True story: That entire Blockbuster/Radio Shack sequence was filmed at an old North Hollywood, CA shopping plaza that was mostly abandoned at the time. In the shot where she looks across the parking lot, in view is a movie theater. That's where I first saw this movie! When those of us inside the theater realized what she, and we, were seeing, we collectively gasped and began pointing at the screen. That is officially the most surreal movie experience of my life. A year before, I noticed filming going on in that lot, lasting weeks, but had no idea what movie it was for until that moment.

It made for a much more complex story in the big scheme of things. We all knew the Kree had nutjobs. Now we see how bad they really are. If we end up having evil Skrulls, then it's a clear case of good guys and bad guys anymore. That grey area in storytelling is fascinating.

When I went to DragonCon (Big all-around geekery convention in Atlanta every Labor Day Weekend) after this film came out, I broke out my uniform from when I used to work at Blockbuster from 1995-2000 to wear as cosplay. Any time I saw someone cosplaying as Carol, I told her she owed me a new roof. Also related to the year 1995, the script that Stan Lee is rehearsing in his cameo is from a real movie called Mallrats, one of the first theatrical movies he ever had a cameo in (he had been in a few of the made-for-TV-movie follow ups to the Incredible Hulk TV show previously). In fact, instead of asking him to try to record dialogue for his cameo in this film, they just looped in the audio from his scene in Mallrats. That way, all he had to do was sit there and look like Stan Lee on the day of filming, much more accommodating to his declining health at the time. Also, because Stan Lee was playing himself in Mallrats, that means his cameo in Captain Marvel was also as himself.

Right there, Fury knows this guy doesn't actually _know_ him or he would _know_ Fury has never been _stationed_ in Havana. The guy's been made.

I loved this movie when it came out. There was a lot of hate among certain parties for Brie Larson herself because of how outspoken she is about female empowerment and the treatment of women in Hollywood. Some folks just can't take that. There were also complaints about "lack of emotion" in her performance, but I like how you immediately picked up on her humor and how she's not a team player. She's a soldier who's been brainwashed, and she's trying to figure out who she is. This film is set in the 80s and 90s, and it's a deliberate throwback to simpler narrative styles used in earlier superhero films. The analogy to Superman is apt: Carol Danvers is by far the most powerful superhero in the MCU, comparable only to Wanda. Of course, this presents a challenge for the narrative: like Superman, she can trivially solve problems that other characters would struggle with. So she either has to be absent (off-planet, solving other people's problems), faced with situations she can't blast, or (my least favorite) depowered to give everyone else a chance. The Marvels, which is coming in November, looks like it's going to combine the latter two: the power switching means she can't go all-out lest she put the other two in danger, so she has to learn to work as a team.

Nor is it accurate, given how Supes often does face difficult obstacles and choices. Besides, you don't really know the Marvel comics if you think Captain Marvel is above omega level threats. She is not really among the most powerful beings in the Marvel universe, if that's your thing, ranking power levels. Like even Scarlet Witch, as I mentioned above in my previous comment, could be considered more powerful. Yet, she can still have an interesting story, right?

Peter's enjoyment is complicated by the pressure he puts on himself due to having his powers, Stephen spends his first major victory horrifically dying over and over again, Natasha's whole motivation is to make up for the sins of her past, the audience is charged up by the newly upgraded Thor in Infinity War, but he's just lost nearly everything... it's all very understandable for them to feel the way they do, don't get me wrong.

Christian Bale has put himself on record as believing that American culture would be 'much richer' if the people in power weren't mostly white men. The actor made the comments during an interview with AOL Build this past Monday as he sat with Rosamund Pike and Wes Studi to promote the upcoming Wild West drama film Hostiles. "Our culture will be so much richer the day that we stop saying, 'Hey, it's all white dudes who are running things," Bale said. "Whether that be Hollywood, whether that be Washington, you know?" "We're going to get, in Hollywood, so much better films and so much more interesting stories being told, and America will become the America that the rest of the world sees it as, that makes it unique... that we recognise makes this such a beautiful, brilliant country." Bale went on to call the US a 'country of inclusion', explaining that he moved his family to the States because he fell in love with the country. Bale, who has two young children Emmaline and Joseph with the American make-up artist Sandra 'Sibi' Blažić, applied for US citizenship in 2010. "It's the reason why I moved here," he said. "It's the reason why my kids have American accents."

I like the twist that It looked like the Skrulls were the “extremist alien force” of the movie, only to find out the KREE were the invaders.

[@JudoGeoff]

As an exercise physiologist who considered becoming an aerospace physiologist at one point (a role which would involve studying pilots' tolerances to accelerations, among other things), I appreciate your comment about the breathing techniques one would have to use during extreme maneuvers. It's super cool stuff -- and something I really appreciated about the new Top Gun film, honestly. To be fair, that move that Danvers pulled in the ship before getting her powers would be utterly impossible, but we don't watch Marvel movies for realism :-p

[@Shap0o.PlayZz]

I am confused. Which ship are u talking about? Could u explain a bit further and enlighten me..

[@Chumppi]

A lot of scifi has G-dampeners etc built into the ships. If a ship can go light speed I think the dampener part is the more believable part.

[@1monki]

Brie did a ride-along in a fighter jet before filming Captain Marvel. She was aware of the breathing technique. But in films, they often choose not to do the real thing because it either doesn't look right or the audience didn't understand why they were doing this thing. It's what, 2 or 3 seconds in the film. Are they going to waste 2 minutes explaining why this breathing technique is important? I was listening to a sci-fi showrunner explain how a scene in his show made no sense except the need for visuals in a visual medium supersedes realism

[@MeatSim9]

From what I remember of the time, they disliked it more for the actress, though I can't remember what it is she supposedly did to piss them off. I enjoyed it, and I really want to see more of the Skrulls.

Christian Bale Says Hollywood (and the World) Would Be Better If ‘White Dudes’ Weren’t in Charge of Everything The actor says there would be "so much better films and so much more interesting stories" if white dudes weren't running Hollywood. Zack Sharf Dec 19, 2017

[@yoelroe1184]

Christian Bale has had enough of “white guys” running everything in Hollywood and beyond. The actor stopped by AOL Build with his “Hostiles” co-star Rosamund Pike and Wes Studi on December 18 and told the crowd that the reason he moved to the U.S. in the first place was because he wanted his kids to grow up in a “country of inclusion.” Unfortunately, that ideal hasn’t been too much of a reality.

[@mgass1354]

She said that Captain Marvel was stronger than Thor, which, in Feige's MCU, is true. He de-powered the original hero's (Thor, Hulk, Scarlet Witch, Vision) in order for the movies to be "dramatic", and when it came to taking on Thanos, he introduced Captain Marvel, who was written to BE the strongest Avenger and balance the power back. The "omg but wimmenz" crowd lost their shit.

The one thing I think they kind of missed in this movie is how in Iron Man they refer to S.H.I.E.L.D as the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, and Pepper mentions to Coulson that it is too long, but in 1995 they are referring it to SHIELD.

[@douglascampbell9809]

The acronym originally in 1965 stood for Supreme Headquarters, International Espionage and Law-Enforcement Division. It was changed in 1991 to Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate. The MCU changed it to Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division.

[@ashenfang]

I'd say it's a bit two fold as to why a lot didn't like this film. 1st, well.. it's just a reality that there are a lot of guys out there that feel threatened or whatever you want to call it when there's a strong female main character, it's something that we see constantly within our society time and time again and I've no doubt that this was a big weighed down by it. 2nd, it touches a bit on the first part, but not so much as being outright threatened, it comes to being able to connect with a character, to see yourself in this character. I worked in a comic shop for about ten years when I was younger, and the vast majority of the people buying were white males, while I can't say if the same still applies (I'd not be surprised), I recall that Wonder Woman couldn't hold down an on going title because it just wasn't getting the sales that titles like Batman and Superman were for DC, and she's one of their "Big Three". I don't feel that there's a right or wrong here, I think it's just how we are as humans, far more easily able to connect with that which we identify with, but it puts a light on the reason that representation is important, so those that can identify with them have someone to root on and feel that they have these characters that in a way can represent them.. It's a tough thing, DC, Marvel and every other company that churns out movies, shows and the like.. they will ultimately look at profits and that doesn't always mesh well with seeing that everyone gets representation... Well, that went on longer than I would have liked.. anyways, enjoyed your review of the movie!

Agreed Patrick. A lot of the hate this movie gets is just pure misogyny. It's not a perfect movie, but it is quite good, personally I'd put it up in the top 10 of the MCU films. There is a sizable portion of the male populace that just cannot handle a strong female lead.

[@anhkriva5274]

I think while talking about misogyny propaganda u missed some points why movie got lots of dislike. They introduced Carol too late, right before grand finale and suggested she is gonna overshadow characters we watched grow and got attached to for years. If her movie came earlier plus she was given some good cameo people would consider her more part of a team and even accepted her taking leading role in endgame. Second thing is actress herself who did everything she could to antagonise as much potential viewiers as she could. Third while i get that she was supposed to fight more restrictions forced on her then villains in this movie, having someone powerful enough to if not threaten her to at least make her serious would do wonders. Its superhero genre and superpowerful character, people expected some spectacular battle.

"So the Kree turned out to be the bad guys ? I could not have predicted that" The black guy in her squad, Korath (Djimon Hounsou) is the guy that fought Star Lord at the start of Guardians. He was fighting Star Lord because he was trying to recover the orb (containing the power stone) for Ronan, the protagonist of that movie & noted KREE nationalist, who was (of course) actually working for Thanos... until he told Thanos to do one & took the stone for himself. Tl/dr, Kree are bigger assholes than Thanos. This was the least surprising twist in the history of film & you don't even need to know what a comic is to have seen this coming.

[@LordVolkov]

I think a lot of the dislike came from people misunderstanding who the Kree were/are because they aren't all blue like Ronan (and it was never established that Korath was Kree in GotG).

[@pieceofgosa]

@@LordVolkov kind of irrelevant that Korath was Kree, it was established in GotG that he worked for Ronan (the bad guy) then one of the good guys (Drax) killed him in the 3rd act. Ergo, he was a total bad guy goon & alarms should have been going off the second you saw Carol on a team with him.
