I know. And Negan. And the Comedian. That's why I figured it was too soon. But what an actor!

Huh?

[Comicopolis]

Huh?

 

Somebody originally claimed that MOS was a misogynistic movie.

[Bosco685]

Ugh!

[Bosco685]

So on a lighter note...

 

 

The gauntlet has been thrown. And the shield shall land accordingly!

Misogyny is offensive, if provable. Viewers and reviewers are free to point out examples of things that make them uncomfortable. Mileage varies of course.

 

This is a Cap thread, not MoS, but there have been accusations of misogyny levied at Zack Snyder's take on both Superman films by critics and filmgoers. It may or may not be fair, but'cha calls 'em as you sees 'em.

 

PS: Looked up several critical reviews which corroborated the fact that this impression exists.

 

Don't blame me, I'm just the messenger.

Captain America: Civil War Review: Fighting To Be The Best

 

On the heels of Avengers: Age of Ultron, the Marvel heroes are left frowned upon by much of the world. After all, it was Tony Stark's fault that Ultron was created in the first place. Now, back in the United States, Captain America finds himself being governed into not being a hero at will. His biggest objection to this comes from the need to help his best friend, Bucky Barnes, after he is accused of a horrible crime. Stark, on the other hand, feels the weight of his actions in Sokovia on very intimate levels and sides with the government.

 

At no point during Captain America: Civil War does one character seem "more right" than the other, and it's a remarkable achievement. Everything the filmmakers and cast members said about audiences being truly divided turns out to be true. Captain America is not only fighting for something he believes in but what he believes in is credible and organic to the film's story. The same can be said for Iron Man.

 

Bottom Line: Captain America: Civil War is a truly epic and gigantic super hero film with on-point emotional moments and the best action sequences to date. It hits theaters May 6, 2016.

 

Final Score: 9.8/10.0

 

Wow!

Just amazing to see Marvel rising to such heights and DC sinking to such lows all within a 5-week span.

So you haven't even seen the movie yet. But you are going to keep your hate of the movie going?

 

 

You don't need to have seen the film to be an expert on it. Just find a review that validates your confirmation bias.

DC characters are waaay more interesting and you know it. There's flying guys and stretchy guys, an Amazonian with an invisible plane, a dude dressed up like a bat whose superpower is money and everyone's mother is called Martha

That`s because DC hasn`t gotten to their real cool characters yet like

Lobo

Swamp Thing

New Gods

Sandman

Right now unfortunately DC is concentrating on their campy sixties heroes who don`t fit in with modern mainstream like the Marvel heroes do.

Wait until they get to the Kirby and Vertigo stuff!

It will be a new ballgame.

Batman is the greatest comic book hero (and rogue gallery). And I am a lifelong Spider-man and Marvel fan.
