On March 10th, the second trailer for the next addition in the Marvel cinematic universe arrived. "Captain America: Civil War" will be coming to us on May 6th, and I couldn't be more excited if I tried. I have always been a huge fan of Captain America and the movies that follow his story line are both visually appealing, like most Marvel movies, and have a very solid plot. This will be the third "Captain America" movie. It will feature the Avengers, as well as some new heroes to join the bunch, and is based on one of Marvel's largest crossover comics: "Civil War." It has been stated that the movie takes place directly after what has happened in the "Avengers: Age of Ultron." From watching the two trailers, we see that the civil war will be between two prominent members of the Avengers: Captain America and Iron Man.
The dispute started when the team sat down to go over the collateral damages that they had caused while trying to rescue the world. As we see time and time again, a city, or most of it, is destroyed in the process. People died because of what happened. The repairs and costs of the damage rank up in the millions. A law may be put into place called the Superhero Registration Act. Basically, the government is tired of the superhero team and the villains that they fight causing millions of dollars worth of damages, especially considering that the last time Captain America (Steve Rodgers) put his trust in the government, it was something that turned evil and needed to be destroyed. This would undoubtedly push him to want heroes to save the day without any government surveillance, interference, or involvement.
On the other side, though, we see Iron Man (Tony Stark) in favor of the law, thinking that surveillance would benefit heroes everywhere. Looking back on the story of Iron Man, we see this is a vast difference from the Iron Man with whom we started, especially in the second "Iron Man" movie where we see Stark completely rebel against the government. What becomes clear through "Avengers: Age of Ultron," though, is that Stark has developed PTSD from years of defending and protecting the people. He feels personal guilt about all the lives lost and thinks that the law will help spare even more of the innocent.
Aside from the feud, we see an arrangement of heroes, both old and new. Which side each hero decides to take, either with The Captain or Iron Man, it will be something to look forward to on our screens. "Captain America: Civil War" premieres May 6th, 2016. Watch the two trailers below and get excited!
