Right, but wasn't it Snyder who kept adding superheros to it? I thought Goyer's original story was BvS only. At any rate, I hope Civil War stomps on BvS only to wake up WB and have them change shit up for the better. WB has the property to make their stuff every bit as good as Marvels, but they don't know how to approach it. They want the victory without the work. Something Marvel has already put in almost a decade and 13 movies into.

After Goyers comments about She-Hulk and Martain Manhunter I'm surprised that hes hired on to write anything to do with superheroes. Hes trash as far as I'm concerned.

I haven't watched anything past the Spider-man reveal trailer and I'm not going to. Want to go in as spoiler-free as possible. Can't wait. The Winter Soldier has moved up to just below the first Avengers as my favorite Marvel movie and this one just might top them all.

He was on a podcast called Scriptnotes (ep 144) and had this to say :
Then he asks the audience whos heard of the Martian Manhunter and after some applause asks how many of those people have been laid before.
Dudes a scumbag who shits on the fans.
I have a theory about She-Hulk. Which was created by a man, right? And at the time in particular I think 95% of comic book readers were men and certainly almost all of the comic book writers were men. So the Hulk was this classic male power fantasy. It’s like, most of the people reading comic books were these people like me who were just these little kids getting the shit kicked out of them every day… And so then they created She-Huk, right? Who was still smart… I think She-Hulk is the chick that you could fuck if you were Hulk, you know what I’m saying? … She-Hulk was the extension of the male power fantasy. So it’s like if I’m going to be this geek who becomes the Hulk then let’s create a giant green porn star that only the Hulk could fuck.
“Well, he hasn’t been rebooted but he’s a mainstay in the Justice League. He can’t be fucking called the Martian Manhunter because that’s goofy. He can be called Manhunter… The whole deal with Martian Manhunter is he’s an alien living amongst us… So he comes down to Earth and decides, unlike Superman who already exists in the world now, that he’s just going to be a homicide detective… So instead of using super-powers and mind-reading and like, oh, I could figure out if the President’s lying or whatever, he just decides to disguise himself as a human homicide detective. Dare to dream!”

Went to the fan screening tonight - was EPIC. All the best elements of Winter Soldier crossed with Avengers - trailers barely scratch the surface and both of the new MCU characters get a nice amount of screen time, don't feel tacked on and are much more than just glorified cameos. Marvel casting continues to be spot on as both Boseman and Holland are GREAT. RDJ gets to act his ass off in the last reel, doing more with just a look than he did in all of Iron Man 2. Awesome to see a trilogy where each film is better than the last. Also manages to make AoU seem more significant in hindsight as well. About 30 minutes that takes place at an airport is probably the most fun we've had in any MCU flick and should be a standout by summer's end. Going to make some serious bank - guaranteed. 5/5

While there have been three Cap films, I would never call this a trilogy, given how much of the story is spread across other movies.

We don't know where this exactly takes place in the narrative. It's early but only the guys that have seen it here can say where exactly it hits. Maybe before the Ross meeting. Maybe after.

What Snake said.
As far as I heard Winter Solder is viewed as a terrorist.

On topic, a friend of mine saw this last night and he said it's good, not great. Then again he's very particular about superhero characters in movies being "comic-book accurate" and he didn't like Zemo's and Crossbones' "look". And he also called MOS and BvS Superman comic book accurate so we fundamentally disagree on that. haha

So in other words... he just wants he likes or has liked in imagery or plot compared to an adaptation that is possibly a quality thing?
Shit taste kind of guy?
Also.. comic book accurate Cavill Superman? Fuck him. The character, the suited one, hasn't even reached to a general definition of the character cuz of how shitty they write him.

(Fun fact: The second-unit directors of Civil War are Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, the directors of John Wick.)

Please let there be a John Wick cameo. Just a depressed Keanu sitting on a chair in the background during one of the action scenes.

They've long been second-unit directors and stunt coordinators on a whole variety of films, including lots of big-time action movies. That's their day job .

Yeah. Chad Stahelski was also the stunt guy for Reeves in the Matrix films.
That guy has had an awesome resume.

Hrmm... this one spoils it a bit if you don't know how they were going w/ a certain character and what they can do.
