"Captain Marvel" Pre-Release News & Discussion (Spoilers)

[Yojimbo]

Brie Larson posts a new still while reminding America to vote.

EDIT: Jude Law appeared on Colbert Monday night to talk about Fantastic Beasts, but he was quick to not reveal anything about who he plays and instead told an anecdote about how tight Marvel with secrets - making sure he wore the cloak so no one could photograph him and made his children sign NDAs. lol.

I love Brie Larson.

Apparently the movie takes place in 1995, according to the Japanese Disney website.

One year after I was born. Cool .

Feige reveals the movie is inspired by Kelly Sue DeConnick's run.

The story seems to be pretty much it's own thing when it comes to Carol, although personality-wise and the suit is likely very directly inspired by DeConnick's stuff .

It must be hair pulling for the Prelude comic writers to do these stories. It feels like they're really leashed and only get to peck at a few seeds rather than Marvel Studios giving the okay to tell big stories and reveals. But in the real world it probably comes down to how their production schedule works differently than Marvel Comics blah blah.

I don't understand who even reads them, they're basically 25% footnotes while the rest is just recapping what we've already seen.

I imagine it has to be someone since they've managed to continue making them for the past decade. They're probably easy sells to curious movie fans trying to figure what the next movie will be about or get an idea of who the new character is.

I bet basically young kids and collectors.

And it's probably the first to not have its star character involved at all. Idk, the only really great ones were the Fury's Big Week and Black Widow ones for the first Avengers movie.

AKA "What Nick Fury and Maria Hill were doing post-Age of Ultron" .

Although this seems more like an Infinity War prelude then a Captain Marvel prelude .

Also kind of weird that Hill looks more like her comic self then Cobie Smulders .

 

[Magmaster12]

Yeah I noticed that thing about Maria Hill too.

Or maybe now they're finally admitting the character was copying that spy character from Dial M for Monkey.

 

[Rick Jones]

Outside of the short hair and the jumpsuit, I don't think I'd consider Hill and Agent Honeydew type. Maybe Contessa from the old Nick Fury comics was more like her.

Speaking of - you can chop up the three new scenes in this prelude. The first is a 'new scene' that takes placing during Civil War. While Tony and T'Challa are racing off to Sibera, Fury and Hill watch footage of the airplane fight and go off the grid again. The second is a continuation from a scene in the Infinity War Prelude #1. Steve, Natasha, and Wilson's Syria mission goes sideways, which this comic confirmed to be months after the end of Civil War, and they have to run with the Chitauri dirty bomb to the Quinjet, where Fury is waiting and while in the air, Fury asks Steve to mend fences. And in the third, Hill visits Tony at the Avengers Facility while he tests his new armor about the same thing. Since the next scene is the IW end tag saying Months Later, this visit was a few months before IW.

November 23rd:
Hollywood Reporter has an interview with Ben Mendelsohn. Note there's some NSFW language in there but he also talks a little about the Captain Marvel movie.

I'll be honest, the helmet looks better there then it does in the comics .
