We agree to disagree. Stark coming out as Iron Man at the end of Iron Man 1 set the precedent

I'm old school and used to get annoyed at how they would twist the plot solely for the actor to take his mask off (see Michael Keaton revealing his identity to Kim Basinger in Batman Returns or the plot gymnastics to get Tobey's mask off in all three of his Spider-Mans, or The Shadow when Alec Baldwin was only The Shadow at the beginning of the movie and then was Alec Baldwin for the rest).

The MCU just said fuck it and outed them. A secret ID would be old school IRL when all anybody has to do is Google you. It's a great balance between them fully suited up and maskless (Cap: The Winter Soldier where he was plainclothes 2/3 of the movie) but sometime it doesn't work (Iron Man 3)

Secret IDs are part of the old school DC pantheon no doubt (Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne etc), but these were second and third-tier Marvel characters before they blew up in movies. I think it was a good call

I am incredibly geeked for this. I was in tears at the end of this trailer yeah I said it

I tried to feel Brie Larson but I just don't. Just blank-faced. People on Twitter were going crazy about Captain Marvel and Thor getting together. But why, if she's a lesbian lol

They really made Captain Marvel a lesbian?

Also interesting the Twitter crowd is rooting for a Thor & Captain Marvel 'ship, when they're usually whining about how they want to see LGBT 'ship in these MCU movies.

She's not a lesbian, trust me if they revealed in her movie that she was a lesbian the LGBT community would be all over social media talking about it.

She did have weird chemistry with her female friend, but she had the same kind of chemistry with Fury and nobody is 'shipping" them.

That "weird chemistry" was lesbianism. Particularly the scene where Rambeau was waxing poetic about how great and brave her "special friend" was. They couldn't come out and say it because it's a Disney movie. They didn't give Carol Danvers any kind of a male love interest a la Wonder Woman for a reason

Oh and click the Captain Marvel hashtag on Twitter, the lesbians feminists are having a field day lol

Unless I see some of this onscreen I'm still going to assume two females can be just close friends.

I'm not blind to the fact that there is a little pandering going on in that movie, I'm just saying two people of the same gender should be able to be close friends without it being seen as romantic. So unless they specifically point to her being a lesbian I'm going to assume they are just friends. After all, in real life, LGBT people make up less than 5% of the population, so I'm playing the odds.

Soooo, I just heard that the CW may do an Arrow spin-off show centering around his daughter, Blackstar. I guess their whole superhero line up will be female centered except The Flash.

Doesn't sound very interesting. Her character isn't any good in the current season. I'm not watching a whole show built around her.

This sounds sad. Luckily between Netflix, DC, and Disney, we will have other options. They will probably attempt a female centered spinoff of flash involving the daughter.

I saw article headlines for this rumor/news on the Google Chrome app homepage on my phone throughout this week, but I didn't bother to read the article. I've always HATED the Olicity pairing on "Arrow", so yeah I gotta be against this potential "Blackstar" spinoff.

But the chick who plays Blackstar/Mia Smoak on "Arrow", Katherine McNamara, is the same chick who is lead actress on the Freeform show "Shadowhunters". So I can already see The CW jumping on this Blackstar spinoff because they already got an established TV leading actress to be the lead.

It has only been one episode into the new season but it looks like they're keeping the weirdness, stylish cinematography and bizarre storytelling up with all the changes they made.
