I have felt disconnected from the Marvel cinematic universe. I saw Ant-Man earlier this year and it was fun. I didn’t see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. #3 because I figured it would be sad and didn’t want to cry in the theater. I haven’t watched Secret Invasion yet, but the reviews are not the greatest. I also was spoiled about a certain character’s death in one of the first few episodes and I’m a little salty about it. With all that said, the Marvel movie I’m looking forward to is The Marvels. The Marvels isn’t a Captain Marvel sequel, but more of a team-up between the various versions of Captain Marvel. I know some aren’t really Brie Larson fans, but I’m personally looking forward to this movie.
I watched Ms. Marvel last year and it was so good! I am excited to see Iman Vellani back as Ms. Marvel. Ms. Marvel is one of my favorite characters in comics. She’s nerdy, passionate, and genuinely a good person. She is the quintessential superhero. There’s a moment at the end of the trailer where Ms. Marvel looks at Goose as Goose breaks out the tentacles and eats a few of the enemies. She screams in absolute terror. That’s the most real reaction you can have to seeing a cat eat people.
This leads to another thing that I’m looking forward to. Seeing Goose! Who doesn’t want to see a loveable, alien tentacle kitty? There’s also a clip from the trailer of more kitties floating around and I think Goose could use a friend.
What’s interesting about The Marvels is that this movie does the most with acknowledging the TV series on Disney+. There’s obviously Ms. Marvel, but also Monica Rambeau (played by Teyonah Parris) who was highlighted in WandaVision. With Carol’s friendship with Monica’s mom, Maria, I could see some touching conversations between the two of them. While Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness springboards off of WandaVision, The Marvels could provide an essential link between the Disney+ shows.
I was reading the comments of The Marvels trailer and they were surprisingly not as toxic as I thought they would be. I think people should let everyone enjoy what they want to enjoy. I get that this movie might not be what other fans are looking for, but don’t yuck on someone’s yum.
I’m excited to see The Marvels and even if the reviews aren’t great, I’m sure that I will have fun watching it.
I read a great article about the cat actors used on set for Goose. This time they have two, and when they were filming the kitten scene *everyone* stopped by for some kitty time. Then they had a moment where they counted them, found nine and were like “uh… where’s the tenth?!” which I found hilarious. That just fits with the whole idea of a little of flerkens! π
Also in the interview Brie Larson said that she’s highly allergic to cats and in the scenes with Goose they have to use a stunt double and/or CGI!

If I was filming with multiple cats, I would also be there.
Poor Brie, that would be tough.
