The only financial incentive I have in this movie is, if it does as well as I expect, it will help make more superhero movies. The Marvel movies have shown I imagined for decades while reading comics. I have a bunch. My collection is at worth five figures. I lost count at 20,000.
I’m a comic book geek. I have been seen the late ‘50’s. I was with Marvel since day 1. I gave up comic books more than 20 yrs ago mostly because they let political correctness overwhelm their common sense.
Not to say there weren’t or can’t be great female heroes—there have been. But most of them have been duds.
I’m not interested in social justice warriors any more than you. And, in my opinion, it would be a huge mistake to make to allow that to take over their movies.
There is risk associated with the Captain Marvel movie-and it is exactly what you said-they let social justice take over. Actually I expect it will happen. I’m paying attention, and those movies I will ignore.
Meantime, I’m very glad to know that Marvel movies will soon have the rights to the Fantastic Four and X-Men franchises. There are can’t-miss stories to be told. l look forward to it.
I once would have. But they have already turned 40ish Reed Richards, seasoned and serious, into a snarky 18 yo, and turned Sue Storm into an adopted sibling and daughter.
Phase 4 is likely going to be egregious leftist propaganda, which may trigger a Solo-like reaction from fans.
Ah, now your position makes sense. This increases the value and prestige of your collection.

I used to be. I used to have a massive comic book collection, but over the years I have lost it. I wasn't so much of a Marvel fan, but my brother was, and I acquired all the comics he bought. I was mostly a Superman fan, and I had many comics in the different iterations of the Superman series, such as "Action", "Justice League", "Superboy", etc.
But yes, comics went way over into crazy territory when they started chasing liberal ideas of "diversity."

I saw a trailer for it that is exactly nothing more than a Social Justice Warrior hate fest for White Christian Males, and of course we have the nasty commentary from Brie Larson already out there on video, so yes, it's pretty much a given that this is a Super Woymn power anti-male hate fest.

I liked the previous reboot to the Fantastic Four with Ioan Gruffudd playing Reed Richards, and I liked the Silver Surfer sequel. I didn't think much of the effort to force diversity into it with that last movie, but I look forward to Marvel movies rebooting it again if they just leave the politics and "diversity" out of it.
Let us hope they focus on good story telling rather than attempting to "teach" us what they think are better morals.
