    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    I am disappointed in the Captian America: Civil War movie

    How the fuck they gonna do that shit as one film? And because of timeline you know the major event from civil war is not going to happen.

    It's not going to be anything like the event, especially with everyone's identity being known. SHRA would be pointless. They'll make do with what they have. This looks like it will be less about freedom + justice and more about friendship.
    The entire thing seems ridiculous. They've all had government oversight. Until you know, they and everyone realized the agency in charge of them was dirty as fuck. Who the fuck is mad that they are out there not killing anyone and saving lives? The Bucky shit can be solved with one conversation.

    lol for sure.

    I don't read comic books, but I love keeping tabs on what is going on in the universe. Civil War sounded like it would be a crazy good arc. Why they didn't finish off the Infinity War and THEN do this is beyond me. They turned it into an after thought.

    I am sure the fight scenes will still be good, but I know I am going to be disappointed that this was done all wrong.

    From the moment Civil War was announced every single knowledgeable comic fan resigned themselves to the movie being as we see in previews.

    The licensing buttfuckery prevents Marvel from using more than a handful of the main characters in the CW story. There was literally no way it could happen. This isn't a shock or a surprise at all. Nor will FOX ever stop dicking around enough for CW to ever be possible. See: the abortion of cinema that was the recent FF and they almost immediately go "SEQUEL IN THE WORKS LOL".

    The sad thing is that all that licensing shit we're never going to see a proper House of M, Onslaught, Secret Invasion, Annihilation, etc. Basically every major story arc is either outright off limits or will be severely handicapped because of licensing issues.

    No fantastic four. No X-men (Cable). I guess they have Spider-man, though I can't imagine what kind of impact he would have since he hasn't been a figure in the universe since its inception.

    They didn't pick up Spiderman until like a year or so after the movie was announced iirc. I'm not sure script was set or not at that point but yeah he has zero establishment in the universe.

    Even if there were no marvel signing issues, it still doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

    Really feels like they wanted another cap movie as a filler, and said fuck it let's have them have a hissy fit for a movie.

    If there were no signing issues they would be doing real civil war and X-men / FF would be in the IG saga...the signing issues are the entire point, which I don't think you're getting.

    It is another cap movie. They're calling it Civil War because 99.9% of the people who will pay to see it wont have any idea one way or another. Should it not be called CW? Whatever, it doesn't matter.

    It's not like this movie is the reason we cant have a real CW. We cant have a real CW because signing issues.

    Tl;dr you're having issues with it being called CW because you tangentially know of the universe. You are not having issues with some of the biggest players in the IG saga not being present because you dont know about it. Be more than tangentially involved or stop giving a shit.

    Well then why arent you mad at the whole MCU then if that isnt the case? Why just cap? The IG saga as it is being presented is almost as far from canon as CW. Why bother at all?

    Also here's your quote. You are upset at CW being done all wrong but you aren't upset at IG.

    Because the CW arc is so much more interesting to me.

    IG still didn't get all the major players in it yet is getting a 10+ movie treatment (if you include all the setups in the various marvel films), CW gets a one movie treatment. Yes, I would have loved if both arcs had no licensing issues, but they at least devoted a lot of time to IG to make it work as best they can.

    I am also not asking that CW get an exact representation either. I am asking that it would have gotten developed a lot better.

    Well you are welcome to be disappointed that something that cannot possibly happen isn't happening. That certainly is your prerogative.

    Correction, I'll say two since at least Avengers2 has a tiny bit of a setup.
