So the Captain America: Civil War trailer just dropped and man it was awesome... as you may expect everyone is now on the hype train.
But in all seriousness, there is one thing that's itching me a bit. In the trailer we see Tony Stark saying things like: "Sometimes i just want to punch you in your perfect teeth". When cap tells him that Bucky is his friend, Tony, feeling insulted, answers: "So was I". During the entire trailer, we see Tony angry at captain america as if he wanted to fight him, as if it was personal. Marvel is totally establishing him as the villain of the movie.
The Civil War story is not about that, it's not personal, it's about defending what you think it's right, it's about freedom versus security. It's a dilema. In the comic, it's not hero versus villain because they are both right. One defends the fact that superheroes must work for the government and be registered so they can be responsable for their acts and for the possible casualties. The other defends freedom and the fact that you can't make someone work for the government just because that someone is gifted. It's a dilema. Do you think iron man felt good when Goliath died in the comics? Do you think that 24 hours before the aproval of the law, he felt good going door to door telling about the registration act to all of the superheroes? How do you think he felt when Cap died? or when Thor returned and found out what had happened? Or when Aunt May was shot because spiderman had revealed his identity because of him.
Iron man didn't want to punch Cap in his perfect teeth...
He just does what has to be done. Iron Man is brain, Cap is heart.
It's just that this movie has so much potential to separate itself from the Marvel formula in a big way: I didn't want this movie to have a villain. I wanted it to make the audience think about it. Who was right? But after all, it's a Captain America movie, not an avengers movie, so i guess Iron Man will be a bad guy.
But the trailer is still awesome and i am super hyped. I understand that the movies are not like the comics, it's totally fine (Please don't get me wrong). I am very much looking forward to this. So that was my take, what do you think about what i've just said? Please hit the like button if you liked it. Let me hear you thoughts on it. I am BaronZemo.
