Not sure when I will get to Civil War, but here’s my intro just in case.

Civil War was the anti-Ultron for me. If Ultron demonstrated that the serialization of movies made it difficult to tell standalone stories, Civil War proved the experiment’s capacity for huge payoffs. The movie is so great because it exposes conflicts several years in the making — impossible without previous installments.
