But Scarlet Witch's mistake mirrored almost exactly what happened in the comic Civil War: a misappropriation of superpower that resulted in the loss of human life. It was the tipping point for both scenarios holding superheroes accountable for their actions.

I think when they re-re-reboot ol' webhead, Aunt May—who grows increasingly younger each time— will be younger than him, offering a whole new dynamic.

But as someone else said succinctly in the comments here, how would you react if you were two feet from the individual you just found out was responsible for brutally killing your parents? Would you sit down and offer him a cup of tea and talk it out?

Remember though, Tony is called out yet again about his weapons manufacturing before superheroing, and admits fully to his dark past. Tony's reaction to Zemo's endgame is only natural (though not justified) to exact vengeance on Bucky in that moment.

I would say 3 was more terrifying that Steve looked like he was going to behead Tony with the edge of the shield (hence Stark throwing his arms up over his face)—it's been embedded in me that Tony's chest is no longer his weak spot—it's his mind now.

Actually though, is it really so bad that it HAS been established in previous films? That's what you call a "character trait", not "out of character".

In case you've forgotten, Steve, Sam, Natasha, Rhodey, Hawkeye and Bucky are all military soldiers or spies. Expecting them to operate as heroes without loss of life is only for the comic books. The films have well-established that they function in a world of terrorists, not just super villains. Sam's last mission…

Did you forget how he got winged by his very first run-in with Red Skull's infiltrator, or getting plugged multiple times by Bucky in Winter Soldier's climax? The guy bleeds just as human as anyone else. He's not bulletproof with thick skin—he can just hit harder, jump higher and run faster than the average human. His…

Yeah, it's pretty awesome how they hang a lantern on the returnability of the shield.

Seriously, I thought they brought in Wes Anderson for the establishing shots.
I'd much rather they'd stuck to a nice technical font like they'd done for Winter Soldier, maybe even thrown in some latitude/longitude data.

Shame that storyline wrapped up pretty succinctly. He also blamed the wrong guy really though entirely for his problems: Steve installed two of the chips, but Sam installed one, and kept him distracted while the helicarrier crashed into the Triskelion. Still, great way to turn the lynchpin of how the comic Civil War…

I think Natasha had the biggest conflict on the team—she understood both sides and walked a really fine line, trying to pull everyone back together. And she was right—she didn't lie about finding Steve and Company, she just wasn't going to capture him.

On the contrary, I felt the most accurate word for the film was "family"—between friends, between teammates, history, loyalty, and especially loss of it. There was a LOT of personal motives tied up involving parents, and it was done remarkably well sending each character's actions in motion.

You need to see the film. You're way off over what the conflict's about, and Bucky's "role". There's no "damsel"ing whatsoever.

He kind of sounds like Tobey with the mask on, but the dialogue really captures the snark of Spidey plus the exuberance of him getting to play in the big leagues.

The camerawork was vastly different. Far more close on action scenes, particularly running around Africa. In fact, had I been sitting near the front of the theater, I'd have gotten carsick from the shaky-cam and close-ups.

What was wrong with his WW2 or SHIELD getup? In fact, I'd go so far to say only the original Avengers costume was way off.

And yet, you do because you feel it'll hurt the cinematic universe. Can't have it both ways, l33t.

But by all means, axe DaisySkye. Good god, she is a bore and the show needs to stop putting attention on her.

The hell are you on about, "plot holes"? If anything it opens up possibilities for all of Marvel's TV shows that Peggy or others in her time period set into motion. The dark matter in SHIELD's season 1 birthed later in Carter this season, and will be at play in Dr. Strange.
