Story isn't in the same stratosphere. 15 hours ago, Deadpulse said: Kevin Fiege: Looks like a Secret Invasion storyline could still be in the cards despite the twist. I'm not hopeful. That could easily just mean she'll deal with their problems more in the galaxy. They didn't tease it whatsoever in Captain Marvel. I think that was a missed opportunity.

Because they need to knock that power down a notch right away. But if she's strong enough to beat a full IG Thanos, then Ron-Yogg should've been a cakewalk for Carol. Like, she should've kicked his arse without breaking a sweat. That was NOT the case. It'll be interesting to see how they explain her power increasing a hundred fold in Endgame.

Well this was never going to be a secret invasion storyline. You cant do that pre every hero save Frozen CA. It is hard to call this a missed opportunity when the opportunity hasnt even happened. side note, I gotchu on the double post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Prince Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Also not every skull has to be good. So still potential for an invasion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've already touched on this a bit. Schmidt or w/e his name is has already stated that the tesseract was hypothetically a limitless source of power if she absorbed that much in the same way Banner did Gamma Ray's. Then that would pretty much explain her massive power. But them controlling her with the same device they used on Thor in Ragnorak is still pretty dumb.

As strong as she was at the end, Thanos would still wipe the floor with her with the IG. They’re going to have to get creative in beating him.

ET80 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Saw it. Liked it a lot. Not Winter Soldier/Civil War good, but those are high watermarks to hit. Not everything is going to be a home run, sometimes you're stoked when you pop a double into the alley, which I think this was. Now, onto Endgame.

Thor was way underpowered and not using his God of Thunder power. Not to mention when she decided to take it off she did so like it was nothing. If they recognized her as being that much of a threat. You would think there would be more of a plan there besides just of martial arts training and a electric buzzer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the entire premise of Thor: Ragnarok was that he wasn't underpowered at any moment in the movie. (Odin basically said as much when he asked "...are you the god of hammers?") Even when he went full thunder on Hulk, the Grandmaster put the kibosh on that with a button press. I think the overall plan included the Accusors playing a bigger role in defeating her, but I think they all underestimated how strong she was. They knew she was strong - they just never knew HOW strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They knew she was strong - they just never knew HOW strong. And all it takes is to find the remote to get it off. You're right I don't think they knew how strong she was, I'm just saying if she was considered that important you would think they would plan everything out a little more.

I think they overestimated themselves as usual since the Kree have always been the most arrogant species in the Marvel universe. Carol was brainwashed to forego her own desires and completely submit to the Kree empire for 6 years or however long it was. I’m guessing that’s why she went so long without trying to counter their measures to restrict her power. Plus, Yonn-Rogg was always there to help keep her in check.
