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

[Flyboy]

Not impressed.

I've really enjoyed MCU, and have properly fanboyed out about it, ensuring I watch everything in the correct order - with all of the films and the TV series.

I was expecting so much more from this. As my partner described it... it wasn't a civil war, it was a disagreement with fisty-cuffs.

Normally I'm a huge Captain America supporter, I think he's all kinds of heroic and noble. Yet here... christ he was SO obviously wrong. A self authorising task force is just all kinds of inappropriate, they DO need to be held accountable for their actions. The Avengers began as a tool of the establishment, and that's what it should remain. A private enterprise is entirely vigilantism, which though I can condone at a local level (Daredevil), is distinctly not appropriate when it pertains to infringements of sovereignty and international affairs. Steve was being emotional and unobjective.

I loved how the movie set up the conflict. I knew exactly why the Sokovia Accords were created, I could appreciate why Cap chose his side and why Tony chose his. I liked how both sides could make a reasonable case for themselves. But once the big battle began, the movie almost seemed to side step the actual issue it brought up. Most of the war wasn't actually about the principles behind registering. Cap's team was going after the actual culprits behind the bombing and Iron Man's team was just there to stop them. So what narrative reason does the audience have to root for them besides coolness factor? And the final battle occurred only because Tony was emotional and not thinking clearly. I didn't like how they set up a morally ambiguous scenario and then didn't fully commit.

Ok...well...I finally got my tickets to see Captain America: Civil War! In 2 hrs and 10 minutes...I will be munching on a bison burger at my favorite theater and watching the coming attractions. I truly hope that this movie lives up to the hype. I really enjoyed the other Captain America movies.

Yes, the theater serves bison burgers. It is a dine-in theater.

Well...I enjoyed the flick! I felt the movie was well constructed...and easy to follow.

Even though this is not part of the movie...what do you guys think of the latest Captain America revelation? That he is...

Spoiler:

part of Hydra!

Not according to a Time Magazine article. It starts out with, "Sure, he wears red white and blue on the outside, but on the inside? It turns out Steve Rogers, a.k.a. Captain America, supports the evil, former Nazi organization, Hydra."

Don't count out the story line yet. You don't know where they are going with this.
