With what they are doing to Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and the Avengers are you happy or not?

I am not. Downey will play in the next two Avengers and he is out, talks are in place to find someone cheaper (IDIOTS, they have a formula that works and the fans love kick in a few million more for his salary as my favorite Uncle used to say Jesus Judas! They are pulling in billions in just box office performance in Iron Man, that doesn't include all the tie ins, toys, Legos, Video Games, Costumes etc.) Corporate greed is while past comic book movies NEVER worked until Batman when they paid Jack Nicholson the highest rate for an actor at a time, and they had a successful franchise, they changed it and it went to hell.

Then in Thor Ragnarok, Thor will die. They said they are keeping it in line with the comics and Thor dies.

Then The Civil War splits up the Avengers and they fight each other. It's a crap storyline. I am not excited and am more then likely done watching them. I have been a hard core fan from day one!

What's your opinion?

So pumped.

Robert Downey Jr. won't be done with these films until the end of Infinity Wars... which means we have over half a decade of him being Iron Man, and then I think maybe we can let that franchise rest for a bit.

Do you know how much Marvel needs him? They actually gave him the goddamn 30 foot tall "A" on the Stark building after he jokingly said he wanted it. I'm not making this up.

Not sure why you didn't like Civil War... especially when that was honestly the first series of comics where I actually cared whatsoever about Cap (Well... I think he's actually Colonel America by then in the comics). He's awesome! He represents an antiquated values system that simply has no place in this universe we've been watching, and I won't spoil the amazing fights that... well, we'll probably never see a lot of them since The Fantastic Four and Spiderman aren't owned by Marvel, but whatev.

Besides, I'm pretty sure that Marvel really only did this because of DC's vague long-term release dates, including some 2020 untitled Batman and Superman originals. (I should add that I love DC too. I dig comics)

What's not to like? Kill them off at the end! It's comics. They've been dead eight times over at this point.

And, come on, to really break down Civil War just look at the basic theme that they ask - should all costumed vigilantes, good or bad, be forced to give up their true identity to the government? This was set in stage when Marvel was being pretty culturally relevant about privacy issues in America and invasions thereof, and who would have thought that the greatest proponents thereof and against would be the two people (Tony Stark and Steve Rogers) who everybody already knows?

So... yeah. Looks good to me.
