This movie was awesome and definitely one of the GOAT comic book movies I've ever seen. It had heart, it had color, it had joy, it had a soul. But it also had a very serious and thought provoking plot complete with themes that viewers can appreciate and understand easily and it still did a fantastic job of keeping in character with everybody.

I can't wait to see it again.

This Spider Man has tons of potential. He was cracking a lot of jokes left and right and acting like Spidey really would. The original spidey with Tobey Maguire cracked like maybe one joke throughout the entire trilogy and he was serious in those movies. This one is going to really nail the character. I also loved the a hot aunt may as that's a refreshing take from the usual old lady aunt may.

While Iron Man is pretty cool to watch, Cap is easily my favorite Avenger of them all and he is what a leader is supposed to be and what men is supposed to be like. He reminds me so much of what Superman is supposed to be like over in the DC universe.

The airport fight scene was fun to watch but that last fight scene was what really hit home to me as there was an emotional component to it and you could really feel the rage and desperation coming out of all three of them and it was tough to watch.

Such a satisfying movie to watch.

This guy nails it!

Best Marvel movie yet!!!

After it was over, I felt like head butting women, punting puppies, running through a fricking brick wall, something... It is balls to the wall!!

Just perfect!

Black panther was awesome! Had great comedic moments throughout.

I'll just put it like this, there was ghetto trash sitting behind me commenting about every scene, and I didn't give a shite. That's how great this movie was!

tons of potential and I feel like this iteration has a chance to be the best. the maguire turn got way too fricking emo, while the garfield version seemed too fricking smug.

this is peter parker as he should be..a kid with a smokin aunt

I think holland nails the character much better than the previous guys.

What makes Spiderman work in the comics is, at least in part, that he jokes his way through situations where he's clearly scared. He's a joker right up until the point where he isn't and that point is when shite gets real.

All that aside, the Subway train scene in SM2 is a pretty perfect encapsulation of Spiderman as a hero: someone, who is capable of feats up there with just about anyone in the Marvel universe put who pulls his punches 99% of the time and jokes around while doing it. That 1% though (stopping the train) that's special and it's made even more special by contrast with the effortlessness with which he does normal hero stuff.

Just saw it.

Had low expectations because O really thought they were going to try to do too much and with that many characters it would feel disjointed with a lot of action and no plot. Basically I was afraid it would be a transformers movie.

Thank goodness I was wrong. They nailed it. I thought it equaled Winter Soldier.


I guess if I want to nit pick...Zemo was kind of a weak villain and could have been better developed, but I get that he was basically just the MacGuffin used to get to the main conflict within the Avengers.

I havent read the whole thread, but I watched it last night and thought it was awesome. It makes me even more mad at zack synder and that abortion that was BVS after watching this movie. I am not a comic book reader so I have a couple of questions for the comic book readers in this thread.

1. Does Captain America age? I know he was asleep for all those years but I didnt know if it was because of that or the serum made him ageless.

2. Does this civil war timeline actually occur in the comics or is this a made up story line for the movie? The same with Batman V Superman. Do they actually fight each other in the comics?
