Captain America: Civil War (May 6, 2016)

Seriously though... I hate the Jane Punisher film.
So goofy. Goofy side characters, goofy villain, goofy music, etc...
The russian fight was sort of fun but they kept showing the goofy neighbors dancing around so that scene was ruined.

You've listed all the reasons why I love it...

There's a serious flaw in your algorithm.

Goofy is the perfect word for that Punisher film. Not really ideal considering the character that features in it

The russian fight was sort of fun but they kept showing the goofy neighbors dancing around so that scene was ruined. I think it's a bad action film and an awful Punisher movie.

Ok... I was never sure how to take some of your movie criticisms... I thought perhaps you were just hard to please. Turns out that is not the case and I am back to square one on trying to figure you out.

I thought it was a fun movie.

A fun Punisher movie.

When you look at things through Cannibal Campout eyes it is much easier to enjoy films like The Punisher

Jane Punisher was awesome....some of you need to remove the sticks from your ass

This dude in Alabama wants to pay for my autograph. This is when I appreciate living in lower NYS.

I don't make a cent off those CC t-shirts btw...damn it!

Saw this finally on Sunday. It was OK. A bit cluttered and pointless.

TWS was (is) much better.

I just read the Civil War trade paperback (actually it was a hardcover.) The movie version is SO much better. As far as I'm concerned comic Cap ended in 1996 when Volume 1 drew to a close prior to "Heroes Reborn" and the cycle of endless reboots every couple years. I don't even really like Brubaker's take on Cap though I appreciate his work as a glorified rough draft for the superior film.

The movie truly is way better. I said the same thing.

Arrow Wannabe lets loose three arrows, Panthro catches two, there did the third go?

Into a plothole?

It's because Bendis wrote it...the first 4 issues were good, but 5-7 were a hot mess

Whoever made this Gif it wasn't cut properly. He doesn't shoot three arrows at panther only two and he also fights him with this stick thing.

Better be ready to deal with ironwez if you're going to post an inaccurate gif.

You read comics? Who knew. I assumed that since you hated animation that that translated to funny books as well.

Actually it was Mark Millar. And yeah, the beginning had promise but things escalated WAY too quickly between the heroes. I've come to the realization that I just don't care for much of anything in the Marvel Comic Universe from the time of Quesada as Editor in Chief and later. The new guard of Bendis, Millar, and Brubaker just weren't/aren't my thing. People say that the 90's were the worst era in comics but at least that decade got the characters right. Brubaker's run on Cap was well written from an espionage thriller standpoint but his take on Cap was inferior to what came before. Don't even get me started on Millar.

I feel like Marvel Comics got very mean spirited when Millar and company came aboard. Cap is often depressed, Stark is totally unlikable, Reed Richards is constantly getting people killed (Thor robot he made kills Goliath, ship for the Hulk blows up half his damn planet, killing his queen) Spider-Man makes deals with the devil, etc. Everyone is constantly ****ing everybody else, either in combat or between the sheets and the whole "heroic" universe just turned into this dark and smutty place. It seems like all the heroes just crossed lines that you can't come back from on the Quesada, Bendis, and Millar's watch and so I dismiss the whole thing.

They did have some decent plot ideas though, and I'm glad people who have a better grasp of the characters are redoing those as films (Winter Soldier/Civil War.)

I like the idea of having "new" stories to look forward to but I've got decades of great reading from the 60's to the 90's and that is enough.

Yeah that's the issue I have with the original comic, cool as it can be at times, it's a real mess

Eh, Civil War (the book) was so-so. It had great art, an interesting premise and whatnot, but it wasn't well executed. If it's a battle between CW and Kingdom Come, I'll choose Kingdom Come, any day, every day. It's one of my favourite OGNs ever.
