caulfield12 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 The Black Panther "reprieve" at the end was more interesting in terms of his character development than the Iron Man/Cap detente. You just knew it was coming...felt more like a tease after they inserted the "i'll be there when you need me" note. Nobody has mentioned the Emily Van Camp/Captain America romance...is there a precedent for that in the comics? Someone said she might be joining the cast of Agents of SHIELD.

caulfield12 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Just glad to get rid of Sally Field. For my money, I miss Cliff Robertson from the Tobey Maguire Spidey movies. James Franco, not so much. Edited May 10, 2016 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 QUOTE (lostfan @ May 10, 2016 -> 09:01 AM) I think the question I'm trying to ask is actually "why does everyone still think Peter Parker is 16 years old" Likely due to Bendis' popular Ultimate Spider-Man run. Thank goodness the MCU runs on a fixed timeline, so we'll only get one in HS movie. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 10, 2016 -> 09:03 AM) I am kind of disappointed that they dropped the Extremis storyline. he could fix Rhodey right now This is why you don't introduce magical fix-all macguffins.

That's exactly what T'Challa would've done in the comics - he went into it a little too hot, because he was a new leader and jumped to a conclusion a little too soon, but once he got the whole story, he decided to take a more appropriate action and showed mercy. Zemo would still need to face justice, but not be executed like T'Challa originally wanted to do. Also, yes, Sharon Carter is Cap's main romantic interest.

And those other winter soldiers were clearly unstable. It's like how it worked for Banner, technically. No one's ever gotten the perfect serum + vita rays combo since Cap.

I mean, we can go back and forth all day but in the end you know that there are many magical fix-all mcguffins within the MCU. Sometimes serums, sometimes gems, sometimes hereditary, sometimes tiny robots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Every time they've tried similar experiments to reproduce the formula it's been a disaster. Nuke was unstable. They experiment on a bunch of black soldiers in the 1930s to test the serum (something Cap did not discover until decades later) and almost all of them died except Isaiah Bradley.

Kyyle23 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 So on Agents of SHIELD they discussed the Sokovia Accords last night, as well as Cap and Stark. So it seems like they still may look SHIELD back into the MCU even though they have said they arent planning on doing that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I thought all the characters in Civil War were great. I think it really made the movie. Chris Evans at Captain America is the best adaption of a comic book hero that we have seen. Except Spider-Man. I thought he was annoying and that putting him in the movie just felt like an advertisement. Also feels like he is getting younger every movie. Can't wait for the 7 year old wise cracking Spider-Kid.

lostfan Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 My best guess is that Michael B. Jordan will be Erik Killmonger (rumor had that he was cast as a villain). Some dudes I know were arguing in a Facebook group that he wasn't big enough to be Killmonger, I had to remind them that comic book characters aren't real.

knightni Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Watched Deadpool last night. Hard to really nail it down on whether I liked it or not. It was entertaining, but didn't really feel like a Marvel film. I'm not sorry that I watched it, but I probably wouldn't re-watch it.
