This is definitely my least anticipated Marvel movie ever and I love these things with a passion:
1) Brie Larson, as mentioned above, has no charisma. Not a fan. In the trailers, she confirms by delivering her lines awfully flat. She also does not come across as an action hero. Not athletic in her movements at all. The action scenes that we've seen so far look bad. She's not believable in the role.
2) The character and concept don't fit in the timeline they've created. You have what they are deeming the most powerful hero come in now? Especially when she was just a beeper away this whole time? Was Fury waiting for something more serious that the invasion of Earth? It makes no sense, but maybe they'll address it in the movie.
3) Captain Marvel is not a great character period. The super overpowered Captain Marvel iterations are just dumb.
So, just to clarify, you love the Marvel movies with a passion, but immediately jump to the above conclusions about how they'll use her? Her power level and its impact on Endgame? Where's the trust in the studio?
Also, this is not my usual jam at all, but this post reads like one of these toxic dude posts you see everywhere online. "Not athletic in her movements?" What sort of manufactured criticism is that? She IS athletic. It's a weird take.
Actually I agree with him ..... i'm not even a big superhero or comic fan but I see all the MCU movies mostly because my kids want to see them. I wouldn't normally bother commenting on some superhero movie (before or after release really.. i did some on BP and on WW for sure and a bit on IW probably).
1. I questioned Brie Larson from the get go.... as far as her athleticism goes it's valid to me. Gal Gadot by comparison was in the Israel military and was a combat trainer. Brie was homeschooled and raised in California doing nothing but the arts. Although you could say the same about Chris Evans I suppose but men are naturally more athletic (imho - sorry if that offends but it's true men are more athletic).
2. It is a bit of a deus ex machina to have her come in and save the world - we don't know that yet but it's a valid point knowing she is the most powerful and holding it back until now seems like a contrived reach.
3. I wouldn't know.
As to your points.... why do we have to have any trust in the studio??? I wasn't aware I owed them anything, or that they had earned any trust? I only love a handful of superhero movies and most aren't MCU so.....
I'll still see it. And as far as that goes if my expectation is low going in I'm more likely to be pleasantly surprised. I was by both WW and DP for example and I had zero expectations.
I don't know I think he had valid points - not fanboy toxicity.
