Kamala Khan needs to meet Spider-Man ASAP, the Nerdiness between those two is going to go through the roof.

Nah…imagine her reacting to seeing Spider-Man. Hanging upside down terrifying the living hell out of her.

[@ryanstauffer119]

Yes! Along with America Chavez. So far, we've only seen Kamala meet Kate Bishop. And I hope that when Ned and MJ remember Peter Parker, they will get to meet these other characters too. America Chavez was supposed to be in NWH originally. I hope we get to see these characters together for the next Avengers movies. But other than those people, I hope we see Spider-Man with Star-Lord again. We barley got to see them geek out about stuff like Footloose. And just imagine them talking about that sort of stuff with Ant-Man. Peter Parker, Peter Quill, and Scott Lang would make a great trio talking about pop culture references and jamming to music.

Just a little reminder, the motto of this channel is "Because liking things is more fun than not liking things". Even if a film isnt great and does have many behind the scenes issues, there will still be things to like about it and those who do like it, and its better to have a positive space to enjoy things, than get angry about a film you can easily move on from, because it is sad to enjoy being annoyed, but fun to enjoy being happy.

[@CameronMetrejean]

As someone who did NOT like the first Captain Marvel movie, I found this movie to be a vast improvement. Brie Larson was allowed to actually show some emotion here, her character was shown to have made a major mistake in the past that she has to overcome. I liked the dynamic between the 3 leads. Me and my friend went to see this fully expecting (and almost wanting) to hate it. and about 30 minutes in he leans over to me like “is it just me, or is this one actually pretty decent?” And i agreed, it was.

Twas the opposite for me. Enjoyed the first, expected the second to be better than what people were saying, didn't enjoy anything besides kamala and cats

[@Far2Sega4U]

You forget, she was literally trained to fight with no emotion in the first movie

[@IAmHavok]

But you know her being emotionless was the point of the first film right? For as long as she could remember she was taught, trained, and had it hammered into her that emotions are bad so if course she'd learn to be toneless and mission oriented. That was literally the point.

I disagree with that. This thing was delayed four times and they shouldn’t have released it after secret invasion as now we know the skrulls do have a home and they still have the thanos sanctuary farm planet that apparently carol never asked the avengers or rocket or nebula where those coordinates were. In fact the third time is when it should’ve been released or that secret invasion shouldn’t have been made. Because on its third delayed release it had as much time as it could before the strikes as its release date was slated in early February and then was delayed until July. In which no trailer was released nor did they ever promote it or show any footage until July 20th, 2023.

Hell, I think the most underrated movie in the franchise is Ant-Man & The Wasp specifically because it's low-stakes and just wants to have a good time. Having one of these every now and then makes for a nice counterweight to the darker episodes. Also I was laughing so hard at the Cats scene that I could barely breathe.

This movie I feel slots itself cleanly in the middle of the pack.

The success of this film was also hindered by the writer's and actor's strike, which like literally ended just before this film was released. So That's why there was no press tour/junket or any online or tv promotion for it besides the trailers

[@benjaminpotter5262]

i near fainted when i saw beast in the credit scene, i have been the 1# x-men fan for years and i am so excited for it to be brought back.

This movie is more fun than expected. At least for me.

Kate Bishop: If I had a nickel for every time I came back to my NY apartment to find an ominous, yet very friendly girl with an advanced skillset, who knew everything about me and called me by my full name, who then has a fun chat with me and becomes a BFF, I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but its weird that it happened twice right?

[@rogueguardian]

I'll level with ya lee I did not watch this movie in theaters, souly cause of marvel fatigue. That said i didn't think it deserved to bomb it looks fun and hey maybe I'll give it a shot now. Love the channel buddy, keep it up.❤

[@daverhoden445]

I've enjoyed this movie multiple times but I never noticed that they had separated the bracelets until you mentioned it. Thanks.

[@pufthemajicdragon]

Ms Marvel is my favorite MCU character full stop. This movie continues everything GREAT about that show and its characters. The MCU was built on strong character development and I feel like it's lost its way a bit. But the Ms Marvel arc flips that on its head and gives us that character depth again and it's AMAZING! I love it! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

[@Epicurus341]

This movie was great fun and Iman Vellani was outstanding. I also love movies that come in under two hours. Like all superhero movies, it doesn't entirely make sense if you think about it too hard, but I don't watch superhero movies for realism. Feel sad that Nia DaCosta got thrown under the bus for this when it was released during the strike and had to win viewers back after the disappointing Quantomania and Secret Invasion.

[@doomforzombies]

Part of the lack of marketing was due to the strikes at the time

[@matsumuratrp]

Man I've had Marvel burnout for so long, the last project I enjoyed was Loki, but I was so surprised that I really enjoyed this movie. It was just so fun and I found myself getting giddy along with Kamala every time something cool happened. The fights and switching between the 3 mains was honestly some of the most interesting action we've had in what feels like forever. I laughed the enitre horror-flerken scene, half out of disbelief that what I was seeing, and the other half just absolutely loving it. If you had told me 10 years ago that we'd have a Marvel movie where a swarm of kittens ate an entire space station of agents, I would have laughed in your face. Now look where we are! I had a lot of fun with this movie.

[@HariOmRadhaKrishna]

My wife & I went to The Marvels twice in theatres. Great action comedy with extra "cats".

[@Duganator]

I really enjoyed this movie. My biggest complaint was that it wasn't long enough. Give it an extra 10-20 minutes of run time to show us the destruction of Hala, Carol & Monica's tension, and allow other moments to breathe, and this would easily be the one to beat. Outside of that, this movie was fun. It developed our characters. Most of all, ot has me hyped for what comes next!

[@terancetan5503]

Personally, I thought it was ok, Dar-Ben could have used more screen time and motivation, and the movie as a whole could have definitely been longer. But the movie got WAY too much hate, and ultimately, I still like it, especially in the wake of Madame Web.

[@overlordfemto7523]

No one of wants to see more homosexuality bud

[@jasondavis2995]

​@@terancetan5503I strongly agree. I feel like the sequence of Carol destroying the intelligence should have been the beginning of the movie not the middle

[@terancetan5503]

@@jasondavis2995 That does sound like a better move. Maybe frame it from Dar-Ben's point of view, so you could sympathize with her and Hala's plight in the present day (like Bruce Wayne witnessing Superman and Zod's brawl from the ground level in BvS). It would be an easy way to explain why she would hate Carol so much and would explain her present-day motives immediately.

Oh, "The Marvels"! A perfectly (and purr-fectly?) fine, even good, film that got the short end of the stick in its box-office -if that's a thing that matters to any other person than the House of the Mouse and creeps who parrot stuff about whatever "woke" means this week. It had to do one thing only and it did it greatly: the chemistry and banter of our lovely protagonists. It had humor, it had heart, every one of them learned something from the other two. It would be a Phase 2 film from the high shelves -and it still works as a fine chill Phase 4/5 film where we have a bit of fun and don't worry about the Multiverse Saga (for the most part). A great video as always! Thank you for making it! Take care!

[@heamac]

I really needed this positivity today... thank you so much for being you

[@ImDemonAlchemist]

There is so much to love in this movie. My main problem (though I admit I've only seen it once) was just that the structure feels bizarre. Feels like it jumps from mid-act 1 to late act 3.

[@FrequentUser99]

I've been waiting for this one, I hope Everything Great About Nimona & Wonka are on the schedule too.

[@Rattiar]

Watched this twice in the theater. Once with my wife and once with my sister, bro-in-law, and nephews. Very enjoyable both times. It is not my favorite MCU movie of all time, but even among the MCU, I think it is average to just above. That means in the set of all superhero movies, it is WAY solid. All three characters are excellent and who you relate best to probably has more to do with your age than anything. (I, a gen-X, relate best to Carol, while my teen / tween nephews were HELLA into Kamala) So while it isn't perfect, no one is asking Quantumania to justify itself like this has been scrutinized. And having seen both, and Q wasn't bad, I would MUCH rather re-watch this. Thanks EGA!

[@justinpullen1097]

Didn't notice Carol having the other bangle. Good catch. Yeah, the hate was overblown for this movie. It was more Dark World level than Eternals.

[@zekewalker1350]

I definitely thought this was better than Thor4 and deserved better

[@fractdyl]

i definitely already liked this movie, but you doing this video and pointing out all the wins actually kind of made me love it? it's really one of the better MCU movies of late and i think it absolutely deserves more credit. it got some actual laugh out loud moments from me and it was just a fun movie! people need to have fun more I think

[@superpivoter13]

I just enjoy things myself, this movie included, but your vids always make me enjoy them more! like, retroactively, somehow.

[@Jserna05]

I liked it a lot, despite some pacing issues imo, as well as some wonky camera work at time. But considering it's the shortest MCU film and they got all this in? Exceptional work.

[@BooboosANDBloodshed_95]

KZbin channels like yours make me appreciate movies so much more than I already do. Even the ones that critics and many fans say suck because of politics or a certain actor. ❤

[@Furonanator139]

I honestly loved this movie, I go into any MCU film or show cautious now because after endgame they've lost their quality a bit but this and Guardians 3 were amazing movies to see in theaters. And the "are you praying? Don't stop we need all the help we can get!" Had me dying of laughter

I saw this movie with all the hate it received in mind and I really don't get the hate. I really enjoyed it. It's not a groundbreaking masterpiece, but it didn't want to be. It was supposed to be a fun, entertaining superhero movie and it accomplished this. I will definitely rewatch this some day.

[@dimsumjpg]

I think the movie also suffered from a lack of promotion due to the actors strike!

[@illneversleep]

this is so weird, i had just finished this movie 2 hours before you posted this!! also imo the best part of the movie is the montage of them learning how to use the teleportation thing edit: AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO DIDNT KNOW KAMALA COULD USE HER POWERS WITHOUT THE BANDS??

[@andareon]

People have been sleeping on this movie, although clearly the strike did not help, but It's the only Marvel of this phase that I really really liked from end to end (even if the villain is "weak" the rest of the movie counterbalances well in my opinion). Fun all around, and truly carried by the ensemble cast. That's one I'll rewatch actually.

[@thecartoonrobot]

I personally enjoyed this movie. Is it a remarkable accomplishment of cinema? No. Still, I had fun watching it, which is sometimes all I really want. (And the singing planet was based on a comic storyline, so keep in mind, these are comic book movies and comic books be like that.)

[@Justanotherconsumer]

Was totally worth it for the bilingual joke alone.

[@darkecofreak23]

So, I heard the director took inspiration from FFVII for this final fight. Dar-Benn was Sephiroth, Carol Cloud, Monica Barrett, and I’m calling Kamala Tifa. If the director did take inspiration from there, it was beautiful.

[@rndmpinkiepie64]

I prefer Ms. Marvel's MCU powers. When I learned about her in the comics, all I could think was "... yes, we already have Mr. Fantastic... Plastic-Man... Elongated-Man..."

[@Jkl66710]

I really don't think there's any harm in characters having similar powers, especially one as fun as elasticity. Think about all the characters whose abilities boil down to being very strong or being proficient with a weapon or even just being smart (or various combinations of the three). Plus I think Kamala is good at setting herself apart from characters with similar powers because she has such a strikingly different personality to most.

[@rndmpinkiepie64]

@@Jkl66710 I'm not saying characters can't have similar powers but Marvel didn't really have a GL character in the live action movies until this version of Ms. Marvel and I like it better, personally

[@hjjofficial]

There was not much marketing for this movie because the SAG-AFTRA strike ended November 9th and the movie came out November 10th. There wasn't a press tour, which is a shame because can you imagine the chemistry between those three on talk shows?

ive always felt so crazy for thinking this movie was petty good lol. it felt so satisfying to finally see these characters interact and i think that they work so well together
