It's always amazing how standard censorship techniques like inserting bleeps over vulgar language and blurring obscene imagery can be effectively funny when those same techniques are applied to innocuous dialogue and imagery, altering a scene to appear dirty and more fitting for an R-rated film.

Daily Asgardian News uses those same techniques, including a blur effect over the speaker's lip movements to further sell a faux obscenity, for its "Unnecessary Censorship" series. Their latest one uses footage from Marvel's Captain America: Civil War, and while it is hilarious throughout, the scene in which Ant-Man meets Captain America for the first time is especially funny because now a simple handshake appears pornographic.

Marvel's Captain America: Civil War finds Steve Rogers leading the newly-formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity, but after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark's surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

The film stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd and Frank Grillo, William Hurt and Daniel Brühl. Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and produced by Kevin Feige. Louis D'Esposito, Alan Fine, Victoria Alonso, Patricia Whitcher, Nate Moore and Stan Lee served as executive producers. The screenplay was written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.

Marvel's Captain America: Civil War is now available on Digital HD and will be available on 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital SD and VOD September 13!
