Captain America: Civil War Trailer 2 Breakdown - 34 Things You Need To See
29. Collateral Damage
Though it's obviously missing the UN incident, General Ross' case for the Sokovia Accords includes handily filmed footage of every major disaster event the Avengers and the old SHIELD have been involved in; New York, Washington DC, Sokovia. For the first time we get a tangible figure on the dead and the cost of the damage caused: 274 dead, $495.6 bn (guess which one's probably most telling...) Everyone looks a bit sheepish, even though they know their actions were unavoidable. The most interesting thing, of course, is that Ross doesn't acknowledge the fact that DC was in fact the careless work of the American government. Would he even be aware, or is this a hint that he's willing to change the narrative for his own purposes?
