So, much to the chagrin of the neckbeard contingent - and I mean, after racking up over $1bn globally, a CinemaScore A rating, and critical acclaim from anyone who wasn't streaming from their mum's basement on YouTube while screaming for her to bring them more meatl...

 

Ahem.

 

...there is a second Captain Marvel movie, this time teaming up with Monica Rambeau and Kamala Khan.

 

 

...and I think I'm going to enjoy it.

 

Spoiler
  • The weird power-interchange / location-swapping behaviour is as yet unexplained. 
  • Nick has some very fancy new toys in this and an org called... SABER?
    (EDIT: do we think this occurs sequentially after the Secret Invasion?)
  • Quantum entanglement (or a scientificy technobabblish handwave thereof) may be involved.
  • 💕😻🐈GOOSE IS BACK.🐈😻💕
  • ...and she may have brought her kids. (Yes, despite being ginger, Goose is a girl, and Flerkens have big litters once they feel safe enough. According to canon, 80-100 at a time.)
  • I don't know where that very fancy beachside town is but I'm already checking the property papers.
  • Bollywood dance number? Yes, why the hell not. I mean, I only know the changing-lightbulbs bit but I'd give it a go.
  • Kamala is going to annoy the hell out of everyone, including our two other leads. Probably me too. But.

 

Let the (polite, balanced and properly moderated) flaming commence!

    (EDIT: do we think this occurs sequentially after the Secret Invasion?) Yeah, that's weird, seeing as the proper term is S.W.O.R.D..  Either SWORD is one of those bits of Marvel that's still in the hands of another company, or Nick is using SABER as a reference to SWORD (maybe because of SWORD is compromised by Skrulls?)
  • Quantum entanglement (or a scientificy technobabblish handwave thereof) may be involved.   "Quantum entanglement involved."  Fixed that for ya.  Honestly, Marvel was putting this together before seeing the numbers on the latest Ant movie.  "Quantum" is their favorite thing.  It is the MCU term for "science magic", and is used concurrently with "chaos magic", "arcane/sorceror's magic", "witches magic", "Asgardian magic" and a few other I forget at the moment.

  • ...and she may have brought her kids. (Yes, despite being ginger, Goose is a girl, and Flerkens have big litters once they feel safe enough. According to canon, 80-100 at a time.)  Not going to lie, a space station full of Flerkens, especially young, hungry ones with lack of self control, is more terrifying than a space station with Alien xenomorphs.
  • I don't know where that very fancy beachside town is but I'm already checking the property papers.
  • Bollywood dance number? Yes, why the hell not. I mean, I only know the changing-lightbulbs bit but I'd give it a go.  I just hope they're not suggesting it has anything to do with Kamala.  Not because I care about the character, but because I care about consistency. Unless I've missed something (I might have) and those dance numbers represent Muslim Pakistanis as well as Indians... well they've already messed with their Mary Sue a lot. 
  • Kamala is going to annoy the hell out of everyone, including our two other leads. Probably me too. But.  "...going to..."   Too many years too late for "going to".

I'm debating whether to watch it or not.  I like Photon, Nick, and Goose.  I'll not list all my dislikes, except to say [EDIT, EDIT...EDIT, EDIT, EDIT] Okay, maybe some flaming.  I'll cool my jets.

 

If I watch it, it will be for Photon, Nick, and the Lovecraftian humor that is Goose.  I could watch a whole movie focused on just Photon.  She was one of the better bits of Wandavision. (I'd really like Jimmy Woo back for the fun, if so.) More importantly, if I watch any Marvel show I don't care for, it's in order to gain MCU continuity before the next big project I do want to see.

 

On the bright side, with the outcome of this movie, every Avenger might get his/her own cat to take into battle with them.

Trailer looks fun.  Of course I'm going to see it.

 

Though, I feel with that intro it forgets it was released before Avengers and 46% Audience score.  My own thoughts, not bad, not my fave, one of the best soundtracks, tho, I didn't think the sound tracked made sense for Captain Marvel, seeing as how she would likely be more 70's and 80's music, not 90's music.  How was Come As You Are, a 90's song, even stuck in her head?  😛

She borrowed Star Lord's Zune?

 

Didn't get that until 2014/2015. 

But I'll also say, for the year the movie was taking place and when in that year, some of the songs wouldn't have been around yet.  😛

 

However, she was taken in 1989.  As a pilot, while not naval, may have gone for Danger Zone 😛
