I will honor this thread, and having just finished watching Civil War, I'll say this: Captain America is a piece of poo poo.

They've got these loving movies lined up till like 2050 right? As far as big budget action/sci-fi movies go it's superheroes and star wars until I'm dead.

That's the "Ultimates" version, the comic reboot line that Marvel eventually pretty much wiped out because it was generally pretty terrible and cringe-inducing, in particular how Cap was written.

This movie seemed to want us to distinguish between superheroes having play fights and angry fights and my brain just couldn't keep up. Is this what it's like to be old?

Those are also the best superhero things in years.

Man Whore posted:what about when the superhero story is also really bleak like Netflix's Daredevil and punisher. I keep hearing people tell me about how good Daredevil is, but I just can't get into it. Dunno if it's because I just really find the character boring or if it's something about the show itself. Edit: As for the punisher, I would've preferred an adaptation of a few arcs of the Ennis Max run or something. I also still think that the best superhero/comic book movie is Dredd which apparently may be getting a sequel after all!

Seconding that Dredd was the best comic book movie I've seen in a long time. Guardians and Winter Soldier both captured the cheesy entertainment factor of comic books pretty well though.

They recently announced he'll be getting his own Netflix series so that's definitely on the cards. The second Daredevil series had a bunch of references to classic DD/Punisher comics.

that prison hallway scene was literally the high water mark of daredevil action scenes for me so if the daredevil show is all that, all the time, then I will die happy.

daredevil takes a little while to get into because daredevil is fuckin boring and so is his girlfriend(s) and foggy "booze hound" nelson. The good part is wilson fisk & punisher & elektra

Quite a lot of Snowpiercer was amazing, although it had a gigantic Korean vibe that I didn't enjoy all that much. Tilda Swinton and Chris Evans were so good in it. Stoned Korean Dude with the last cigarette and matches in the world was pretty watchable too.

I liked how during the big airport battle with superhumans and robot weapons, the two regular humans fought each other. That was fair and good. It was pretty decent, the opening fight scene was great. The reasoning for the civil war was pretty loving stupid though. "You have literally saved humanity several times, but there was some collateral damage, therefore *fart*" What?
