    I'm really shocked that they decided to release it now. I'm guessing they wanted to get the jump on X-Men: Apocalypse, but that trailer's not coming out until Star Wars, & that's a few weeks away. I think they should've waited until next week or the one after, & paired it w/ Agents of SHIELD. But I guess that's the marketing equivalent of "preaching to the choir".

    2016 is going to be smurfing awesome in comic book movies. Iron Man versus Captain America, Batman versus Superman, X-Men versus Apocalypse. I can't wait!

    It looks great. Bucky and Cap beating up on Iron Man...wow.

    I recently read the Civil War comic and the concept was interesting but I felt it was poorly written. Hopefully it works out better on the big screen but if it doesn't, at least we'll get some great battles.

    I hate that Cap and Iron Man are fighting against each other.

    I hate more that May is so far away.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Some say he's jumping on a car at one part of the trailer, but I haven't taken the time to look. They probably won't show him until we're closer to release.

    My body is very much ready. I'm hoping for this to be the truly great 'Avengers' sequel we were denied in 'Age of Ultron'.

    There's something I'm wondering about, although I'm happy to keep wondering until the movie actually comes out. The trailer implies that Bucky is the main reason for Rogers turning against Stark and the campaign for public oversight of superheroes. I'd like to think, though, that Stark is at least partly motivated by guilt or remorse: in 'Age of Ultron', thousands of people died as a result of him dicking around with powers beyond his comprehension, without accountability or oversight. I'm hoping this'll be at least a partial motivation for him in 'Civil War', and that it's been left out of the trailer because (1) ain't no trailer got time for that, and (2) they don't want to remind us too much of the last 'Avengers' outing.

    Either way, I'm really looking forward to 'Civil War', and I'm hoping for a truly worthy successor to 'The Winter Soldier', which I consider one of the very best superhero films of all, as well as an outstanding action movie and espionage flick in its own right.

    Tony Stark is rich, of course he doesn't have accountability.

    Am I the only one who sympathises with Iron Man's apparent position?

    Is it so unreasonable for superheroes to be held accountable for their actions, and to have official oversight? Seems like a good idea to me. I mean, I trust MI5, the police and the army in broad terms, but that doesn't mean that I want them to run unchecked.

    I'm sure it will turn out that the regulation people are evil, because Captain America's the good guy and it's his film, blah, blah, blah... So predictable.
