######I think it still shows how relatively unimportant he and CM are considering I genuinely believed that could have been his name.

Would’ve been nice to have gotten villain skrull. There’s technically potential for it, but with the political statements Disney was seemingly going for with Captain Marvel, I doubt it

I’m thinking Captain Marvel 2 could introduce someone on the same power-scale as Danvers, probably Moonstone, which could be really cool to watch. Meanwhile, Skrulls could easily be saved for an Avengers movie.

i’ve been watching these movies in theaters since iron man came out when i was in 5th grade. i’ve loved every single one (even the mediocre ones), but i feel like after endgame, i’m at a spot where i’m okay with missing a few. i’ll probably stay posted on spider-man, i love anything taika does so i’ll check out thor, and i’m looking forward to doctor strange 2 and blade, but the rest of them… i might skip them. it’s been a wild ride.
I feel the same way. I didn’t see every single film in the Infinity Saga in theaters, but Endgame does have that “end-of-an-era” feel to it, with Far From Home acting as a nice little epilogue. I think there’s a good chance that I’ll still see most of the upcoming films (they are, after all, among the only things I find interesting at the movies nowadays, aside from Star Wars and other franchises), but I’m okay with not going to the actual theater as much, and waiting to read reviews and purchase/stream the films after they are released.
Saw far from home yesterday. Loved it
the illusion scenes were great, JK Simmons was awesome, and the secret identity reveal was totally unexpected

TBH, that’s more the fault of the higher-ups at Marvel Studios for hyping her up excessively. Kevin Feige was adamant about stating that Captain Marvel is the “strongest Avenger” and that she would be leading the team post-Endgame, but the Russo Brothers understood that you can’t really give her the same role in this film as everyone else, for a few reasons:
Firstly, she’s too powerful. If she was involved in the entire film, facing villains lesser than Thanos, it would make almost no sense for any conflict in the movie to end in defeat. In addition, her presence could have also screwed up the Time Heist, as she wasn’t around at the times the Avengers traveled to.
Secondly, this is a movie about the original six Avengers, primarily. Even other characters who joined them, like Rhodey, Ant-Man, etc., took a bit of a back seat. Captain Marvel has only been in one film thus far, so it seems strange that she should be given a larger role than the established heroes of the MCU, and I’m sure many fans would’ve felt that the originals were cheated if she had been constantly saving the day.
Overall, I think Marvel jumped the gun with their excessive promotion of Captain Marvel. Perhaps they felt that they needed to push her because her character is not as popular in the comics, but the way they did it made her prominence seem forced, as if they were trying to exert her over the original heroes without finishing their stories first. It’s not Captain Marvel’s fault as a character or a film, but the Studio did make her entrance feel a bit intrusive, whereas other heroes who ended up playing large roles, like Dr. Strange, were introduced more organically. Even Spider-Man, Marvel’s most popular hero, wasn’t made out to be the most important aspect of Civil War, so his appearance felt much less invasive than Captain Marvel’s did.

That’s so extremely well-said, I think you hit the nail on the head.

I’ve had a theory about the meteor that struck earth that’s buried underneath wakanda. What if it’s actually a shedded scale from jormangundr the world serpent and wakanda has been unknowingly been working with a scale.

Somebudy plz expln.
That would be pretty cool. I just thought of something:
If people like Doctor Strange can control alternate universes (or pocket dimensions), then can the Space Stone affect those universes? Or could everyone potentially be saved by being taken to a wizard’s universe where the Infinity Stones hold no power?

We’ll just saw the new ant man and while it was decent it still feels like they had no idea where to go after endgame.
Quantumania wasn’t that bad but [spoiler] the final battle here against this kang felt way too huge for the first kang movie. I mean in this first movie you had a redemption sacrifice moment, 2 unexpected Allies setups, Scott possible sacrificing everything to win, and a whole rebellion fighting against kang.
I get there are multiple kangs but this movie felt so huge I almost question how they’re going to be able to top it when we finally get to the multiverse endgame. I suppose it shows how powerful kang is that it takes all that to kill one of him but it still felt too big. [/spoiler]
