Another reskinned superhero movie, but this time, double the reskin!

Intro to superhero
Intro to villain
Superhero loses
Kill off villain
Intro to villain
Superhero loses
Superhero comes back
Someone tells superhero they won't help them
Fighting starts
The people that said they won't help actually do help
Superhero wins

Was not really a fan. They could have dropped the first half of the movie and it would have at least gotten me out of there a little sooner.

Not really sure what you expect out of a super hero movie (or really any movie for that matter) everything has a template since there are no "new ideas" anymore.

Right, this is why I don't really like superhero movies.

I wish Black Panther had the legs to pass Avatar, but I don't see it making another $100m. The movie is fantastic.

I don't think you like anything... really. You may want to seek help for that. Better yet, if you grew up with the crap we used to have pass as superhero movies... you'd love this Marvel and DC stuff. Seriously, Superman came out in the late 70s then the next decent superhero movie was Batman in the late 80s. Marvel had yet to make a decent super hero movie. Granted, Blade was a Marvel movie, but no one knew that nor was it the Marvel we know now. It wasn't until iron Man that a decent Marvel movie was made. DO NOT bring up that Bryan Singer trash... he's trash, everyhting he does is trash, so happy he's out of Hollywood. My point is, growing up wanting to see my favorite super heroes in movies but get garbage time and time again... Google the first Captain America movie, hint its not with Chris Evans, its AWFUL!! You'd love what Marvel is doing. I will admit the same storyline play book for each movie is getting old but its still cool to watch what happens. Seriously, research old comic book movies... Dolph Lundgren as the Punisher... ouch.

I don't think comic book movies are good just because they were so bad before. These are good movies because they are good movies. I agree with Crckrjack, after 15 Marvel movies they all typically follow the same format, but it's also the same format almost all Hollywood movies follow. I can understand why why some may be tired of this after so many, but I still enjoy them and look forward to more.

I agree too, actually. I'm sick of Marvel. I like the standalone ones, but I'm so sick of the Universe shit.

Soooo... you are sick of the Avengers movies, all 2 of them?

I argued that I felt the Ultimate Edition of the BvS: DoJ was a better movie than Capt America: Civil War. At the time, I felt and still feel that Marvel has become very cookie cutter, same movie just the players are changed. I think Marvel movies are a high quality but rarely step outside the box. Thor 3 has kinda broken that mold. I hate that WB execs messed with Zach's vision and didn't let it work out. I don't know if you can introduce a new character with a different outline, but I would love to see. I think the studios are not wanting to step outside the lines or out on a limb too much due to the amount of money that is being used. Deadpool was incredible movie on a smaller budget. I think I lost my point somewhere... I like these super hero movies, I'll continue to watch em.

The avengers weren't the only movies that had multiple characters. Civil War, Spiderman:homecoming, Ant-Man, and Thor all have some sort of conglomeration of characters. I especially hate the cameos. Like Captain America giving motivation high school videos in Spiderman. drives me nuts.

Finally watched it. I liked it because although it is reskinned, it was at least standalone. I didn't have to see unbearable references to other movies for no reason at all.

M Jordan was awesome
