Captain Marvel!! 🌟I didn't know much about her coming into this, but I left really loving her character! I can see why Ms. Marvel idolizes her haha. I also love origin stories, so this was a ton of fun for me. PLUS, Top Gun is one of my all time favorite movies, so all of the pilot stuff was so satisfying. I can't wait to see more of her in the Avenger movies yaaaaaay!!

most underrated movies in the MCU, in my opinion! excited for this

Nathan Jasper

So been looking forward to this movie since you started your MCU journey. Captain Marvel is such a badass and, while I can understand why people were upset at the reveal of how Nick lost his eye, people built up their own expectations so really it's their own fault. All Nick said was "Last time I trusted someone I lost an eye". He never said he lost it in battle. He never said he lost it in some Act of bravery. He never technically said it was a form of backstabbing betrayal. He said he trusted the wrong person. And that's true, he trusted a Flerken and lost his eye for it. People are all the time changing stories so they look better, especially if it's an embarrassing story. Do you think Captain America would understand the difference between a cat and a Flerken? Highly doubtful. So of course Nick wasn't going to tell him that! So sorry I went on a rant there, I lost complete track of that LOL Anyway, Captain Marvel's story is actually pretty resonant with a lot of people, I mean can you imagine being gaslit to the point that you don't even remember your own history? Of course that also has to do with experiments and consistent brain muddling but you get it 😆 Love the relationship between Carol and maria, ride or die for life!

Oh man, now that I'm seeing Agent Coulson again, I really hope you'll react to Agents of Shield one day. The series is simply awesome. And I can imagine you'll love the characters in the series.

Nathan Jasper

The only inaccuracy that really bugs me is that this takes place in the mid-90s, Coulson met Iron Man in 2008. If you remember in Iron Man, Coulson kept saying Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division. It wasn't until the end of the film that he said they decided to call it SHIELD. But in every expansion to the lore... Captain Marvel, Agent Carter, Captain America even... the organization was clearly called SHIELD a long time. I understand that when Iron Man was made, they probably didn't anticipate it becoming this huge sprawling universe so it being the first entry just causes that little moment to stand out like a sore thumb.

I am going to be honest. When this came out I hated it. Mostly for the same thing that has gotten so many recent movies into hot water. Activist Actors who see their movies as a vehicle for their beliefs. I watch movies to get away from the chaos and noise of daily life. Yes that means some types of movies are not suited for that. Documentaries or certain movies based on past or even present events. A superhero movie however is not that (and should not be that). With that being said, now that the whole hullabaloo has died down around this movie. I can appreciate it more fully. I do think the character suffers from some design flaws. I can best explain it by comparing the character to Superman in terms of the power-level that they seem to attribute to this character. The difference is that superman has limitations and weaknesses (lead, kryptonite etc. hell he even died during his fight with Doomsday), this character seems to have none (mind you basing that on what is shown in the movie, have not read the comics, any of them really).

Nathan Jasper

That's why you gotta actively separate actors from characters. Everyone with a platform will use that platform. Everyone. It just takes some time, practice, and effort but once you can do that, everything becomes so much easier.

So Great!!! I can't wait till next Thursday!!! You know you would make an amazing Cpt. Marvel Cosplayer! ♥

Hans Engelen

Agreed, but lately it has also been bleeding into the actual stories. Hard to avoid then.

Saw this in the theater. Loved it. When it was revealed that Talos and his group were not villains at all (as we tended to expect whenever Skrulls were involved in comic book runs), and he said, "My hands are filthy with it, too", talking about all of the unnecessary violence and bloodshed, I got really emotional. It ends up being a good commentary on how easily people can be swindled by hateful propaganda disseminated by a tyrannical, imperialistic regime. Of course, there are always the ones who never needed to be manipulated into their hatred and lust for political violence. I'm so thankful nothing like THAT is going on in the world. Amirite!? That scene when they go on their mission to the Skrulls, and they drop down into the water, and they're already speeding toward the shore! Right when that happened, I looked over at my girlfriend and mouthed the words: "That. Was. Fucking. Awesome". Shooting Yon-Rogg in the middle of his pathetic attempt to appeal to her insecurities was so satisfying. Jude Law is so good at being a complete ass.

This was great. I don't think I actually saw this when it came out, maybe just pieces. It was charming, super funny and badass. The music itself had me nostalgic for my Jr. and High school years. I LOVE that this is the explanation for Fury's eye. Thanks!

Darian Harman

HA! Just watched with your commentary. Your face during that first mission was EXACTLY like mine. The scene just kept getting more and more awesome. The rest of the film could have been terrible, and I still would have had that moment seared onto the surface of my brain. And, yes, major goosebumps during the ending montage of her falling down and getting back up. Also, watching it this time, I feel like the score (not the soundtrack) is pretty underrated, even by me. There was some really good stuff in there that I forgot about.

Darian Harman

I'm so glad you touched on the Carol and Maria relationship. I remember my eyes tearing up in that scene when she started going into how difficult it was to go on without Carol. Lashana Lynch is a powerful performer, and I genuinely believed everything she said in that scene. All of those scenes, in fact. Watching it this time, all of her disbelief and trepidation about Carol coming back was present in all of her acting decisions. You could see how bittersweet it all felt for her. Carol's back, but she's not Carol anymore. How do you deal with that? It would suck!

Nathan Jasper

So true! The layers in this film go so much deeper than people give it credit for. But despite the hate, it still raked in over a billion at the box office. Higher further faster!

Perhaps you could use this story and the way it deals with propaganda to reflect on why you dislike certain activism so much. The hate Brie Larson got was entirely unfounded. All she did was point out that the people who review movies are overwhelmingly white dudes and that there should be a push to better reflect the audience they review movies for. That's all. She got a hate campaign by a bunch of insecure white men (I say this as the whitest man on planeth earth) thrown at her that you and many other people fell for, which is very sad. I don't know what you mean when you say that the activism bleeds into actual stories, but I'm guessing you're talking about representation and inclusion of minorities. If that's the case, then I once more invite you to reflect on the kind of propaganda that makes you think that way, because there is nothing wrong with or new about showing minority struggles or queer themes in media. Superhero stories have dealt with those kinds of themes since their inception. The X-Men were created as an analogy for the struggles of civil rights leaders. Superman was created during WW2 by two jewish refugees who had fled to America and is basically the ultimate immigrant story. The Batman stories are filled with class inequality and struggle. I could go on and on. So yeah, saying superhero stories aren't the place to talk about societal issues doesn't make a lot of sense.

Hans Engelen

Thank you for brilliantly illustrating why I steered clear of the movie when it was released.

Pand

Can you elaborate? What part do you disagree with? I'm genuinely curious.

Hans Engelen

The part where you are clearly trying to draw me into a pointless debate on things I could not care less about. As my original post stated. I don't go to movies to get drawn into philosophical and political debates. Especially not when people clearly have a bone to grind on the subjects at hand (justified or not). It serves no purpose, and nobody ever ends up with their mind getting changed (not in this day and age) so there literally is no point.

Pand

Fair enough.

MaplenutsReact

Sooo well put. It sounds like we loved this movie for a lot of the same reasons!

MaplenutsReact

Oh my god, I never even considered that!! ❤️❤️❤️

MaplenutsReact

Oh yeah, you're right! I didn't make that connection haha

I have an orange cat that kinda looks like Goose. But then most orange cats look quite similar.
