The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

At this point, I don't think it's an understatement to say a) that this is the most excited I've ever been about a film and b) this could well be the best film ever made.
Damn I was then about to post this! was searching the threads just to make sure one hadn't been previously made! reds8n you broke my heart
I cannot wait for this, good to see that Tony created A.I which became Ultron, had a bet on that with a friend so hello easy money, I cannot wait for this film, I've been hyped since the first trailer but right now I feel like I'm going to wee a tad from excitement...
That Power Rangers gif if as awesome shot, but if you look closely it almost looks like the Captain is riding Iron man when he comes onto screen and the hulk breaks the first rule of filming almost, never look directly at the camera!!!

I liked the this much better than the previous one.
Positive:
Glad there wasn't any of that SPOOKY PINOCCHIO stuff that was making my eyes roll out of my sockets with the last two. Looks like they gave Stock Female Character #4 some fancy high-tech weapons, so maybe she and the other lower-power heroes will feel less out of place in this one. I like a lot of the new visual design such as the villain, the big Iron Man Armor, whatever that wispy-power was.
Negative I'm a bit worried about being introduced to two new characters for the first time in a big team outing. The trailer is still making this one look a fair bit "darker grittier", which would be a huge deal breaker for me. Some of the action shots look a bit awkward.

Yes, that's are first look at Vision (besides a few promotional stills).

You're not the first person I've seen saying it looks like he's riding on Iron Man's back. Odd angle.
Oh, and if Hulk wants to look at the camera, Hulk can look at the camera. Are you going to tell him not to? Hulk does what Hulk wants!

You think Widow is a "stock female character"? Oh give me a break...

I find it quite funny, it almost looks like the motorbike handle bars and coming out of Iron Man, probably only noticed it as the clip was playing over and over and i got lost in it picking out all the details
Also, to that hulk thing? I'd reckon I'd give it a go, don't reckon it'd get me far by ooooooh weeeeeeell

I love the Hulk and I love the fact that he and an Hulkbuster-clad Iron Man fight each other... but the thing I'm looking forward to the most is the debut of the Vision. He's been one of my favorite characters since grade school.

In the comics, it happens all the time, sometimes of his own will (World War Hulk, he picks a fight with just about everyone for very legitimate reasons), sometimes outside influences (such as Loki setting him on The Avengers in Issue 1, and then the film).
In this case, I'm going to say it's Scarlet Witch mind-controlling him, or Ultron hijacking the suit.
That, or Banner conciously turns on Stark. I think it's pretty clear some blame is going to be going Stark's way for the whole 'oh, crap, I built Ultron' thing, we already have shots ofThor about to choke him, what if Stark does something so stupid/arrogant/careless that Banner decides he needs some sense beaten into him? Avengers 1 proves he can control the transformations for the most part, so it could well be concious.
Oh hey, there's a line setting up Tony supporting Registration.
Hooray, Tony gets to be the "villain" again. [/sarcastic dead pan]

This looks so good. I'm really excited for this. Doesn't hurt that I like the people they got to play the witch and quicksilver and that i love the dude playing Vision.

And? Of course he's the 'villain' in supporting the SHRA, anything else would be a somewhat pointless change, and defeat the purpse of 'Civil War'. Tony builds Ultron, gets a lot of people killed, realised he's made a mistake and reacts by supporting the SHRA to ensure neither he nor anyone can do anything like that again and not be held accountable. Makes perfect sense to me.

Tony supporting the SHRA isn't what I meant as him being the "villain", It was all the BS Marvel did to portray him as a mustache twriling baddie willing to do anything to get it passed and enforce it and that supporting the SHRA was somehow the "wrong" choice that comic readers were supposed to be against.

Cap/Iron Man had one in Avengers during the climatic battle in The Avengers that tightened my pants a little. It reminded me of playing Ultimate Alliance on xBox.

Apparently there are some AMC theaters in the states that are running 23'ish hour marathons of every MCU movie leading up to this one. Can't say I'd want to try to enjoy AoU after being awake that long (even with cat naps during movies I'm not quite as into), but I think I'll start up a little re-watch over the next month and a half of my own.
It'd also be nice if local theaters would get around to making tickets available. I don't care if it's not always in their control, some I can get two months in advance, sometimes it's barely a week before a blockbuster drops, and it'd be nice to snag a bunch for my friends at one of the VIP screens in the area.
But yeah, these trailers are incredible. Absolutely can't wait to see this.

23 hours is a bit much even for me (proud completer of a Hobbit Marathon when BotFA came out), but I certainly think a Phase-2-Athon is doable, especially cutting Iron Man 3 from the equation. Start with Avengers, Thor 2, Cap 2, Guardians just because and then AoU.

That was a problem in Avengers, I thought. He's a raging monster, he's a demigod, he's got super armor, he's got super strength and reflexes, and she's.... got a glock.
I like Black Widow in general, and I like ScarJo a lot as her, but there is a definite power imbalance in that lineup. She worked really well in that last Captain America movie but I don't think she scales up very well.
Hawkeye has the same problem, but at least he has that deus ex arrow thing going.
