Captain Marvel extended scene sets off the usual bunch of assholes
- Thread starter DrForester
- Start date
There's often a disclaimer people share before solidarity or congratulations on the internet. I don't like this thing, but X is bad or Y is great.
Many just say how lame they think Larson is and don't even comment on the topic at hand
Nah, I think laughing at these people does more good than bad, because it reinforces acceptable social norms.
Leaving internet nerds discover these twats on their own is the best way to get roped into their scams.
If we're talking about who I think we're talking about she's been a known pandering to the sexists for quite a while
She just steals his motorcycle when he goes into the bar but doesn't steal his clothes or threaten to blow his hand off.
Really? I haven't seen any of her videos for a while, but I really loved her X-Men Retrospective videos...
Time to unsub.
I'd have liked Lagetha from Vikings, or Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica. All I can hope now is that she grows into the role because right now I put captain marvel right next to Falcon, in characters I dont care about in the MCU (or who need more development).
Yeah, seriously. It happens in every thread about her without fail. It's exhausting.
If we're talking about Comic Book Girl 19, she IIRC significantly downplayed all the sexism from Ghostbusters.
The point here is the scene in the OP is such a blatant terminator 2 homage, you could practically swap the dialogue in from T2 on top of the Marvel scene and it would work. And a huge proportion of the people complaining about the Marvel scene would have liked and supported that T2 scene, just because it's Arnold and not Brie.

She's a woman. It doesn't become her. She should ask politely and smile. Her uterus isn't built for action scenes.
I mean, they only care because they don't want to fuck Tom Cruise.
It at least, they say they don't.
Can't have your female stars be undesirable, that ain't how Hollywood works. You can be as strong willed as you want, as long as I still want to take you to bed afterwards.
These Jokers can stay mad.
I'm seriously at a loss at how that scene could bother anyone. There must be some massive insecurity issues happening across the internet...
I don't get this at all. Before watching I figured there would at least be a tiny bit of something I could see how some kinda wacko could get upset about. But nope... just a nod to Terminator that was actually well done. I'm at a loss here.
Take a breath and calm down first of all. Christ. Then, look at some of the posts above your over-aggressive response. Have a good one.
Lmao look at those post in context and no one on this site upsets me and you reply had nothing to do with our original statements deflect else where
Pretty sure Tom Cruise was a sex symbol throughout his entire career.
Also I think marvel was the top searched super hero on porn hub.
I mean, if you have the numbers on how many guys want to fuck Tom Cruise, I'll look at them.
But make no mistake, the reason these piss babies are mad is because they have to deal with a protagonist who's sole purpose isn't making their dicks bounce in their pants FIRST, be a super hero second, like it always has been.
So...yes, as far as the MCU goes, it's silly and asinine and clearly not true.
In the comics...It's pretty fair to say that, at least as far as comic creators go, Captain Marvel is probably the most reviled character on the roster, if only indicated by the history of completely shit stories that they put her at the helm of and the complete logic lapses they use to have her take as many L's as possible.
But yeah, when people say they don't like MCU Carol, they're talking out of their ass, she is extremely popular and will only continue to have her popularity grow.
Because if they keep saying it on the internet, it stays true to them and the snowflake lemmings that follow them.
The guys bothered by this are the type of men who have or would say that a woman needs to smile more and consider that to be flirting.
Almost every other character in the MCU is an AHole half the time, lol.
IKR. The GotG are an entire group of criminals who steal and murder and people love them.
Dumbo should have just left her alone though, if it was me I would have done worse to that guy.
Like we all know what wold have happened had he tried to mess around with Hancock lol
I mean...
Every single Male super hero has insane work out routines to get dream bodies and they're all super attractive actors that get shirtless scenes in their introduction... hell even teenage Spiderman.
But like I said the haters still think she is attractive. They just hate her because of Brie Larson so they twist everything the character does with their stupid disdain for Brie.
And it all stems from the fact they couldnt understand what Brie said and got offended for no reason and refused to realize it out of blatant mysoginy.
I really think it's the big thing because you see none of them hating on Evangeline Lilly and the Wasp, who share similar design and has some scenes that prove she is superior to her Male counterpart.
Ok so just to be sure you have a problem with the following right?
Everytime without fail.
It's like Bob Chipman said: "If you wanna protest Obama's drone policies, don't do it on the same day and so close to the guys wearing white hoods."
Remember when Gillette made that ad campaign "Men can be better." and men all over the world shouted in unison "NO!"
I liked it. Wish they kept it since it does add to the cahracter of Cpt. Marvel. Only thing I didn't like about the scene was how he did not react to her odd name... Than again, it's not worst than "The Don"... dafuq?
I get it and I regret posting but if there is a post about a drone video and people saying "we love drones!", how is it not OK for someone to say "I'm not a big fan of this perticular drone".
I would not do it on twitter or places where I have no idea who is around me (for fear of being put into the same corner as those asshats), but I feel this board is pretty great and non-toxcit.
So I did not even think that I would be writing it "close to guys wearing white hoods".
But lesson learned, this is a celebration thread and you don't need folks repeating/saying Dark Souls 2 sucks when you want to talk about a Dark Souls 2 mod or whatever.
OP
OP
I love that they
I love that they gave a nod to that in Winter Soldier.
That clip was a fun homage to T2. I wish they had kept it in. It only added a few more seconds to the film, so I don't think it would have impacted the runtime to a substantial degree, and it's a lighthearted jab at toxic masculinity.
Not surprised one bit at the snowflakes getting pissy about it. Keep calling them out. Every time. The problem doesn't go away by ignoring it.

I think people are angry she drove on the wrong side of the road guys. Traffic laws are important for safety.
Cry some more, baby snowflakes
These pictures are always too funny
I fully expect most of these dudes to be the type that would unironically idolize Rorschach. I'd be more surprised if they didn't.
I don't understand why they'd take that version out. It's great, and not much longer than the shortened scene that made the final cut.
lmao

There's a point about similar scenes with men not drawing the "anger", but that's not a civilian car.
