Yeah, Civil War is pretty good. I think the Captain America trilogy is overall the strongest of the MCU trilogies released thus far, winning out over the Thor and Iron Man trilogies (both of which had really weak second acts followed by better third installments, in my opinion)

Whose idea was it to make some of these movies pushing 3 hours? I can't imagine how people sat through the theaters when they originally came out.

Yeah I don't know who let that happen. The first film is a classic and I love the second one a fair amount too, and the whole idea of a series of supernatural pirate movies is something I want to love so much, but each subsequent movie just kept getting weaker. The later movies definitely would've benefitted from tighter storytelling and less reliance on sheer visual spectacle.
Catwoman with Halle Berry: who the f#ck allowed this travesty to happen?
R.I.P.D. with Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges: could have been interesting, but it did some dumb things with its premise and relied too much on sight gags
Horrible Bosses 2: a decent film as far as comedy sequels go. Jamie Foxx as Motherf#cker Jones is one of my favorite roles of his
