Can Captain Marvel replicate that? I highly doubt it. But I bet they will blame the audience if it fails to do well.

I mean, I don't doubt they intend to feature her, but they're not going to force it to their own detriment. I feel like I come on here and say this every couple months, but the driving force of these decisions isn't SJWism, it's money. Wonder Woman made money. Black Panther made a shitload of money. The market is dictating that diversity sells. [Reply]

From want I understand she'll be as or even more powerful in comparison to the comics.
Unlike every other MCU hero who are less powerful to their comic counterpart in an attempt to humanize them so they can be more relatable. [Reply]

They want her to have Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man popularity
Ok so from fun loving billionaire philanthropist that grew a conscious to a brooding young woman. Based on the previews, I see nothing fun about her character at all that would draw me in to care.
I hope this movie is better than I expect because I'm just not seeing her as the leader of the Avengers. [Reply]
Nobody cares about my opinion, but I would love for live action comic films to die already.
Into the Spiderverse was incredible and I hope that is the direction future comic films move toward. Not necessarily the same animation style or the humor, but into a medium that is freer to do the things that comics can do. [Reply]
