Brie Larson was solid. Deaging Tech is getting scary good. They telegraphed the importance of the cat way too much. The Skrull makeup seemed cheesy.
Basically this movie was not a story that needed to be told, but just a character that needed to be introduced. And they did that just fine.
Really? I thought it got the “hey do your remember the nineties? I sure do” out of the way pretty quickly.
This was a fine movie, with a decent story that adds color to the whole marvel universe.
One marvel trope that needs to end is the masked super hero who is constantly showing their face. Like “oh here’s this technology so the Black Panther can randomly make his face appear in The middle of the fight to say something” and Captain Marvel is just as guilty. I blame Spider Man 3 for this whole thing starting.

I am sure it’s the actors requiring a certain percentage of their screen time requiring their faces be shown to build their own brand up.Monkey_Driven wrote:Mecca wrote:@SkitchP wrote:This movie was pretty okay.

I hate this as well. Iron Man probably started it in the MCU though.

But Captain Marvel doesn't hide her identity. Her helmet is utilitarian ... Kinda.

OK, I went back to Mecca's original post. I don't see anything about Captain Marvel's helmet not hiding her identity. I feel that your blasphemy is unwarranted.

Yeah, I read that again. That's a weak accusation of "Classic B.". I did NOT say the same thing that you did. Certainly not close enough to warrant such a mean response. Maybe that was worth a "Yeah, that's what I'm saying."

months ago when it was revealed fury would have both eyes the theory was floated it was because of the cat....
glad to see they changed the cats species

- Spoiler: show
If you haven't listened to that episode of the Fatman Beyond podcast, you really should.
What does it mean that Stan Lee exists in this universe? I assume he was asked to star in Mallrats because he wrote all the comics that introduced all these Avengers who actually exist.
B wrote:Interesting, nitpicky plothole:
"Come As You Are" was released in 1993, and was available on vinyl in 1996. Apparently, CM heard that song during her short visit to Earth and it became so important to her that it was playing in the construct for the AI.
Also, when Fury told her "lose the flannel," how did she know what flannel was?

I checked online before going out and at 4pm you could still get good tickets for the 8pm screening in my local theatre. Four hour before show time and an about 80 seat theatre was only 2/3 sold. Not sure I trust the numbers provided.durdencommatyler wrote:B wrote:durdencommatyler wrote:I just read that Captain Marvel is killing it at the box office. It does not need my help.

That's like, what? ... 7th best opening for an MCU movie. I've enjoyed all the MCU movies except for Thor II: The Bad One, but this movie isn't top 10. I'd say mid teens in quality.
Shut up, B. It made 153 million and it's the biggest opening of the year so far!

She doesn’t need it with her Binary powers, tho, which seemed to be what was going on there at the end.
