Captain America Civil War: 10 Worst Plot Points The Film Must Ignore

Proof that you can't keep a good comic (or at least, a comic that sold incredibly well and continues to do so in collected form to this day), Marvel's Civil War is making a comeback on several fronts in the near future, a decade since it was first published. First off, it's getting its own spin-off book from the publisher's current alternate universe mash-up crossover Secret Wars. More importantly, it's also providing the basis for the next Captain America film. Slightly disappointing fans who were looking forward to a direct follow-up to The Winter Soldier, the search for Bucky and renewed fight against HYDRA will take a back seat to Steve Rogers having a series of heated arguments with Tony Stark about whether or not superheroes are entirely justified in existing outside of the law and doing what they want. Seems reasonable. That unexamined power came to a head in the Civil War comics as it will in Captain America: Civil War, a film which basically co-stars Robert Downey Jr in what may be his final go around as Iron Man, and has also added most of the remaining/new additions to the Avengers actors as well. The comics saw most of the Marvel Universe fighting each other, so from the looks of that cast list, this is going to be a faithful adaptation of the source material. Should it be, though? Mark Millar and Steve McNiven's mini-series was a sales hit, but remains critically divisive to this day, and the repercussions of changes it wrought are still being felt in the comics - for better and worse. There's a lot of plot points that remain quite naff, or nonsensical, and wouldn't quite work in the MCU. Here are the ten worst plots points Captain America: Civil War should ignore.
