Anyone saying this is the worst MCU movie has not watch a lot of MCU movies. I present Iron Man 3, Thor 2 and whatever the hell the disaster that the last Antman movie was as examples of alternative worst MCU movies.

[@littlebunse5]

Iron man 3 wasnt that bad, mandarin was a little disappointing but it was a cool way to bookend tony stark, proving his brain makes the superhero, not the armor. Thor 2 shouldnt have been a romcom with so many scenes on earth and was generally generic, but it wasnt really all that bad so much as kinda boring and missed opportunities. Quantumania was just bad. The script was like a 13 year olds work. It was so unfortunate.

You’d be surprised the length some fans go to defend those terrible movies and how much they shit on Captain Marvel purely based on the fact that it’s “woke” cause it stars Brie Larson and two women.

Couple things 1. Monica isn’t too old to be bitter about Carol leaving, she may only be her aunt but she did raise her literally from birth, imagine how pissed you’d be if one of your parents of their own choice left you without explanation, that’d be upsetting at any age. 2. It’s not that Carol can’t beat Darr-Ben it’s just that when they fight, her powers get temporarily drained not to mention the random switching with Monica and Kamala.

This film really occurred to me why it was that Barbie did as well as it did. Not just for the meme, but I think it was refreshing to get something that embraced it's feminity front and center and knew what it was compared to another Marvel Product trying desperately to mix many things in the hopes it'll formulate something. Works on some people, but looks like it's not appealing right now for one reason or another. I bet if it played again right now, it still would have sold better than "The Marvels".

[@ishanharshvardhan6687]

Yeah I think it goes back to reference for writing....Barbie has tons of dolls each with a story.... Captain Marvel is just not the character u want for a woman superhero.....even in comics she never got enough pages......

@@ishanharshvardhan6687 tbh, in the comics, NOBODY really likes Carol Denvers because she looks like a feminine strong version of superman + green lantern, but it seems like she's more overpowered than they are, without the background and weight. And they did Monica really dirty...

Embracing feminity? You mean the type you are familiar with. I played with Barbies too so yes pre-conditioned to accept fantasies of a Barbie dream house with shoes that don’t stay on and one boy doll to marry them all. It’s funny that people hate on Marvel as a product but love Barbie who is an actual product. We have a generational issue in which no one knows when to tap out and let the next create their own version of feminine aka evolve.

For me, the worst parts of the movie was the pacing. Nothing that could have made an impact, was given time to breathe. The main villains power was her luck. Otherwise she was fodder for all 3 Ladies. By themselves. This would have been better off as a Loki style show. Let Monica and Carol's strained relationship play out. Let Kamala learn the lesson of "Never meet your heroes" firsthand. Resolve those issues in a fleshed out way and boom.. Cpt. Marvel is rehabilitated and you have 3 characters people will want to see more of. That's overly simplified, of course. I really wanted to like this movie. I mean, I did.. but it was just.. Okay.. Wait to stream it, is my "rating".

The writing is a lot better and it genuinely feels like the writers are getting a hold on how to work within this oversaturation problem they have, though I still think itd be better if they just fixed it. Also Kamala stole every scene and I hope her role doesn't flop because her career doesn't deserve that.

Honestly, I really enjoyed The Marvels. Kamala was a joy to watch. And the choreography was fantastic. I think my main issue with the film is that it's a bit too short. Nia said that was intentional, but it feels a little too breezy. The film could use longer emotional beats.

[@nailinthefashion]

I don't think people would have been happy either way tbh. Eternals is the most beautiful MCU film and barely anyone appreciated it. I think if this was longer, people would just flip the criticism to "this could have been 20 minutes shorter, why did they bother showing Monica and Carol chat so much" and so on This is my second fave MCU film after Strange 2, so I'm glad Nia did her thing regardless of what the mindless herd thinks

[@cscs88]

Like that you talk about the filmmaking techniques. Awesome content, subbed.

[@MovieTvDrama]

I enjoyed the movie both times that I've seen it so far. I've said before in another video comment, it's a pattern that reviewers whom usually notice the most obscure minutia suddenly can't remember things already explained explicitly in the dialogue of the movie like Carol's power being siphoned by Darr-Ben's quantum band when Carol uses it against her, the switching works only when two or more of them use powers at the same time, Darr-Ben specifically targeting the planets that are important to Carol to steal resources from, etc. I watch reviews because I want to see good faith analysis and constructive criticisms when it's called for, but so many reviewers are just bending over backwards to phrase things to fit their preconceived bias against the film without actually even paying attention even after multiple viewings. This team has excellent chemistry and their interpersonal dynamics are so interesting. Carol takes decisive action. Monica is very analytical, and Kamela is a combo of the two being both enthusiastic and curious. Carol and Monica finally reunite and they both go from an aunt who is so afraid to disappoint the kid she helped raised and the niece who carried pain from a parental figure who disappeared on her, to both becoming equals who can depend on each other. Monica referring to her aunt Carol as just Carol after they talk things through is such an interesting subtle shift in the dialogue. Carol carrying out Monica's idea to jump start Vala's sun before keeping Monica's home safe until she one day hopefully returns is such a lovely parallel to Monica waiting for Carol and Maria waiting for Monica. Carol and Kamela echo the relationship that Carol had with Monica with Carol as a role model that Kamela looks up to, Kamela finally meets her hero and learns that Carol as awesome as she is, is also a three dimensional person that she may not agree with all the time. Marvel movies often try to be funny, but the comedic beats in The Marvels are actually very funny and moments that showcase their personality and relationship to the people around them. The action scenes are very cool, the switching is very well done, both during the chaotic confusion and after they've trained to become a cohesive unit. The music score is just right. The film would have benefited from having a longer run time to flesh out emotional beats a bit more, but otherwise definitely one of the top MCU films for me.

That's what they sound like to me after all these years! Especially when they actually WANT this movie to suck and bomb at the box office instead of hoping it at least improves some of the things the first movie did like I do. And the way Disney has marketed the last trailer has only fed those five year old trolls. Tho, it sounds hypocritical for me to say considering I wanted The Flash movie to bomb because I didn't want WB to keep that POS even after they reboot the DCEU. But that's the difference. Brie Larson hasn't done anything wrong. Her words were taken out of context and seems to have an awkward personality and I can understand how that can rub people the wrong way. I don't have the mental capacity to explain it further and would rather recommend watching the second part of CinemaWins' Captain Marvel video where he gives the movie fair criticism while also examining why people hate her so much.

Shes box office poison, don't talk about straight white men before a super hero movie comes out. She tainted her own image and she's a total miscast anyways. Not every hero has to be a well know actor, they force em in sometimes like with Adam Warlock

[@hvyarms4496]

It is hypocritical cuz we want Disney to stop making sht movies for the sake of diversity so we gotta speak with our wallets. We want Disney to fail so they correct course. Which they announce they are doin, we're winning. Which means s the MCU is winning cuz its more money for them if they stick the landing

[@nailinthefashion]

@@hvyarms4496 capitalism good!!!!! Authentic art BAD!!!!!!!!!! NO MORE AUTHENTICITY ONLY PANDER TO MAJORITY FOR PROFIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@babblingbrooke]

Honestly I had fun. I laughed when a guy behind me mentioned a particular scene was like Space Balls. I'm a sucker for references so things like the "we have our heading" instantly make me happy. It's not a perfect movie but I really enjoyed watching it. I like the ham; the silly song planet with the silly jellyfish hat, and the silly lil kittens eating people as rescue pods, all just a fun little ride. And oh my god that scene of carol just gently floating out the ship with the dazzle of space behind her, that was one of the moments where it was like "yes, this is why i come to the theater." that and seeing the planet the Skrulls were on. Beautiful shots are truly breathtaking on the big screen

She was mad at Thanos because Monica was blimp and her mother died of cancer...

[@KURIFURISAN]

If Kevin is smart he leverages A v X instead of focusing on Kang’s Dynasty, it might help course correct the MCU from decline,

[@CylenxswizinSim]

Scientifically or realistically opening a portal that size would take months or Even years to suck up all water or air on an earth sized planet, I don't think the creator realized just how big planets are

[@thebatgurl10]

Ive watched it twice so far. Thank you for giving a well balanced review. No, its not perfect, but its way better than The Eternals, Quantomania and many others

[@HypocritesExposd]

It’s also better than Love and Thunder, Multiverse of Madness, Wakanda Forever, and Black Widow.

[@khaoss4024]

@@HypocritesExposdsaying it’s better than Wakanda Forever is a stretch

[@HypocritesExposd]

@@khaoss4024 Wakanda forever had a few great scenes with a ton of terrible ones. The Marvels had a lot of good scenes with a few terrible ones. Wakanda forever emotionally got me a bunch of times which The Marvels definitely did not do, but I was having a good time with The Marvels which Wakanda Forever did not do.

[@khaoss4024]

@@HypocritesExposd what? Besides the fact that Wakanda Forever is more critically received than The Marvels, it was also much more tonally consistent, had a better villain, and actually tackled a full storyline instead of doing pieces. The Marvels isn’t well received because everything serious is sped through so they can spend time being goofy, which is why people felt nothing when Captain Marvel had her 30 second pep talk but people cried when Shuri shed tears for T Challa. Better soundtrack, better cinematography, better character arcs, better combat- what are you actually talking about 💀

[@HypocritesExposd]

@@khaoss4024 you’re acting like I said Wakanda Forever is the worst movie and The Marvels is leagues better. I never said that. And you’re using the critics in your argument? Lol. Yes The Marvels has so many problems, but I have just as many problems with Wakanda Forever. Namor was an amazing villain, but Shuri and Riri were so much worse than The Marvels trio. The Marvels was far from being an amazing film, but not much better and not much worse than Wakanda Forever. This is my opinion. I’m not going to tell you your opinion is wrong because that’s not how opinions work.

I watched Black Widow-another female-led MCU entry-3 times because the story, the acting, and the action were good. Those aspects of The Marvels are not.

[@mileslugo6430]

Whenever they call Carol the annihilator all I can think is that Gumball Pseudo commercial where Anaise has chopping action. *It's the ANNIHILATOR! She can break everything with her tiny hand!*

[@RossM3838]

Then she sings and then she becomes a princess and then there are lots of kittens and then they switch places and then…. I am convinced that writer guy’s 4 year old daughter did indeed write this script

[@Ruudgi]

I too actually watched this just a couple of hours ago🤣 The dude that's with Darr-Benn does make it clear from the beginning that if she ever puts on both quantum bands she'll likely die as a result😂 but this movie was like watching a trainwreck happening irl. Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) and her family saved this picture from being worse than Quantumania tbh😅

[@ambabby8402]

With the X men becoming canon I wanna see my girl Jean Gray

[@EnragedTofu]

Was not excited for this movie at all, but really want to see some redemption for the MCU. It’s a 7/10 for me. Firstly, I’d have given an extra 30 moody & dark intro of an extremely angry Captain Marvel flying through galaxies, heading with great speed and we’re wondering where she’s going, then we see Hala and the Supreme intelligence as she dispatches some formidable Kree squads of somewhat anonymous Kree in Shadows. It ends with Hala in ruins and then Dar-Ben narrates what came next with artistic exposition. I’d have designed Dar-Ben to have a much more intricate & well designed armor as would her team moving through the story as mysterious figures unrevealed yet. The reveal could come later Aldana as Dar-Ben reveals herself and that she was one of the shadowy Kree guards buried by Carol’s wanton destruction but freed herself and began her mission of vengeance. All in all, it seemed too short, too artificial at times and emotional scenes didn’t land for me. It was still fun and Kamala absolutely stole the show.

[@lNoWayAroundItl]

I just don't have excitement for any superhero movies anymore. I am guessing I am jaded. I am in my late 30s, used to love the now cgi cringe spiderman, X-Men and Iron man. I just fell off after the Avengers. If they didn't have dozens of movies and series, I think I would have heard more about this movie. I probably will like it. It is just lost in the sea of Marvel content.

[@raider_reaper_4194]

The marvels was good imo 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@LetMeExplain]

It had a lot of funny moments! Wish they gave the villain the Killmonger treatment and fleshed her out.

[@tekqist28]

Lets be honest, I like a lot of your videos, but you are just nitpicking becuase its all female characters. It was a really good movie. Better than the entirety of secret invasion, latest thor and more. @@LetMeExplain

[@egomz123]

IF we get an A.vsX. movie, it's going to be just like BatmanvSuperman. Rushed 1st act of them getting on each other's nerves, 10 min tops of fighting, and coming together to fight a "bigger" threat that is not that threatening...

[@doyscherr]

When can we acknowledge that Eternals is not canon?

Honestly, I enjoyed the movie. It wasn't even close to a banger, but who expected it to be? It was just okay, like most movies. I think most of the community is hating their experience because of their own expectations in some cases, and this is one of them. The only recent release I genuinely got less than expected from was Quantumania

[@LAMAUR_ROYSTER_CEO]

Watching this in the theater the other night, I definitely got the sense that they cut out 45 minutes in the final edit.

Just imagine the Barbie movie set in the Barbie Universe but with no Barbies, just a bunch of middle-aged flabby Kens uniting to fight another middle-aged flabby Ken villain using a disjointed idiotic story-line, and expecting the Barbie fandom to show up and relate to these Kens. Disney would never be stupid enough to make that movie, but it would make a comparatively similar The Marvels, where neither the Barbie nor the MCU fanbase showed up and was so obvious that neither would ever show up. Just brilliant Disney. I am sure Disney will be doubling down thinking the mass audience will eventually HAVE to come around.

[@alemarie4575]

The only thing that makes me excited now is the possibility of Avengers vs. Xmen

[@danielroden9424]

yeah its a shame a few fans came up with better story beats than the studio. lean into the wide eyed teen meeting her hero and slowly losing that imagined angelic version in her head but come around to appreciate that carol has to make hard choices and thats why she is sullen and not bubbly or whatever. SHOW (dont tell) the destruction and how the AI controlled the unstable sun and why destroying it caused so much damage. once again a basic story element they cannot grasp. and they cannot write flawed women thats a no no. even if they did that im not watching a herd of cats or dance plant movie. just. no. but at least it might have had wider appeal.
