PCR #104 - The Marvelous Ms. Marvel

In this episode, Travis and X talk all about Captain Marvel. This
episode contains a bunch of spoilers, so fair warning if you
haven’t seen the latest addition to the MCU. They start off by
talking about just who is Captain Marvel, aka Ms. Marvel, aka
Carol Danvers and how they were first introduced to the
character. Before getting into the movie, they talk a little
about the controversial comments made by Brie Larson before the
movie even came out and how that affected the perception of the
film going into it. They then go through the talking points of
the film, and talk about the cast, the characters, the plot
points, how it all connects to the bigger MCU picture, and also
get into a bit of a talking point about how the film handled the
Skrulls. How was Brie Larson as Captain Marvel? Did it bring the
film down for them? What did they think of this version of Nick
Fury? Was it de-aging or just good makeup? How did the 90s
setting impact the movie, and was it too much? What did the story
remind Travis of? How will she be integrated into the upcoming
Avengers Endgame movie? Is she ready to be the “face” of the MCU
going forward? Does she need more solo sequels? How could Marvel
use Captain Marvel to introduce the X-Men into the MCU? They end
the review by doing some dream-casting for Captain Marvel. They
wrap up by talking some recent news on James Gunn coming back for
Guardians 3, as well as the news that the big Fox/Disney deal is
officially done and with that which characters they are most
excited to see introduced to the MCU first. Xavier has a great
idea for Hugh Jackman, and it’s not what you think.  This
