We're going to have non-spoilery discussion posts as well, but for today, let's talk about the new Captain Marvel trailer that came out last week! Share all your thoughts and hopes and feelings!
I am excited, even if the de-aging tech is mildly terrifying. I am a huge 80s fan, but 90s era settings rarely getting love and I am excited to see it.
Sadly, the local Blockbusters went out of business a few months because the trailer came out. I would have taken amusing pictures with it. At least our indie video rental store is still doing well.
Stuff I love in this trailer: * CAROL LOOKING FUCKING BADASS. I'm weak for glowy space fighting, and she looks SO good, omg. The mohawk helmet! Just like, all her action scenes. * "I'm not gonna fight your war, I'm gonna end it." * I'm so here for all this amnesia business. Also the nonconsensual (?) body modification. * How there is zero evidence of obligatory het love interest.
I was kind of meh on the last trailer, but I love this one, and now I am so ready to see this movie. Also, I'm hoping we get lots of emotionally complicated Carol-centric fic out of it, because that is exactly my jam.
It's interesting, from an in-universe perspective, that she never got namedropped in all those years with the Avengers and SHIELD and all of that. I wonder if her time on Earth in this movie is kind of a secret, and not a lot of people know about it besides Fury? Although you'd think if a buff woman in a jumpsuit is punching unexpectedly spry old ladies on the train, word would get around.
