Yeah, the absence of Scarlet Witch is interesting. Yes, the movie is stuffed with characters already, but she was announced as being in it (unlike Banner/Hulk and Thor, who have been said to not be in this).
I hope they don't do something stupid to her at the start of the film.
If spiderman is in the film - hopefully someone blows his head off in the opening sequence
Absolutely Hate that character...........
House of M was really good - much prefered it to the normal stuff and it had Illyana kicking ass

Pretty sure that won't happen. He's part of the MCU now, and still reigns as Marvel's most popular character. You don't have to like him (I don't!), but you are going to have to accept him.

I'm excited to see how the MU version compares - I've got high....hopes for him!
Let's just hope Civil War isn't a fall at the last hurdle movie. A lot of trilogies suffer from that.
Can't see happening to be honest. It's in great hands in the directorial department with the Russo brothers, all the scale of a full on Avengers film, and Marvel have been on a great run of form since Thor 2 that doesn't look to be stopping any time soon!
The biggest challenge CW is facing is the otherversion, the one with Superman and Batman in! Which in all honesty I'm more excited for. Marvel is, to a certain extent, a known quantity, whereas BvsS is a door into a whole new setting, and following a film that I at least rate as highly as anything Marvel.
But there's no need to pick sides. When we've got Captain America vs Iron Man in the same year as Batman vs Superman, my plan is just to sit back and enjoy what could be two of the coolest films ever!
Latino Review claims Captain America: Civil War will feature a riff on one of the comic book series’ more design-conscious choices: the Iron Spider armor.
You may recall in Civil War, Tony Stark gave Peter Parker new threads in the form an Iron Man-color coded suit of armor. Dubbed the “Iron Spider” and kitted with Stark technology, the web-crawler used it while he backed Tony during the event that split the Marvel universe in two. According to the rumor, the Iron Spider armor will not be featured in the film, but Stark will still outfit Peter with an essential piece of gear.
Spoiler Warning for your protection.
According to the report, “Stark will be the one responsible for creating Spidey’s web shooters.” As seen elsewhere, Parker’s initial Spider-Man costume will be more off-the-shelf and what Latino Review calls “things a teenager has access to.” Earlier reports also suggested Stark may offer the teen hero the more traditional Spidey costume. It was unclear if the costume would include the web shooters, however.
Originally a creation of Parker’s love for science, screen version of Spider-Man change the origin of the web shooters. In the Sam Raimi series, a genetic mutation caused Peter to grow organic web shooters while the two Amazing Spider-Man films made the webbing a collaboration of Peter and his father, with the younger Parker utilizing notes the elder left behind in a briefcase.
If true, it makes sense that Tony would be behind the technology, as any gear not derived from the Kree ends up being a Stark design, much to the consternation of Hank Pym. At the same time, Peter’s science background is one of the more interesting things about him. Figuring out a piece of gear like the web shooters would set him apart in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
.. I'd be alright that really.
It's only a small change and that aspect of spidey's life always bugged me somewhat.
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.

Well, the teaser at the end of Ant-man clearly showed Falcon, Capt, and Winter all working together and implying that they were going to bring in Ant-man on their side.

I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that laws were set in place after Tony made a homicidal AI that almost wiped out the planet. I imagine between his tears over Cap, his guilt over making Ultron, and PTSD from the first Avengers film that it isn't a shock that he is all for registering super humans, or in this case it seems to be bringing in Bucky, dead or alive.

Edit: Will the Black Panther film be out before this one?
Everyone knows Cap is the best Avenger.
BP comes out after this, I think it's the back end of 2017 but the announcement for Ant Man 2 shuffled things forward/back a bit.
I'm a big Cap fan, but I'd prefer some Cap films that aren't Avengers X.5. Also, Civil War wasn't that great of a storyline, but maybe the ultra-Cliff Notes version will work better than the super-bloated version.
I dunno...after the last Avengers film I'm a lot less interested in this one and the rest of the MCU.

I get that Gorgon but at the same time I feel like Cap, more than anyone in MCU currently, is a leader. A big part of his Character is leading and inspiring. So it's much harder to make stand alones without other heroes around in my opinion with him.
That said Avengers 2, while good for me, wasn't as fun as the first avengers. Still a fun, just not as good as their other offerings of late.

Tony has always been about protecting people from power left unchecked after he was a victim of his own weapons. So he created the Iron Man suit as a means to protect people from those powers. This, unfortunately, created a different type of arms race and one Tony has a hard time dealing with. He slowly became what he didn't want to be, a weapon. So he created Ultron to aid in his tasks, hopefully take over for him. This failed because it worked too well and Ultron tried to eliminate everyone. Now, Tony knows all of this before has been in error, but the registration would keep powers in check. As long as he is a part of it, he can keep it from becoming ugly. Not everyone is going to agree with Tony because Tony doesn't have a good track record for keeping things from getting ugly.
Maybe it is PTSD. But if it is, he has had it since IM1 and has been frantically trying to save people with one drastic action after another...all of which has always had the best intentions behind it, just heavy handed in the execution.
So, yes, this is the next logical step for Tony because this is what he has been trying to do all along, keep powers in check.

Man, I was feeling kinda bummed with all the Marvel stuff coming out, feeling like it was too much....
but this looks cool.
Still think Thor should have came out before Cap3. 3 films in a row about "Science" super heroes and urban fighting. I think Thor should have came out before cap 3.

Given they've never made a Cap film that is Avengers X.5, and that this has a real Winter Soldier vibe to it, we should be fine.

Civil War was a bad story because Cap was clearly right and Stark was clearly wrong... and then Stark became a super-villain with inter-dimensional prison and brain-boxed villains and all sorts of other nonsense. That ain't happenin' here, and that's a good thing.
IIRC in the comic the original idea was to put Cap on the wrong side of something or have both sides be equally valid but audiences weren't happy with that so they went the route of the scrappy underdogs fighting for right. Or something like that.
Maybe it is PTSD
In Iron Man 3 they pretty much are explicit on this point.
