Captain Marvel - March 8, 2019

[Sassafras]

Thor has been out of the loop for a while; I don’t know the in-universe explanation of how she found them, but I imagine she has connections and resources as she’s an interplanetary kinda gal.

Well originally finding Thanos she said she knew some beings who might have a clue, more or less. *Shrug* IMO Feige made a big deal of CM - even introducing the character in a forced way right before EG - with totally bad timing.

Spoiler

Then they could either make a huge deal of her in EG - which many including me were ready to riot over - or, IMO, handle her as well as the Russos did. E.g. she's a power for sure, saves Tony, but I didn't have a problem with her at all in EG.

Kinda ironic after the hype overdrive tho that apparently Disney is gonna kick back and think things over re upcoming movies, so who knows if there will ever be another CM movie. IMO they really should've just saved her for Marvel's next phases; introducing her in a BP or Spidey movie or something, maybe.

She really was an outsider in AEG wasn't she.

Spoiler

None of the Avengers warmed to her save for Thor's one comment when she was first standing there. No one really celebrated her return or really even directly addressed her, not even an extra moment with Fury, and out of the entire roster of MCU heroes she was the one who didn't take part in Cap's "Assemble" which might be the most damning right there.

As much hate as CM gets here, she did get a cheer from the audience when she appeared in EG on both of my viewings. Considering my 2nd viewing had a more subdued audience (barely reacted to the film), her getting a cheer especially towards the end of the film says that maybe the negative reactions to her and her solo film are mostly in smaller circles.

Cap did call her by name requesting for backup.

Yeah the crowd cheered for her return during my opening night viewing too. It was a pretty awesome moment and I'll repeat I don't hate her character I'm just glad that she didn't upstage the founding members of the team. Well I'm glad that she didn't upstage Cap, Tony, Thor, BW, and HE at least, lol.

I just think the character’s intro and development are rushed, so I just don’t care about her.

If they take some time over the next few films it’ll be fine.

Just an awkward and badly timed intro.

My thoughts are that Carol was already at the Avengers' base when someone became aware of Tony and Nebula's whereabouts and then went back out into space to find them. Maybe the ship was transmitting a distress signal and Rocket was able to track the ship that way? After finding its location, Carol was the best option to attempt a rescue. Given her powers, she would will also be able to power the ship back up (to some extent) to aid in the trip home.

Thought that:

Spoiler

She was just out and about - mentions helping a lot of other planets - and maybe just picks up on some energy signal from the ship - since she has powers which I assume means some sort of enhanced senses. For me it's one of the things I don't need spelled out - her appearance starts with a glow so assume she is traveling fast, too - between planets? I could even have seen a surviving Ravager crew running into Tony and Nebula, but the writers didn't go that way.

I think this is correct. In the Captain Marvel post-credits scene she arrives at the Avengers facility expecting to find Nick Fury and instead finds Cap, Widow, Banner etc who had been continuing to broadcast her signal. So by Endgame she has already spent time there and they have her go back out into space to find Tony.

Exactly... That post scene was before the events of EG. So apparently she was a little late to the party and arrived just after the battle at Wakanda when they all went back to Avengers compound to lick their wounds. We never saw any introductions.

Also, she is not an Avenger. Just because she's part of the group, she was never officially made an Avenger. At least not that we ever saw. I'm glad she wasn't in the line up with Cap's "Avengers Assemble" line..

Thor wasn’t his overweight self yet at that point. He was still with the group.

The one who the crowd really cheered for on his return during my viewing was Spider-Man.

Yeah, but I feel like he spent most of his time between Asgard, Earth and the odd other Asgard-related realm.

Marvel seems more connected to the galactic community, kinda like the Guardians. Could be wrong; it’s not like Thor didn’t get around.

Oh heck yeah, mine as well.

Same. We all lost it even though we expected it. Holland is great.

Over here the crowd cheered for CM, Strange and Spidey the most.

Not surprised given the site that's coming from. Anyone can make any petition but only sites like those will make it news.

Boy don’t know why Brie is creating so much SM attention lately

Makes perfect sense to me. When you’re constantly looking to cultivate new crops of victims, identity politics will invariably cannibalize itself. There’s always going to be overlap.

Not many people cheered in my viewing for CM actually that I recall. It was mostly for Cap, when Spidey returned, and then when Iron Man showed Thanos that he had swiped the Infinity Stones.

There may have been cheers actually when she appeared to take down Thanos’s ship, but I can’t vividly recall if there were.
