IMO the whole marketing for this has been a cry of desperation, especially the last trailer sadly trying to give CM the weight of a Tony Stark or Steve Rogers. *Cringe*.I'm not a hater or anti Captain Marvel or whatever but the ending credit scene is such a cry of desperation lol. I actually find it funny. They really thought they could just get by with z listers and plot points that went nowhere without consequence for so long lol.
Look, with all due respect to Zurdo, you can't compare the blank-faced CM with beloved characters built up from successful comic runs and a series of successful films. "Black girl power" WTF is that like the rousing success of BP2and the non-appearance in this film of that awful armor built by whats-her-name.
I don't have some huge hate for CM & co. but the writing, build-up and narratives of these/this MCU film *meh*. Please make it stahp. Gotta admit still tasting the tang of the awful Secret Invasion (thank gawd for Loki) but the biggest appeal for me will be the cats. Can't see running to a theater for this. Maybe if I've got nothing better to do and it's a cheap matinee. 'Coz you know how a trailer is supposed to make you intrigued, if a villain is in a trailer you WANT to see more? I'm not supposed to be more happy about Goose than anything. And all this multiverse &^% just seems like "we can't write a grounded, basic story any more; we've milked time travel; so let's just multiverse everything so we have an excuse to throw stuff at a screen and hope it sticks, including shamelessly ripping off lines from other films."
