The next phase of Marvel movies is underway, and it is going to be epic. With iconic Marvel characters like Captain America, Spiderman, Iron Man, Black Panther, Black Widow, and many, many others, audiences are going to be given an awesome, awesome glimpse to the how vast the comic world really is.

In "Captain America: Civil War," a schism occurs within the Avengers team after a difference in ideology and a question of who is responsible for the destruction that has occurred that the Avengers have had to stop arises. It pits epic hero against epic hero.

The "Civil War" in a nutshell: after the destruction that happened in New York City in the first "Avengers" movie, the crash of the helicarrier in the second "Captain America" movie, and the country of Sokovia being pulled into the air and almost dropped down to the planet to cause extinction, S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to have full control over the Avengers. Iron Man is in full support of this. After what has happened to Tony Stark, with his creating Ultron, who caused the destruction in the second "Avengers" movie, my theory is that he probably feels that he needs government oversight so he doesn't make the same mistake and there is someone to check him. He blames himself for Sokovia.

Captain America is on the other side of the fence: he believes the Avengers need to operate without government interference. It's kind of surprising that a soldier from World War II, whose name is CAPTAIN AMERICA, would take that stance. Or maybe it isn't. Many soldiers, after having gone through war, become disillusioned with the establishments that they believe created it. Not only that, but Cap has seen how the government allowed for the Red Skull to operate during World War II, let Loki's scepter be used to almost cause an alien invasion (not to mention make more weapons to fight someone like Thor), experimented on his soldier friend Bucky and turned him into the Winter Soldier, and many other things. This is a theory. In my eyes, Cap thinks it is the government's (and like organizations) mistakes which allowed for destruction to occur. It's kind of true, considering the creation of 90 percent of the Avengers came from government conflict. In fact, a lot of what starts the Civil War is Cap protecting Bucky from being punished for something that wasn't fully his fault, as he was brainwashed by Hydra, a terrorist organization with deep government ties:

I for one am Team Captain America. I agree that S.H.I.E.L.D. (and the government) is obviously necessary to protect people. I don't think it can hurt to have the government and a superhero team work hand in hand. However, I think the problem is that S.H.I.E.L.D. and the government see things in black and white. When you have a soldier from WWII (two, in fact) who are basically genetically engineered, a man who is a living computer (Vision), someone like Thor (who is not in this movie), a human spider, and all these other extraordinary beings, you can't slap a label of 'government agent' on them. They can't operate within the normal parameters, especially when they are dealing with circumstances that are not normal. Not only that, but maybe the government needs a team like the Avengers to keep them honest. They DID contribute to situations that created much of the conflict in the movies.

Whatever the case, "Captain America: Civil War" promises to be an epic movie to start off the summer movie roll and will probably provide an interesting discussion on government regulation. Even if you don't like comics (I can't imagine why), reading between the lines and understanding THAT conversation is something many, many people can get something out of. "Civil War" has already had a great international debut and will be released in theaters in America, May 6, 2016.
