CAPTAIN MARVEL'S ENDGAME

Image
Avengers Endgame bought the return of Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel in her second film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as she joins the Avengers team her second time out. So spoilers for Avengers Endgame ahead, as we are going to discuss Captain Marvel in the film, and her future in the MCU. Recap of Captain Marvel in Endgame In the post-credit scenes of Avengers Endgame, Carol Danvers arrives on Earth and meets the Avengers who have found the pager she gave Nick Fury. Carol Danvers flies through space and finds the Benetar with Tony and Nebula inside, as she flies them back to Earth. Carol then goes with Nebula, and the Avengers (minus Tony) to Titan II to get the stones from Thanos. The team takes finds Thanos, and learn that the stones were destroyed. Thor then goes for the head and kills Thanos. Five years later, Carol calls in Captain Marvel with a new suit and haircut as she tells Natasha that she has been policing the deep reaches of space. In the third act...

AVENGERS ENDGAME TRAILER BREAKDOWN

Image
Hey everyone, with no warning, Marvel has dropped the new trailer for Avengers Endgame today, as we get a closer look at the team back together, more action from the first half of the film, and the solution to stop Thanos once and for all. Slight spoilers ahead for Captain Marvel in this, so you have been warned. In the opening scene of the trailer, we see previous shots from Iron Man I of Tony's origin in becoming Iron Man. "It's felt like a thousand and years since I got out of that cave." I am assuming that Tony is still adrift in space in the Benetar with Nebula, and is making a recording to Peper through the Mark L helmet. Tony says that he has one last "surprise". Since this message is to Pepper I am guessing that Tony is referring to the Rescue armor that he has made for her getting activated being the surprise, which is rumored to appear in Endgame thanks to toy leaks. In the comics, the Rescue armored is piloted by Peper and is used prim...

CAPTAIN MARVEL POST CREDIT SCENE BREAKDOWN

Image
With Captain Marvel coming out, we got two post-credit scenes which tease and teased the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Spoilers ahead for the post-credit scenes of Captain Marvel, which there are two of. So let's breakdown the two post credit scenes, and all that they hold. In the mid-credit scene, we see the pager Nick Fury had in the Avengers Facility. Meanwhile, and unshaven Steve Rogers looks at a hologram of a counter of everyone who went missing as a result of the snap. The total missing human population on Earth is 3.2 billion and counting. There are also individual country counters around a map of the world, counting the millions of missing individuals. Steve says that "This is a nightmare"  which blonde hair Black Widow responds "I've had better nightmares." The pager turns off, and Rhode tells Steve and Natasha. Steve asks Banner if he can turn it back on, and he says that he doesn't even know who is receiving the signal. Black...

CAPTAIN MARVEL NON SPOILER REVIEW

Image
Well, after an eight-month hiatus from Marvel Studios films, we are here with the debut of Captain Marvel, directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck. This is a non-spoiler review of the film, I will have a review full of spoilers coming out later this weekend. So let's get into it. Captain Marvel is set in 1995 and focuses on Kree warrior Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) discovering her past on Earth and as an air force pilot, as she attempts to put a stop between an intergalactic war between the Kree and the Skrulls, with the help of pet cat, Goose, and a young SHIELD agent, Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), and other allies from her past. One of the biggest stigmas around the film is that it is more or less trying to push a political agenda. I personally didn't see that to a degree, and I feel like that has been blown out of proportion. The film plays on the theme of identity, and the idea of being true to yourself. Maybe people thought about that because of one of the music cues,...

CAPTAIN MARVEL TRAILER 3 BREAKDOWN

Image
Hey everyone, we have new footage for Captain Marvel which is coming out in two months. The trailer fixes some issues which the previous trailers raised, that being in terms of the darker tone, and the lack of character from Brie Larson as Carol Danvers. This trailer fixes that by giving us more of Carol and some spectacular new footage with finished special effects. So let's just get into the trailer. So the first scene in this trailer we see Carol meet up with Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) in a bar in what appears to be an isolated area. The two trade some quips, so at this point in the film, it seems like the two have established a friendship, placing this a little after Fury picks Carol up from the Blockbuster. I am guessing that Carol may have driven to see her pilot pal Maria Rambeau (Lashana Lynch) who she may have remembered from one of her "flashes". I am assuming that when Carol visits Maria in 1995, when the film takes place out of the flashbacks, Mar...

CAPTAIN MARVEL TRAILER 2 BREAKDOWN

Image
Hey everyone, it is here, the trailer for Captain Marvel, which shows off more of the story and Carol Danvers as a hero and as a person compared to the previous teaser. There are a few things to unpack from this trailer, which include the conflict of the film, and a few of the characters, and how parts of the plot link to the wider MCU. So let's get into it. The trailer opens up with the at least the eighth best punch in the MCU, where we see Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) (Kree name "Vers"), fresh on Earth in 1995 on the train where she punches the old lady in the face, who is a Skrull. We see the fight play out with Carol eventually winning and shocking a group of passengers. Remember, this was the mid 90's, no one had cell phones to record any of this. However, there are going to be more Skrulls on this train, as later in the trailer we see Carol chase someone on top of the train later in the trailer. While that scene was playing we hear mid-tier SHIELD a...
