Captain America: Civil War - 12 Most Hotly Anticipated Scenes

8. War Machine's Brush With Death

The Scene: War Machine gets shot out of the sky, and though the trailers are clearly trying to imply through sneaky editing that Bucky did it, it seems much more likely that Vision was the perpetrator.

Why It Should Be Awesome: Even though it's incredibly unlikely that Rhodey will die now that they've given this clip away, seeing an Avenger in such a vulnerable state should definitely up the stakes as the movie progresses. Tony Stark's quips are probably going to be long gone by this point, and the Civil War will become extremely personal.

What Could Go Wrong: The only real worry here is that the trailers have in fact given too much away (as they do so often these days), and Rhodey actually dies. Surely that's not the case here, though.
