If Thor and Bruce Banner/Hulk were in Civil War I think that it would be interesting to see which side these 2 respective heroes would fall under but you speculate...whose side do you think these 2 would be on?
 
I think Bruce would side with Steve, especially if Ross is involved. Thor would be funny because he would probably make things worse by going directly to the government to tell them he can't be controll and told what to do. But I also think he would prevent Tony and Steve from allow it to escalate into a physical fight.
 
Comic book Thor would definitely be on team Captain America, because of their long-standing friendship within the comic universe. That mutual respect as warriors (Steve almost lifting the hammer, their chemistry in battle) has been introduced a bit in the movies, but not really well established, so it's hard to say what movie Thor would do. On the other hand, in the movies Bruce Banner definitely has a close friendship with Tony because of their bond as scientists, so that would have him lean strongly to team Iron Man, which would probably place Thor on the opposite side for story-telling purposes, to even the fight out.

Thor - Team Cap. Hulk - Team Iron Man.
 
Thor and Hulk in CW would result in the destruction of the airport.
 
Knowing Bruce he would side with Steve, and why? General Ross... Wasn't Ross basically trying to kill Bruce before? Ross was doing everything in his power to kill The Hulk or at the very least apprehend him hence Banner being on the run for so long

Thor is the real wild card in the equation and why? Thor he is friends with Steve but then again he is also friends with Tony. Thor he would be torn between the both of them in terms of choosing which side to fight on and Thor he would be like Switzerland in the sense that he would be neutral.
 
AoU showed that Thor and Cap are Bros. Their combo moves were great and they trust each other,I loved when Thor stops Cap not to engage Vision. Hulk would be pretty much the wild card in battle.

I don't get that at all. Remember he was strangling Tony in AoU until Cap told him to stop. Thor would probably say what a lot of people do, Stark should be in jail for making Ultron not in charge of anything.
 
I think Thor would go with Cap and Banner would go with Stark.

Thor is more like Cap and has been cross with Stark a couple of times. He's probably respectful of the governments of Earth, but I still think he'll see Cap as being right and as a good man to have the responsibility over the Avengers.

Banner is probably thinking more that he needs to be controlled than any other Avenger, so therefore I think he takes Stark's side (whom he also seems to be the closest to). Of course Banner didn't want to be captured by Ross in the past, but if he's in CW the whole point would be that he's not just running away.

So it would probably lead to Thor vs Hulk again, and as ernesth said above, the airport would not fare well if those two clash together without holding back.
 
You are probably right Thor would be Team Cap in the sense of being Anti Registration and Banner would probably be Pro-Registration because of the fact that he feels like he needs to be controlled. However, Banner would he really be on the same side as General Ross? Or better yet wouldn't Ross just see Banner as a threat like he always did?

As for Thor and Cap being close... I think it goes back to the fact that Thor is a warrior on Asgard much like how Steve was/is a soldier at heart and they both know the art of what war truly is
 
Yes, the Ross part will be a difficult factor, but I think AoU would put him on that side since he still can't control the Hulk at all times.

I also agree that Cap and Thor are of similar hearts as warriors/soldiers. Thor just likes battle a bit more than Steve does.
 
They would both be on the side of Capt. I'm surprised so many people on this thread think Banner would go with Stark just because of their perceived friendship. It is the politics that would dictate his choice. Banner wants peace and solitude. There's no way he would support a system where he had to be registered and monitored

It's not his friendship with Stark that causes him to take that side, it's that he sees himself as a monster that's a danger to everyone else.

And if he was in Civil War there wouldn't be a point of him being in solitude since he would inevitably have had to come back. If he doesn't want to come back he won't take any side at all, so it's Stark or none at all.
 
Bruce would not want any part in this. Especially since Ross is on Team Stark, but the moment they start hunting down heroes I assume Bruce would stand with Cap. Thor would respect Tony for trying to make up for Ultron and be on his side likely. Those two would probably go at it at the airport scene. Rendering
Giant Man
absolutely pointless to introduce as his strength wouldn't be needed.


Like Hulk and Thor are walking warheads, having them on either Team is a dangerous and risky move.

Unless I've missed them showing something in tv spots (as I've stopped watching footage from the movie) your first paragraph seems like it might contain a spoiler.
 
Bruce I can see him siding with Cap because of Ross especially because Ross hates The Hulk because of his daughter Betty but also he has more or less tried to capture Banner

Thor I know he would side with Tony probably
 
Well, I don't think I have enough comics background to answer that, I'm more a TV guy. But speculating (or speaking only of movies, where the Marvel Universe is just beggining), Thor would not get involved in mere human issues (or that would be his first answer, specially when his two best friends, Cap and Iron, fight in oposite sides) He has another perspective. So he just would threaten them to return to Asgard and stay there until all calm down. Of course, seeing his friends fighting each other, he will return to help disadvantaged faction or something like that. But always keeping a high value.

Hulk, I see him like Reed Richards. Banner is a scientist, so he may agree with Reed and Tony, perhaps. In the movies he still consider himself like a monster that destroys everything, so surely he would support the registration act to maintain control and so everyone takes responsibility.

This is my guess, but I prefer Thor: Ragnarok and Planet Hulk. Too bad the last one not gonna be.

Nope, spoiler free, nothing that can't be assumed from watching all the spots.
 
United We Stand Divided We Fall...I mean with Civil War I mean in all seriousness Bruce Banner he would probably be Team Iron Man and why? Because he is much more closer to Tony in the sense that both of them are geniuses but at the same time Bruce Banner all he has ever really wanted is to control The Hulk and he can't do that so that is why he would probably be all for government control when it comes to heroes

However, Bruce he would not want to be on the same side as Thunderbolt Ross so in all honesty I can see Bruce being the real wild card in the sense that he would border on Team Iron Man but then again he could probably side with Team Cap because of Ross therefore he would probably be neutral

Whereas Thor he would probably be Team Cap in all honesty

[BLACKOUT]Giant-Man[/BLACKOUT] has not been in a spot, although I saw some speculating about that [BLACKOUT]Vision's leg (iirc, it's not Giant-Man at least)[/BLACKOUT] was that.

He hasn't been but come on like everyone doesn't already expect it. We've had toys, art and at this point everyone should see that coming. But for the sake of respect I will spoiler tag it.
 
Both would be on Team Cap. Thor respects him as a warrior and no way would Banner be doing General Ross's bidding.
 
I don't buy for a second that Banner would willingly sign the accords. He doesn't want to be 'controlled', he wants to not be the Hulk at all. And, especially knowing that Ross would be in charge, he most certainly would not want the government to be controlling him, telling him when to suit up and who to take out. I'd give it about six months before they started trying to use him as an unbeatable weapon against regular enemies. Of course, by that same token his most logical option would still simply be 'neither of the above'. But he would probably be willing to help Cap if he knew that his friends were in serious danger. Certainly more willing than he would be to sign up for govt. service.

Thor is a much less clear question. Obviously, if they were to appear, he would have to be opposite the Hulk, or there would be no movie. But the most logical place for him to be, I agree, is mostly neutral and kind of smug and arrogant towards the govt. His sympathies probably lie more with Cap than Stark, but being so much of an outsider to this world and culture, he would probably be most concerned with stopping the escalation.

Edit: Thinking about it a little more, I think the most logical way to write Banner in would've been as a 'neutral' prisoner - he refuses to sign the accords, but is willing to let the govt. lock him up in a comfy/high security area in hopes of keeping the hulk in check. This would make even more sense, considering he's probably still wanted for the South Africa rampage. Then Thor could've spent the first half of the movie trying to be neutral and stop the escalation, until the Hulk inevitably winds up on the loose, is massively confused by all of his friends fighting each other and Thor has to abandon his efforts to go put the green genie back in the bottle.

As well as increases the collateral damage of the film. CW was meant to keep the conflict between the opposing groups, not have widespread destruction throughout the film.

They would both be on the side of Capt. I'm surprised so many people on this thread think Banner would go with Stark just because of their perceived friendship. It is the politics that would dictate his choice. Banner wants peace and solitude. There's no way he would support a system where he had to be registered and monitored

Had Bruce stayed around after AoU, CW would have ended with him sedated and restrained in the Cube or a special cell in the Raft. Ross can never be trusted when it comes to Banner.
