@WakandanQueen - But not Eternals. Let Chloe Zhao go wild with that

@PhoenixClunge - Was it? Or do Avengers movies just basically give us a cliffs notes best of compilation of characters? Everything you love about a character squeezed into five minutes of screen time? With none of the heavy lifting.

@TyrantBossMedia - I agree he did seem more badass in civil war! Spiderman too yet in homecoming he became a klutz and made nearly every situation worse lol

@PhoenixClunge - Boy am I tired of hearing this "X character was better in Y Russo brothers movie!" crap, especially when there's no damn basis and the Russos mostly use the character in question as a plot device with barely any character or a very paper thin one.

Everything great about Thor in Infinity War that people praise (mostly his powers) was either done first or set up in Ragnarok. I'd argue Infinity War even regressed his development slightly.

And everything great about Carol in Endgame was done first in Captain Marvel. She's literally the same damn character, but in a better movie. Brie's performance is the exact same. In fact, it's even better informed and more ranged in Captain Marvel, because Carol has more to actually do rather than pop in at just the right time.

This thing is just the popular thing to say now (and I get it, the Russos ARE great directors, especially actor and character directors) but it's hardly even true when you think about it.

The only character I'd agree with is Gamora, because that's the first time we actually saw the weight of being the favourite daughter of Thanos dawn on her and it's played damn well by Zoe Saldana.

But yes, please go ahead and tell me how much better the Hulk and Vision were under the Russos.

@DnA - if you're tired of hearing it then skip past my post... simples 🤷🏿‍♂️ vision war far better in age of Ultron and I preferred incredible hulk Hulk to current MCU Hulk. We all have different opinions and I preferred Captain Marvel in Endgame, Brie's acting felt less flat.

@Mr2099 - that's very true

@dracula - that's exactly how I feel and the whole superman vibe she gave off in Endgame just made her more likable for me. I didn't hate her in Captain Marvel but Brie felt a bit bland at times.

@Hawknaba -

@MalseMarcel - I loved her 2023 look, badass!
