So the MCU nerfs Thor into uselessness but Carol gets to be cosmic-tier?

Why the fuck did the MCU keep Hulk and Thor down power-level wise? It made sense back then, as it seemed like they didn't want to make the other Avengers seem useless, so I bit my tongue. But this...this is pure bullshit. I wouldn't even be mad if they had Carol be about even with Thor/Hulk but this hamfisted girl power shit is nonsense.

Forgot text for those who don't want to contribute to click-bait

>"With Captain Marvel, who has powers that approach a level that we haven’t seen before in our films, you need to counter- balance that by finding somebody who is also very human and very relatable and can get into a groove with the audience, where they’re willing to see her fly through the sun and punch a moon away from a spacecraft. At the same time, we need her to land and have relatable flaws."

She isn't even that strong in the comics. Even Binary Carol doesn't pull that kind of shit.

She literally flew into the Sun and stopped it from exploding, anon.

I still can't believe they think she deserves her own fucking film.
They bumped Inhumans out of the schedule for this shit.

Everybody knows Carol is one of the worst characters in all comics. Marvel keeps trying to force her down our throats.
>>
>>87872691
No, you're thinking of the Inhumans. Carol's always been good.
>>
They think making her basically Superman will make her popular among nerds, because how powerful a character is makes them popular, of course. And we cant have a male be more or even equally powerful, not in this day and age. Its current year for fucks sake.

...that said I'm not concerned. This is slow drip pre-release/filming hype. I doubt we'll see anything close to that from her. Likely in battles she appear your typical flying brick with tits and hopefully a nice ass.
>>
>>87872691

Carol is that trainwreck that you just can't look away from. I love to hate her, if that makes sense.

That said, they aren't going to make their 'superman' character, who they are building up to lead the future Avengers, and even bears the Marvel name as part of her identity, a broken jaded, cynical, alcoholic wreck of a human being who breaks everything good she touches and smiles as she suffocates bad guys in space.

The Captain Marvel/Carol we get in the MCU will be a much different character, or have her negative qualities massively toned down. I mean, even Captain America is a bit of a prick in the comics, and he's the sweetest guy you could ever meet in the MCU.

Who gives a shit? Plenty of heroes are more powerful than Spider-man but he is the most popular superhero of the modern age. If the movie is good, it doesn't matter how ridiculous they make her. If it's bad, then hyping her up was just an exercise in futility and the rest of the MCU will carry on business as usual.

>>87872005
That had more to do with energy powers she's not strong enough to punch moons away. They're giving her superman level bullshit because they need her to be their forerunner. FUCK SYNERGY. This is literally them making her stronger because the comic books need to push her.

>This is literally them making her stronger because the comic books need to push her.
You have that ass backwards, my dude. The MCU could not give one single fuck about the comics at this point. The comics bend over backwards to conform to the movies, not vice versa.

No, the reason for this power creep is strictly to push Marvel Studio's CURRENT YEAR agenda.

So will the comic one go Super Binary II and grow her hair back and stand on edge while having skin turn red?

>The comics bend over backwards to conform to the movies, not vice versa.
At this point, the Marvel comics division would probably be better off just rebooting entirely and publishing stories in the MCU universe, under the observation/authorisation of whoever's the showrunner for the MCU.

Because they've probably sunken too much money into her already. They're trying to shoehorn her so she's actually worth the investment.

If everything with her bombs she'll eventually be replaced. Probably by blue marvel.

>The Captain Marvel/Carol we get in the MCU will be a much different character, or have her negative qualities massively toned down. I mean, even Captain America is a bit of a prick in the comics, and he's the sweetest guy you could ever meet in the MCU.

Having a bunch of different writers interpret a character throughout many decades will do that especially since different writers will do different things with said characters.

In Cap's case he has gone through a lot of writers, like Brubaker makes him into a dick and weary guy who will not shy away frim playing dirty and is willing to kill someone like Red Skull and Zemo without a second's thought while Gruenwald made him into this straight laced by the book holier than thou guy who would never take a life ever and gets angry when others do.

Waid writes him like your standard Cap but he also makes him into a snarky cranky old man who is tired of everyone's shit, he's not necessarily mean to people but he gets irritated pretty easily.

My favorite versions of Cap is when he was written by Roger Stern and DeMatteis versions, because both of them wrote him as this emphatic guy who will always resort to talking before fighting. Like he defeats a Native American champion of an angry Earth Spirit spirit by hugging him and later on said character helps Steve when Steve is close to death. There's also a story with Cap trying to speak at a school and a kid comes in with a gun, Cap stops him but while everyone is angry at the kid and tries to haul him to jail all Cap cares about is finding out what made the kid act out that way. Also Steve's relationship with Arnie was good.

But yeah different writers will have different versions of a character, heck Warren Ellis even had Cap condone torture in Secret Avengers and then later went and admit he didn't know how to write him.

Also compare Cap when he was written by Joss Whedon vs Cap when he was written by Markus and McFeely and you'll find some differences.

I genuinely don't understand people that give a shit about power levels. So what if she'll be stronger than Thor in the movies? That doesn't make her a better character.

Thor is stronger than Cap in the MCU and Cap is still generally considered the better character. Seems like such an autistic thing to care about.

That's one movie I won't even pirate.
But oh well, I dropped MCU ever since I heard that Pascal was onboard the Spiderman movie and when Luke Cage turned out a freaking disappointment.
So what am I doing here? I'm here to see it all fail, which if it happens, it would be even more entertaining than the movies themselves.
I was never above gloating, I guess.

The funny thing is, most probably Brie Larson saw and read the trainwreck version and loved it, thinking there was great potential in a messy superhero like Carol, and then she gets to play nothing even close to what she read. She hates it, but the masses love it because its Marvel at its plebbiest.

MCU is simply becoming less grounded so the powers get more wild.


They could easily just slide up Thor's power and nobody would really care. Or if Odin's gone after Thor 3 they could make him the All-Father and therefore really fucking powerful.
