Well do you have it or do you need it?! I'm not gonna go all the way out there to measure something you're not sure about!

Y'all are fools if you don't think Thanos is going to wipe everyone out by singing 7th Element.

Link seems broken or it's region blocked. Here's a different one:

Looks like a solid film. Don't really like Fury recruiting a kid but then again he is cut off from his regular resources.

Never thought I'd see a fight between Mysterio and Hydroman... Is it Hydroman? thought I saw sandman as well. Could be some kind of hybrid movie version of the two.

Or it's all illusions???

FAIRLY certain, considering who Mysterio is and what he's always done...the big creatures are his creations and he's fighting them to seem like the hero...

You'd certainly expect tricks and mirrors or what ever modern eqivelant to make Mysterios illusions seem real but this seems way too large scale to be illusions only.

This is 100% what's happening there...in fact I'm also MILDLY convinced that's not even the real Fury, and is a Mysterio trick as well.

"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"

If they'd pull that kind of fuckery I'd love it if Fury turned out to be the chameleon.

CAPTAIN MARVEL was amazing! Great story, acting, score and everything else. Worth the wait!

Watched it yesterday, it was good.

I don't agree that it's just below Ragnarok,Winter Soldier or Homecoming, but it was really good. At least as good as Thor, Age of Ultron and the like.
Screw you all, and have a nice day!

So if you thought those films were mediocre, it's a pass then?

What? No, I don't think it's a pass. I absolutely think people should watch it in the Theater. I just don't think it was as good as the really good movies such as Winter Soldier, Ragnarok, Homecoming and GotG.

But it was good. Not being as good as the best doesn't mean it's not good.
Screw you all, and have a nice day!

Watched Cap Marvel last night.
It brought the comedy nearly as well as Ragnarok, and a solid marvel film, not top I don't think for me personally but top ten anyway.
Larson and Jackson had great chemistry.

I'd say Larson drops snark into conversation better than most anyone else in the universe so far.

But seeing her power, it's begs the question, why leave it so long to call her in???

In terms of Infinity War, it could be argued that Fury didn't really know what was going on, at least not the full extent of the situation. After all, the donut did leave New York.

But she could certainly have been useful during the whole Ultron affair. Or even the first Avenger movie. So yeah...You've got a point there.
Screw you all, and have a nice day!

You could hand wave it by saying she was just dealing with a more pressing galactic threat.
