I remember reading somewhere that earlier drafts of Civil War, before they were sure they could use Spider-man, the team's included Daredevil and Sharon Carter. There's some lingering vestiges of this version, with Sharon showing up in a bunch of promo stuff for Civil War in a supersuit with a Daredevil style weapon...
Spidey was awesome, but it sure woulda been nice to verify Netflix Marvel's canonicity.
Also according to concept art, at some point Ant Man was gonna be on Iron Man's team, along with Wasp. That seems unusual!
I only recall they added Black Panther because they originally didn't know if they could use spidey.
No one has complained about the addition of Black Panther to Civil War, and the reason is that the character was really well-integrated into the themes that the film was exploring.
Spider-Man was integrated not so much into the themes, but into the film as occupying a space in the larger shared MCU.
The Russo's I think have fully admitted they added Spidey back in at the last second. They had a part for Spider-Man originally that was rewritten for Black Panther. Then, at the last moment the Spidey deal went through so they added him quickly back in, but didnt have the time to do anything huge.

winter soldier had good fights and some great action sequences
the casino fight in black panther is excellent
otherwise, yeah, I'm generally pretty lukewarm on MCU fight scenes
I am pretty sure the "Black Panther was originally gonna be Spider-Man" story is apocryphal and the Russos said Black Panther was always in the movie and going to be a huge part from Day One, they just had to add Spidey later on

Black Panther fills such a drastically different role that even if he was inserted into the movie because they didn't think they could get Spider-Man, it would have had to be at such an early stage that the script essentially wasn't written yet

Iron Man vs Killian at the end of IM3 is a buncha fun. There's a part where Killian slices off Iron Man's leg, then whacks him in the face with it.
Hulk's rampage in Johannesburg is probably the best looking CGI fight, but that works cause neither character is supposed to look like a real thing, I guess. They both have weight, but in the kinda 'fall right through a building' way that looks unnatural.

Dang, now I'm imagining Peter Parker standing behind Zemo in the snow, taking his mask off as he comes to the realization that murdering him will not bring his uncle back. Then he lectures Zemo about how great power comes with great responsibility.

I don't think Peter could have pulled off the line "the living are not done with you, yet." Quite as well.
This is pretty good. Interesting that it ends on Brie Larson's introduction.

I'm really curious what the marketing for Avengers 4 is going to be if they're basically blowing their "look how far we've come", "10 years of the MCU" and "it's the end." type spiels on Infinity War.

There's one part in Thor Ragnarok where Hela is fighting a horde of Asgardians and she does this basic spin move (leaning backwards and spinning or something) and they made Hela CG for it and it seriously pissed me off enough to pause the movie. It was completely unnecessary.
I prefer a good practical effect but I would never get so mad that I would stop watching over CG
Like, folks flipped out about how bad Thanos looks and I think he looks pretty good?

Oh what's this, i've just received a secret note from the set of Black Widow, informing me that the villain is Omega Red! For some reason, it even specifies that his tentacles will be entirely CGI with no practical effects whatsoever!
I joke but i honestly wouldn't be surprised

There are certainly a couple Marvel films that would improve a letter grade in my mind if they stopped some of the overly cgi action sequences.

Sure which is why the phrase is "just masturbation". The "just" indicates that it's specifically masturbation to the exclusion of other content.

It did bother me when I saw the CGI in The Thing when compared to the practical effects that they had swapped it out for.
Okay but the end of Black Panther
Like at worst I go "Oh that doesn't look great" and then just keep watching
Has a black widow movie been announced or are people being weird
It's that the design looks very bad
I'm just saying, i dont think most people who don't like it are saying that because of the cgi quality
But his power level is quite high.
