Agreed. Honestly, I wouldn't know anything Larson has said except that it's been posted in here. [Reply]

Did they boot trolls? Did they only shut down this part for Captain Marvel?
No, they shutdown the entire piece of their website. [Reply]

My position in this thread, as it has always been, is that the movie is likely to be good based on Marvel's track record, but if it's not it'll tank.
I'm just incredibly frustrated that this thread is a shit show that has very little do to with the movie that we're supposed to be talking about, and I feel bad for those who care so much about the opinions of others that it interferes with your ability to enjoy a goddamn movie.
The end.
So you are sick of people injecting stuff that doesn't belong in a conversation about a movie if I am understanding this correctly? [Reply]

Basically. Idgaf unless they did something illegal or hurt someone in any way physically etc then that may be a reason for me to not support the movie. [Reply]

See.
This, right here, should be the preamble included in every movie. Even foreign movies, lifetime movies, and documentary films. It should run after the credits and before the first scene. And it should be slowly scrolled in that cool, fuzzy typeface with sparkles. And it should be narrated by Sam Elliot.
Thank you, Mr. DaFace. Your contributions to art and the world of cinema are appreciated.
This might be buried in here, but it cracks me up that they did an hour-long live stream of the cat just sitting around.
For anyone who knows the comics, does the cat...do something? Like, does it talk? Or otherwise is it a character in some way more than just her pet? I'm just trying to wrap my head around why people are so excited about the damn cat (and I have two cats - I'm by no means a hater of felines). [Reply]

I have a cat named Apollo who looks just like that. He puked on a pile of clean laundry last week. Fucker. [Reply]

Right. But Solo was the sacrificial lamb as recompense for Episode 8. This movie seems to just be genuinely disliked because the lead actress is using it as a political platform. Also trolling happens on the internet consistently, but I don't think it happens in such a widespread manner as people might think. I'd suspect about 70% of those "want to see" ratings are genuine and the other 30% are trolls for and against the movie. It was overwhelmingly negative. If it's so easy to downvote then wouldn't it be just as easy to upvote and cancel it out? It goes both ways. Just my $0.02 [Reply]

Chewie was Carol Danvers's pet, whom she believed to be a normal domesticated cat.[1]
When Carol, now Captain Marvel, left Earth to explore the universe, she took Chewie with her. When she encountered the Guardians of the Galaxy, member Rocket Racoon identified Chewie was a "Flerken," a dangerous alien species similar to Earth's cats. Rocket tried to kill Chewie "before it could lay eggs," but Carol interrupted his hunt.[2]
