Last Song: I don't really listen to music. 🤷‍♂️
Favorite color: blue
Currently watching: Stranger Things, which I had never seen, and I can totally see why it was so popular. I'm told its fandom rivals Star Wars in terms of toxicity though, so I've been avoiding all of that.
Currently playing (since I'm an avid gamer): Zelda Tears of the Kingdom (3rd time in the last year, still hasn't worn its appeal out) and Star Wars Battlefront 2 2017
Relationship status: single, have always been single, and probably always will be since my social skills are awful.
Current obsession: it varies from day to day, but today specifically it's Wanda Maximoff, as it is a good 2/3rds of the days of my life.
Last thing I googled: something for my schoolwork I think
Tags: @valkyrieandstrangeridingaragorn, @breckstonevailskier, @captainwidowspring (no pressure; I know how busy you are)
Someone You Want to Know Better
Thanks for the tag @mothboypoison I love tag games so don't feel bad about tagging me in them!
last song: Masterpiece by Motionless in White
favorite color: Blue. Specifically a cyan blue.
currently watching: Rewatching 3rd Rock from the Sun
sweet/savory/spicy: Ooh, hard choice... I like to drink my sweet and I eat more savory than spicy. But I do like spicy.
relationship status: Taken by two handsome, sweet, and lovable guys~ <3 Dating every fictional man I ever met in my head.
current obsession: Jujutsu Kaisen is very strong in my interests right now, but I have also drawn 4 full pages of doodles about that fuckin Pal, lmao. I think it's safe to say Bushi is my obsession right now.
last thing you googled: A list of DDR songs. Which led to me finding Stepmania and a site that sells dance pads and now I really want a dance pad because I miss playing DDR.
I shall tag @tsunderesalty and @tsukimefuku but absolutely don't do it if you don't want to.

This scene, like many other MCU Wanda scenes, simultaneously fills me with joy and boils my blood.

A Wanda Maximoff I can show my affection for and help heal?
A Stephen Strange, Steve Rogers, Logan Howlett, Wade Wilson, Carol Danvers, Ororo Munroe, Peter Parker, Eddie Brock, Bruce Banner, and even Michael frickin' Morbius I can chill with?
Characters I knew nothing about but would now die for like Eric Brooks, Robbie Reyes, Nico Minoru and Illyana Rasputin?
A Tony Stark that I can actually learn to like (or if nothing else accept the presence of) because he's not treated as an infallible god?

Why can't we live in the reality where this happened?
Because Civil War was a prop-Tony propaganda film, since he seems to be the only MCU character the Russo brothers actually like (aside from Thanos, who was basically their OC).
[For those wondering, this concept art is not depicting Vision killing Tony. It’s depicting him phasing into Tony’s armor to disable it in order to stop him from hurting (or more likely killing) Wanda.]

Last I checked, if you have to take Wanda's actions out of context to make her look like a baddie, maybe she's not that bad a person.

I officially give up on trying to understand that motherfucker who asked the question.
That aside, it will never not amaze me that so many people think Tony was the only one with any sense in Civil War.

I unironically think Batman v Superman sells its conflict better than Civil War. At least in BvS you can genuinely understand why Bruce Wayne hates Superman, and you can somewhat sympathize with his fear. And even though it's barely communicated at all, you can kind of see why Clark Kent doesn't like Batman.
Civil War has nothing like that; even someone as self-serving as Tony should never in a million years have backed the Sokovia Accords, so right off the bat there should not be a conflict.
Also, as poorly built up as it was, Superman's "death" had more pathos in it than anything in CW.
BvS's worst crime is continuing the unfortunate trend DC movies have of making Batman kill (it wouldn't be fair to single out Snyder for this when Burton, Nolan, and even Schumacher did it before him). Civil War's worst crime was the fact that it obliterated both the MCU's overarching story, and the fandom, the effects of which never went away.
Age of Ultron wasn't great, but it set the groundwork for a brighter (Tony-free) future, and then immediately after that Civil War came along and torpedoed it.

I know this isn't the main focus, but that Bruhmangoddman guy grinds my fucking gears. He trashes Wanda left-and-right on r/marvelstudios, then out of nowhere he's defending her here.
That being said, this plot point will never be fully explained, and I kinda don't want it to be, because I'd rather be able to believe the twins didn't know they were working for Hydra than get an answer I don't want.

Yeah it would make more sense for Sam, Clint, Wanda and Scott to continue fighting until they could get away. They then kill Ross's men who show up to arrest them, then steal another plane to follow Steve and Bucky to Siberia. Then after capturing Zemo, they use him as a bargaining chip to leverage their freedom.
Killing Ross's men would have been a terrible idea, because he could just use that against them. "Look at what those monsters did to my innocent men. We need the Accords to make it legal to give these terrorists what they deserve!"
That said, I agree, and I fully buy into the idea that Tony had all of them forcibly subdued.

I genuinely had no recollection of the Avengers theme playing anywhere in this movie, so I went back and listened extremely closely to the moments you pointed to.
I'm not a music expert, so take my opinion with a tablespoon of salt, but I think you're reaching. While I hear a few notes that are very similar to the Avengers main theme, it could just as easily be a coincidence.
That being said, it doesn't take a film expert to see how desperately the movie is trying to go "look at bad evil mean Steve 😈 trying to kill poor innocent Tony UwU 😢" throughout the entire fight. Everything from the editing to the performances to yes, the sappy music are all screaming "Steve bad, Tony good". On the one hand, that does really explain why so many people came away from the film thinking Tony was fully in the right and Steve was fully in the wrong (and believe me, I've seen a lot of people who feel that way), but on the other hand, I genuinely cannot believe it's taken close to a decade for all of this to really come to light.
If anyone wants some idea of the moments we're talking about, here's a clip of the fight (shit, look at the image used for the thumbnail; even it is proving me right).
youtube
An excerpt from my Captain America music paper, for I just made a seriously disgusting discovery:
"The other appearance of the breaking up of the Avengers theme is during the Siberia fight, where it is played twice. The first time it plays is when Friday tells Tony, “You can’t beat [Steve] hand to hand,” and it continues as Tony tells Friday to analyze his fight pattern and she does it, up until Friday says, “Countermeasures ready,” and Tony grabs Steve’s shield. The second time it plays is shortly after Steve disables Tony’s suit, and shortly before Steve, exhausted and injured, slides off Tony’s suit and onto the ground; this plays until Steve helps Bucky off the ground and starts to walk away with him. Now, as the previous use of the Avengers breakup theme helps show that Civil War was more of an Avengers movie than a Cap movie, this use actually happens to show how the film is more of an Iron Man movie than either of those other two. For considering that the theme was obviously meant to have the most impact after Steve broke the arc reactor, the fact that it first shows up a little before then is quite notable: and when exactly it shows up is very revealing. It first appears when Tony does not exactly have the upper hand (though Steve is doing no damage despite pummeling Tony’s suit), but then it stops when Friday allows Tony to get the upper hand over Steve and seriously hurt him, and then it resumes again when Steve is able to thwart Tony and disable his suit.
Such use of the music seems to be the movie implying that if Tony had won the fight, whatever fracture the Avengers were experiencing would be less severe, but it is solidified now that Steve won the fight. Now, this is very much not true, as the entire Siberia fight was literally Tony trying to kill Bucky because he was upset, while Bucky tried to avoid this and Steve defended Bucky: but considering the lengths the movie went to to try to make it seem like Tony was justified in doing this and not acting monstrously, it is not surprising that these fraudulent efforts extended to the music. And curiously, the Avengers breakup theme does not play when Tony provokes Steve into dropping the shield, even though that is much more symbolic of the Avengers breaking up than Steve preventing Tony from killing him and Bucky. But that, too, might have painted Tony in a bad light, and the movie avoided such a thing at all costs. Civil War is seriously messed up."
Truly, the more one examines this mockery of a Captain America film, the more it becomes clear just how thoroughly rotten this movie is, and how it is most definitely not Cap 3.

You missed "um, ackshually, Rauru and Sonia are dictators who were ruling by fear of annihilation, meaning Ganondorf was somewhat justified in what he did ☝️🤓"
I'd be lying if I said I didn't want more details on what exactly the world was like in the past, but this asinine conclusion says more about the people who came to it than the story itself.
Do people hate Tears of the Kingdom's story for any reason other than "It contradicts the sacred lore/timeline that you absolutely CANNOT contradict," or "Zelda deserved to die for 'being a bitch?'"

Since we'll probably never see Wanda or Vision again, this is what I choose to believe happened to these versions of them.
— what happened when he wasn't there to pull you back from the darkness, wanda?

There really is no way to take that theater alleyway scene and make Steve the bad guy, yet over the years I've seen quite a few people try.
I really don't like coming across posts that claim Steve loved to get in fights pre-war and he was happy to get physical and punch people. I really, really don't like that.
Bucky may have implied he was used to seeing him in back alleys but this interpretation that he was happy to kick ass as if it was a pastime of his grinds my gears. He saw a dude acting like a jerk in the cinema and the idea to fight (I'm pretty sure) was that guy's, not Steve's. What Steve did was what he always does: stand up and push back. There is a huge difference between doing that vs picking fights.
