My sincere apologies for the error. Has he talked about how derivate civil war is with the registration act thing , only for it to be dropped in the second half of the movie with a cliche revenge story. goodness me, to think the cure storyline in X3 was more complex than civil war. Did you like the ending of Last Stand at the time, and has your opinion of it changed over time? I initially thought it was a real bummer, but I've come to really enjoy and appreciate X3 over time. My feelings on it are actually very similar to how I feel about Spider-Man 3. (Who's the one other dude who likes Spider-Man 3 and reps it with me in threads? Is that you, President Ackbar™?)

the accords felt more real and better done than any mutant registration act story. civil war didnt make it out to be 100% bad like xmen always does. thats a legit point. so basically are you are saying that X-Men are ashamed of comic books and Marvel embraces the wonderousness of reality?

Do these embrace the bankrupt, grounded approach of being ashamed of comic books vis a vis MCU's embrace of wondrousness?

Civil War has never sat well with me for exactly this reason. It raises some interesting questions and it's filled with fun action sequences, yet you're left wondering why it came to blows. I was never a huge fan of the airport fight for the opposite reason, though. I didn't think they were fighting like children, I thought they were completely insane. They said they didn't really want to hurt each other but Scarlet Witch was throwing cars at people, Cap drops a jet bridge on Spider-Man's head without knowing he can support it and Vision would have killed Falcon with that blast. (And let's not even mention the nonsense of Tony recruiting a teenager to take part in a super powered brawl when his entire argument is that innocent people get hurt when they do their job.) That was also a big problem for me, secondary to the actual motivation for them to fight each other. I understand it from Caps, Bucky, Starks and Panthers point of view. Bucky is an alleged international terrorist on the run and Stark wants to bring him whilst TChala wants revenge. Cap is Buckys friend so has to protect him. But why tf does everyone else need to be there? Clearly a contrived scene. Its as if they came up with this big airport fight scene before they wrote thr script and had to reverse engineer to find ways to fit everyone else in. Agreed. Why the fuck was Ant-Man there? In Ant-Man, he gets released from jail and he says he just wants to be a good father to his little daughter and make his daughter proud of her ex-con dad. Then he abandons his daughter and travels to Germany to break the law by aiding and abetting a wanted fugitive and gets himself arrested again. No daughter would be proud of an ex-con dad who keeps breaking the law and getting himself arrested! Just really awful and contrived writing. Why the fuck was Spider-Man there? Because Iron Man needed help to bring in Cap and Bucky? So Iron Man decides instead of recruiting Luke Cage, who has super-strength, is bullet-proof, and is an adult, he recruits a high school kid who has never fought against other superpowered humans before? Again, just awful and contrived writing.

Mutant registration seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to me. Controlling the weather with your mind isn't the same thing as being Jewish. They're murders, they're bringing drugs, they're rapists... And some, I assume, can shoot lasers out of their eyeballs.
