Captain Marvel (Boden/Fleck, March 8, 2019) Movie • Page 28

I've never heard of it being considered a negative term and it's similar to host/hostess, waiter/waitress, steward/stewardess, etc...

 

I know the airlines haven't referred to them as steward/stewardess for a while now… it's just flight attendant (or another gender-neutral word.) Anyways, not trying to detract from the convo, just wanted to point out my mistake. Sorry! :)

 

…and to be fair, I haven't heard it referred to negatively, but I think most of my friends who act, women and men alike, just say "actor" now.

 

All good haha. I still say actress because I didn't know that was even a thing not to do now. But I always assumed they just had separate terms for the purpose of the award shows anyway.

 

I'm probably going overboard but just wanted to cover my butt since I know we're all progressive here and I hate making dated faux pas.

 

I'll have to make note for myself for future episodes. I'm always looking for more guests, so if you ever want to hop on the podcast, feel free to hit me up.

I already don't recall if I mentioned it in the episode, but I think they're setting up a lot of the future stuff with this movie, so I'm excited for what's coming post-Endgame. I'm ready to read all of the comics to try to figure out which stories they'll use going forward too haha.

 

Would love to! If you don't have anyone slated for End Game, would love to chat about that (or Far From Home) when they come out. Marvel is what I nerd out on, but happy to discuss anything really.

 

Is this real life? The metal gymnastics involved with that group of people… never ceases to amaze.

 

I do have someone for Avengers already, but I'll shoot you a message and we can definitely work something out. I have a bunch of non-MCU Marvel movies that I haven't done yet.

 

Didn't it make like $450 million?

 

It had around a 70% drop today, but so did Guardians V2.

Seeing it tomorrow night.

 

‘Captain Marvel’ Posts Marvelous $11M+ Monday, Eyes Super $70M Second Weekend

 

Gotta wonder what these fucking idiots are going to say when we get a Kamala movie.

 

probably spontaneous combustion of all incels.

 

If they harm any of my Champions kids,

I will fight every single one of them

 

support Kamala btw

 

It grossed $500 million worldwide today

 

I expected it to do really well domestically, but it's nice to see it's performing really well in international markets as well.

 

This was fantastic. Definitely up there with the better origins of Marvel. Can't even gather too many thoughts cause I'm just grinning at how bad ass it was.

 

Gonna see this tomorrow. Don't rly care much for superhero stuff but on a Brie Larson kick and this looks quite fun

 

it didnt feel a whole lot like a superhero movie imo which I think is why I liked it

 

honestly one of the best MCU origin stories and one of my top/favorite Marvel films to date. i need to make time to see it a second time soon. the very beginning is kinda slow for me and isn't super interesting (was really disappointed in how little time we're given with that whole Kree attack force thing) but after Carol gets to earth everything gets better

 

Star Wars SHOCK: Did Captain Marvel star Brie Larson tease she’s becoming a Jedi?

That, or Patton Oswalt's plan from that Parks and Rec episode is coming true

 

I had such a good time with this. I was only 3 in 1995 so the nostalgia isn’t quite up there for me but I did get a little emotional at the “Come As You Are” music cue. I really would love some more flashback stuff in later MCU movies of Carol’s human life- I want to spend some time with that version of her! I think it would help set her up a little better.

I will say it’s a shame that we’re dedicating so much page space to these ding dongs trying to act like the movie is a failure. They’re dominating the convo everywhere else, maybe let’s not give them the attention here?
