Chapter 602: Civil War
Not long after Firefly officially announced that there would be Daewoo superheroes before the end of the third phase of the Marvel universe, Marvel's thirteenth superhero movie "Captain America 3: Civil War" was officially released.
Before this, Marvel fans already knew that there would be Team America 3.
No matter how well the official secrecy is done, there is no impermeable wall in the world.
Many people will be involved in various stages such as the preparation and filming of Marvel movies, and they will naturally be discovered by the media during filming.
It's just that the media doesn't know much about it.
For example, when "Ant-Man" was filmed, it was also caught by the media.
But the media themselves are not sure if it is a Marvel Universe movie, and it is impossible to know the name of the movie, until the official announcement, everyone does not know.
Team America 3 began to do publicity, and Marvel fans cheered.
There are too many false and reversed news on the Internet, and the official announcement of Firefly City is the ultimate fact.
Although it is not a superhero from Daewoo, Daewoo fans still happily ran to the theater to watch Team America 3.
Team America 3 tells the story of the Avengers who are still united to protect humanity after Ultron has made a huge impact on the world.
But behind some of the political wrangling, the government sees the need to rein in the superheroes' superpowers and their actions.
As a result, a control measure was introduced.
This measure is to require the Avengers to accept the management of the government and act according to the requirements of the government.
In other words, in the future, the development, process and end of the tasks of superheroes will be led by the government.
As soon as this control measure came out, it caused great controversy among the Avengers.
The most extreme and polarized opinion is the problem between Iron Man and Captain America, and the contradiction between the two allies erupts.
This is a Marvel movie that so far, in terms of quality and reputation, in the Marvel universe, if "American Team 3" wants to win the first place, it is estimated that it will be supported by many people.
It allows the audience to see that the superhero movies of the Marvel Universe can also dive into the theme while taking into account the entertainment business.
At the beginning of the film, it is the plot of the Winter Soldier Soldier, who goes on a secret mission.
Then after undertaking the plot of "Avengers 2", the Avengers team led by the American team carried out a mission in a city in Lagos, South Africa.
In this mission, the crossband suicide explosion is caused by too much nonsense between the American team and the villain Crossbone.
In order to protect the people on the ground, Scarlet throws the cross bone into the air, but inadvertently blows up the people on the floor.
The first act of the film is a motivational event, and the misjudgment of Team America and Scarlet sets the tone for the real and heavy theme of the whole movie.
This incident, also known as the tram problem, probably means that when you see a person tied to the rails, you can save that person by changing the tram tracks, but the change of tracks will cause the people on the train to derail and die.
In layman's terms, it is a question of who you choose to save when your wife and mother jump into the water.
The film follows a realistic style, focusing on every person, every life, and amplifying the meaning and responsibility of the Avengers in reality, rather than simply letting superheroes do whatever they want in this world.
On the other hand, Tony builds a virtual reality to take him back to the age of 18, spend time with his parents that didn't happen, and donate to some college students with ideas and creativity.
Tony, who goes backstage, is questioned by a mother about the meaning of the Avengers' existence because her son died in the Battle of Sokovia in "Avengers 2".
She said a word, hitting the responsibility that the Avengers will face.
The mother said, you think you are fighting for us (the people), but in fact you are fighting for yourself, you murdered him, so who avenges my child.
For a time, the two major C-position Iron Man and Captain America in the Marvel Universe were facing the torture of the Battle of Sokovia.
At this time, a Sokovia Agreement was put before the Avengers for the purpose of the state management to take over the Avengers members.
Avengers are subject to supervision, and then the actions of the Avengers must be approved by the United Nations, otherwise they will be considered illegal.
The film is only 25 minutes long, and it comes to the third profound discussion point, safety and freedom, ability and responsibility, which are forced in front of the Avengers members, forcing them to choose one of the two.
This is also a topic that is often unavoidable in real society, everyone originally thought that they were free, but freedom has always been relative, including superheroes.
Every superhero understands that with great power comes great responsibility, but behind the responsibility of ability, the price to pay is freedom and security.
There is no right or wrong in the Sokovia Agreement, not even pros and cons, it is only a choice of positions and opinions.
The American team chose to reject this agreement, and the audience who followed Marvel works all the way to understand the American team's choice.
He used to believe in management so much and gave his life for it, but when he woke up, the values and morals of the world were far from the same.
What's more, S.H.I.E.L.D., which he has always believed in, has become a lair of Hydra in "Team America 2".
In the end, he realized that institutions are made up of people, and when there are more people and higher buildings, there will inevitably be shadows, and at this time, it is better to believe in yourself, you are the embodiment of justice.
As for Tony, after the "Iron Man" series, his Stark industrial weapon crippled his body at the beginning, and then in "Iron Man 3", he planted the villain bane, and finally in "Avengers 2", he directly created a villain.
He deeply understands that it was precisely because of his conceit, arrogance, and self-righteousness that he caused disasters again and again.
This is just like Vision's summary of Tony, Vision's statement that our superpowers bring challenges, challenges spark conflict, and conflicts lead to disaster.
So Tony supports himself being supervised, and at the same time he wants to use his identity as a past person to warn the members of the Avengers that they need supervision.
Soon the Sokovia Agreement was to be signed in Vienna, but a terrorist attack occurred, killing Black Panther's father on the spot, and also introducing a new black superhero, Black Panther.
The person responsible for this terrorist attack is Bucky, a good friend of the American team.
While the U.S. team did not sign the "Sokovia Agreement", they had to take separate actions to find Bucky, which was almost tantamount to knowingly committing a crime, accompanied by a good friend Falcon.
In his quest to find Bucky, the Black Panther makes his first appearance, where he wants to kill Bucky and avenge his father.
After creating a street chaos, the American team and others were brought under control.
Also secretly controlled is the Scarlet Witch, who was placed under house arrest by Tony's vision vision.
After everyone returned to the game, Tony wanted to take this opportunity to have a showdown with the American team and let the American team sign an agreement, but it didn't work out after all, and the American team and Tony parted ways.
At this time, the villain secretly infiltrates and recites a spell on Bucky, who turns into a Winter Soldier and causes trouble.
After Bucky's drug was over, Bucky and the American team told the truth, he went on a mission and got the blue serum, and Hydra used the blue serum to transform many Winter Soldier soldiers.
So Team America has to stop the villain from activating the sleeping Winter Soldier, while Tony has to arrest the criminal Team America and force him to continue signing the agreement.
The two superhero leaders begin to assemble their own teams, and Tony goes to find Peter Spider-Man.
On the side of the American team, Ant-Man was found, and at the same time, the American team successfully picked up the niece of his ex-girlfriend, which was a bit exciting.
After the success of the team, the two waves of superheroes, led by Iron Man and Team America, showed the most exciting superhero battle so far in the Marvel Universe.
Airport fights are completely textbook-level, and the skills of each superhero are fully displayed in the fights.
The distribution of superhero characters on both sides is also very exquisite.
Iron Man and Team America are the center of each other, as serious fighting characters, Scarlet and Vision are ambiguous objects, and Black Widow and Hawkeye exist as old friends.
Shake the burden and make jokes, and give it to Ant-Man and Spider-Man.
In this fight, the illusion is distracted by love, and accidentally hits the war machine.
Tony learned from his AI assistant Friday's investigation that there was really such a villain, and there was also a Bucky's face, and everyone was stolen, and after knowing the truth, Tony also decided to put aside the agreement and act alone.
At this point, Tony and the American team finally stood aside on the surface, and the "Sokovia Agreement" became a paper talk.
The film has developed to this point, if Iron Man and Team America join forces to defeat the villain together, "Captain America 3" can only be regarded as a high-quality commercial blockbuster.
But what made "American Team 3" sit in the palace of word-of-mouth was the film's decisive battle, which still reversed the contradiction between Iron Man and the American team.
After Iron Man arrives at his destination, he enters with Team America and Bucky, and finds that the Winter Soldier soldiers are all dead.
But a video of Bucky on a mission that year made Tony and the American team really break up.
It turns out that Bucky was on a secret mission that year, and the people who killed him were Tony's parents.
Revenge and hatred make Tony unable to calm down, and the fight between Tony and Bucky of the American team will inevitably become an irreversible conflict.
Iron Man and Team America, the two who once led the Avengers to save the world many times, are now fighting each other.
This is also just as the villain said, to bring down the Avengers, you must start to fall apart from the inside, such a clever design, obviously let no matter how rational people are, will let sensibility prevail.
In the end, Iron Man, who couldn't bear to be a killer, was countered by the American team and Bucky.
The American team did not kill Iron Man either, but Iron Man defeated the American team again with words.
Iron Man tells Team America that he doesn't deserve a shield because it was designed and built by his father.
The American team throws down their shields and leaves with Bucky.
The same throwing down the shield also happened in "American Team 2", in the end of both works, the American team threw down the shield, both made the American team win on the surface, but both ended in tragedy.
In superhero movies, it is actually easy to maximize the conflict and contradiction, because the earth is destroyed, so to save the world, this conflict is very large, but the cultivation of movie-watching habits has made such a contradiction a third-rate contradictory conflict.
The high-level thing about "American Team 3" is that the ending climax is returned to the superhero, not in the third-rate conflict to save the world, and the end of "American Team 3" is to save the superheroes themselves and redeem their own souls.
It is precisely because of the break between Team America and Iron Man that they fought separately in "Avengers 3".
The belated Black Panther witnessed all this, and he originally wanted to avenge his father's death, but he chose to let it go.
The portrayal of the villain in the film is not sloppy, he is not a black and white villain, and even the villain does not exist in the film at all.
The villain is just an ordinary little man who takes revenge for his hometown of Sokovia and his family.
In the end, he didn't build a nuclear bomb to blow up the city, nor did he activate the Winter Soldier and the Iron Man team to fight each other, but put the problem in front of them and let them choose between forgiveness or revenge.
In addition, the film is also very interesting about the transformation of Iron Man, after the airport battle, Tony knew that it was Black Widow who let go of the American team, and Tony used the black history of Black Widow double agent to ridicule Black Widow.
Black Widow said, you can't let go of your ego, even for a second.
Yes, Tony realizes that his abilities are too dangerous and needs to be supervised, but he can't represent everyone, and he doesn't even have the right to put Scarlet under house arrest.
Tony is still Tony, and he still wants to impose his ideas on others, just as he decided that Ultron was right to give birth to, just like when his parents were killed, he decided that he must kill the murderer.
So "Team America 3" also elaborated on a topic, superheroes are also people, and they also have very deadly, and they themselves can't see shortcomings.
In the past, there were no independent film critics in many countries, and many film reviews were published by the producer or the producer's royal publicity company, which naturally had no credibility.
Under the mode of the producer paying for the transportation and horse expenses of the media reporters, how many profound and unique film reviews can the reporters write without being affected by external forces?
In the past, film critics relied on the pitiful manuscript fees of traditional media, and I am afraid that they could not even buy movie tickets, how to be "independent" and how to "trust"?
Now, there are more and more independent film critics, and there is no need for a water army, and the reputation of American Team 3 will soon ferment and explode.
