Captain America: Civil War

[Joe Kerr]

Torn on it... I knew going in that there was no way they were going to follow the massive storyline. However I wish that the speedball fight that started it all was in the movie. I liked that it was action from beginning to end and the black panther was well done. Some key comic book parts of the story were missing. (Thor killing giant man) but with the allowed time, I would have named it something else. Good movie can't wait for part two.

I'm sorry, but I think your expectations of staying true to the source is way too high. To the the point where the film would suffer if they actually did.

The new warriors incident worked for the comics, in that world of thousands of superhumans and decades of history. In the MCU, with it's tightly woven overarching plot, it makes much more sense to directly involve the avengers' actions as the reason for the reg act. It's the same reason they made stark create ultron instead of introducing hank pym.

They're condensing decades of marvel history within this much smaller universe. To make it work smoothly, sacrifices will need to be made in some of the adaptations.

And no, they shouldn't have called it something else, because no matter what else happened in civil war, the main driving plot was the war of ideologies between cap and tony, and as I stated above, I think the movie actually did it better than the comic.

Thor never killed Giantman in the Cival War arc
