CIVIL WAR
Setting:
Kill counts of the past 3 movies (Avengers 1 and 2 and Cap: Winter Soldier)
Ironman taking responsibility after COMPLETELY HAVING NONE OF IT IN Avengers 2
Airport fight in Germany
Timeline:
In Trailer: Rumored Peter Parker home (Cap is in) signalling a change of heart for
I also think it ends with Bucky/Cap fighting Ironman alone in cold place (Russia?)
Bucky is in chamber in Russia, Captain America is there to release him, Ironman shows up, fight ensues. (Beginning, middle or end of movie) Keep in mind that there is the highway scene and airport scene where Winter Soldier is present.
“You just started a war” -Tony in Russia
Tony Stark has black eye when being shown the prison, so this happens after a fight with Cap/Bucky
Underwater prison = Negative zone (Ironman prison for people who won’t sign up)
Tony Stark also has black eye in the airport scene where Roadie was “killed”
It almost looks as though Ironman has black eye before Russia meet up so maybe someone got a sucker punch on him
Winter Soldier intended to shoot Ironman in the face, but the watch hand saves him –
Then he punches him in the face
Bucky doesn’t shoot War Machine
Movie might open with UN explosion
Black Widow/Shield shows up
Black Widow calls Cap to have him “stay out of this one”
Scarlet Witch immobilizes Vision
Airport:
War Machine = Goliath = turning point of Spider-Man which means the airport fight is in the middle of the movie
Ant-Man jumps off Hawkeye arrow. Rumored to be Giant Man!
Spider-Man
Spider-Man has the Ironman upgraded suit
Villians:
Baron Zemo on cast list (villain behind everything) – Daniel Bruhl
Cap jumps through window at IFID- Institute for Infectious Diseases – In Africa
Crossbones is attacking IFID
Crossbones fights Cap in Market, possible Africa IFID
Bucky arm in vice when? In beginning of the movie, after UN explosion?
I assume Falcon and Cap go looking for Bucky
Essentially, trailer paints Ironman as a good guy making heroes register because they are “no better than the bad guys”
Death and future events:
Who dies? I’ve heard rumor of three deaths, but who knows
- Ironman gets beat an inch from his death in the comics
- Roadie appears dead in trailer
- Cap dies in the comic directly preceding this event (by Crossbones). He also has a 6 movie deal with Marvel, this being his 5th. His death could also be a catalyst for the Avengers team to stop fighting and get their stuff together.
- Bucky looks like his arm is cut off HOWEVER when Cap dies Bucky takes up the mantle, and have you seen him without long hair? He’s ruggedly handsome! Just like Chris Evans!
The Infinity Gauntlet can literally do anything, so whichever MAIN character dies, will be brought back 100%.
Russo Brothers confirm at least one end-credits scene with a max of 3. -Forbes
Comic:
Black Panther hates Tony Stark and give allegiance to Cap after Goliath dies
Vision clearly on Cap’s team
Most of Ironman’s team is the Thunderbolts
Hank Pymm on Ironman’s Team
Ironman within one punch of his life, Captain America realizes the effect the fight is having on the city and surrenders to the NYPD.
The Initiative is a plan to create superhero teams for every state, some old, some new, some created
Door 42 is still in use as a prison
Some heroes move to Canada for freedom in heroing
Some of Cap’s team is still underground fighting for Superhero freedom including Luke Cage, Dr. Strange, Spider-Man and Spider-Woman
Ironman’s Team “wins”
Tony Stark become director of Shield to protect hero identities.
