I want a superhero movie where they deliberately let the bad guys destroy like half the fucking planet, and be like "well we probably could have stopped them but you'd have bitched about us anyway."

This is the Rouge cop argument.

"We could easily stopped all the bad guys if all those stupid rules and civil liberties didn't get in the way"

I think when you're saving an entire planet from forces that are super powerful and hard to take down that there's going to be some collateral damage. I think it's a bit different than that, and it's fiction. I was also partially joking, though I do think it would be kind of amusing.

I don't follow this stuff all that closely, but I kind of thought this is what the whole movie was about. Not necessarily a registration, but the idea that superheroes should let some governing body determine what they can and can't use their powers for rather making the decision themselves. That and protecting the winter soldier.

It is objectively the better team by far. Just wait until sabotage inevitably occurs.

As long as they present both sides somewhat fairly I'm good.

...you do realize that these two characters going head to head is being comic book accurate, right?

He is way worse in the movies than 90% of the comics.
After Avengers 1 he just becomes an awful character, one of the main reasons I find IM3 to probably be my most hated MCU movie(Thor 2 only other close).
It just felt like IM3 ruined him, AoU certainly didn't help and now this Civil War shit to follow it up.

IM3 was so bad imo it almost makes me tired of RDJ in general.

Comic Tony Stark is pretty worthless most of the time. Even at his worst in the MCU, he never approaches comic Civil War level of douchebaggery.

Captain America came off worst then Ironman did in Civil War. Civil War pushed Cap way into ashole country. AvX solidified him as Marvel's biggest douchebag / hypocrite.

I didn't mean the treaty was the law. I'm talking about the laws of the places they choose to operate in. What you are saying is not different from what I said.

We don't even know the content of the accords right now.

Ok that's fair since that's what you're going for but there is a big hanging issue. Certain heroes and specifically the Avengers are multinational. Certain heroes are or soon will be multistellar. Who knows how the accord will be portrayed but the worst case scenario is trying to assign ownership of individuals to "host" countries.

What did he do in both to receive such callsign?

Iron Man made an evil Thor and put supes in prison tho. What could Cap have done to out-evil that (i'm not fully familiar with the Civil War story).
