Danvers is not as big a character as Wonder Woman for one.

Two: That guy is an idiot and doesn't speak for people that like the Marvel movies.

Yes. You are right. He doesn't speak for everybody that likes Marvel movies but there are sadly a number of male comic book fans that fit the above description who don't want any female lead comic book series being made into movies 'cause they claim men hating feminists are trying to take over 'their' genre despite there being hundreds of female lead comic book series and they are quite bitter over Wonder Woman being successful and are saying the box office figures are made up. These people are on both ends of the extreme and a lot of extreme fans hate female fans.

I agree with you that Carol Danvers isn't as big of a character as Wonder Woman or Batgirl or Supergirl but she has higher all time sales as Ms Marvel and Captain Marvel than some of the other superheroes Marvel has made movies of like Thor, Ant Man and Guardians of the Galaxy and of as others have pointed out and as Marvel's biggest selling female superhero should have been in the MCU as Ms Marvel before Black Widow.

But at the same time, Thor, Ant-man and even the Guardians are better known names than Danvers. Danvers had a small push with the help of Rogue, but nothing else really. She just never became popular. Marvel is trying like crazy to get her name out in the comics and in animated series before her movie. But I don't think it matters. Marvel has built enough goodwill that they can make any character into a movie and it could do well critically and financially.

If you think about it, it could be a good move to have waited. She could be the MCU's new flagship character. If Evans and Downey walk away from their roles after the next 2 Avengers movies then Danvers's fresh meat could be a good thing when they cycle again.
