PROS
1) Three of the people who carried the title of "Captain Marvel" in the comic books appeared in this film. I was particularly thrilled the CM #2 made an appearance! I'm hoping she's eventually be shown in the contemporary MCU timeline under one of her alternate monikers, especially since said moniker was her mom's callsign.
2) The change of a certain characters nickname from "Chewie" to "Goose" totally made sense with the change in Carol's age.
3) It was great seeing Coulson on the big screen again!
4) All the girl power digs!
CONS
1) Not enough Coulson.
2) The changes in Carol's backstory in the MCU means she never was Ms. Marvel, which also means the battle royale between Ms. Marvel and Rogue will never happen on the big screen, even though Marvel has the rights to the X-Men back. I'm a little sad about this.
Best of all, there's no more questions about whether audiences will watch movies about female superheroes.
Overall, Captain Marvel earned 10 stars out of 10. It's definitely on my must-buy list!
