Civil War What are the rosters going to be?

Antireg
Cap
Falcon

Proreg
Tony
War Machine (may grow to resent his side)
Hawkeye (might be the Miriam Sharpe analogue if he looses Laura in whatever event kickstarts the SHRA)

I can see Black Widow siding with whoever, or even getting taken down early.
Black Panther offering implicit or covert support for Cap at some point.
Wanda siding with Cap, but possibly being taken down early. At some point she helps restore Bucky's memories.
Bucky being simply pro-Cap.
Agent 13, if involved, unlikely, might be after Zemo and is lead to join Cap's side to help him.

I still don't know about Black Panther, he could possibly take the Spider-Man spot.

I think BP will be pursuing his own agenda, protecting his Vibranium. I reckon the registration will cover not just people, but technologies and resources which could be used to create superheroes/villains and the world's governments will want to get their hands on Wakanda's Vibranium.

He'll start off anti-reg. Then as the SHRA is passed he'll strike a deal with the pro-reg side to keep some control over his Vibranium. He'll reveal his identity to the public like Spidey in the comics. Then as the pro-reg side becomes more totalitarian he'll be all "screw the vibranium this isn't right" and go anti-reg.

There aren't enough characters! D: D: D:
 
I couldn't see Scarlet Witch siding with Tony. Not after hating him for most of her life.
 
^

By that token, one wouldn't have seen Scarlet Witch joining the Avengers either. At the core of CW is the issue of superhero registration and where heroes fall on the "security vs. freedom" scale, that the philosophical ideal goes beyond past grievances, both real and perceived.

Among the current Avengers, I can see SW (even odds) and War Machine (likely) siding with Stark, with Vision being a neutral party taking the Dr. Strange role from the comics by refusing to be an active combatant for either side.
 
Nope don't see it. The Twin's hatred of Tony was far greater than for the other Avengers. Also, I don't see Wanda supporting registration in general.

Yeah, she is kind of a free spirit
 
Yeah, Scarlet Witch will side with Cap. He's the one who recruited her in the first place, gave her and Pietro a chance - and Stark is the man she's spent her whole life hating. When he suddenly does something that divides the people who were his friends, she's totally going to take the opposite side.
 
Think BP will pffer refuge in Wakanda for those who refuse to register.

Although then again after the mess of AOU he might be demanding some sort of control. He may be king of his people but he is answerable to them. So far Hulk alone has smashed up a few cities. Stark has created killer robots. Yet they have no~one (with shield gone) overseeing them.
 
SW doesn't have to like Stark to be pro-reg. The Maximoffs and the other Sokovians didn't like the Avengers flying around doing whatever they wanted. So it makes sense that she would still want a system in place to keep them in check. It's possible that she has mostly gotten over her hatred of Stark. I'm sure she won't be best buddies with him, but I think they'll put their differences aside.
 
Pro-Reg:
Stark
War Machine (military man who follows orders, probably believes in the system)
Hawkeye (Similar to Rhodey plus a family he wants to make sure is protected)
Antman (Hank Pym's anti-superhero love will probably rub off on him)

Anti-Reg
Cap
Widow (Doesn't like organizations that try to control her)
Falcon (Loyal to Cap)
Vision (seems to appreciate humans' individuality and freedom)
Scarlet Witch (Hates Stark and the "industry of war" that will probably be backing registration)
 
The Sokovian's hated the Avengers for specific reasons. That doesn't automatically equal "supports registration." Especially since Wanda and Pietro will willing to volunteer to be used as human guinea pigs by HYDRA, and join forces with Ultron, if it gave them a chance at revenge. Those are hardly the actions of people who would then go "oh, governments should totally register people."

Plus, Wanda probably appreciates the Avengers much more now, given that she freaking joined them at the end.
 
So is it confirmed that Abomination is also on CW?
 
In that tie-in comic that came out before AOU, it showed the Maximoff twins protesting against their current Sokovian government (a clip we saw Hill show Cap in the movie). It was during one of these protests that they were recruited by HYDRA, who approached them under the guise of being able give them skills that would enable them to better fight back against the government.

So Wanda a) has hated Tony for a very long time and b) was willing to undergo dangerous and potentially fatal experiments in order to stand up to her government. I think the most logical conclusion would be that she would side with Cap and anti-Reg, if she sides with anyone at all.
 
I could see Abomination standing in as the clone cyborg Thor for CW.

No. Vision and Wanda cannot be separated. I won't allow it!

Before [BLACKOUT]seeing AOU I would agree [/BLACKOUT] with you, but after [BLACKOUT]seeing AOU I can see Vision on Iron Man's side. Vision said there is a part of him that is JARVIS, and Tony could say the right words to get Vision to join him it worked on Bruce, after all Tony/Bruce did create Vision. Also I think when Thanos rips that Gem from Vision head, Vision will stay dead when Thor said the Gems was the most powerful thing in the universe I think it was a hint the Gems will have to be destroy after they beat Thanos. There way too powerful, dangerous no one should have that much power, isn't that what happens to ever powerful thing in movies LOTR-Ring, BTTF-Time Car, HP-Elder Wand.[/BLACKOUT]

Actually, [BLACKOUT]Vision said he wasn't JARVIS either. Vision isn't even on the Avengers side. He's on the side of life, [/BLACKOUT]so Vision will choose the side which will result in the fewest deaths. If Wanda and Vision are on the same side, who could possibly stand against them? Because of this, I think Vision will choose to be on the same side as Wanda.

Also, I don't think anyone should assume that Thanos will rip the gem out of Vision's forehead. It's very possible he never gets to that point. Even with just two infinity stones, a Thanos would be unbelievably powerful.
 
The teaser showed Thanos with all 6 Infinity Gems. I think it's pretty safe to say he'll have all of them.

As for the rosters I think there'll be a very deliberate decision to make Iron Man's team more powerful than Cap. It makes him the underdog and forces him to go underground.
 
Ok, what's with all the Wanda/Vision stuff? Apart from him saving her at the end, was there anything else that made it seem like they're going to be inseparable in the coming sequels?
 
I think that Whedon dropped subtle hints/nods to their relationship in the comics, which people picked up on. As to whether that leads to anything more, well we'll just have to wait and see.

Whoever the plot requires? Wanda got pretty easily taken out with a neruo-arrow after all.

Well to me no which is shocking since all last year I was all for it, but now not so much. I went from shipping Wanda/Vision to shipping Wanda/Steve, I just think they make the better pair in the MCU, I mean Wanda/Steve do have a similar history, [BLACKOUT]Both lost the closest person to them Steve lost Bucky in 1945 while Wanda lost Pietro in 2015. [/BLACKOUT]
Having overheard Rogers' conversation with Barnes about wanting to help in the war, Dr. Abraham Erskine allowed Rogers to enlist as a candidate of Project Rebirth, a "super-soldier" experiment being conducted by the Strategic Scientific Reserve under the supervision of Erskine, Colonel Chester Phillips and Agent Peggy Carter Once there, Erskine subjected Rogers to the super-soldier treatment, injecting him with a special serum and dosing him with Vita Radiation. Although the treatment was extremely painful, Rogers told the scientists to keep going and he emerged from the experiment nearly a foot taller, with a greatly enhanced physique. After the experiment and the scientists and generals celebrated
[BLACKOUT] One day, Wanda and Pietro were approached by List, a scientist at the the HYDRA cell in Sokovia, who offered them the opportunity to achieve the power needed to drive war out of Sokovia. Initially skeptical, Wanda was convinced by Pietro to agree. Along with other volunteers from the town, Wanda and Pietro underwent a series of tests where they were exposed to energy from the Scepter, which had fatal effects on the others. Wanda and Pietro, however, experienced exceedingly different effects. The power of the scepter unlocked latent supernatural powers within the pair; while Pietro achieved superhuman speed, Wanda attained a number of mental powers such as telekinesis, hypnosis, and energy projection.[3][4] [/BLACKOUT]
[BLACKOUT]Wanda lost everything when Pietro died Steve also lost everything when he lost Bucky if anyone understands what she is going threw its him, Steve never backs down from a fight it's like if he does bullies will walk all over helpless people, its like he has no choice but to fight. Wanda is similar when Ultron was beating on Steve Wanda/Pietro saved him and Ultron was upset they did Wanda said you think we had much choice something Steve would do most likely. [/BLACKOUT] There are more reasons why I ship them also what was Steve saying about it's hard to find someone with shared life experience :cwink: Captain Scarlet I'm with this ship till the end of the line also super soldier magically babies Sarah and James Pietro Rogers the twins.
