085 - MCU Part 7 - Captain America: Civil War & Spider-Man: Homecoming

It's time for Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the crescendo to The Infinity Saga. Oddly enough, neither of these have anything to do with Infinity Stones. We're going a little bit out of order in the interest of flow, starting with 2016's Captain America: Civil War, which sparks a bit of a civil war between co-hosts. We then skip forward, release date-wise, to 2017's Spider-Man: Homecoming because why not? They take place right after each other and are directly connected. Don't fig...

Liam Neeson's daughter has been taken, he's been stabbed by a lightsaber, he's walked among tombstones, been a lion, and released a kraken. This week we talk about when he was a group of oil workers' only chance of survival after a plane crash in Alaska. We are talking about The Grey (2011).
