Although I'm too burned out on the franchise to be excited about new releases, Captain Marvel 2018 was one of the best movies they made in general without qualification. Wanda + Vision was phenomenal until the last episode and Ms. Marvel was great until the 3rd episode. This movie has plenty of potential that at this point I'm not sure they care about using anymore.

Tbh I'm just going to watch it on Disney Plus at some point. I don't have an interest in it because I didn't have an interest in Ms Marvel so the team-up just isn't something I'll go to a theater to see when I can stream it later.

I can recommend the first 2 episodes of Ms. Marvel. I suspect the remaining episodes suffered a series of Disney-induced comprimises and are kind of a mess. The first 2 episodes are great and enough to endear someone to Kamala who is a well-acted and fun character.

I enjoyed it as a whole and think it is worth watching. It is not particularly deep or anything but it is fun because the actor who play Kamala makes it fun. It would have been very flat without her obvious enthusiasm.

Definitely. If the show had problems, Iman Vellani was not one of them. She rules.

I watched the first episode and didn't care for it. It wasn't bad or anything, it just felt like this was one for the tweens even more than most Disney offerings, which isn't a problem mind you, I'm just not the target audience.
