Captain Marvel trailer

Marvel's first solo heroine movie:

"" (Watch on YouTube)

It's a crying shame that they didn't get to it before DC stole a march on them with Wonder Woman. And I hope it does well. I can;t help but feel if it's only as good as Doctor Strange or Ant-Man or one of the more run on the mill origins story, it's going to be a failure thanks to sexism.

but to say that anywhere would get the sexists in uproar. "We just don't like it because it's not good" etc etc. And of course I'm a bit sexist as well because I would never think that about a male movie or maybe not sexist myself just cynical about everyone else's sexism.

Anyway. I'm looking forward to it.

I can't wait to see what they do with her.
And how she defeats Thanos. *g*

So many upset people online, 'oh no she's going to overshadow everyone! it's feminism gone mad'

Only if marvel completely forgets how to write a team movie. No one complains when Spidey or Doctor Strange got a bigger role in Infinity War than the original avengers. (Well i did but anyway...)

Anyway, I've lost my thread. Hopefully it'll be good.

So far Marvel's only missed the mark with one project, IMO. And that's Iron Fist, which they messed up completely by casting a blond American as a character who really should be of Asian descent. *shrugs*
As for the Cap Marvel movie, it'll still do well I suspect, despite those haters online. ;)

I think it looks awesome

I'm very excited. The special effects look amazing (and usual but still...)
I particular like her Supernova/northern lights-power up look.

and find her helmet weird and distracting and hope she doesn't wear it for like 90% of the movie.

Cool! Glad you are looking forward to it.

Not long until release now.
