The Marvels 2023

★★★½

Watched 10 Nov 2023

America’s super hero moment is over. A musical number, kittens that eat people but don’t kill them? apparently and space hijinks won’t be enough to save the MCU. I guess they are hoping The Young Avengers can! Kamala Khan was the best part of the movie, and it almost should’ve been designed as a Ms. Marvel movie with Captain Marvel tie-ins. Oh what to do with Captain Marvel ten years + into the MCU project. I don’t think Kevin Feige knows anymore then I do. He might be onto something with the Young Avengers, which even if it comes out in 2025 could be the future of a Kangless MCU. Ms. Marvel, Kate Bishop, America Chavez, and Cassie Lang have all been some of the best parts of their respective movies and played by funny up and coming actors. While Feige waits for his Fantastic Four and X-Men to take flight, the only way to save the original MCU might be the kids. After all the kids are alright.

It’s also a shame how after how promising Little Woods is Nia Decosta got stuck doing Jury Duty. I mean it’s not a bad movie! and go make bank! but you could do so much more with your career
