They ignored EVERYTHING that had happened since Avengers in Ultron. It was so irritating.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

True, but the IM parts bothered me the most for some reason.

Exactly! They spend three movies developing the relationship between Tony and Jarvis, including the "Don't leave me, buddy" line, and then Tony replaces Jarvis by sorting through a pile of fancy USB chips?
Not to mention Tony blowing up all the armor then having an army of drones. Grr.
It's like Joss glanced over some basic plot summaries of the solo movies and all he took away was "Oh, Tony doesn't have the arc reactor anymore, that'll make costuming easier."

IM2 has the watch-from-the-hall party scenes. They make sense for the narrative, but they're cringe-inducing.
Whereas IM3 has Tony trying to deal with his PTSD and horrible emotional coping skills. Plus a giant bunny.
(No, I am never going to be over the inclusion of the giant bunny.)

I always skip the party scenes.

IM2 has Natasha and Nick Fury in the diner.
True, but the IM parts bothered me the most for some reason.
Being fonder of Natasha and Steve than of Tony, I was bothered more by how little he could be bothered to even pretend to give a fuck about their character development. But they're all bothersome.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
No one mentioned ANYTHING about the last post-credits scene in Ant-Man HOLY CRAP.

That would require having seen Ant-Man, though I've seen the GIFs.

I'm still internally squeeing about that scene.

Captain America: Civil War is shaping up to be a better Avengers film than Ultron was. Joss is so going to get served.
