NumberSix Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 But just as a trailer this second one didn't live up to the first.This. The first trailer let us meet Ultron, and he was super-creepy and I lost track of how many times I watched it just to feel that chill down my spine again and again. This one seems more focused on (a) proving Hawkeye's in the movie (meh); and (b) Hulk v. Iron Man, which promises to be one of my least favorite parts. I know I'll be an extremist minority on this. I realize the rest of America hasn't spent the last 36 years reading comics about good guys punching each other in the face, but the novelty of that fight-scene contrivance device wore off for me a long time ago.

Darth Krawlie Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Which is the main reason I'm bummed we're getting Civil War as the next Cap movie. Hopefully that's the end of the hero vs hero nonsense and we can get back to heroes fighting villains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Lohr Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Civil War may actually be my favorite event ever. Not for the novelty of hero vs hero (which isn't really that novel, anymore), but rather just as an interesting story line. In the books, they had time to really explore the effect it all had on the individual characters - such as Peter Parker's struggle to determine exactly where his beliefs and loyalties stood. It went beyond the simple slugfests we occasionally get between heroes and showed them dealing with the unique (and uncomfortable) situation of having to go against their friends (and, in some cases, country) to do what they believed was right. I just question if they'll really be able (or willing) to really do more than scratch the surface of that sort of thing within the films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryn Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Best part of the trailer for me is Banner turning to Stark and saying "Ultron!" It's perfectly "Oh, shit!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yeah, it seems to confirm a lot of conjecture I've read, but otherwise I think it was a little bit of a waste. The first one was awesome, really had me excited for the movie. This one didn't do much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumberSix Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I just question if they'll really be able (or willing) to really do more than scratch the surface of that sort of thing within the films. Unless they split it into a trilogy. Then they could really capture all the plot points from Stanford to the Fifty-State Initiative and up until...uh, whenever the Super-Hero Reigstration Act went away. I forget which crossover that was. I vote Zac Efron for Speedball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. Even non-comic fans know the characters will (ultimately) kiss & make-up, with a little biting here and there (to keep that super-geeked up end of Marvel fandom thinking how "real" it is), but the hero vs. hero thing is played out.

R.CAllen Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 When the giant green radioactive Ruffalo kicked the cop car it did not seem like it was a real thing that happened. Hope they fix that for the movie - find some way to make it look real-er. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas1138 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 That actually didn't do much for me. I still have 100% confidence that the movie will be awesome (and more importantly, fun), but that seemed just okay to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NumberSix Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This is the first time we've even seen a glimpse of him, let alone known any details. For all we know he could be this movie's answer to Grimlock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Lohr Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Wow on the accent Maixmoff lol.I was rather pleased to hear that! So rarely are the non-American characters ever given anything but the same old generic American accent as everyone else. Even in many of the cartoon versions that's true. An English accent is about the only other thing you'll usually here - even if they're not even remotely English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
