Captain Marvel Captain Marvel General Discussion and Speculation - Part 6

[KRYPTON INC.]

Watch them just slap a wig on him and call it a day.

 

[Aximili86]

Damn, that patch thing is sweet.

And yeah, seriously doubt Coulson's a major player in this, I'd be surprised if he even meets Carol, or at least doesn't find out in a direct sense about her powers. All the major knowledge about all this Kree craziness should stay to Nick and Nick alone.

 

[Silvermoth]

I didn’t know the writers of this also wrote Glow. Marvel has chosen well. That show is pretty much one big audition tape for a marvel flick

 

[Aximili86]

Yeah, I haven't seen it, but it seems to be from the promos.

I was basically thinking that watching Cobra Kai too, those guys would nail some of the more light-hearted Marvel fare, something of a similar tone to Ant-Man. Even a Spidey sequel down the road if Watts doesn't want to do another.

 

[DalekbusterFitz]

Because he's going to have a minor role......5 minutes at the most, maybe 10 but that may be stretching it.

Coulson shouldn't be minor though. We are talking a major returning character. He should be Carol Danvers' co-lead.

 

[Dr. Evil]

The co-lead in this film is played by Jude Law.

He won't be. Coulson was never a major character in the films. He was the definition of a minor character in the first two Iron Man films and played a little bit more of an important role in Thor and The Avengers but that's it. He won't have a big role in this and nor should he. This isn't Agents of SHIELD.

 

[flickchick85]

Phil Coulson will never be a lead or co-lead in a film. He doesn't warrant it.

 

[legendkillin]

Coulson only needs 5 minute he has no experience in the movie. He is nothing more than an easter egg.

 

[legendkillin]

If it's another magic nanotech helmet that just materialises, I'm out.

Yeah in the comics she can also just kind of, materialize, her costume around herself whenever she wants.

I think I would prefer the fire binary look over the mohawk stuff. They don't need to give her a helmet especially if it is the same effects as Iron Man, Star-Lord, Iron Spider, and Black Panther. The costume is cool but no need for head gear.

Geneva Robertson-Dworet is credited with the screenplay and I didn't see GLOW in her list of previous work. Gotta link?

There are like 7 credited writers on this. Two of them, Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, are the creators and showrunners of GLOW.

I'm normally wary of such a large writing team on a movie, but with Marvel it has worked out in the past, and this group of writers is quite solid. Certainly more so than the ones credited for Spider-Man: Homecoming, and that one turned out just fine regardless. But on this, we've got writers from Guardians of the Galaxy, Inside Out, Tomb Raider and GLOW, plus the directors themselves are also credited as writers, and they have multiple acclaimed films under their belt. It's in good hands, imo.

Thanks for clearing that up flick.

Anytime.

You are completely delusional about your demands regarding AOS characters yet again. Get a grip or stop posting because your statements are ridiculous.

 

[Aximili86]

Why would he be a major deal? Let alone a co-lead.

Even if we're taking AoS as canon, he's at most a high-level field agent at this time (probably less than "high level" too, more middle).

He's likely not going to be in-the-know on the huge stuff. Might be aware of a little broad & general suspicions on the "Fury suspects there's alien stuff out there", maybe even some less-big-deal specifics, but he's not the guy we know from Iron Man & Thor yet. He's not going to be running his own operations & teams into tracking down & securing stuff like Mjolnir.

Combine that with the fact they'll probably be using the de-ageing CG tech on him, and most of that budget's probably going into doing it for Nick/Sam, and I'd be surprised if he's in more than like 3 or 4 scenes here.

More than likely he'll be "the guy Nick sees a lot of potential in, and is just starting to trust him with a few important things here-and-there, gradually grooming him for more responsibility/higher roles" type of thing. Not some junior red-shirt, but still basically Joe Average S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who's showing lots of promise for the future.

 

[Abudefduf]

Filming has officially finished. Marvel, why don't you celebrate by finally telling us who's playing who? That'd be nice.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

People expecting Coulson to have a major part I never this or be co-lead (really?) are going to be sorely disappointed. This is Carol’s movie, through and through, as it should be.

And I am speaking as someone who likes AOS a lot and have watched it from the start.

 

[The Sand Master]

I find we go around in circles with this one as they never listen.

Not people, person the usual AOS fan.

Well they have 8 months, 4-5 months until the trailer so just have to be patient like Cap said.

If anything I see him being the guy that finds Fury after his eye accident.

 

[Aximili86]

Doesn't even need to be anything as specific as that. Fury probably keeps pretty close tabs on his people, handpicking people of good character he sees having a big future at S.H.I.E.L.D.

Just go with that, Phil's basically a competent nobody in the first half of the 90s, but he's obviously a really good dude with a responsible head on his shoulders and of impressive moral character, and Nick's just starting out sort of gradually bringing him into the "hey, look! alien ****!" fold.

nice, I expect trailer to drop somewhere between late August and early September.

 

[Loki882]

I hope that Peggy Carter makes an appearance here.
