I Don’t Know How To Talk About The Captain America: Civil War Trailer Without Swearing
We like to keep things clean here at The Geekiary, in order to do that we have a number of rules in place to prevent things from getting out hand. These rules are important, but right now I am having trouble adhering to one of them because the Captain America: Civil War trailer has sent my vocabulary down into the gutter. I have A LOT of FEELINGS okay and the only way I know how to express them is by yelling swear words at the top of my lungs.
Basically, I am unable to properly express my feelings about this trailer because I am trash, so I’m just gonna let everyone else express it for me…
Everyone is really excited!
Do I have to go to work? Or is it a valid option to watch the Civil War trailer on a loop for the next 8 hours? No?

You might think they’re being a tad over the top but you would be wrong.
Really though there was one thing – or should I say one character – that seemed to stand out!
Let’s replace the name of that movie with just: “Bucky” #CaptainAmericaCivilWar

lies. it was always going to be bucky and i was always in. — Sarah Dollard (@snazdoll) November 25, 2015
Well actually it was more that characters relationship with another character that got people talking!
Does the Captain America franchise even make sense when you don’t see Bucky as Steve’s true love? #CaptainAmericaCivilWar

There was one thing that had people scratching their heads!
The only explanation for that “I thought we were friends” line from Tony is that he doesn’t actually understand what friends are. — Gavia Baker-Whitelaw (@Hello_Tailor) November 25, 2015

Also they were seriously worried about Tony’s BFF!
Who knows what’s really going on! We’ve seen so little. All I know it that I am not prepared for the next six months!

OH MY GOD
Out of curiousity … Have you read the Civil War comics and all the tie-ins?
I’d love the movie to be about those issues or the the fandom proposed love triangle and the idea that it is both …. Stony vs Stucky causing SHRA and so Civil War just makes me squee al over the angst
