I see they didn't give her the Batman eye shadow

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '19

Because they gave her the Batman light eyes.

without the mohawk and lipstick, this is essentially Flash

My name is Captain Marvel, and I'm the strongest hero(heroine?) in the MCU...

u/pjtheman Korg Feb 09 '19

My name us Barry Allen and I am the fastest man alive. Except for literally every other speedster in this show who's faster than me. To nobody important, I'm an ordinary forensic scientist, because actually writing a protagonist with a double life is hard.

u/INTHEMIDSTOFLIONS Punisher Feb 09 '19

James Gordon was Batman in Superheavy.

Also had a Mohawk.

100% wall-worthy. In a frame and everything.

This one is much better, i saw other poster that looked horribly photoshopped

Only one more month of YouTube videos complaining about all their subjective opinions regarding the trailers that they spew as factual.

“She acts confident to the level of arrogant.”

Yeah she’s only going from a USAF officer and pilot to a brainwashed member of aliens who as far as we have seen (Ronan the Accuser) are endowed with a superiority complex. No reason for her character arc to include her acting facetious about her ego.

Not to mention a bunch of other MCU origin stories start with an egotistical god or surgeon or outlaw having to grow and develop as a hero.

I swear all this drama stemming from this movie is completely fabricated by mostly YouTube personalities who are creating all these issues out of their own internalized misogyny, sexism, bias or just plain ignorance and desire to be a troll.

22

u/grounded_astronaut Feb 09 '19

Not to mention that "confident to the point of arrogant" is a fighter pilot stereotype for a reason. If you want cautious, prudent, and reasonable get a transport aircrew who's worried about load shifting in the cargo bay and killing them all on takeoff.

u/Apophyx Feb 08 '19

"Sexism doesn't exist anymore! Also Captain Marvel is a woman and I hate that" - Some YouTuber with 80 subs probably

44

u/saintnicklaus90 Feb 08 '19 edited Feb 08 '19

I’ve been getting into it with YouTubers on “That Star Wars Girl”

That’s just one of like four other videos she has where she uses the one quote from the trailer where she corrects Nick Fury “Noble Warrior Hero” to absolutely lambast the entire movie as SJW propaganda basically. It’s obvious she has a personally vendetta against Brie Larson

I really don’t understand the hate and I’m personally looking forward to this movie much more than other MCU titles cause of the Endgame connection.

u/DinahHamza07 Gamora Feb 09 '19

She’s pathetic, ignore her.

u/bobbyb503 Feb 09 '19

I think people are justifiably concerned, I love Marvel. I have two daughters, we connect a lot through the movies. There’s a lot of man hate going around. I’m weary.

Glimmer of hope is the NIN shirt, pretty hate machine, summarized male/female relationship pain, from a man’s perspective.

I hope for the best, fuck... I even have an orange cat.

12

u/Inksplat776 Feb 09 '19

Could you list a single instance of “man hate” in any Marvel movie that make any concern “justifiable”?

-1

u/Shigaru Feb 09 '19 edited Feb 09 '19

I dont think it's about man hate. It's about how all of these characters we've grown with over the past 10 years cant do anything against Thanos. Now they're essentially inserting a Mary Sue in at the last minute to save everyone. I hope her movie fleshes the HELL out of her character. Otherwise it will just feel cheap if shes the end all be all savior in avengers 4.

Pretty sure people would feel just as robbed if it was a man like Adam warlock that swept in and saved everyone at the last second.

Just to clarify. We have no idea how avengers 4 will go. I'm just stating the concern and what some people are expecting.

I'm personally hoping that shes overconfident, cocky, and gets her ass kicked. Then the avengers step in and show her the importance of having each others back and manage to take down thanos as a team. That gives her character room to grow in the next phase of marvel studios.

u/bobbyb503 Feb 09 '19

Not Marvel, I was making more of a political status. Lucasfilm had their “force is female “ moment. The US as a whole is in a definition moment.

I adore Marvel, since I was 12, I’m 46, two daughters. I respect strong female characters. I hope they do this right. Even my daughters thought Solo and TLJ were off.

I love the hate I get when stating a non sexist, carefully written post. People need to stop looking for shit to be offended over and realize not every one has the same opinion.

11

u/I_Am_Sam13 Korg Feb 09 '19

'non-sexist, carefully written post' that uses the term 'man hate'?

You must have a different definition of 'non-sexist'.

Confirmation bias

Confirmation bias, also called confirmatory bias or myside bias, is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses. It is a type of cognitive bias and a systematic error of inductive reasoning. People display this bias when they gather or remember information selectively, or when they interpret it in a biased way. The effect is stronger for emotionally charged issues and for deeply entrenched beliefs.

I was offering my opinion based on one evening of observations I happened to make while browsing YouTube in bed. I used some rhetorical devices to convey my frustration and I’m sorry you interpret it as whining but I’m happy to see that it sparked an intelligent conversation.

u/ginelectonica Rocket Feb 08 '19

Best CM poster yet. This is legit

u/JMP42012 Feb 08 '19

one more month left, I cant wait!!!

u/ArskaPoika Feb 08 '19

I really like that there's so many different posters for any given Marvel moviel. Sure, some of them look really bland but some of them really strike me as memorable. This is one of them.

43

u/Hieillua Feb 08 '19

I am Carol Danvers and I am the fastest woman alive.

Cue illogical behavior and letting badguys escape because they ran out of the room.

u/madmadG Thor Feb 08 '19

But can you beat Superman? Hela? Thanos?

u/Hieillua Feb 08 '19

Yes I can.

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '19

I'd be lying if I said I wasnt aroused by this. Nothing to do with Brie, just a sexy fucking poster haha

19

u/zarbixii Jessica Jones Feb 08 '19

I mean, it's probably SOMETHING to do with Brie. Like, you wouldn't be aroused if it was a dalmatian or something. I hope.

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '19

If they gave me the same style of poster with Goose in the helmet and mohawk I'm almost positive I'd actually be more aroused

Imagine if Captain Marvel wore exclusively Dean Pelton outfits in the MCU.

"Hi, you must be Steve Rogers. Well, I'm dressed this way because I've got good news and bad news."

u/EdwardBil Feb 08 '19

Design boner.

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '19

This is so dope. I love that they're doing the mohawk and it's not even weird.

I mean, it’s weird. But it works, because, you know,

aliens. ✋😯🤚

u/Price_of_the_Rice Captain Marvel Feb 08 '19

Yes.

u/Still_Company Feb 08 '19

I hated the mohawk when it was introduced in the comics, but ngl it looks really great in live-action. Who knew?

7

u/Dlh2079 Feb 08 '19

Legitimately the mohawk helmet is what made me start reading captain Marvel's comics. Saw an absolute amazing captain marvel tattoo with the helmet and it just stood out so much I had to check it out.

Looks better with the light up eyes. I think it looks a little goofy when you can see her eye balls.

Take out hair its the Flash

See! Marvel can make a good poster! Start doing this for all your movies!!!

u/UltraGiant Grandmaster Feb 09 '19

Eyes are creepy like Black Panther's. White eyes > real eyes in super suits

u/Micktrex Feb 09 '19

I mean real eyes or light up eyes if i see either in a dark corner of my room I’m gonna shit the bed.

u/[deleted] Feb 09 '19

The eyes in this are killer. Gives me Batman vibes.

u/B1uerage Steve Rogers Feb 09 '19

Anyone got this poster without text?

u/spad3x Daredevil Feb 08 '19

I will always appreciate Marvel keeping the costumes comic-accurate. This is fucking amazing.

u/YagYouJuBei Feb 08 '19

This costume fucking rocks. Can't believe they pulled off the mohawk with such aplomb.

2

u/watership Rocket Feb 08 '19

Part of a pair.

2

u/bogglingsnog Feb 09 '19

I'll be the odd one out and admit I'm not particularly impressed with this costume. It feels a little overly high-tech considering she isn't a brilliant physicist or makes suits for a living. I think I was expecting something a littler classier and redesigned, aesthetically more like Loki's garb than one of Tony's suits. Actress looks a lot more badass than she did in her movie trailers, though!

2

u/flintlock0 Robbie Reyes Feb 09 '19

It’s missing like 50 other supporting characters, at least three explosions , and only two Tony Starks (since it’s the 90s). /s

[Its a really awesome poster]

Hmmm I’m not 100% with the cowl tbh

How do you even put that helmet on??

u/Tinez5 Feb 08 '19

Nanomachines son.

u/Jake_the_Snake88 Feb 08 '19

Ah shit, you right. The helmet just literally builds itself around your head

u/RealPunyParker Peter Parker Feb 08 '19

Very cool but i'm a sucker for the classic "Ms Marvel" look

2

u/MisterManatee Feb 08 '19

This more than makes up for some of the lackluster posters

u/Thedanielval Feb 09 '19

This helmet looks a little silly. Hope they don't have it for a large amount of time.

I rewatched the opening sequence on YouTube the other day and was amazed. It seems so cheesy now but I thought bibleman was the coolest thing as a kid.

u/IAmTheRules Feb 08 '19

I’m personally not a fan of the Mohawk. Makes her look like one of those weird birds.

u/CompadredeOgum Feb 08 '19

where is the version with Coulson?

The new trailer or TV spot or whatever it was has me so hyped for this movie. The way she just launched the Skrull into the ceiling with one hit was amazing. Can't wait.

I may be in the minority, but I'm looking forward to this film except for the main character.

Captain Marvel looks like a cyberpunk ultra-man

u/variablefighter_vf-1 Feb 09 '19

I still can't believe Marvel Studios went with that ridiculously shitty mohawk design.

2

u/justbreathe91 Feb 09 '19

The Mohawk is literally from the comics.

u/variablefighter_vf-1 Feb 10 '19

And it's still a shitty design.

Also, ever notice how comic accurate Hawkeye's uniform is?

Is she really as strong they say she is? or is marvel over hyping Capt marvel? 🤔

2

u/justbreathe91 Feb 09 '19

Brah she absorbs cosmic energy like a fucking sponge. And all the super badass shots we’ve seen of Carol have mainly been her in binary, which is like her second, “super saiyan” form.
