Yawn
agree.
Looks good in a 1 minute trailer, but I see a lot in there that will make this bad.
First: Winter Soldier was pretty good as far as the "big hero" Marvel movies go. small story, limited heroes. It was something of a thriller with action and super heroes. Good entertainment.
Here we see, basically, another Avengers movie. Too many heroes, too much crap going on. Lots of people punching each other for about 2 or 2.5 hours where in the end, we basically end up where we started and we ask ourselves what was gained during that 2.5 hours of punching. Punching none of these people ever leads to any consequences. They get over their little differences in the end and move on to another movie where they punch each other for 2.5 hours.
Second: it looks like we are introducing Black Panther for some reason? How much is that going to eat up of the running time and distract from Bucky and CA vs Avengers? And even if he is just tossed in there without much thought to his origin in this movie universe, isn't that probably another failure?
Isn't Spiderman also in this?

:hmm: You say that like there is something wrong with this?
True, Transformers are way worse for all of those reasons and more, but in the end these are still rather empty.
The Marvel Universe films are downright Shakespearian in depth compared to Transformers. The last one was three hours of explosions, blurred action, piercing noise, and random garbage plot just dumped anywhere.
For those that don't know the story, it's pretty relevant for today: the government wants super-powered humans to register and be tracked. Capt. America is against this idea, Tony Stark is for it. Chaos ensues.

I'd say it depends which one, but I think the last Captain America did and awesome job mixing story, dialog and action. I think Honest Trailers does a fairly accurate summation of it. Here's hoping the studio does a similar job with this one.

Spidey's in it too. But that's only going to make it more awesome, not less. If you know what the story is about, all of these superheroes have to be in it. Read up on it.agree.

I'm not saying that it's all wrong, just what's the point when it's the same thing over and over again? I enjoy them, but few of them are really worth the cost of entry, tbh.

I hope the movie focuses on this more, based on the trailer he's doing it "because he's my friend". The thing that makes it really interesting is Cap standing on high moral ground, not because he's being a bro.
