Millennial idiots and genxers talking about comic book hero’s

Actually, I'm a Baby Boomer, and the real Captain Marvel goes back to 1939 or so. Look at the Freeper sidebar, or Canteen personality/song threads. Freepers are lots of things.

Captain Marvel will be a big deal movie. Make no mistake.

Carol Danvers in the comics was not a bad character, at least not when she was introduced in, I’m thinking 1970’s.

The original Marvel Captain Marvel was Mar-Vell a Kree warrior who gained cosmic power before he eventually died of cancer.

As I recall Danvers was in the original Captain Marvel series and eventually gained the original’s powers. That was a long time ago.

In the MCU, apparently the Carol Danvers Captain Marvel will come out being the most powerful being in the MCU, able to move planets (at least according to the lead actor Brie Larson).

Generally, I’m not a fan of changing male characters into female characters but, in this case, I’m trying to keep an open mind.

Avengers: Infinity War ended with Thanos wiping out half of the sentient beings in the universe with a snap of his fingers after he gained the powers of the infinity gems. At the end, right before he turned to dust, Nick Fury used his secret decoder ring to summon Captain Marvel from wherever she is in the universe.

“Captain Marvel” will take place during the 1990’s with the major conflict being between the Kree and the Skulls. The Skulls are really cool because they are shape-changers, and many of the heroes who died may end up having been Skrulls. In addition, there will likely be a time travel dimension in Avengers 4, but regardless, many heroes who were obliterated will be somehow resurrected (think Spider-Man).

I’m not prejudging the character nor the first two movies in which she will appear. The mythology has held up well over time and the MCU has yet to produce a real dud. I’m willing to give it a chance.

Mine Mine Marvel.

Original member of the Merry Marvel Marching Society from the mid-1960’s.

Hollywood has been out of ideas since last Century. The only reason the Super hero movies do so well is because they are using stories from the 70’s, 80’s and early 90’s that couldn’t be done on-screen before modern CGI.

Once they burn through the past stories and start with the SJW nonsense that will be the end of the Super Hero movies and a big hit to Disney and Hollywood.

Why not make her into a lesbian abortion doctor with a vagina hat while we're at it?

Maybe they’ll start making movies with plots, dialogue, and character development...

“It must be the GMO foods.”

That was genuinely funny.
