So far I think it's worse the second time . Brie Larson was flat out a bad casting choice. Ben Mendelsohn has been overused in movies lately (Star Wars, Ready Player One and now this) .SLJ is pretty good in it though. So you interrupted your movie to let the world know that Carol Danvers is blowing her second chance with you? Something tells me you’re not really committed to this relationship...

Gatsby77 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 What's it at now? $300 million+ better than Wonder Woman? Not too shabby... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though then when you look at the movie-goer ratings, the differences are substantial on Metacritic - stronger on IMDb. Being part of that massive franchise really paid off financially for Captain Marvel, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Cozmo-One Posted June 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2019 Was finally able to rent it and watch it again. Thought it was great (again) and is in my top 10 superhero/comic book movies. Favorite part is probably Spoiler the montage/flashbacks of when she kept getting knocked down while being held prisoner with the Kree Supreme Intelligence. She finally learned that her humanity (or human-ness) can be a strength allowing her to always rise back up and ultimately realize her full powers. Looking forward to the next one!

I've never thought the most embarrassing thing was to be corrected - If I'm wrong, I'm wrong - I've always thought the most embarrassing thing would be to carry on saying something that was clearly incorrect. It's not even really a grammar thing. It's more of a Emily Litella thing. Edited June 24, 2019 by Chuck Gower Comicopolis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
