So what do you think of the trailers? Were you even interested in this movie before you thought some people were "melting?"



I personally think they pushed the "LOOK! We have a female driven superhero movie coming out!" narrative a little too strongly.

I'm fine with a woman being a badass hero. You don't need to make it such an obvious social agenda.

She was last seen at 23% and so RT shills went and removed it. Can no longer vote.



So, you don't want to see the movie because Rotten Tomatoes removed a bunch of clearly troll reviews?

having End Game cone out a month later is probably not helping.

The tag line of the most recent trailer is "There's a new captain". That is an obvious and direct dig towards Captain America. frick that

I was fine with the trailers, and I'm sure I'll end up watching the movie at some point. The secret invasion part of the story could be cool and draw into some old Marvel comics storylines.

I think BL's complaints about the make-up of critics was just a cynical attempt to disarm any potential criticisms.

It's marketing. They did the same thing with Wonder Woman.

And then every little girl wanted to be Wonder Woman for Halloween that year (my daughter included)

If CM really does tank, it could have calamitous consequences for the cinematic comic book era.




Marvel would be in a hole because they have Endgame already finished, its not like they can recast the role of Captain Marvel. I could see, maybe, a last second reedit to reduce Brie's screen time if she's really bad. But it might be that she just looks wooden in this movie, the Russo brothers might have gotten a top notch performance out of her.

CM can time travel. She is going to be huge in End Game with going back and helping stop Thanos.

I'm just curious to see how it sets up for End Game.

This isn't the first time I've experienced you being a bitch. That's a verifiable scenario that you created with your posts. If you don't want to be treated like a bitch, don't act like a bitch.

I'm looking forward to it as well. The secret invasion aspect could be a cool new narrative for sure.

I'm not normally triggered by an actor's political stance. I judge them by the quality of their work

I did preface that with being obnoxious.

But it's just a stupid thing to put in the trailer. It's a blatant nonsensical line aimed at shitting on Captain America.

Larson has no shot at anchoring a franchise. If they're getting rid of Evans and Downy Jr and think the new franchise anchor is Larson then Disney has really lost its damn mind.

And it has nothing to do with being a woman. It has to do with being a shitty actress. Plenty of awesome women could've had that role.

But to me that's lazy marketing. WW was gonna sell product because the movie featured a gorgeous badass doing badass things within a badass backstory. Girls would have loved it no matter what just like they did when the TV show was out.

You are way overthinking this. Isn't End Game going to be Chris Evans' last MCU movie? That's what the line is referencing. It's not a shot at Captain America in any way shape or form to anyone who isn't just courting controversy.

If the Rock made comments, and people purposely mischaracterized his comments to satisfy their need to be outraged, I'd make fun of those people too.

In California perhaps... There are better ways to energize customers without alienating certain demographics.
