Guys I think we can start getting excited about Black Panther!

So that's Lupita Nyong'o, Michael B Jordan and BP himself, Chadwick Boseman, quite the cast they're gathering. Add the Creed director, and unconfirmed rumours of Martin Freeman and Andy Serkis and we might have a hell of a movie on our hands. All they need to do now is cast Morgan Freeman as a native witch doctor

Kaycee7:
Just downloaded Civil War. Can't wait to dismiss and watch it.

You're in for a ride

Shittaakeem:
The guy was hilarious
Black panther is something else is accent
Hawkeye : we haven't met yet I'm klint
BP : I don't care

BP was awesome bro
My best line in the movie "The living are not done with you"

We saw this coming but it's still sad news
Agent Carter has been cancelled by ABC
So Peggy is officially dead in the MCU.... Bring our yer hankies

SIRcumalot:
we never wanted him anyway.
na so AvB start.

Hehe if I honestly offered you a choice between LVG & Poch who'd you take? Fergie obviously likes him but too bad he's staying with us. About AVB, he's a good coach still, just didn't work out with us.

Leaked kit for the 16/17 season

Me no likey

Thoughts?

@ SpursOfficial BREAKING: Mauricio has signed a contract extension committing his future to the Club as Manager until 2021.

Best news of the transfer window! Sorry Manchester United, you're gonna have to stick with LVG

colossus2:
We need a striker or 2.
Someone in the mold of Aubameyang.
I hope we sign a good dribbler who is pacey and strong, more like a pacey and energetic Lamela. Chadli can never dribble a defender succesfully

It'll be hard to get a top striker like Aubameyang, can't see us benching Kane and someone like that won't want to be benched either. Maybe an up and coming striker? The problem is they'll be too expensive

SIRcumalot:
Nothing so graphic
The very first time I started watching football for myself and not something the males in neighborhood do,
I saw an highlight of a game on DBN were This Red team was scoring for fun against a yellow one.
So I picked the red one. Later learnt that was Utd.

Lol did you ever discover the identity of the yellow team?

colossus2:
Welcome on board Bro. #COS

Thanks bro

It's little stuff like this that make me love Tottenham

SIRcumalot:
a spurs fan!!
something must have happened to make you support this team where you violated by a man wearing a gunners Jersey?

Lmao. Rather boring story actually, had a couple of friends who support Spurs, they made me watch their matches. Then Spurs had Modric and Van Der Vaart, Lennon at his peak, Crouch doing Crouchy things and Palacios breaking men's legs. Those were fun times, it was easy to fall in love with good sexy football , before the dark days of AVB and Tactics Tim. Some of my best memories are of Crouch scoring the winner at the Etihad and Bale's one man demolition of Maicon

Now I'd like to hear the trauma you suffered that made you support United

Minemrys:
o boi, they quick pirate this film o. Shege! They want spoil MCU market o.

Na dem sabi. I don already watch am for cinema so I've contributed my own. Now I can download with a clean conscience

Seeing as we qualified for UCL, what positions do you see us strengening? More specifically what ins and outs do you want to see in this transfer window?

I think we need a backup striker to take the load off Kane, that's obvious. A backup CDM to Dier because he's got no replacement and a backup to Alderweireld.

Outs: Carroll, Fazio, Chadli?, Bentaleb?, Vorm?, Njie?

Ins: Dream Signings - Embolo, Tielemans, Joao Mario, Umtiti, Perin

Realistic Signings - Dembele, Batshuayi,

What do you guys think?

Minemrys:
wait where's the clear versi0n of civil war?

Just Vista the thread Elparaiso linked. There are multiple links there with clear dvd like quality

How on earth am I just discovering this thread?? Been keeping away from the sports section before now cos there's no Spurs fans to discuss with.

So glad! Followed. COYS!!

I love the article in the Economist about Civil War. Never thought I'd see the day a serious paper like this would write a piece about a fictionalised world like the MCU


The Avengers Should Agree to be placed under UN Supervision


Humans and superhumans alike function better with laws and institutions
May 10th 2016


EVEN for superpowers, the use of force has unintended consequences. Over the past two decades America
has learned this the hard way. Its military interventions in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya have caused devastating collateral damage. Worse, America often finds itself fighting enemies radicalised or empowered by the blowback from its own interventions. As a result, in recent years it has tried to adopt a less "kinetic" foreign policy, focused on defending a rule-bound international order.


The Avengers, a superhero organisation, have encountered many of the same problems. But they have been
slower to learn the lessons. Last year Tony Stark, the billionaire military industrialist and inventor also
known as Iron Man, attempted to create an automated international peacekeeping system. His well-meaning efforts led to the horrifying destruction of the Sokovian capital, Novi Grad, after the device generated an artificial intelligence bent on wiping out the human race. The tragedy this spring in Lagos... SPOILERS............, was a further reminder of the dangers of allowing non-state actors with superhuman powers to enforce their own vision of international justice.


So the Sokovia Accords, under which the Avengers have agreed to accept the supervision of a UN panel, mark a major step forward. Indeed, many countries appear more eager to limit the activities of The HULK than to limit carbon emissions. Whether the accords can be ratified in America’s divided Senate remains uncertain. But the more troubling split is the one between the Avengers themselves. While Mr Stark advocates that the group sign the accords, Mr Rogers refuses.

Institutional constraints on superhero activity have been controversial ever since 1977, when America’s
Keene Act took up the question of who would watch the Watchmen. The X-Men faced severe discrimination
under the Mutant Registration Act, and the Incredibles long chafed under the oversight of the National Supers Agency. Last year Batman and Superman came to blows over similar issues of accountability.

Superheroes, like most elites, are instinctively hostile to regulation, and Mr Rogers’ leeriness is exacerbated
by his deep-rooted cultural nationalism. It is hardly surprising that a superhero named Captain America would be allergic to what George Washington called "foreign entanglements". Moreover, Mr Rogers has a point when he argues that the UN is a politicised body that may bicker over granting permission to intervene until it is too late. Rivalry between UN members has paralysed the international community during bloody crises from Bosnia to Syria.

The question, however, is whether superheroes or superpowers do better without such constraints. In fact,
they do worse. As America learned in Iraq, and as Mr Stark learned in Sokovia, people without procedural oversight are apt to be led disastrously astray by their own biases. Mr Rogers’ mistrust of institutions, like that of the leaders who launched the Iraq war, is linked to a hubristic faith in his own moral righteousness: he believes that the world is divided into good guys and bad guys, and that he knows who is who.


In real life, nothing is so simple. No one ever has perfect information, different people may have legitimate but
conflicting claims to justice, and no one’s motives are entirely transparent, even to themselves. It is because of the imperfection of humans (and superhumans) that we need laws and institutions. As Captain America should know, this recognition lies at the heart of his country’s political philosophy: to paraphrase Madison, “If superheroes were angels, no government would be necessary.” The Avengers are no angels. They should accept the Sokovia Accords.

Avengers Infinity War Teaser by cast of Civil War

Mizzzbeee:
Obixcel pls drop the link for civil war

Here you go

Minemrys:
the m0re u guys talk about this film, the m0re i get excited. Can s0me0ne tell me in one word how the m0vie is? I read the plot but didn't like the way it was though.

In one word Civil War is...tight. The plot, action and pace are all tight. It doesn't feel like a 2 hours + movie at all

rapmike:
No, what am saying is that a building like the UN headquarters is very secured and strategic placed. Not in a market place. thats just annoying.
Then they atrated focusing on the market too much. maybe its the clip( cus I have not watched the film) but it seems uncalled for.

The building is not the United Nations building, it's something else. Like I said revealing too much would constitute a spoiler. Just chill till you watch the movie. There's a pretty clear version out already if you don't want to wait for the Blu-ray

Minemrys:
0ne thing i love about marvel is that, they got their own studio with great creative c0ntr0l with disney only funding but DC? Their only creative c0ntrol they have is in animati0n. When it c0mes to m0vies, WB wants to put hands. They just d0n't care but the m0ney but dc'll get there s0on.

True that, though DC tends to give their directors more creative freedom than Marvel. It can backfire like it did with Snyder but when it works, it is beautiful - see Nolan's Batman trilogy. Let's see how Wonder Woman and Suicide Squad perform

Minemrys:
Am jealous of the MCU. Wish the DCEU would have m0re success. Could officially bec0me a marvel fan...but

DCEU is just starting, success will come in time. Besides who said you can't be a fan of both Marvel and DC?

SIRcumalot:
I no play favourites
when una drop a new movie I go shows as I was there for BvS.


@all
is it true that scarlet witch and quicksilver got their powers from Loki staff ?

Yea it's clearly explained in Age of Ultron. They even mentioned it again in Civil War. In the comics they got their powers cos they were mutants/X-men. Since they don't have the movie rights to X-men they used the Infinity stone in Loki's sceptre to explain their powers, the same stone that's in Vision's forehead. You remember what happened in Civil War between Vision and *****, makes more sense now eh

Raalsalghul:
Marvel's minions kissing each other's asses
13 films and only 35 pages of chatting
Come to the D.C thread and grove with the real fan boys
2 films and over 60 pages
It shows the interest you all have in our properties
[/b]Trolling 101[b]

Hehe when over 30 pages were about marvel or about how BvS sucked or "sack snyder"?

I think I'll pass

Kaycee7:
@ bolded. Civil War has never been a reaction to BvS. Marvel has a definite schedule lined up to 2023 or 2028, I can't place which right now. It's like saying Infinity War is a reaction to Justice League that does not even have a complete cast yet.

He's kinda right about that. The Russos said in an interview that although they already made plans to make Civil War before BvS, those plans only got approved after BvS was announced. So while calling it a reaction might be incorrect you can't deny that it pushed it forward. Anyway it's not about who did it first, it's about who did it best, and there is no contest there

Lmao parrotibaba why are you doing this? Let the past die a peaceful death abeg

I don't even know what to say to those that read plot synopsis online and are coming to talk. When I watched BvS I did so with an open mind, it makes me sad to see the opposite. Thankfully Civil War is so good that I have no need to defend it. The movie speaks for itself, all I have to do is watch it. That's all. Forget review or online plot breakdown, go and watch it and come back to tell me that it was a "Street brawl" or had "no stakes".

@Sircumalot Bucky was seriously badass. The only time that happened was that *****scene and that's cos it was a ***** mission. He looked way more dangerous than Cap at times, truly terrifying. Bucky was my favourite part about this movie

Antman! Pure gold. Every line out of his mouth was so natural that I refuse to believe they scripted his lines. I believe the Russos just told Paul Rudd to freestyle it cos that's how he works. Vision trying to be ****** was hilarious. I was curious about how they'd handle such an OP character but they crushed it. He was humanized in a big way. Remember when the lists for Team Cap and Team Iron Man were released and we thought Team Cap looked underpowered? Lol we know nothing

The Cap stuff I saw coming a mile away. Was less cringey than I expected probably cos they did it well without making it look forced. Also love the look ****** and ***** gave him. Think we might have a new meme!

Tony Stark's acting was so real, best perfomance since Iron Man. He really carries the MCU, I'll be sad when he retires. Best casting marvel has ever done and that's the ng a lot considering how good they are at picking the right people

Thinking more about it Zemo is still my favourite marvel villain. I'll wait for the others to watch it and judge but he's the only villain I can think of whose plan actually worked, and when you compare that to where he came from and who he is, amazing. Also I like the fact that he didn't do that annoying thing villains usually do, preach and talk plenty philosophy about why the world needs to be destroyed and why I am such an evil mastermind. No, just a focused sonafabitch with purpose who carried out his plan. I'll say it again, Loki and Zemo uniting with Thanos would be awesome

rapmike:
Thanks for this short clip. That was the worst depiction of anywhere in Nigeria since Wolverine Origins. Whats the idea of the market that was been shown three quarters of the time of the report? Isn't the attack not in the WHO headquarters abi UN headquarters? Can't they browse out the real HQ in Abuja and see that markets are not nearby? and the pronunciation of Lagos, Good God! Someone has to answer for that in marvel.

No it's pretty accurate actually. I don't want to post spoilers but it has nothing to do with the UN building in Abuja. Watch it and you'll understand. The markets are just close to the site of the bombing, and they routinely pronounce Lagos that way, like a Portuguese port city instead of an African one. Frustrating I know but even Call of Duty had the same issue. I don't think anybody is answering for this anytime soon

cao:
I had no issue with the film's score. I had issue with the fake Lagos and its bad pronunciation.

My mistake. I honestly couldn't identify the locations in Lagos. They probably filmed it in the studio and used cgi to fill the rest in. About the pronunciation I've heard it butchered so many times on CNN it doesn't move me. Only guys I know that get it right are the British, at least on BBC they try

Some quick thoughts:

- Bucky. Surprisingly Bucky ended up as my favorite hero in this film. Close behind was Black Panther, then Cap. Can Marvel please make a Black Widow & Bucky movie? I would watch the hell out of that

- I changed sides so many times. I was first Team Cap, then I switched to Team Iron Man and back again. This for me was their biggest achievement. In the comics Cap was so obviously right and Tony such a dousche that you really had no problem siding with Cap, but here it's more balanced. Bravo

-Spider-Man! Perfection. The chemistry between he and Aunt May is so great, also that between he and Tony. Thank goodness his movie is coming out next year. Only prayer is they don't show us the death of Uncle Ben again, seen it enough along with the death of Bruce Wayne's parents to last me a lifetime

-T'challa! Accent on point! Fighting style on point! Carriage and bearing on point! Hail to the king!

-Like I said I loved Zemo. His motivation was clear and his plan made sense, though if he weren't in the movie not much would have changed. That's why I feel they're setting him up to be an awesome future villain. This movie just felt like his audition

- I loved the score! Maybe something is wrong with me cos cao complained but I couldn't find anything wrong with it



-This trilogy was perfect, each sequel was better than the last.

cao:
See, y'all enjoyed it for yourselves...

Asin! So much fun. Wish I could skip forward in time so I could watch all the upcoming MCU movies
