      They could have in fact involved the USAF in a way that actually said something positive about the USAF's "mission" and they never ever did Carol is purely a test pilot for Dr. Lawson's weird alien shit She never flies a rescue plane to save heroic soldiers from Baghdad etc.

      No, she's just testing planes that may or may not be for that purpose, because again, the movie actively not mentioning what the US army was actually doing in that time period would be morally inconveinent for it's anti authority message.

      They're not for that purpose, the whole big reveal in the movie is Lawson is an infiltrator and a spy and doesn't intend to share anything she invents with the actual Air Force The biggest deviation from typical "code" in this film is that no one reacts negatively to this at all

      The movie gets as close as it can (while being edited by Air Force censors) to saying that Carol wishes she could've worked directly for Dr. Lawson without being in the Air Force at all

      That's a gracious interpretation, not wrong but a very very gracious reading of it.

      I mean it's a line in the movie, it's how Maria describes Dr. Lawson "We always liked Dr. Lawson, she was the only one who would let us fly anything we wanted"

      Again, a very gracious interpretation of a single line as 'coming as close to wishing they could work for her as opposed to the airforce'.

      ...Okay, I guess There's nothing positive said about the Air Force at any other point Like, it's text, working with Dr. Lawson was the only job in the Air Force that Maria and Carol enjoyed

      "Nothing positive" does not equate to 'Only negatives' when as you've mentioned before the imagery evokes Top Gun specifically so folks aren't thinking about what the USAF was ACTYUALLY doing during the time. And it's irrelevant when it's free advertising for em.

      Okay You're telling me you think it's unacceptable for a movie to try to be "neutral" and not be openly critical of US military action when it involves the US military And since the US military demands that movies be "neutral" at worst, this makes all these movies unethical

      That's fine I accept that that's a logical stance to take, maybe even one I should take but have not What I am resisting is the perception that this particular movie particularly needs to be criticized when people say they like it

          The narrative that I'm perceiving in this thread is that MCU movies and other action movies are generally understood as problematic by critics but Captain Marvel gets singled out and protected because of shallow liberal feminism This seems like the exact opposite of the case

          Like, the criticism is happening Right now Captain Marvel is the MCU movie you can *least* talk about without getting criticism over it It is one of the most disproportionately heavily criticized popular media on the Internet in 2019-20
