If not, are you watching it anytime soon?
If yes, what are your thoughts?
I just watched it today and I thought it was just an average MCU movie. Not terrible, but not great.
Also, spoilers just in case

I haven’t heard anything great about this one either but it’s disappointing that they haven’t been back to form
Also, does anyone else find it so funny that they're having such a hard time making this Blade movie and Mahershala Ali almost walked out lol
Imagine if we got that Loki in the game
If you like watching fast paced action movies then you can watch it.
They go from one fight sequence to another fight sequence with a bit of exposition in between.
Just wait for it to come on D+
Captain Marvel isn't a good character.
Actors doesn't help either, nor does the writing
Marvel died in Endgame.
Very few titles hold my attention anymore. Only really excited for Blade and the next Deadpool.
I watch it because of Goose lol
I disliked the way Carol was shoehorned into the Endgame saga. While I adored Iman Vellani, the Ms. Marvel series was poorly written, choppily produced and introduced concepts that should never have been in a Marvel TV show (e.g., dimensional incursion and end of the world stakes, but no other hero takes notice?). Monica was solid in WandaVision.
But…the MCU is missing its leads. Who’s the alpha, male or female, among the remaining Marvel heroes? Is it Sam? Carol? Clint? It’s surely not Thor, who (while initially funny) has been turned into a slapstick silly character. Stephen is great, but he’s not Sorcerer Supreme any longer and apparently doesn’t bother to notice world-ending threats. Wong is SS, but his repertoire appears to be fire ring transport spells and training underachieving magicians to do magic tricks at Kamar-Taj. That leaves Scott Lang…enough said.
As for movies, I consider the Spidey and GotG films somewhat *outside* the core MCU, which leaves me with very few good projects *inside* the core MCU since Endgame. While I enjoy Loki, I blame Michael Waldron for making an abject mess of the multiverse in Doc 2 and somewhat in Loki 2. Doc 2 was an unmitigated mess that discarded much of what Loki 1 introduced about the multiverse.
Sadly, NWG and GotG3 feel like the farewell tour you get when your favorite player is a little too old for the game and gets his number called one last time before retirement. Neither was great, but both were so full of nostalgia and wrap-up that it felt like saying goodbye rather than being caught up in something new.
Oh well…early morning rant over. The question was will I watch Marvels and I will, but not for one cent more than I’ve already spent.

The three leads have great chemistry and the set pieces honestly aren’t bad but god is the villain so. flipping. boring. It’s Malekith levels of bad. I can’t believe i’m saying this but the movie could’ve used some extra time to fully flesh her out more. I also didn’t feel like the movie always had the right tone (especially towards the end) and the tonal whiplash as well from scene to scene was not working in this movies favor.
The post credits scene was hype af though
The future teases were better than the actual movie imo
