Damn the last Star Wars movie for hyper-sensitizing people to social agendas. It's having a toxic, negative effect on the entertainment industry as a whole.

Imho it’s a better story than Ironman, but Robert Downey Jr was so perfectly cast as Tony that he’s really in a world custom built for him... it’s hard to truly compare. However, it’s easier to compare to Cap: First Avenger or Black Panther. It really grounds Marvel as a relatable character, and does a FANTASTIC job of building upon Nick Fury as a character. Just overall a great end product. The world is just as vivid as the title character. I don’t care one way or the other about Brie as a person. I don’t agree with almost ANY Hollywood types or most musicians as far as social/political leanings. But I care about the entertainment value of the movies. And for me, Captain Marvel easily tops the “origin story” category.

The nasty trolling reminds me of the seething hatred of the Venom movie by the throngs of Gaga fanatics and trolls lamenting the pg13 rating. This movie will overcome the machismo trolls. Is it a powerful pro-woman film? Yes. But that’s not the focus of the film, just like it wasn’t for Wonderwoman or Bumblebee. Definitely a movie young daughters should see.
