During SuperHeroHype's set visit for Captain America: Civil War, director Joe Russo spoke on the sequence in the upcoming film that sees both sides charging at each other, ready for war! Russo said they refer to the scene as "Splash Panel," and it's one of the biggest sequences in the film. "We’re referring to this sequence as the Splash Panel or the double panel. If you’re a comic book fan you know that any epic book you would open it up, as a kid I would just go through and look at who was fighting who. I’d stand there in the store for 15 minutes until the guy told me to buy the book or get out. So this sequence is our live-action splash panel or double panel. It’s a big epic sequence." Joe Russo, in a separate interview with Screenrant revealed that the entire scene will be filmed in IMAX. "This whole sequence is in IMAX, it's about a 15-minute sequence. It's the only one that we're doing on the camera. The camera literally just rolled off the press like a week before we started using it. It's an IMAX 65, so it's the ARRI's 65. It's a join camera between ARRI's and IMAX. We're going to shoot all of Infinity War on those cameras."

Chris Evans also spoke on the film, and revealed that he can see why the Government, and the people are nervous about heroes who don't operation with any government restriction. He also notes that Bucky Barnes/ The Winter Soldier shouldn't be completely responsible for his actions, considering the fact that (like Jeremy Renner in The Avengers), he was brainwashed. "I think it’s no secret that what happens is there’s a world around them that expects a little bit more responsibility for their actions. The Avengers have been operating independent of any government restriction, so I think there’s plenty of people that makes nervous. I don’t think I’m giving anything away by saying what happens is certain governments expect a bit of a change. Cap’s done nothing but give himself to this group, so I think they understand the value of what it means to me to find him. And especially after Renner’s been brainwashed, Scarlett’s been misled, we’ve all had our share of being taken advantage of, so I don’t think they hold him completely responsible for some of his actions."

@Ninja55 - Pretty sure they wrote up this article while it was filming, and were just allowed to publish it now. Common sense man.
