The 2014 movie “Captain America: Winter Soldier” was a darker take on the classic superhero, featuring more violence and less humor than its 2011 predecessor.
That trend will continue in the upcoming “Captain America: Civil War,” writing and directing duo Joe and Anthony Russo said at this weekend’s Wizard World Cleveland Comic Con. Fans can expect the upcoming movie to be even more aggressive and gritty than the second installment.
Lol so true… I don’t even think this is the start of their “dark” campaign
Once bvs is out, they will need to do a lot to get people to go see this movie
Yikesspikes
Lol. So now they’re desperate for cash grabs that they’re jacking DC’s style? Sick of Marvel smh.

You’re proof why DC fans are worse than Marvel’s.
Vulpini
So… one fan speaks for everybody? Oh wow.
eden_01
Oh please. I’ve been on this website long enough to realize that you DC fans attack Marvel than they attack you.
MovieFan
Really I’ve been on and off this site for two years now and I have NEVER seen a fan on here attack Marvel fans. The only incidents I have seen are trolls/MCU “fans” (I hate calling them fans because I know there are MCU fans out there who aren’t like that) who come on this site whenever there’s a trailer out or big announcement who verbally attack fans on this site and then only then do others respond. If you call people have an opinion you don’t like or agree with attacking fans you need to rethink some things.

Oh please my ass. Go to youtube and check the comment section of any DC trailer/property. There are Marvel trolls, who call themselves fans. More like biased fanboys. And all they do is talk shit about DC and how much they want it to fail. Like wtf is wrong with them? And we are the bad ones here? Gimme a break you hypocrite. Marvel fanboys have been attacking DC fans since Iron Man 1. Now that’s a fact. Don’t act like Marvel has non of these trolls and it’s only about the DC fanbase. Every fanbase has them. They’re just louder than the other ones. That’s why they get the most attention. If you really want to see the difference… as I said, check on youtube a Marvel trailer and a DC one. The Marvel ones are the most annoying. They’re shoving the success of the MCU up our faces for no reason. I heard there’s even a campaign against the DCEU. Made by biased fanboys…. like seriously wtf.

Okay, I can agree that there are complete biased fanboys from both sides of the spectrum. But in my experience, ever since BvS was announced they declared that this movie will be the ‘end of Marvel’. Do I think BvS is going to be a huge success? F*ck yes and I really hope it means more CBM in the future of their universe, but likewise, the fact is, those are the fans that completely ridicule every aspect of Marvel such as the comedy, which I can admit can get way too overboard (*cough* *cough* Iron Man 3/AOU) and that ‘it’s meant for kids’. And I’ve always hated the argument that ‘dark & gritty means better’ ideology. But yeah, like I said, that’s just in my experience, I guess. I apologize for my previous comment.

Why lie?

So being dark automatically means they’re copying DC, m’kay. I suppose suicide squad is “copying” GOTG by that logic then.

I think the person was joking….

I don’t think the Russos know what dark is. Sure, the movie might have some edge to it, but dark? Violent? Feige and Disney won’t allow it.
Vulpini
From D23, I heard they’ll be some humor in it. The scene where they all fight, Hawkeye and Black Widow were like “We’re still friends, right?” in a jokey way. While the other teammates are almost killing each other.

And they beat Ultron, in the worst possible way. Ultron singing and making a joke about it when Hulk got on his plane.. and then they beat him. Sigh..
jondoe297
Ultron sang? Did he really? AoU was so unremarkable, I forgot. Only remembered how the ultron drones started running away from the avengers near the end. I mean really? Robots expressing fear? Very cartoonish. Not gonna watch it again anyway.

LOL “dark.” If they mean dark times for making good movies, they’ll possibly never stoop as far into the toilet than they have already. But hey, they’re promising us even more shitty cgi crap. Might as well make these movies 100% cartoon to save some money rather than 99% cartoon. Shitsney would probably be that cheap after Robert Dummy Junkie expires on set, needle in arm and all.
