Okay @ill - you wanna provide some actual commentary instead of a bullshit rating on a post that was pretty open ended? What did you think of it? All the critics are giving it amazing reviews yet it's scoring pretty 'meh' with the audience and everyone I've talked to has said it wasn't that great.

So tell me... put your 'bullshit' rating where your mouth is.
because some clam is the feature.

I don't think it needs to be spelled out for ya, pal.

I'll just keep catching ones that pop up on Netflix.

And I'll probably keep seeing trailer scenes that make sense because I've already seen why in other movies.
it was a different avengers, as the poster seemed lost, i was going for a different angle, explaining it just ruins it, so thanks for that.

also, the disney/netfix run is coming to an end, so.... i'll message you a site when that time comes, if you'd prefer that method.

Actually end credit scene #2 reveals a major plot point even if it was just a gag

When we see the cat throwing up the Tesseract on Fury’s desk that answers the question of how he came into possession of it all the way at the end credit scene for Thor 1 when we see him give it to Stellan Skarsgard’s character.

We always saw Fury giveaway the Tesseract but no movie up until now has explained how he ended up with it.

Once Goose ate it, you knew.

I thought it was funny, but I hated having to wait through all of the credits for a gag sceme (no pun intended).

Small gripe but I wish the post credit scenes were switched

Ugh, fair... I gotta admit I need to stop calling out a sex for a mediocre movie that critics rave about.. when critics may be raving about a movie simply because a big name (Marvel/Disney, etc.) is behind it.

Fuck Disney. I ain't paying anymore
i hear you. i'll keep hulu, as i'm currently with sprint, which sucks (hope the merger helps), but it's included. Prime is a way of life as well, I will say, they do add some old school shitty horror movies that I don't mind watching, Netflix does provide decent stuff or has provided decent stuff, if my parents weren't watching through my account I probably would have gotten rid of it.

and with this other offic topic post, i hope i can delude myself to why a thread on captain marvel is this long.

I used my brother's Netflix, so I don't pay for it. I do use it often, but I'm cheap enough that I probably wouldn't pay if he drops it.

Critics rave about it because it's awesome. As far as MCU movies go it's above average but the low bar here is Thor 2 and that one is miles better than something like Green Lantern or the non canon Hulk movie.

The bar was high here and it passed it.

Oh please.. critics raved about how Last Jedi was awesome and that was the worst Star Wars film of all time. I could even stomach kid Anakin more than I could that POS movie.

I disagree with this assessment. I would not say The Last Jedi was the worst Star Wars movie of all time.

I mean what would you put worse? I can at least applaud Lucas for trying to create something funny with Jar Jar (it failed), and at least those episodes pushed something innovation wise and we as an audience hadn't seen it before. What the F did Last Jedi do? Further a Mary Sue and throw AWESOME potential for light side/dark side to join up down the drain? Last Jedi could've been epic if Kylo/Rey had paired up, or if there was an interesting Luke dynamic. Instead we got porgs and a stupid plotline around uh... oh God what was his name. Oh yah Finn and Asian chubby girl. PC and the kiddies, amirite?

whatever you think, man. I just disagree.

I can't stomach watching any of the prequels a second time. I could watch the Last Jedi more than once.

That's enough for me to say Last Jedi > any of the prequels

shit, you are even trying to excuse Jar Jar...you have a full on agenda against The Last Jedi.

TLJ wasnt the worst Star Wars movie but it does look like it might have killed Star Wars. Temporarily.

Captain Marvel isn't The Last Jedi. Nothing in Captain Marvel is anywhere close to as good as the fight scene in TLJ. Captain Marvel also maintains its current universe without hurting any of its lore. Captain Marvel also values your time a lot more than TLJ which padded its plotline for no reason.

Fair enough. I don't have a full on agenda against the TLJ. That movie along with the prequels was terrible. I just thought TLJ was more terrible, had a ton of plot holes, killed our favorite characters in a shit way, and the overall plot/story made absolutely zero sense (even RTJ did that okay). It's fairly obvious that Disney tried to shoe horn in a bunch of PC messages (just look at major reviews, Plinkett, Stuckman, CinemaSins, etc.) which is fine, but when you blow up an entire universe to push that message (really, Ackbar died like he did?), F off.

Seems like you and I are going back and forth. Respect your opinion man, but disagree with it. Anyway.. :suds:

Whoa, whoa, whoa! I mean, I get not liking The Last Jedi but I will not stand by and let someone say ANYTHING is worse than the Phantom Menace. Stubbing your toe? Better than the Phantom Menace. Getting AIDS? Better than the Phantom Menace. The Holocaust? STILL BETTER THAN THE PHANTOM MENACE!!

Stand by it dude... The Last Jedi was an abomination. Worst Star Wars experience of all time. I can forgive a producer/director for a terrible film where he/she tried to develop a story. I can't forgive a produce/director for pushing a PC agenda on us, while also making a shit movie.

"But the light speed explosion was so cool!"

Yah, fuck off. Anyone that thought the light speed explosion was cool should be shot. No trial, shot.

see, I don't give a shit about any kind of PC agenda because I just don't view it that way. I see it as a movie with a diverse collection of heroes with a pretty good story.
