Marvel Cinematic Universe

Stan Lee rehearsing his Mallrats dialogue on the L, which both came out in 1995 and was the first Stan Lee cameo, brought a tear to my eye.

it's been talked about a lot, and obviously we'll never know. But there's a couple of theories.

1)Fury knew he had the Avengers, and if he thought they were about to lose, then he would.

2) she's so far away she wouldn't have gotten there in time anyway

3) he did, but she never responded

Overall, it's the product of having a 20 movie universe over 11 years. When you don't have everything planned out, you're gonna have plot holes

That's my opinion also. My daughter was already loving Into the Spiderverse but when the Spider-Girl showed up, the kid audibly gasped. I looked at her and her jaw was on the floor. She leaned over and whispered "does that mean there's a universe where the REAL Spider-Man is a girl"?!?! It's now her favorite movie.

I'm happy that all girls, my kid included, get to see themselves as the hero instead of the love interest or side-kick in a real culturally relevant movie. I remember growing up when we only had one tv, watching WWF, I had 10 different characters to root for. Important characters. My sister would cry if Miss Elizabeth wasn't on the show because that's all she had. This kinda shit matters

Exactly the same reaction from my daughter, and I woulda coulda never imagined it (her reaction). So, the next day I'm listening to some random podcast about some anthropology find in South Africa, and she starts asking me questions about doing this and that as a job, probably jobs that until the day before she would've never thought she could do, like being an anthropologist and going to south africa to make some new discovery. Almost like the idea from the movie really went deep with her (she's only 10) and that she kinda took off running with it. I woulda coulda never imagined it, especially since I wasn't a big superhero / comic book / marvel / dc nerd back in the day. I never realized the impact and the influence.

Goes to your point... we have lots of blindspots.

Really liked the soundtrack to "Captain Marvel" and nostalgia from the 90's. Good movie.

About "Captain Marvel", Carol Danvers and Nick Fury:

Going into the movie I was ready for MCU to go completely off the comics and have Nick Fury and Carol Danvers to have some sort of secret marriage or love child. Kind of glad that didn't happen.

All of the cars really seemed like mid-80's rather than mid-90's (although, Fury's Impala that he drove to the hanger matched the times).

Fury's line of "Lose the Flannel" made me laugh because I wore flannel during that grunge era.
