CAPTAIN MARVEL v.2 (First Critics Reviews)

[method115]

Thanos didn't even bother to use it vs Hulk and after Thanos bitchslapped Hulk, Thor attacked Thanos from behind and Thanos made quick work of him again without the stone.

I'm leaning towards him not using the stone when he smacked up Thor off-screen

So apparently the power stone in the comics gives you greater strength and durability even without being used. Simply possessing it gives you these powers. With that said I saw on reddit that the Russos said Thanos did not use it against Hulk. During some sort of movie commentary. So it could be the same for Thor.

In IW, they made a point to make a stone glow when Thanos was using it.

Also @DM1982, now that I think about it, Thor cheated with Stormbreaker. Thanos was enduring the intensity of all 6 stones and was caught off-guard. He sucker-punched Thanos while he was warming up. That's a DQ

So Thanos is 2-0 against Thor

 

[MikeMcMann]

Feige said she's going to be the strongest superhero in the MCU (yeah even more powerful than Thor) so it's certainly possible

That said if she does i don't think she will do it alone 1 vs 1. She may land the final blow but it if i had to bet i'd say that every Avengers will get a shot in and either Marvel or Hulk will finish the job

I stand by my guess (and its only a guess as we have had little indication).

Thanos will be doing his things and have all the remaining main stream Avengers on the ropes once again. It will look like another defeat. She will be fighting with them and also getting pummeled.

Then, like Thor tapping into his unknown deeper powers when Hela was about to finish him, she will tap into her Binary 'Cosmic powers'. Powers she did not know she had or could not control prior. that will force Thanos to retreat or buy the Avengers time to regroup and to eventually win. She will not get access to those powers again, that will be left for her to explore and figure out in future movies.

they have already indicated her CBU Captain Marvel character and Binary Character will be melded in the MCU so the question is do they bring her in, in her most powerful final form, or allow that to evolve out over time and a few movies. Given MCU history I think we see it come out over time. And we know the MCU wants to go more 'Cosmic' in the future so she will likely be a big part of that link.

I also think they are creating a very clear link for her to have some contact with the Guardians in the future, maybe as they tussle with Adam Warlock, known as 'HIM''. He will be released to bring the Guardians to justice by the Sovereign but eventually set his own path. He is a big lead into further exploration of both the Cosmic and Quantum realms.

And any potential battle between "Him" and "Her" could be a SJW financial bonanza

As long as they make sure "HER" wins over "HIM" as it should be.

Yea they brought up the glowing also.

If that's the case Thanos gets DQ'd as well. Thor just got done fighting for his life on his home planet and was also caught off guard. Thanos at least made easy work of the avengers and was fresh and ready for Thor. He even tried to blast Thor with his ring and Thor sliced through it like butter.

I've honestly been leaning towards Thanos not even being the big bad in the next movie. Lots of rumors that there will be a new villain which is something that happens in the comics as well apparently after the snap.

Thor has all of Asgard to fight Thanos and lost.

Thanos fought a hard battle on Titan, then the Earth Avengers. Then he had to contend with holding all 6 stones and while he was doing that, Thor blasted him with a beam.

Come to think of it, that beam hit all of Thanos, including his crotch.



Thor needs to be suspended and fined

I've heard some critics of the Captain Marvel comics refer to her as "Carl Manvers". I never understood why until seeing some of the comics where the artist decides to draw her like this:

View attachment 529269

Someone was paid to draw that?

 

[MikeMcMann]

The team/ family aspect is greater than the sum of its parts, but Jean Grey is the best character to focus on.

With the Avengers, Guardians, regaining of Spiderman, and all the other Fox properties and building Cosmic stuff and so much other clutter in the MCU I would prefer they choose a much longer arc for the Xmen.

if we are entering phase 4, I think the major push of the Xmen should be for something like Phase 6 or after. In the meantime build up that Universe with the original characters and more terrestrial conflicts (not global threats). Treat it as an under ground war which is why you would not see much MCU, Xmen crossover.

Then by phase 6 or after you can start to assert more mainstreams roles in cross over and more as equals to other groups, fighting these type of universal threats.

but i would prefer they reboot and start here.

You are supposed to write 'no homo' after this.

The art in that entire issue was horrendous.

And I don't know where this image is from, but I found it through Google:

 

[MikeMcMann]

The best way would be to tell a manageable version of Giant Sized X-Men #1.
It would provide for an origin of the OG team (cyc, jean, angel, beast, iceman) as well as an opportunity to introduce more staple characters (storm, logan, colossus, nightcrawler).
I would recommend that it not be exact, maybe change Krakoa to the Living Pharaoh/ Monolith (which is not only cooler, but can be tied into an Apocalypse/ Sinister story for the sequel(s).

Ok i guess I should have read on before my last post.

But I feel this is now required

I'd agree with this. There's no way they start the X-men without Wolverine though that's just not going to happen and frankly wouldn't be a smart move.

Thor definitely executed a type of sneak attack.

Yes Thanos was clearly reeling as he had to absorb and reign in and control the power of all 6 Stones. It was clear that adding each Stone took a time of effort and focus to control them and to assert the will of the wielder, lest the Stones destroy the user.

Thanos had no clue that Thor had a very specific weapon, created by the Man (Dwarf) who created the Gauntlet, and who understood how the gauntlet worked and its weakness and how to create a very specific weapon meant to defeat Thanos with the Gauntlet. You can tell Thanos thought he could simply turn the incoming Hammer into butterflies or spaghetti or other with little thought but then suddenly it was on him, and then in him. He had a split second to act and made the wrong move and Thor caught him.

I still give Thor the win but there is a big * next to it. Kind of like Gonzaga catching Mirco with the head kick or Prime Ronda beating Cain. Only happens under the 'right circumstances' IMO.

Put that in spoilers for me please. Who was the big bad in the CBU after the snap?

I looked online to get more info on it but I actually can't find anything about this happening. I read it on here and I just assumed it was true. Someone said another race or something like that attacks once they see how weak are universe is post snap. It actually sounded like a great story line.

Then I saw this and was sure it was true: https://movieweb.com/avengers-4-toy-art-thanos-new-villains-bigger-threat/

So now I don't know WTF will happen.

Lol

This a street fight bro, there no rules; hence, no dq.

Plus, Thanos aint no bitch, no way he'd accept victory like that.

Thanos knows he lost that one.

Also also, you dont think Thanos and his Black Order attack on the Asgardian ship wasnt a sneak attack?

GTFO

Thanos and his crew announced himself at the end of Thor Ragnarok. He didn't sneak up.

Plus there were like 8600 Asgardians on that ship, led by fuckin Thor, Hulk and Shere Khan from the Jungle Book. Thanos was at a disadvantage and still won

First Trailer for CAPTAIN MARVEL Starring Brie Larson [Updated with 2nd Trailer]

You might as well stop posting the 'First Reviews' for Marvel and Star Wars films, because they're always shills.

Anyone else 'member the first reviews for The Last Jedi?

I 'member. I 'member very well how the critics absolutely loved it, without any criticisms within their tweets.

So 'Early Reviews' have lost all credibility for those that demand a high standard of quality.

When you decide to go round a pals, do you wait until you're at their door to text that you're coming round, then berate them cos they haven't got the tea and biscuits ready waiting?

Thanos didn't announce shit.

Asgard had just survived fucking RAGNAROK and were on their escape recouping when a well prepared Warship rolled up on their doorstep, complete with Black Order and Thanos with the POWER STONE.

Not a fair fight.

But who cares, alls fair in love and war.

Thor told Thanos he'd kill him for what he'd done. Thanos left Thor alive on the Asgardian ship.

Thor announced his arrival back on earth with a big ol blast of lightening, which Thanos recovered from instantly. He had a full set of fucking Infinity Stones and Thor one shotted his ass with an axe.
