I might have to leave for 2-3 days because something very important (but personal) just came up. I'll come back to the RP ASAP (you may control my character if needed)

@NarayanK

No worries. Whatever it is, I hope it goes well.

To everyone else, I apologize for the delays in a post from me. We're nearing crunch time for college, in fact I've already been there for my CS class, and I've been working on getting home for Thanksgiving. I should be able to get a post done tomorrow.

Nobody minds my occasional comments right?

@chukklehed

Nah, I don't mind.

Anyway, anyone seen the new Captain America: Civil War trailer? I'm both excited and worried. Excited because it looks like it's going to be good. Worried because, unlike the original book where you had countless heroes all fighting each other, the cinematic universe only has a handful of characters to use since they haven't introduced that many yet.

To be fair, the original Civil War was shit.

I kind of liked it, I just wish they did more with the aftermath. Seriously, this was a world shattering event. The Pro-Reg side won. Heroes were now supposed to be government agents or they would be incarcerated. And yet, as soon as the event was over, things seemed to go immediately back to normal. By the time the Super Hero Registration Act was repealed at the end of Siege, I had practically forgotten about it.

[chukklehed]

Actually, there might be more than you think. There have been a bunch of marvel shows starting and playing in the background while the avengers have been taking the spotlight. Daredevil and Iron Fist, just to name two.

@chukklehed

I know, but we're not going to see anything like this or this even if you add the TV heroes (and I doubt Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, etc. are even going to get mentioned let alone get screen time in the new movie.)

EDIT: I guess what I'm trying to get at is it doesn't seem like there's enough characters yet to actually call it a "war," it seems more like it's just going to be a couple fights.

[Suku]

still waiting on some posts for mission before I do mine....

@Guess Who

Civil War was an entire event. This is a movie with a limited runtime.

It may not be a war, but it could be more of a metaphorical title. Besides, less heroes means less characters to balance, making the movie less crowded and ensuring that more of them can undergo development. The current cast is already pretty big, after all.

@Crimmy

Let's just hope we don't get another Age of Ultron where the only thing the movie shares with the original book is the title. I still cringe whenever I think about the Black Widow and Hulk relationship in that movie.

I hope my contest post is fine :P
Although it took a lot more time searching for the fitting music than actually writing it.
I'm a major lover of all things music.

@Crimmy

There is truth to both of these comments. Yes, they had a pretty swell idea, they just made a fucking horrible attempt at executing it. I mean, Tony Stark, the guy that was supposed to be ye we need to register these heroes, hires a bunch of former villains that killed people? Wut?

What I like about the movie adaption so far is that tony actually seems to stay in character and has a better reason to be pro-reg.

[Lucius Cypher]

Not to detract from the convo, but I won't be active IC wise these next few days cause I'll be outta town. I'll have my cellphone, but that's about it.
