And no matter how often it's explained to you, you never comprehend. Bucky can argue his "brainwashing" defense in front of a jury. But STEVE ROGERS ISN'T ALLOWED TO APPOINT HIMSELF THE SOLE JUDGE AND JURY. ONLY TYRANTS DO THAT.That's because you're dead wrong. Superheroes, by their nature, transcend conventional law enforcement. They are the ultimate vigilantes. No one controls Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Ironman ... etc. They follow their own code of justice. When it is good, they are heroes, when it turns bad, they become villains. Wrong again. The Justice League don't have their own justice system. None of them appoint themselves judge and jury like the Avengers do. Superman is the most powerful person on the planet and could rule the planet of he wanted to. But he doesn't. He's willing to surrender himself to the custody of the US military even though they didn't have the power to force him to. He's willing to appear before a Congressional committee when summoned even though Congress didn't have the power to force him to. Because Superman respects the authority of the people and is willing to answer to the people. Unlike the Avengers, who believe that they don't have to answer to the people because they're more powerful than the people. The Avengers' system of justice is that Might Makes Right. Whoever is the mightiest is right. No one wants a superhero who is just the muscle of the state. A brainless automaton who only does what he is instructed to do, bound by bureaucrats and lawyers. ... except, of course, you. No one wants a superhero who believes that they can be a tyrant and rule over the people and refuse to be held accountable for their actions. … except, of course, some MCU fans like you. you've completely missed the point of what a superhero is. It's MCU fans like you who've completely missed the point of what a superhero is. A superhero is not someone who takes absolute power over the people just because they're the more powerful than the people. Because there's no difference between a dictator and someone who takes absolute power over the people just because they're more powerful than the people (like Steve Rogers).
A superhero is someone who's willing to use their superpowers not for their own selfish agenda (like the Avengers often do) but for the greater good AND who is still willing ultimately to recognize that their superpowers do not give them any more privileges than the rest of the people and their superpowers do not give them free reign to do whatever they want without answering to the people or being held accountable to the people.
There's a reason that the Founding Fathers didn't give POTUS absolute power without any checks and balances. Because giving 1 person absolute powers is usually the 1st step towards tyranny. The Founding Fathers put checks and balances in the Constitution to ensure that POTUS doesn't have absolute power and is still held accountable to the people.
Steve Rogers doesn't believe in those checks and balances on absolute power because Steve Rogers believes that Might Makes Right. Steve Rogers believes that having superpowers puts him above the people and gives him free range to whatever he wants without having to answer to the people or be held accountable to the people.

Like the Spider-Man guy they have is but a cog in the well-oiled machine compared to Sam "Evil Dead" Raimi, yet he does the job. An awful job. Both Homecoming and Far From Home were awful movies, definitely the 2 worst live-action Spider-Man movies ever made.

No matter how often anyone corrects you, you never comprehend. BUCKY KILLED DOZENS OF PEOPLE UNDER MIND CONTROL. And no matter how often it's explained to you, you never comprehend. Bucky can argue his "brainwashing" defense in front of a jury. But STEVE ROGERS ISN'T ALLOWED TO APPOINT HIMSELF THE SOLE JUDGE AND JURY. ONLY TYRANTS DO THAT.

Why would anyone pay $7 a month for crap? Yet, you pay for DC Universe. Because Titans and Swamp Thing are good. Unlike the crappy MCU shows like AoS, Agent Carter , and Jessica Jones.

It's a flerken, you dumb shit. Prawn and Shrimp are the same thing. Snake and Serpent are the same thing. Turtle and Tortoise are the same thing. Rabbit and Hare are the same thing. And Cat and Flerken are the same thing.

By far. It's the worst comic book film of 2019. I haven’t seen it but I heard Hellboy was worse. Hellboy is pretty bad. But Captain Marvel is worse than Hellboy and definitely worse than Dark Phoenix.

They make arguably the most boring and useless character in the entire franchise that they finally seemed to be rid of become the new Thor because...why? Because MCU always caters to the SJWs.

I guess everyone has to get Disney+ if we want to keep up with the MCU now. $7 a month too much for you? Not willing to actually pay for material to troll about? Why would anyone pay $7 a month for crap?

Do they forget how hard Steve Rogers tried to sacrifice himself to save others. So, sorry, no. As much as he wants to have a happily ever after with Peggy, he can't. He can't live with the idea of people crushed by the bully because he had to get the girl. That actually fits with the selfish character that Steve Rogers has always been. Rogers has never cared about saving others or protecting others. The whole reason he joined the army was because he saw that the other enlistees were getting attention from the girls and he wanted some attention from the girls too. That's why when he found out he had been asleep for 70 years, he didn't even bother to ask "Did we win the war?" or "Who won the war?" He was only concerned about not getting a chance to bang Peggy Carter. Then in Civil War, Rogers has a chance to do the right thing and bring in a double-murderer and send a message to the people "Even though I have all these super-powers, I still believe in democracy and the justice system so I'm bringing in my best friend to face a jury of the people and let the people decide his guilt or innocence."
Instead, Cap aids and abets a double-murderer to escape from the law and basically sends the message to everyone "I don't believe in democracy or your justice system. I have super-powers so I don't have to abide by your justice system and I alone shall be judge and jury and I alone shall decide guilt or innocence. Moreover, I don't give a shit that the cops are going to have to spend valuable manpower and resources to chase after Bucky and me (thereby taking manpower and resources away from chasing after other criminals) and endanger the lives of many innocent civilians by chasing us through a crowded public street because I don't give a shit about whether innocent civilians get injured or killed."

I'm surprised Warner Bros didn't show anything from DC because they should have had footage for Wonder Woman and Birds of Prey as well as another trailer for Joker. I know the Marvel one announced a lot but they showed nothing? Isn’t Joker supposed to be shown at Venice Film Festival? There’s no real point in releasing it for Comic Con if that’s the case. The lineup for the Venice Film Festival is expected to be announced this Thursday. But yes, it's been mentioned that Joker may premiere at the Venice Film Festival. The last 5 Best Picture winners have been shown at the Venice Film Festival so if Joker is shown at the Venice Film Festival, it could not only be the 1st CBM to get a legitimate Oscar nomination for Best Picture (without resorting to the use of the race card) but also could be the 1st CBM to actually win the Best Picture Oscar.

Most MCU fans worship MCU Dictator Kevin Feige like he's Jesus so they think that every idea Feige has must be good and it's blasphemy to say otherwise. Considering Feige's incredible track record, he has certainly earned the benefit of the doubt. If he were to start producing dogs like BvS and Justice League, then we would have reason to question his decisions. Feige has produced almost 2 dozen dogs - basically the MCU.

A female 007 would be as awful as MCU making a female Thor movie.

.......god damn it. It didn't take long for A LOT of my excitement regarding a 4th Thor film to be diminished. Literally, did ANYBODY give a shit that Natalie Portman was gone and forgotten about in Ragnarok which is regarded mostly as the best in the Thor franchise? Now we've got people just blowing up as if it's the greatest thing ever that she's back and in such a big way? Most MCU fans worship MCU Dictator Kevin Feige like he's Jesus so they think that every idea Feige has must be good and it's blasphemy to say otherwise.

So MCU is going the SJW once again, replacing male characters with female characters.

Thats 95 percent of the mcu waste of potienal. Fat and fortnite thor lol The time travel plot too. I'm sure it must have gotten a big discussion on this board on how bad and contrived it was. Yep, the time travel made no sense at all in Endgame. Aside from the fact that that when past Thanos and his army traveled to 2023 and thus skipped over the events of Infinity War (which means that the events of Infinity War, such as the snap, should've never happened since Thanos and his army were no longer present in 2018 for those events), the final battle in 2023 shouldn't have happened because past Nebula has access to 2023 Nebula's memories so past Nebula would know that past Thanos would be defeated in 2023 by Iron Man and thus past Thanos would also know and wouldn't travel with his army to 2023 and instead just travel to 2018 and kill Tony Stark right after Strange gave Thanos the time stone.

For a time travel movie and a chance to do something different than the average joe MCU movie. Some things I didn't like.
Fat thor Final battle
Poor time travel plot
disjointed story telling Spiderman uneven tone.
Yep, I've also pointed out many of those negatives. But many MCU fans here attacked me for it because they didn't like dissenting and negative opinions of MCU movies.

Just announced: Natalie Portman will portray "female Thor" in the next film. (Her character Jane Foster returns to the MCU to take her ex-boyfriend's place as the hammer-wielding Asgardian.) So MCU is going the SJW route again by replacing male characters with female characters.

They knew! They knew they were going to be outclassed and forfeited. Well, MCU ran away from Hall H the past couple of years. Now when MCU has Hall H all to themselves, the best they can come up with is Shang-Chi, Eternals, and a female Thor? LOL!!!

No, Captain Marvel was really awful and the plot was just lazy and contrived. Dark Phoenix is definitely much better than that crappy Captain Marvel.

If so, what was the last such movie you saw? A few years ago a local independent theater had a screening of several Hitchcock movies. I went to a screening of Dial M for Murder.
