No worries shanelle 👍. I hope you, your family and friends have a nice Christmas and I hope the jolly old fatman 🎅 with the snowy white beard and the red and white suit is good to you 🎄.

Indeed. You've put in the work and more than earned it!

I was gonna say Empire Records for the 90s movie suggestion, but it’s def not in the vein of You’ve Got Mail.

Consider this my entry to the fan club sweepstakes :D

Yeah, at the time of release I couldn’t understand all the hate thrown at this movie because Brie comments and the perceived woke feminine take over. I thought the movie was well done. Loved the Fury eye reveal. I had a cat that looked just like Goose as a kid, named Meatball. No, the Skrulls and dark elves are not the same race. I am not sure if you picked up that that Ronan (bad guy) from Guardians was in this movie and Captain Marvel was Kree just like Ronan at the start. Talk about being on the wrong side. It seems like a lot of reactors miss the Ronan and Marvel connection. Granted it Guardians was a long time ago. Don’t forget about the holiday special. Something you have been asking for is in that film, as a Christmas gift from Patreon patrons to you.

One thing that you didn't read about the Tesseract: do you remember the special element that Tony "re-discovered" in Iron Man 2 that cured his illness? If you look at the notebook left by Howard, you will see the Tesseract depicted in the notes. The special element discovered by Howard and then recreated by Tony was based on Howard's study of the Tesseract. You'll also remember that the arc reactor that Tony uses to power his suits was "based on unfinished technology" (as told to Tony by Nick Fury). The arc reactor was always meant to be powered by energy from the Tesseract. Tony's Iron Man suit is, in effect, based on the Tesseract. This means that Rhodey's War Machine suit is too. So, here are some of the characters that have powers because of the Tesseract: Captain Marvel Iron Man War Monger (the villain in Iron Man 1) War Machine Whiplash (the villain in Iron Man 2; remember, Ivan's father worked with Howard to design the arc reactor and Ivan used the arc reactor to power his suit)

Oh other fun super powers derived from an Infinity Stone, specifically the Mind Stone (the gem that was in Loki's staff): Vision Wanda Pietro (Wanda's brother that died in Age of Ulton) Ultron

One last comment about this movie: I'm not sure if you picked up on this so apologies if you did. Ronen, the villain from Guardians of the Galaxy was the Kree that fired the missiles at earth at the end of Captain Marvel. Also, Korath (the machine headed henchman of Ronen also from Guardians of the Galaxy) was one of Carol's Kree teammates - he was the one that made the not-funny-joke about laughing on the inside at the beginning of Captain Marvel.

A lot of small-minded boys "hated" this. My wife doesn't like it because she hates Bri as an actress. She also comes off as way too pompous and her comments towards fans weren't especially good to hear.

"Did some people not like this one?" A lot of fragile misogynistic men did not like this film.

I want to submit my name to the fan club sweepstakes. We could watch The Last Starfighter. 😂 I was going to bring up Ronan the Accuser (the big bad of Guardians) but someone already touched upon it. A great Annette Bening movie actually came up on the live...The American President. The ultimate 90's movie to me IS TMNT 2: The Secret of the Ooze for...reasons. However, you can't get there without watching TMNT '90 which came out at the beginning of 1990, but was made in 1989. That window of time was definitely a vibe. I never understood the hate for this movie. I guess some insecure little boys didn't like all the girl power in the movie. I didn't mind it at all! To be fair, Carol Danvers is among the strongest Avengers in the comics...so the badass treatment in the movie was warranted.

Some might call this the first dip in quality for Marvel, but those are just small-minded men afraid of confident women. There is not more plot-convience than in other Marvel movies, and there is a bit tonal whiplash with drama and jokes, but that is standard in action comedies ("Marvel humor" existed since the 80s! hate that term). The only flaw I see is starting out so alien, the first half hour nothing really relatable happens, the Guardians did that a good bit better. Brie plays Vers cool and with winking humor from the get-go, I think that would have worked better after she gets her full powers. But all in all, I like this identity loss struggle, combined with reclaiming the character Captain Marvel. Especially to stand up to a deliciously whiny Jude Law. Talking filmmaking techniques, how do you think they did the image warping and distortion in the flashbacks? Is it all post or something interesting with lenses or film? Jude Law movie recommendation: Sherlock Holmes 1+2 (2009/2011), he is the Watson to Robert Downey Jr.. I love these!

This is one of my favorite MCU films. The first female lead story and it's so solid, screw the haters. It's a story of a woman who has been told to slow down, don't climb so high, don't fly too fast by men but each time she gets up and succeeds. You'll get a similar level of enjoyment from Black Widow and Black Panther 2, too. Samuel L Jacksons de-aging is incredible. After 2 mins you just 100% believe it's young Sam Jackson. You asked for 90's films to enjoy: Clueless - The ultimate 90's flick. Heathers Slackers Waynes World Hackers - Angelina Jolie and John Lee-Miller in the most 90's tech movie ever. And the best Jude Law film is RepoMan, but most people will probably sat Gattaca.

Fun fact: Brie Larson is allergic to cats and apparently the scenes with Goose were challenging

Favorite Jude Law movies: Sherlock Holmes 1&2 with RDJ and A.I. I did enjoy the film. I was not looking for any agendas and just wanted to see what the next part of the story was. Thanks for the reactions. Would not mind submitting my name for the sweepstakes.
