Nah, it's because Brie Larson is an absolutely miserable a-hole and absolute bitchy count of a woman.

She has the personality off a dull rock and it rubs people the wrong way, especially when she goes all SJW on us.

Take Jennifer Lawrence or the girl who plays Supergirl on the CW, they're both big lefties but they're some of the most personable people you could ever meet and really enjoy being around.

People love Gal Gadot, Scarlet Jo, and the Olsen girl.

It has 0 to do with the sex of the character.

Its her concave booty. That is why people dislike her.

Nah. Though she doesn't have a lot of junk in the trunk. Some dislike her because she comes across as a jerk in interviews. Others just don't care for the way the character is played.

I think the issue is that character and actress combined just do not come across as likable.

Which can be a death blow for any hero, male or female. Folks have mentioned Buffy the Vampire Slayer in this thread and I'm sure the last season or two of that show soured a ton of people on the character. She wasn't likable anymore.

Its one of the reasons Sarah Michelle Gellar pulled the plug on the series.

She isn’t relatable, is arrogant and overpowered, brought zero humor to the table, and was just dropped haphazardly into a franchise full of characters fleshed out for over a decade now as the ultimate deus ex machina.

Pretty easy to see how people can dislike her entry even without politics being brought into it.

Wrong. It's because Bree Larson is a super c.unt and cardboard actress.

Plenty of women have had plenty of kickass roles and people love them. People don't respect this iteration of Captain Marvel because the casting sucked arse.

Let’s briefly compare Capt Marvel to other cocky MCU characters (pun intended):

Iron Man— cocky, smart, and rich. Learns humility, stops war profiteering, devotes time and riches to save others, nearly dies from the device that keeps him alive, struggles with alcohol, anger, PTSD, eventually becomes monogamous. Has an arc.

Dr. Strange—cocky, smart, and rich. Man of science learns humility and spirituality, loses everything he has, struggled with recovery and frustration, becomes selfless. Willing to spend eternity in a loop to save everyone. Has an arc.

Thor—cocky, powerful, and spoiled. Learns about humility, honor, respect and responsibility. Has powers taken from him until he earns them. Has an arc.

Capt. Marvel—smug, stoic, and super OP. Has no faults. Doesn’t learn anything except that her male superior is a liar and held her back. Becomes even more powerful. Bland arc, if there even is one.

There’s a clear distinction.

Captain America doesn’t have many faults, but he’s not OP. Plus he’s humble and has a do-gooder type of innocence.

Even if you ignore Brie Larson’s political activism and the obvious shoehorning of this character/story into this universe, you’re still stuck with an unlikeable character and a meh story. Plain and simple. Wonder Woman was great. The End
