I give them enough respect to not assume that they're just going to turn it into her saving the day. I think she'll play a big part in whatever it is that defeats him (something to do with her powers specifically) as they do need to pass the torch in a significant way, but I don't think they're just going to pull a "her she comes to save the day!" pile of crap. I don't extend this respect or consideration past Endgame though.

Either way, Endgame is likely going to be the last MCU movie I watch unless they do some more Cap or Taika movies. I'm not interesting in a decade-long series of movies based on and led by The Savior of Africa: Black Fantasy (and his band of barking gorillas), and Captain Misandry. If I wanted to be preached to by ideologues, I'd go browse reddit

dont worry, DC looks like they are getting their shit together. sort of. Aquaman was tits and the spinoff, The Trench might be fucking sweet.

Was never a DC fan outside of Batman, and that will never change. I'm not even a superhero fan, just a Sci-Fi fan which these tend to fit in with. So, I can do without them.

what i mean is, if you want a break from ID politics in your entertainment. a movie like Aquaman is a good way to go. although that Birds Of Prey movie looks like its going to suck ass because it might be even woker than Captain Marvel.

I'll probably watch Aquaman at some point, but I'll be surprised if I can get past the whole "Why is Ronon Dex in the ocean? And why has his acting not improved in 14 years?"

The only thing that would have made this movie greater is if Aquaman was actually riding a seahorse.

Captain Marvel is just a bigger character than Widow and can fill the shoes that Captain America is gonna leave when he is gone.
She can barely fill out her pants backside, there is no chance of her filling out anyones shoes.
Every time i watch Captain Marvel trailer and see that ridiculous mohawk it rips me right out of the movie. Also her line delivery " I will not fight your war, i will end it" and that other one " Higher Further Faster" make her sound like a petulent child and not a warrior hero.

Have you been living offplanet last 10 years and havent seen atlantis?

I'm pretty sure the bland female native alien woman in Atlantis was the offbrand Teal'c. Then McKay was their Carter, so Jason Momoa was their Dr. Jackson except it was the Blacklist version of James Spader (voice of Ultron) instead of Michael Shanks.

Anyways back on topic... her origin story is set in the past and Endgame is clearly time travel related so I would expect the majority of her roll to be setting something up in the timeline, probably along with Cap's back story revisits.

It's pretty good. In it, aquaman bangs a tiny blonde woman and doesn't understand how infection works.
