The buzz coming back from early reviews is pretty good. Looking forward to seeing this movie.

Prolly gonna skip this one. Brie Larson has gone public with her SJW rantings, doesn't want it reviewed by white males, etc. She can kiss my ass. I won't be paying for this one, don't even care about the story. I'll accept that she's a character that shows up in Endgame, and that's about it.
Early reviews of other titanic films like the Last Jedi were all positive too, and it blew chunks. This is just Disney pre-release spin. If it truly is a good movie, then so be it. But things tend to have a very positive review/Rotten Tomato score until people actually see it.

This happened with Annabelle: Creation. Had a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score for two weeks before release, as reviewed by critics. And then the movie was released.

Meh.
She looks sexy as all hell, but whatever. Manhater.

LOL. Good points. Some movies don't live up to the hype. This one probably won't either. I'm still looking forward to it.
Its a prequel/origin story, and I like those.
Its set in the 90s, and I like nostalgia.
The 'women empowerment' spin can be a turnoff, but I think Brie is doing it right without overdoing it. If I had a daughter I think she'd love this movie.
Black Panther was ok, but it wasn't a standout in the MCU. I liked Spider-Man Homecoming much more. And for some reason, Dr. Strange really hit the spot. Even though it is an origin story that pretty much mirrors Tony Stark's, I thought what they did AFTER they got the origin stuff out of the way was creative and original, especially how he defeated the big baddie.
Black Panther was just meh. And in the end, he fights someone with the same abilities. Whoopty doo.

I felt the same way about Dr. Strange. I was not interested in it at all. Then one day, 3 yrs after it came out, I was bored, so I watched it, and I really liked it.
Same. I didn't see it until way later, in a catch-up weekend before I saw Infinity War. Dr. Strange was great! I like that it even started off kind of like General Hospital, with the soap opera drama between him and Rachel McSexy.
Black Panther was pretty good, but wasn't over the top great. My first viewing of Dr. Strange I was pretty meh about. I watched it again later on Netflix and liked it more on the second viewing. Still doesn't rank super high on the origin stories for me.
Liked Spider-Man Homecoming didn't think it was nearly as good as my youngest son did.
Iron Man IMO is still the best origin story. My next favorite is Captain America. I didn't see it for a couple of years after came out. I really had no interest in seeing it. Then I finally watched it on Netflix and really liked it.
I am sure we will be seeing Captain Marvel as soon as it comes out.

Major Major Major Bah humbug to you sir. Geesh...must be a hawkeye or buff fan in disguise! Good grief!
Iron Man is the only other 'Superhero' franchise I've enjoyed. Well wait, Wonder Woman was worth watching, but that's different. I could have watched her mow my lawn for a weekend.
