Captain Marvel

immediate reaction post-watch:

- rawr watch how amazingly powerful women are when they're not hobbled by the patriarchy! I am mighty! I am powerful! I am a generically well-intentioned white woman! (I'm sure the comics get into her motivations and personality a lot more, but in this one... eh)
- Maria and Monica Rambeau are amazing and need their own movie
- Okay, punching Jude Law was pretty satisfying. I wished there were more of these "don't accept their premise" moments, especially in the larger Kree vs Skrull context.
- It was definitely nice to actually have a gender balance in the cast. :3

It is kind of unfortunate how much we celebrate relatively small things because they have to be celebrated. Still, I'm looking forward to this one.

Maria and Monica has better get a LOT of good fanfic at the very least. Man, Maria can FLY.
