Captain America: Civil War

I SAW CIVIL WAR YOU GUYS

I AM SO RELIEVED. SO SO SO RELIEVED

I don’t think I’ve talked about it much here? But I have basically been freaking out about what would happen with Natasha for six months. More, really. I adore Natasha in every film except Ultron. I didn’t hate her there, she just felt… not right, to me. Maybe I’d feel differently if I watched it again; I only watched it once and it was a shock to see her ~soothing the savage beast and all that. Ultron really shook my faith in the franchise, basically. And because civil rights are like, the political issue that brought me out to my first protest when I was a wee Lokifan, and the question of accountability and power in superhero films is such a big thing, and Natasha is a hero but she’s also a SHIELD agent as-was, and she was on Tony’s side argh oh God please don’t make me hate her or ignore how fundamentally the Civil War conflict gets at Natasha’s core traits…

( staying together is more important than how we stay together )

( non-Natasha stuff )

Well that was 1800 words of opinions. Disagreement welcome as always, btw. I am much nicer about real people who disagree with me than superheroes :D
