Earlier, the hot news broke that Marvel wasn’t shifting it’s release date for an unannounced Marvel movie from May 6th 2016, the day the Batman Vs Superman movie drops in theaters. Feige planted his flag. Mexican standoff. Fanboy press ate it up. Now to add fuel to the fire, DC knows what they’re going up against.
According to THR, Marvel is dropping the untitled Captain America 3 movie on that date to do battle against Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman and maybe another DC hero or two.

Now don’t get me wrong. I absolutely love Captain America: The First Avenger, it’s my favorite Marvel movie, my favorite Marvel character, and I will most likely fall in love with the upcoming The Winter Soldier which I hear is dope but, Captain America 3 is going up against the Goddamn Batman along with his pals Superman and Wonder Woman.

During the last comic con, DC won the worldwide perception battle with the Batman Vs Superman announcement. I mean EVERYBODY, even non fanboys were asking about that announcement. I couldn’t go to the local bodega to get a sandwich without being asked about Batman Vs Superman. Folks, that kind of perception is rare.

Ironically, back in 1996, when DC went at it with Marvel in the comics, the fans voted and Batman beat Captain America. I even voted for Batman.

I think Marvel knows that BvS will trounce CA3 overall no doubt, but are planning on doing it anywayz in hopes that the sales of CA3 still will put a tarnish in BvS sales so that it doesn't compare with the Avengers sales. One would think that it may be dope to put another full Avengers movies head to head against this semi-Justlice League light movie, but then that'd probably only hurt both of their total sales overall. All the nerds, comic book heads, fans and even casual will probably see either movies no doubt at some point, but when either film is the only ones out there, that spurs a higher likelihood of multiple theater viewings than if there's stiff competition out there. For instance, for all the cats that may have been planning to see BvS 5 times in theaters that month may only see it 3 times now, for their other two viewings may be towards CA3.

Only reason I can see Marvel having the balls for this is if they're going with the Death Of Captain America storyline for the third one. It's the only Cap story big enough that could possibly trump the DC Clusterfukk. Add that it would be the first major superhero death in either cinematic universe and the hype would be even bigger.

breh, nobody really gave a flying FUKK when captain america died at the end of one of Marvel's biggest stories ever. Superman dying made the cover of time magazine and was the biggest media story of the year.

Captain america is peanuts compared to superman OR batman.

The Story was good tho..it wasn't as big as Superman dying, but we are talking about the movies. This Batman is Ben Affleck for Christ's SAKE!!
