Should we just turn this thread into the spoiler thread? Can we get a mod to add spoilers to the title please?

Last minute change of plans, seeing a matinée that starts in 40 minutes. These recliner seats at Landmark are amazing. Sitting in a traditional movie theater after this is going to feel like punishment.

That was pretty great. Wasn't maybe quite as good as Winter Soldier but still it's neat how the Captain America movies are so much better than the Avengers ones.

Marvel Cinematic Universe puts up another good one. This is really an Avengers movie minus Thor and the Hulk.
Really glad they didn't have to fight the Russian super soldiers at the end. Would have been pretty anti-climatic after the brawl with developed super heroes at the airport.
Kind of laughed at the whole prison the government built. Multi billion dollar facility that in the end held probably the 3 of the easiest super heroes to contain. Antman and Falcon are just normal humans without their tech. Hawkeye is just a guy with really good aim.
Looking forward to Spiderman: Homecoming next year. Spiderman in the MCU should be great if this movie is any indication.

Loved this movie. Like many others, it amazes me that the Captain America series continues to be the best of the MCU. I especially enjoyed the humour in this movie. It seems so natural, unlike BVS where it seemed so forced. I didn't think I would like a teenage Spider-man, but Tom Holland was great. Marisa Tomei is like a fine wine. I'm really looking forward to the stand-alone Spidey flick. Same goes for Black Panther. I'm not familiar at all with the comic books, but I'm excited for his movie as well. Very surprised how the Russo brothers can turn out such a great movie with all the characters they have to juggle.

The humour was nicely placed within the movie. The only joke that hit in BvS was, "Love the shoes!", and I'm sure that was an adlib.
Agent 13 was also nicely handled. The reveal of her ancestry was seamless which lead to some nice moments. The Russo brothers always seem to allow the smaller characters to be more than simply 'stock'.

It was great. Not as good as Winter Soldier in terms of a "Captain America" movie but it was a far better Avengers movie than Age of Ultron.
Marvel continues to deliver films with great character interaction. The comedy elements were very well done. Paul Rudd had some great scenes/lines. Black Panther was bad ass and I thought they gave us a great Spider-Man.

I don't know what you were seeing, but this thread was labeled spoilers thread when I originally posted.

I was expecting that fight, and thinking that 5 against 2 were pretty bad odds. Then Iron Man showed up and I was like "OK, they might stand a fighting chance." And then when Black Panther was skulking around, I thought we were in for a pretty decent brawl. I didn't see the twist coming, so that was a nice surprise to me.

Loved it. Just a good as the Winter Soldier and better than the Avengers movies. Spider-man and Black Panther were done perfectly.
Best parts:
-Anything with Spidey
-Falcon and Bucky in the VW
-Giant Man!
Worst Parts:
-Nothing. Yeah there were some plot holes but that would be nitpicking

I really liked it. It had a good mix of pretty much everything I wanted to see. That was one of the most spot-on portrayals of Spider-Man I think I've ever seen as well. His mix of enthusiasm and inexperience were fantastic.

Awesome movie! Longer review when I get the chance. Every character was great.
Quick random musings
Black Panther is badass, and Boseman is a great actor. But I do see potential for a boring character.
As far as the match of "recruits" goes. Spider-man was awesome, but Antman was just as awesome.
Team Cap all the way. But I get Team Iron Man. I read some reviews saying that it was a departure of character for Captain America. I didn't see that at all. He was on point.
It's funny how you don't really care about how weak the villain was and how his plan was kind of absurd because everything else was so great.
Only criticism is that it was pretty safe. Nobody died, even those that got hurt will probably be okay and the rift was already there between Cap and Iron Man, this deepened it. But not beyond repair. That last scene was a safety scene. If they had of left it at the Arctic base, the sentiment would have been different.

Daredevil's the man without fear. He's taking it back. T'Challa.

Who are the top three? Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and Hank Pym?
