles through their brain and still live.
I actually noticed this in CW, where Captain America is trying to prevent deaths during the brawl with the German forces. It works for the most part, but then he starts slamming heads into walls and other such stuff. But that's just action movies for you.

>>82885964
That's not the problem at all. The problem is Zack thinks sex and violence automatically means 'adult and mature' and the absence of it means 'for kiddies'. It's a very infantile way of regarding fiction imo.
>>
>>82885964
>http://www.out.com/armond-white/2016/3/24/sexiest-batman-and-superman-imaginable

>The men of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice may not please eunuchy fanboys but anyone old enough to experience morning wood will appreciate it. Taking that comic book novelty where superheroes temporarily become rivals, Batman/Bruce Wayne (played by Ben Affleck) mistakenly blames the recent destruction of Metropolis and nearby Gotham City during an invasion of aliens on the mid-battle appearance of Superman (played by Henry Cavill). The antagonism between these specimen (Affleck follows Cavill’s already muscled-up example) is based on both men’s confused urge to do good. Each orphan’s personal torment and heroic ambition amounts to a passion. Grindr might match them, yet they’re initially mismatched which means that when they finally meet—and fight—it’s equivalent to a hate fuck.

>That’s because director Zack Snyder’s movies are adult comic books—“adult” as in the old label “For Mature Audiences Only.” He goes against the juvenile vicarious pleasure of comic book surrogate crime-fighters to something deeper. Snyder’s Batman with his five o’clock shadow, supersedes the morose hero of Christopher Nolan’s gloomy The Dark Knight trilogy, just as his Superman (also Clark Kent) junks the jovial Superman of the Christopher Reeve movies and Brandon Routh in Bryan Singer’s adolescent fantasy. Thanks to Cavill, Snyder’s Superman/Kent looks to be in perpetual tumescence.

>Snyder, who made the live-action antiquity layout 300, and produced 300: Rise of an Empire, can’t help but sexualize his superheroes. Yet it’s worth noting that this is part of his very grown-up interest in how characters act out their private drives. The personal is political for Snyder which means that although Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent clash, due to misreading each other’s citizenship, they share a testosterone bromance.
>>

>dbz fights

>so dark and brooding
Why doesn't Snyder move to Japan to make anime.
>>
>>82885964
The sex and violence have to make sense, not just be "Batman can totally be ass raped" just to make the story 'edgier'
>>
>>82886004
>They look good together because Affleck’s puffy-chin adult petulance (recalling his role as TV’s Superman George Reeves in Hollywoodland) may be the moodiest performance he’s ever given while Cavill’s virility (so chiseled it may well be from another world—the world of Sean Connery knock-offs) fits him to yin-yang completeness. Their confrontations disprove the delusion that men cannot make love face-to-face, the same way men fight. (Gay political pundit Andrew Sullivan makes a cameo appearance protesting “Every act is a political act!”)

>Ignore all that Internet nonsense against Affleck’s casting; he’s a warmer presence than Christian Bale’s stoic Batman who, at best, seemed a selfish lover. Check The Brothers Grimsby where Sacha Baron Cohen jokingly referred to the henchman played by Scott Adkins as “Ukrainian Ben Affleck;” it certified a hotness type. And smoldering Cavill wears the Superman uniform like a second skin. Costumer Michael Wilkinson’s brocade Superman suit is successful fetish gear—textured fabric with sequin octagonals invite you to touch that thin line between drag queen and stud. Male intimacy in this film gives new meaning to the old phrase “iron fist in a velvet glove.”

>If fanboys don’t cream to Batman’s dream sequence (“It took me to the lie, a beautiful lie” Wayne says), grown-up gay men surely will. In his dream, Batman wears a leathery mask, hiding his identity, while he is taunted by wasplike creatures and forced to acknowledge Superman’s equivalent virility. This goes beyond Guy Ritchie’s boy-boy teasing in last year’s The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (which co-starred Cavill). It is the most surreal dominance-submission dream in Hollywood history. But Batman v Superman is also a political allegory, using masculine sex appeal to examine America’s current political confusion. Zack Snyder’s comic book avatars are not for children.
>>
>>82885964
>when people want them to be "innocent."
People loved a movie where the core issue was that Superheroes, no matter how hard they try or how good their intentions, leave behind a trail of broken lives and may not even be able to lead satisfying lives themselves.

Also, we live in a world where a Deadpool solo film made more money than a Superman solo film. People don't necessarily want "innocent." I couldn't begin to tell you what people want, because otherwise I'd be a rich marketer, but "innocent" isn't it.

That was an interesting read. I never thought about a queer reading for Batman v Superman, but thinking about it there's definitely quite a bit there.

I mean it was already a fairly big exploration of masculinity in general, but then again pretty much every Superhero film good or bad is.
>>
>>82886065

Not the guy you're replying to, but I agree with him that that is a load of bullshit. Not because superheroes can't be homoerotic - Batman and Superman have had so, so many moments where the reader basically has to go "FUCK'S SAKE JUST FUCK ALREADY", and the entire thing is filled to the brim with muscled paragons wrestling each other.

But nothing in BvS has anything to do with "adult", and any possible gay appeal there is purely based on the fact that Cavill and Affleck are a pair of certified fucking hunks. That is it. That's all. Cavill could spend the entire movie simply walking and smiling at the camera and he would induce boners.
>>
I wish people would've stopped defending BvS and instead push WB to get rid of Snyder. It was possible, but there were enough people defending it for WB to spin it and call it "polarizing".

I'm a DC fan and even I can admit it was crap. The shilling for BVS on /co/ is pathetic. There's no shame in saying a product is no good and they need to do better.
>>
Both were kind of silly
could easily just have had the characters discuss their problems, Though at least BvS showed that Batman was completely bonkers and would not have listened

The problem i will always have is any comic/movie/anything that is focussed around people wanting to control superhero types (mutant registration/ HUAC in JSA/ the accords in civil war)

because no one is allowed to go around beating the crap out of private citizens without being dragged into a court of law (even if they were justified) and violate the sovereignty of a nation.

I really liked the stairwell fight in Civil War. The airport fight was just goofy and felt out of place for an otherwise serious film (ant man was cool though)

bats and super mother having the same name is just as silly as bucky being winter solider and also murdering starks parents (like really...what are the fucking chances???)

I liked both films though. BvS gets attacked too much and Civil War isn't attacked enough. Id probably give the edge to Civil War though

Now see this is an interesting question. NEITHER is particularly faithful to the source material, painting their conflicts and characters in broad strokes. But, I think Civil War is better for it, and the spirits of the characters are largely intact, while the original flavor of BvS is to its detriment.

Overall and at the end of th day however, I was satisfied enough with CW to watch it twice, and I only got through the entirety of BvS out of spite and not wanting to be one of those guys that leaves the theater midway.
>>
>>82885964
Then how come the superhero movie that had a scene where the title character gets pegged is more popular than BvS?
>>
"Stakes" as defined by these threads is such a meaningless metric for quality. Having "high stakes" boils down to "how many extras do we see running around and dying and being threatened".

And that's bullshit because Age of Ultron had the bad guy threatening an extinction level event; we still don't consider Ultron a great villain or the movie very good. Thor 2 went a step further and had the bad guy there threatening all nine realms, that's at least 9 earth sized planets. It still, justifably, ranks lowest on people's score cards.

People that use "stakes" as a measure of anything other than the creator's destruction boner are so desperate to have a leg up on what they view as competition that they've latched onto the dumbest thing possible.

Perhaps change it to believable stakes.

>higher stakes

BvS

>a more believable feud

BvS was more believable given what happened in MoS and that Bruce has been Batman for 20 years which turned him into a murderous cynic that had to be put down, Bruce and Clark also don't know each other and all they've seen is them at their worst moments, BvS was poorly writen though. CW felt way more constructed and Zemo was nothing more than a plot device but at the end everything did fit better together.

>better action

CW had some nice character fanservice scenes which was nice to see for the first time but looked kinda bland in hindsight, specially because you know they were pulling punches. BvS had superman and wonder woman closest to their canon powerlevel fighting against a walking nuke and batman actually being an stealth ninja and martial arts beast with all his gadgets fighting in Arkham games style.

So yeah BvS.

>a more satisfying conclusion

CW, I really felt bad for Tony and hated that self-righteous asshole Cap at the end. While with BvS, I know what Snyder was going for yet he failed at the execution again. I liked what Batman said at supermans funeral though.

>>82885538
Regardless of him being brainwashed, he still fucking did it though
They touched on this for like, half a second in the movie and it almost saved it for me, but a normal fucking person would at least feel guilty about it, and bucky definitely would, especially MCU bucky. Theres no way he would be happy with getting off free for murdering all those people, and cap is a fucking cunt bag for not even trying to explain to tony what happened with his parents

yeah thats fucking great, him literally going to sleep until they can save him, that sure is a great punishment
>>
>>82888383
See here's the thing. I think what matters more is PERSONAL stakes. That doesn't have anything to do with belivability or how many people you're killing in the background or how many buildings you're knocking over. Like the main character's daughter being taken hostage? That's not probably going to end in the extinction of the human race, but we still feel for it.

That's why there's the cliche of characters saying "And this time, it's personal" and that's why it works. Because personal stakes have more emotional resonance with viewers. Small movies can be amazing too.

Even though I acknowledge that Civil War is a better movie, I still love BvS despite all the hate.

>>82884244
>>a more believable feud
>a more satisfying conclusion

Well let's see. One had the feud as incredibly one sided, even though that side was supposedly the "wrong" one, and was resolved with a single sentence. Literally "its his mother's name" and they're done. Conflict resolved. All that shit about how power corrupts and collateral damage and there's a chance he might go bad gets tossed out in four words. Best friends forever now!

The other has the characters actually talk abut their differences instead of just going straight into threats and dick waving. Everybody gets to make their stance clear, and each character raises some fairly cogent points. They talk like adults! What a concept! And as a result, people still arguing over who was right. Even has people that, when looking at the source conflict in the comics, are switching sides. And honestly I still haven't decided after three weeks and two viewings who's right because damn it they don't both have points.
>>
>>82884244
BvS for all except maybe fight scenes.
Even if it failed at least it tried while as always marvel just sticks to its quip filled formula.
>>
Why do people say BvS didn't do well? Didn't they like, triple their budget in ticket sales?

Okay, let's stop with the lazy criticism. Are 'quips' a bad thing? I cringe everytime someone on this site uses the latest new buzzword to criticize something without actually explaining why it's bad.
>>
>higher stakes
BvS, Doomsday was hit with a nuke and it only made him stronger, there was nothing humanity could to do to possibly stop him.
>a more believable feud
Cap and Iron Man both had good reasons to fight each other. Meanwhile, the world's greatest detective got tricked by newspaper clippings, Superman didn't want to fight Batman but did anyway for some reason.
>better action
I don't think the action in CW was better than TWS, but I'd probably chose it anyway. The airport scene was entertaining as well as creative, and the final fight in siberia was personal and had more of an impact than thousands of buildings and shit getting leveled.
>a more satisfying conclusion
I wasn't a fan of Cap and Iron Man still being friendly at the end of Civil War, it seemed a little eager to go back to the status quo. I would pick BvS if not for the lolsupermanisn'tactuallydead ending.

Neither are faithful, they took elements from both Civil War/TDK but not a lot.

Are you saying that whenever a psychic villain take control of common people in a story to make them do criminal shit (stealing from banks and things like that) the common people should be considered guilty because of it?
>Theres no way he would be happy with getting off free for murdering all those people
And not him nor Cap thought of getting off free. Have you actually seen that, after Bucky was arrested without being killed, Cap had no real problem with the fact, and only helped him when Zemo came back to fuck shit up?
>>b-but he froze himself at the end!!
>yeah thats fucking great, him literally going to sleep until they can save him, that sure is a great punishment
Why should he be punished? Nothing of what he did was because he wanted it.
They didn't froze him as a punishment, they froze him because that was the only thing to do to keep Bucky alive without making him an unexploded bomb that could be reactivated by whatever Hydra guy wanting revenge

>>82884332
I agree with this but the action.
Say what you will about Zack Snyder, dude can make some nice action.
Some people talk about how action in MoS and BvS gave them a headache or was hard to look at,
But the only time I've felt something like that was actually Civil War

Civil War would change cameras 5 times a second during the fighting scenes.
Especially some of the earlier fights that were mostly Street level fisticuffs.
My favorite action scene of Civil War was probably when Bucky and cap double team Ironman for a few seconds, and it is probably the only time they stay at one camera angle for at least 5 seconds.
>>
>>82884244
>higher stakes
Civil War. The relationships that were built over years of movies had higher stakes to me than the typical "fate of the world" stuff by the end of BvS.

>a more believable feud
Civil War. Why did Superman hate Batman for doing exactly the same thing he was doing?

>better action
Civil War. Hate to make this a sweep, but Black Panther's tunnel chase down of Bucky and the airport sequence was a lot more memorable than anything in BvS including Batman's brutal takedown of Lex's goons in the warehouse. Much of BvS' other fights feel like generic destruction to me. The real triumph of the airport sequence in Civil War was how much character they were able to show in the fight (Ant-Man turning to GiAnt-Man, Spidey's quips against others, etc.)

>a more satisfying conclusion
Civil War felt like The Empire Strikes Back of Marvel endings with the heroes on the run and the villain's plan being won. BvS had Superman kill himself in an incredibly contrived way.

BVS had a hilarious fakeout and the grave dirt floating confirming Superman's alive was big. Cap and Iron Man being friendly witch eachother and that last frame of Cap smiling just kind of fizzled. People cheered in my theater when the BVS dirt rose up but it was silent for the Cap smirk. Most people left before the after credits seen which was also pretty underwhelming.

CW, while obviously opening things for future movies, still works as a conclusion for the Winter Soldier story, while BvS was obviously just a set up for the future Justice League movies, what with introducing all those other superheroes (including WW that is there for no reason at all except create the holy DC trinity and could have been included easily with Flash and Aquaman) and having Batman with his dreams that means nothing except "There will be Darkseid"

>Majority saying BvS had higher stakes

BvS was one sided as fuck. The stakes were only high for exactly one party. Batman, because he was an arrogant idiot. For being the world's greatest detective he sure is a moron who can't figure out that Superman has no ill will against Earth. (There weren't enough scenes showing Superman heroics, but we got a couple to show he isn't just sitting on his ass)

The stakes for Superman weren't raised until the last minute and there was hardly any build up to it. It was all part of Lex's plan, sure, but his plan is incoherent as fuck. He has no beef with Superman but he's going out of his way to set up a brawl between Batman and Superman.

And then you throw in Doomsday at the last second because they don't know how to close this fight without both sides killing each other.

BvS was a robbery. The conflict in the title had no reason to occur and then they chickened out in the end because they ran into a wall.

Civil War may have been completely unnecessary but at least Tony and Steve aren't pals at the end of the film.
>BUT THE LETTER!
Yeah, what about it. The letter is one way. Steve says he's sorry about Tony's parents and how he kept it a secret, but he's not getting on board with the accords which still makes him a fugitive Tony has to bring in. Tony's opinion on the accords still hasn't changed and the scene with Rhodes right before that reinforced it. Nowhere does it imply that Steve is forgiven.

Doomsday could solo the entire Avengers in a couple of seconds.

>>82895245
>>82895172

We don't like the Martha thing because it's pretty sudden and forced. It's a attempt at a deep, meaningful twist that falls on its face once you realize that Superman proved Batman's point about him possibly being corrupted at some point by letting Lex Luthor manipulate him. It's the one thing that sums up what's inherently wrong with the movie.

Also why do we need to set up Stark loving his mother? It's his fucking mother.
>>
>>82896428
Except Superman never becomes corrupted. There's a wide difference between manipulation and corruption.

And Stark throughout the films has shown nothing but distain for his parents. This is the first time we even are given any hint of affection for anyone besides himself. Even the little hologram flashback does not display any affect Tony might have had.

>>82896872

You mean his father. And even in Iron Man 2 he started to see him in a new light. We have no reason to believe he hardlbored any ill will toward his mother.

>>82896345
>Doomsday could solo the entire Avengers in a couple of seconds
So it's basically "My villain dad is stronger than your villain dad"?
>>
>>82897085
throughout the films he's been characterized as a self absorbed egotist who only holds a high opinion of himself.

There was never a reason to think he cared about anyone but himself let alone a parent he never talked about and who's single appearance still shows nothing but "tolerance" at best on the part of Stark.

To turn that on its head in the final moments of the movie and base the final conflict around this moment is retarded and piss story telling.
>>
>>82897140

Well. Yeah.

Doomsday would murder Zemo.
>>
>>82897629
You're the retarded one if you need it spelled out that he cared about his mother. That's pretty universal m8

Also he definitely cared about his father post IM2
>>
>>82897744
Except it's not even hinted at. 5 movies prior that keep on repeating that Tony Stark does not give a damn about anyone but himself. To the point where all his relationships fail.

In a hologram scene of his final moments with his parents, that he states is how he wished things ended, he still is still noting but cold and uncaring toward his mom and dad.

In CW he continues to not give a shit about his Dad or care about what happened to his parents.

The man does not give a fuck about his parents until the plot needed him to attack Cap and Bucky at the end. Tony Stark is not an example to use if you want to argue some universal love for parents. The man cares about no one but himself.

>>82896273

By "Civil War" I meant the airport brawl guest starring other MCU heroes.

The base storyline and conflict are still valid. The Accords, Tony and Cap's stances on them and key characters like Bucky, Panther, Falcon and Wanda are still valid. Ant-Man, Spider-Man, Clint cameos and the air port brawl aren't necessary. That could have still been done on a smaller scale and still carried the same weight, if not more efficient they just focused on the characters that mattered

>5 movies prior that keep on repeating that Tony Stark does not give a damn about anyone but himself

So you stopped watching before he got out of the cave in Iron Man 1? You'd have to be intentionally ignorant of the facts to thing this.

> In a hologram scene of his final moments with his parents, that he states is how he wished things ended

Evwrything up until the "this is the last time you'll see us" part was how it happened originally. He wanted to change the last words he said to his father.


>In CW he continues to not give a shit about his Dad or care about what happened to his parents.

So unless he's constantly dwelling on something that happened 25 years ago he doesn't care? Come the fuck on.


Plus if you did watch past the cave scene in the first Iron Man you'd know he thought and cared about his parents' death even then.

>Zemo shows him the tape of how Lex Luthor should be actually played
>The Luthor part inside of Doomsday combust for the shame of what he has become

Actually, in BvS Luthor was one of the most entertaining elements, it's just that he wasn't Luthor. I know that it's something that has been said and written over and over, but he really was more like Joker with a rich kid background

You have Zack Snyder's western video game dev tier animation with a complete lack weight to the action vs. John Wick's fight choreographers.

There was hardly anything decent in BvS. It was all a CGI mess of darkness and awful angles that obscure the action

I apologize for the Tumblr gif. I don't have a webm on hand.
>>
>>82895632
Like I said earlier, people in these threads define "stakes' as "how many extras will die if the bad guy wins". Doomsday could conceivably kill a bunch of people, therefore the stakes are higher.

It's a shitty, edgelord teengaer metric for how "serious" something is, and thus, how good it is. Nobody died in Civil War and the audience laughed, therefore it's a silly comedy. Everyone scowls in BvS and red shirts might die, so it's mature and thought provoking.
>>
>>82896872
>Except Superman never becomes corrupted. There's a wide difference between manipulation and corruption.

Not when it leads to Superman doing something wrong. That was the point, it doesn't matter if it's manipulation or corruption. What matters is he does something bad. In this case, trying to kill Batman.

Do you think Batman would care if he was "manipulated" into killing innocent civilians as opposed to being corrupted?
>>

I suppose people would argue that it shows that Superman as Clark Kent has never fought so he doesn't know how to actually fight

>>82897903
Anon it's fine if you want to ignore any sort of humanity or compassion MCU Tony shows for anyone, but it's there in every single movie and it's obvious. The man is incapable of showing genuine emotions in front of other people, that makes him a sperg, not unfeeling.

>throughout the films he's been characterized as a self absorbed egotist who only holds a high opinion of himself.
Tony hates himself. I thought that was obvious.

>But nothing in BvS has anything to do with "adult"

Batman arc was pretty adult to me. A guy fighting with his own sense of masculinity - which he bases on his own father - and power, and feeling inadequate and lost for having that threatened and taken from him.

Superman too, when i think about it. Superman throughout the entire movie is basically recoiling himself back into a womb since the world is too complicated, demanding and scary, but the womb he is recoiling into is that of his lover, not his mother, and in the end Superman comes to realize that Lois can't act as his mom. She can't protect him from the world. HE is the one that has to protect her. He needs to grow up and take charge.

Not saying that the movie good so no need to call me a /tv/faggot or whatever. Just saying.
>>
>>82897903
One of the common threads about Tony is how easily his heart is swayed by face-to-face sob stories. Yinsen, that kid in IM3 (though they certainly played it a lot less sappy than usual), and then the mother blaming him in CW. Hell, even Spider-Man in CW has a bit of Tony being moved by Peter's story and situation. Tony's not so good with large scale societal issues, but he's always been a sucker for personal tragedy. At least once he stopped being a complete asshole.

Superman wasn't going to kill Batman.
>>
>>82895632

>BvS was one sided as fuck. The stakes were only high for exactly one party. Batman, because he was an arrogant idiot. For being the world's greatest detective he sure is a moron who can't figure out that Superman has no ill will against Earth. (There weren't enough scenes showing Superman heroics, but we got a couple to show he isn't just sitting on his ass)

Did you watch the movie?
The point isn't that Batman failed to miss that Superman was trying to protect the Earth during the Metropolis fight or had no ill against the Earth and it's people.
Batman wasn't going to kill Superman because of something Superman did. Not really.
Batman felt that he failed as a "hero" and his father's son. He felt that the entire vigilantism concept was pointless. That there was no winning. That in the end you end up as the very thing that you're fighting to stop.
That's what drove him to kill Superman. Because if he a mere human only managed to ruin people's lives in his pursuit, what would happen if Superman one day realized the truth also? The world would be fucked.
Batman was basically trying to kill his own inadequacy and kill himself in the process. He was grasping at anything to feel as if he did something that mattered.

Batman was basically a macho guy trying to assert his own virility by punching a stranger that made him doubt his manhood.
>>
>>82903992
There's also the fact that he got super mad and flew around the world to beat up terrorists after seeing a news report about people suffering there. The fact that it was Yinsin's home town probably factored into that as well.
>>
>>82904000

And that is my overall problem with BvS.

The conflict, at its heart, is dumb as all hell. Both sides had no real reason to fight.
>>
>>82905806

It's not dumb at all. It's pretty logical when you consider how someone like Batman would feel after 20 years of fighting without a real change.

You just don't like it because something in it displeases you in how you view Batman.

In the first movie, Bucky and Steve didn't get to stick together because they were buddies, but because he was Captain America and Bucky was a very good soldier.
Bucky became a good soldier because he knew Steve before he was Cap, and felt like he had to keep up. That isn't something that's explicitly stated, but it's an easy conclusion to draw, and explains why Hydra would want to use him as a weapon.
Howard Stark was involved with developing tech for the military and Cap specifically, and is portrayed as being one of the world's top scientists at the time, so it makes some sense that he'd be the one working on a new super soldier serum.

It's more of a causal thing than a coincidence.

CW, They both had believable reasons to fight each other. The previous movies have been building up to a violent confrontation and it paid off in the final fight imo.

Solo Batman fight scenes were really good in BvS, but I got nothing out of the final over-the-top climax fight. Just a bunch of CGI, big explosions and blaring music. The final fight between Iron Man and Cap was much more intense.

Both were kind of lackluster. Superman 'dying' made me buttmad. It was cheap as hell. CW could have ended on a much stronger note than Cap's letter.

>higher stakes
BVS. Civil War was just "Gotta save muh Bucky!" You don't even need the accords. You just need them disagreeing over how to handle Bucky.

>a more believable feud
BVS. Mostly because I think Tony siding with the Government felt really forced given all of his past actions and developments within the universe itself.

I also believe Superman and Batman's first meeting should always be about their ideological differences. The fact that the MCU Avengers never really felt like friends kind of kills any interest I had in seeing their relationships dissolve too.

I will say however that BVS loses points because Batman not having his one rule in a movie about him being against the loss of life Superman caused is pretty retarded.

>better action
Civil War.

>a more satisfying conclusion
Neither. Superman "dying" doesn't really feel right and Snyder not really grasping the characters themselves kind of makes everything feel muddled. Conversly I think the fact that Bucky was brainwashed to do things weakens the drama when it comes to him killing the Starks.

>more faithful to source material
Character-wise Civil War but I can't deny that BVS has some clear cut faithful homages either and pulls heavily from the source material. What Snyder botches is character. He does not understand the characters he's using at all.
>>
>>82884244
>Higher stakes

Batman v Superman, even if it's contrived and out of nowhere, I'm fairly certain Doomsday would fuck the entire planet up

>More believable fued

Civil War, as it's an actual ideological clash brought upon years of festering, personal drama and loyalty being tested

>Better action

It's a wash. The cinematography and superior special effects in Batman v Superman as opposed to the fan service and smaller scale conflicts in Civil War is more preferential between people, but ultimately both are suitable for their respective films

>A more satisfying conclusion

Civil War, since it's resolved but not exactly happy, which is better than just building up for more sequels in a single film

>more faithful to the source material

Neither, both are terrible adaptions of the story arcs they barrow from, which is a flaw for Batman v Superman but a saving grace for Civil War where adapting the entire Civil War story would be incredibly moronic.

My opinion is fact, do not disagree with me plebs.

>Batman v Superman, even if it's contrived and out of nowhere, I'm fairly certain Doomsday would fuck the entire planet up
That is true, but I think the question should have been what conflict made the viewers feel more invested.
Stakes are meaningless when it comes to quality.

I would have loved if Civil War cut to the credits shortly after Cap drops his shield and the camera zooms out of Tony on the ground.

The after credits scene should be Steve rescuing his buddies.

Civil War. BvS adapted 4 to 5 good comic books into a bad movie, while civil war turned a bad comic into a Great movie.

Again Civil War. BvS has less than subtle youtube trailers. In contrast the mystery of Wakanda lends to BP's character. Hell, I hope we get a Thunderbolts movie. Zemo looks badass
