Word of mouth is crazy, as it seems people (in my social circles) are actually still discovering this movie too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On third viewing, CM has moved into my top 12 MCU movies, and other than the last 30 mins or so of Endgame, I enjoyed it more than Endgame.

Popular Post marvelcollector Posted July 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2019 Finally saw this yesterday. I thought it was very good. One of the better Marvel movies in fact. Brie Larson was fine in the title role. Samuel Jackson was great. The humor was unexpected and well played.

You expect funny from RDJ, from a Paul Rudd movie, from a James Gunn movie. Nobody was expecting the head Skrull, who we all thought would be a dastardly evil being especially if played by Ben Mendelhson whose portrayal of bad guys is almost cliche now, to be as funny and charming as he was in Captain Marvel. Totally unexpected. It's okay to be in denial about it. Edited July 1, 2019 by @therealsilvermane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be more expected and prominent in some, but it's always there. You are right that the Skrulls were not exactly what I expected... theCapraAegagrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the entire of Ant-Man aside, Talos's maybe three funny moments were some of the funniest ever in a MCU movie. Then throw in some unexpected funny from the usually salty Nicholas Fury, a little more unexpected funny from that Skrull science officer, some unexpected funny from Carol Danvers who we were all promised from the pre-haters would just stare lazily at the camera for two hours, an unexpected funny cameo by that Marvel Studios security guy, mix it all up and Captain Marvel was unexpectedly funnier than what we were expecting.

Your grammar is killing me. Nick Fury has been quipping since The Avengers. When was Carol Danvers "funny"..? Also, if anyone was expecting this to not be the same as every other Marvel Studios film, then... Exactly how many MCU films have they even seen? Even the more-somber films like The Winter Soldier and Infinity War were chock-full of humor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend who's an English teacher concurs with me. I know it's not wrong, per se, but it's the least-correct version and it's grinds my gears.
