Aunt May keeps getting younger and younger lol
Pretty soon, May won't even be his aunt....she'll be his damn girlfriend lol
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. I've seen it like 6 times already. I can't get enough. It perfectly wraps up all the movies from the past 8 years, and at the same time, is the beginning of Phase 3 for Marvel. This film was perfectly made. They could've made this a reuglar movie without the super hero stuff, and it would STILL be good. I didn't think they would top Winter Soldier like this lol
I could go on and on and on about this movie...

There was pages and pages of discussion for Batman Vs Superman but so far there's been little said about this year's other superhero slugfest. What did you guys think of the movie? I really liked it. More than I thought I would. I've liked most of the MCU movies up to this point but with the Winter Soldier and now Civil War, I feel that Marvel have moved on from making good superhero movies to very good movies. Robert Downey Jr gives his best performance as Tony Stark/Iron Man yet, the movie manages to feature most of the Avengers and brings new characters Spider-Man and Black Panther into it and it still doesn't feel overstuffed, and Captain America.... Ahh.. Captain America.....

I really liked it I have all marvel films on blu-ray....and your right winter soldier and civil war are above the rest

I always thought it was strange how in the Tobey Maguire movies his aunt and uncle were old enough to be his grandparents. Uncle Ben is supposed to be his father's brother, right? If Peter is only 15 or 16, why is his uncle so old. Was his father of a similar age? Were Peter's parents in their late 50's when he was born? Even Martin Sheen looked too old in Amazing Spider-Man. I think Marisa Tomei is good casting. Although I would say that

It was the same in the comics.

Well today people are having children later on in life so it might not be that un common. I too have Aunts and Uncle's on my mom side that are old enough to be my grandparents.

I'd take Marisa Tomei over Rosemary Harris any day

Don't get me wrong I like Marisa Tomei but Rosemary Harris is better for the role

I like how they brought back William Hurt's 'General(Secretary of State) Ross' character from The Incredible Hulk. I think folks forget that movie's part of the MCU.

Speaking of the Hulk, he'll appear in Thor: Ragnarok. Rumor is we'll see a more intelligent Hulk.

I liked the incredible Hulk movie. It wasn't great but it was enjoyable enough. I'd like to see Mark Ruffalo get his own movie but Ragnarok is about as close he'll get. I think pairing him with Thor could be interesting. What will the people of Asgard make of the Hulk? They also said that 80% of the movie is set in "the cosmos". Not necessarily all on Asgard, so I wonder if they'll have a link to Guardians of the Galaxy in it. Star Lord is confirmed for the next Avengers movie so I think it would be a good opportunity to introduce him to some of the Avengers.

I wish things had worked out between Edward Norton & the producers. His portrayal of Banner is light-years ahead of Ruffalo's. And Norton's Hulk is fucking monstrous.

Wow, that actress looks sexy.

Sexy is not the first word I think of when I think of Peter Parker´s Aunt May.

I wonder why they chose such a young actress.

Probably as a possible love interest for Tony Stark. Downey will be in Spider-man/Homecoming.

Chadwick Boseman signed a five-picture deal with Marvel - nice! Now they need to work on Luke Cage.

In other geek news, the Godzilla/Kong cinematic universe is in full swing:

Kong - Skull Island (2017)

Godzilla 2 (2019)

Godzilla vs Kong (2020)

Gareth Edwards backed out of directing Godzilla 2 to work on other projects - that sucks.

Loved it. i like it when they go not over the top like trashing whole cities, but keep it small. There is big action, but you can follow it.

Like the story too, it is little more of an intelligent story in stead of the bad vs good guy.

for me the strongest character is the winter soldier, very well done.

Spiderman was cool, but didn't like the introduction of him.

It's more of an avengers movie, isn't it?

Black Panther isn't due until 2017. I can't wait. Doctor Strange

is due in November. You have another Thor due in 2017.

You have 2 new Avengers coming out in 2018 and 2019.

Marvel is a motherfucking cash cow now. Thor is my shit though.

On the DC side you have Wonder Woman due in 2017 as well

as Flash and Aqua Man. I hope Aqua Man makes a big splash.

In 2019 finally we get Shazam!

I would've been OK with Marisa as Aunt May if she would have dyed her hair silver fox grey at least.

Real talk, Stevie should've told Tony a few years earlier about brainwashed pawn Bucky/Winter Soldier murdering Tony's parents back in the early 1990's.

But all of that aside, CA:CW was still a very good story. I ranked it a step under CA:TWS.

I love that "spiderman" is played by a person of the right age and awkwardness.
