Friday at the Movies: Captain America Civil War
Video games are an interactive experience and whether it’s that fact or something completely unrelated the stories in them, well, mostly suck. Comic books (as well as other media) somehow get lumped into the same world, which is completely without merit. Perhaps it’s that both started off as a target for kids, but whatever the reason this is a myth that is often regarded as fact. Comic books have incredible story lines, character development, and even rival contemporary films in terms of quality content. Captain America Civil War has to be one of the best translations from comic book to screen I have ever seen.
