Technically, anyone can have a “civil war.” I get that. There were places and people having them long before America’s kicked off in 1861—and yet? The American Civil War still hangs heavy over current political and race relations (oh, hello, Mississippi state flag), which is why I’m not all that comfortable tossing the term around so loosely. After all, they’re not making movies called Captain America: Trail of Tears. [End of rant.]
[Not quite end of rant.] Actually, instead of Captain America: Civil War, a more appropriate title might be Captain America: Cap and Iron Man Get Their Iddy-Biddy Feewings Hurt. Yes, I agree that’s a mouthful. [End of rant for realz… or is it?]
In fact, if you want to get super technical about it, Captain America: Civil War isn’t so much a Captain America movie as the third flick in the Avengers series.
