Fantastic film, the russo brothers really know how to get this marvel shit done. This movie blows avengers 2 away.

Darkman has my favorite "edited for TV" line. Instead of saying "take the fucking elephant!" it's edited for tv as: "take the fluffy elephant!"

It's simply the best.

Saw it yesterday. I wasnt blown away...maybe its because im tired of superhero movies, maybe its because after the cinematic experience of Batman v Superman, this thing felt like a very expensive tv show...i dont know.

The Spidey thing felt so...desperate. I like the guy who is playing it, and the talk and stuff but...this intro the the marvel universe reeks of desperation...how we get to know the character and how he is gone...did we need him in the story? no.

I like Downey and Evans though. They are as good as it gets when it comes to play this characters.

I agree. This didn't sit right with me at all, and it gets worse the more I think about it. Spidey was fun to watch but he felt so completely shoehorned in. It was even more out of place than the Falcon fight in Ant-Man.

totally shoehorned in, but he was fun, so I forgive it.

What worked so well for Winter Soldier doesn't work nearly as well when there are 20 super powered god beings instead of just 2. Its fun when it goes full on Avengers, and its good when it shrinks down to just Cap and one or two others, but when it tries to mix both, its a mess.

Down here we had
Spoiler: show
mid-credits scene with Black Panther putting Bucky to ice, and a pointless post-credits scene with Spider-Man that is only worth sticking around for to look at Marisa Tomei for another three seconds
