There are no clear motivations, goals, or stakes until about halfway through Captain Marvel. Up until that point it's a mess.

Also while being an origin story for Nick Fury, it was more of just an introductory for Captain Marvel. I didn't feel like she went through a significant change or journey as a character.

I don't know if I've mentioned it before on this site but once again I'm left dumbfounded by the pre-production creative decisions. One of the writers who was brought in to write Captain Marvel was the woman who wrote the latest Tomb Raider. The movie that came out just last year, but you probably forgot existed.
That movie got bad reviews, didn't make a lot of money, and had no cultural impact. Yet apparently, someone in charge of Captain Marvel picked up the phone and said "bring me the girl who wrote Tomb Raider!"
Why? I don't understand...

This character has the ability to be the Jar Jar Binks of the Marvel Universe. This movie was a steaming pile of shit. The acting was actually worse than the formulaic & contrived plot. I heard they filmed 2 endings to End Game, 1 with her being the savior and another with someone else defeating Thanos. With the audience rating of 50% on Rotten Tomatoes (this after removing 93k alt-right troll reviews), they might cut her scenes in the upcoming film. This film might take a bigger nosedive in it's 2nd weekend than Spiderman Homecoming did.

The highlight of Captain Marvel was seeing how Fury loses his eye. And that was another letdown

Maybe it'll be " someone else defeating Thanos." Cuz I hope we're not subjected to large or to many doses of her in the Avengers End Game movie.

I watched Winter's Bone this afternoon. I thought it was really good, and Jennifer Lawrence, who was only 20 when it was made, was extremely good (thus the Oscar).

Wow James Gunn just got re-hired to direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3. I thought there was no chance of this happening since it's Disney. Glad they grew a set of balls. He should have never been fired in the first place.

I can stay hyped for volume 3 now. Is he still going to do work with Dc? This doxing people for shit they said ages ago and allot of this stuff is off the wall not even serious just goofing around is getting annoying

Just saw captain marvel

You guys are right it sucked. By far the worst of the whole series. And you definitely don’t need to see it as a prep for end games

Seeing nerds take their children to watch adaptations of the stuff they used to read/enjoy is nice.

It's an awful movie but it reminds me for example of seeing Terminator 3 in the theaters with my parents, when they saw the original before I was born.

Same sort of thing with people of my generation taking their children to Pixar sequels.
