both were okay. i didn't like civil war that much. it was so full of stuff that didn't matter.

the black panther parts were so annoying- like everybody talks the character up but he was so lame. like he's a king, okay- but he was totally willing to murder an innocent man (Bucky) over vengeance with no evidence?

The bombing has news casted a picture of Bucky leaving the vehicle that had the bomb in it. Even though it was staged, it was enough information based on Bucky's other "warrants" as a fugitive, to rely on the info as accurate.

not exactly something a good king would do, and i had a hard time believing his father, based on what we saw, would've raised his son to act that way. his dad wanted peace and was a good man. it made me see Black Panther like he was a villain.

It was vengence. No different than what Tony Stark wanted. Also, the Black Panther is a protector of Wakanda and it's citizens. King included.

plus even though he had a vibranium suit, it bothered me that he was tanking machine gun bullets at one point...like okay they won't puncture the suit, but shouldn't he still have like a ton of broken bones and internal bleeding?

Vibranium also reduces impact. Watch Thor take his hammer and hit Cap's shield. Everything else is affected around the shield.

idk- that just crossed my personal line of belief and sucked me out of the movie.
Paul Rudd was great though. he should've been a bigger part of the movie. its refreshing seeing a hero who isn't overly dour for no reason whatsoever.

Glad they showed that he could be "Goliath" (original name in Avengers) as well as Antman. I also thought Spiderman was great.

BvS wasn't the best mostly because of the dream sequences and also Batman killing people in the Batmobile scene...like he was straight up murdering those guys. plus the movie was paced so weird, like it should've been another 30 mins longer at least, or 30 mins shorter.

Unless you're a DC follower, a lot of the movie skimmed on how Justice League was formed.

I loved Jesse Eisenberg in it. he was the first Lex who wasn't some comical bumbler involved in a real estate scheme. plus that scene with the guy in the wheelchair was so dark and really seemed like something the Lex of the comics would've done.

Didn't like him at all. More like a Riddler character than Lex. He laughed more goofily than Lex in the comics ever would.

i enjoyed both of them okay but probably won't bother to rewatch them.
I'm really looking forward to Suicide Squad the most. I was sold from that one scene where Jai Courtney sips his beer while everybody is shooting the place up.

Easily liked Civil War much better (except the ending) than Batman vs Superman.

No, because he is enhanced. The vibranium in the suit would help, but when the meteorite containing the vibranium fell to earth, the radiation caused an impact on the flora and fauna, which is where the whole heart-shaped herb comes into play. The juices give him enhanced abilities like that of the super soldiers as far as speed, strength, and healing.

All good points so far. I liked both movies however critics hyped one movie but hated the other; but it was basically the same basic plot. Superheros fighting over who if anyone should control them (wasn't conveyed in the batman movie so clearly but if you knew the comics thats what it was about). As far as the Captain America movie there were times when I would stop myself like wait is this Avengers...no wait this is Captain America:Civil War. The scene in the middle where to two teams face off was like a fireworks show finale. Ok lets just throw everything (every superpower) out there and lets see if the audience is dazzled. I really wasn't a show of that much force was pointless....If they would have saved that show down for the other "winter soldiers" (and actually kept them alive to fight) would have been great. Vision dressed in a sweater vest playing butler was just plain ridiculous lol. I actually thought they did a good job with the Black Panther. If not too familiar with the character the animation featurette explains alot if you don't have time to go back to the comics. People raved about Spider Man....I thought he sucked. Just plain too young acting. I know Spider Man to be humorous but never that annoying. Overall good movie besides getting lost in the story a few times.

BvS in my opinion was good not great. Excellent observation of the movie being 30 min too long or 30 min too short. The flashbacks did seem a bit weird and distracting. I think DC failed to find that medium. I think they made a horrible attempt at trying to establish a prequel (so to speak) for the Justice League. Fans knew what the flashbacks foretold (Darkseid) but overall they were distracting for the story they were telling now. The casting of the Flash rubbed people the wrong way. DC owns the small screen right now and all shows (with the exception of Super Girl) are doing great. So I was kinda shocked to see them go left field in casting the Flash. Us DC fans were familiar with Grant Guston, so to see him not play the role on the big screen sucks. Although if he had, the show would def have to pay him waaaaay more money than they do now lol. Instead of the wasted flashback time (looked like an Acid trip lol) they could have let the Justice League shine for about 30 minutes. Overall I hope this movie did not stop or hurt future DC movies from being made. I'm looking forward to seeing Wonder Woman have her own movie. As well as grow other DC characters.

Overall I liked both movies I have seen both movies multiple times They had good points and bad points but Im looking forward to seeing lesser known heros and villains from both sides. And yes I will be seeing Apocalypse Thursday night
