The Best Twitter Reactions to 'Civil War'

by Mary Grace Garis

With the ceremonious thump of a shield being caught by a webslinger, the new trailer for Captain America: Civil War dropped Thursday, and it is something to behold. Not only are we seeing the usually unbreakable Avengers torn apart at the seams, but we're also witness to a new addition to the family: Tom Holland as Spider-Man makes his very first appearance. Ah yes, the Marvel universe is pulling out the big guns, sending the Internet into a fangirlish tizzy. In fact, if you scroll down Twitter's reaction to Captain America: Civil War, plenty of people are busy freaking out over the new trailer, while others... well, others are turning up the lolz.

It's not that the latest Marvel installment is particularly hilarious, it very much depicts friends becoming enemies among a world gone crazy. Buuuuut, truth be told, Spider-Man has divided the masses in an amusing way, and, well, you know how the Internet gets when it comes to Marvel and memes. I still get giggly when I see the OG Captain America Versus Iron Man Civil War meme, so there was bound to be a new crop of jokes. So, for your consideration, here is the best, most lolz-worthy Twitter reactions to the new Civil War trailer.
