      I don't dislike the MCU yet since it reliably puts out movies above 3 stars. Though, I do think the continuity is starting to become very restricting.

      Also, admittedly, Captain Marvel is in the bottom of my rankings, but it's the kind of underwhelming movie where I find the defenses of it more interesting than the criticisms.

      It's apparently a very polarizing movie! I just wish people wouldn't categorize the reason it's polarizing as "shallow feminism" vs "people who are smart enough to see past shallow tokenism"!

      Lindsay Ellis disliked it a lot, but I don't think it's because she's opposed to "identity politics" or thinks representation issues in movies are bullshit!

      And I've said -- a bunch of times -- that trying to introspect, I don't think I like Carol because she's a woman Trying to imagine a different version of this movie in my head, I think I'd even admit that if she were a guy I might have a stronger initial positive reaction

      Because, you know, I'm a guy and I tend to find guys in movies more immediately identifiable "Identity issues" *would* matter, but the important thing to me would be some signal that CM isn't a normative hero, that they're someone who's "not supposed to be there"

      (Am I just someone who kneejerk hates on white guys in movies? Fine, maybe I am, but the white guys can handle it) But my point is the stuff that people legitimately have a problem with -- Carol's lack of struggle, the "narcissism" of the movie's POV -- is exactly what I like

      Like, it's a Mary Sue movie It's *defiantly* a Mary Sue movie, the reason it sticks out so much is it shamelessly, brazenly, nakedly rubs the Sueness in your face It interrupts your critique and shoots you in the face with a blast of Mary Sue energy and arrogantly walks off

      And it is completely legitimate I guess for all the reasons people made up and mocked the "Mary Sue" archetype in the first place to be turned off by that But in the mood I was when I watched it I was absolutely ready to swallow that hook line and sinker Fuck yeah Mary Sues

      Of course women who are sick of being "mansplained" to etc. have an overwhelming cultural reason to care about this more than men generally do But that doesn't mean it's something *only* women can find themselves in

      It's for anyone who is surrounded by paternalistic authority figures trying to discipline you, educate you and get you to grow up and be responsible and slowly realizing they're fucking full of shit and wanting to just pop them in the nose and walk away It's extremely '90s
