Captain America: Civil War. (News/Discussion/Spoilers)

[Teddybrown]

Thoughts on this? Will it work in the movies?

Civil War

Im With Deadpool

They've barely touched on non-super soldier super powers yet, much less secret identities. Even without the big guns of mutants and Spiderman, I just don't see there being enough powered people and time to establish what they need to do a good Civil War storyline.?

[Crazedwraith]

No it won't. It didn't work as a comic. Why does Marvel keep pushing that storyline? They wrecked the 2nd Ultimate Alliance game with it as well.

They only have so many 'superheroes' and they're all in the Avengers. They need a lot more characters to do it properly and they'll have the cast no-name actors in the role to get them all in a single film.

Maybe its like Age Of Ultron? They've stolen the title not used the actual plot? *crosses fingers*

Keep in mind that it won't exactly be the civil war story line as we know it and given the events of the film series I think it makes perfect sense. Between SHIELD now being considered outlaws and Hydra taking an interest in super powered humans then I think it's fair to say that the government would put restrictions on such things. We already know that Tony became a lot more paranoid after the Avengers as we saw in Iron Man 3, and Cap is considered a fugitive. Not only that, but he is trying to hunt down and save an old friend who is considered an enemy soldier.

Add all these events together and I can imagine Iron Man and Cap coming to blows.... god knows they didn't get along very well to start with anyway.

Doesn't that in and of itself almost defeat the whole purpose of the Civil War storyline? I thought the point of the tragedy in the comics is that they were old friends who became enemies. Not guys who didn't really get along well who became enemies.

Honestly from what I know of the story in the comics it sounds like a truly terrible idea. It worked a little better in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, but even then I don't think it will translate well to the films. In the game there might have even been a little bit of mockery of how poorly it was executed in the original format.

Rumour Alert! Daniel Bruhl's character to be a Silver Age villain?

Maybe we ought to just ask for this to be the official Cap 3 thread?

[Teddybrown]

Good idea, Ill request it!

[garhkal]

Since the MCU is not in the same 'reality' it seems as mutants, i also don't see a lot of 'superhumans' that would qualify.. Though in the early parts of S1 of Agents of shield, didn't Coulson mention that they tracked kinetics??

[garhkal]

Nice.. He impressed me with the role of Bilbo in the hobbit films.

[Gen. Chris]

Good god. Captain America 3 just turned into Avengers 2.5 with the announcement of the whole cast of characters.

Spoiler:

There's nothing here, just messing with Teddy

[Teddybrown]

Thanks for the warning! I saw part of the news on IMDB earlier and managed to avoid major spoilers. I can guess how the film ends as I know what the Civil War comic is about, I just dont want the actual film to be spoiled.

Hence why Im avoiding Agents of SHIELD for the moment as well. Hoping to see AoU soon though.
