Batman Forever and Batman & Robin with their neon motifs weren't colorful? Kick-Ass wasn't full of colorful costumes? The Phantom didn't have a purple guy running around in the jungle? You have to remember, there are way more comic book movies than just Marvel and the DCEU.

So the big criticism they can come up with is "colorful"?

Total nonsense. Merchandise that is produced before the movie and advertised in commercials that end in "see the movie" are movie PR. Professor X on a box of twinkies before the movie comes out is meant to get twinkie eaters to see the movie. Directors dont know about Twinkies or food commercials. If Fox was heavy on gaining more money from merch, they would have ordered Singer to start using colourful costumes so they could sell toys easier to kids. Prof X on twinkies doesnt make the movies targetted heavily to kids because nothing in the movie is affected. Having Carol Danvers wear a bright sparkly suit on a vivid post is directly pandering to the toy buyers market, and it affects the film. [/div]
[/quote] Inaccurate im afraid. Xmen pg13 movies do indeed have gorier violence, more profanity and nudity than counterpart Disney MCU movies. I dont know about DCEU. There was a whole thread the other week about how the F word is never uttered in 20 MCU movies yet appears in numerous X films that are PG13. Smoking is not allowed in Disney MCU movies but is shown in PG13 Xmen Nudity in any form is forbidden in Disney MCU yet is frequent in Pg13 XMen as High on ecstasy showed imdb2.freeforums.net/thread/128456/film-nudityTony Starks alcoholism is dropped in favour of PTSD. Xaviers arc in DOFP doesnt shy from substance and alcohol abuse (shown sticking needles in himself) Pg13 Xmen films are more violent than Disney MCU. More blood shown and combat violence such as beheadings and throat slashes in Xmen Apocalypse especially when Wolverine breaks out. This is harder to gauge without statistical hard evidence for across the board of each franchise so its more of a observational hunch.

Or it's being faithful to the source material. Looks like Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel showcasing her powers to me. How else should they display her? In black leather with dark clouds and rain pouring over her?
Gore, profanity, nudity, substance abuse, alcoholism, etc. in the X-films always seems like things thrown in for shock value, almost like they're trying too hard to come off as serious and mature. More often than not, it feels forced and not natural. These things don't make a film better.

And its not about similing its the lack of any emotion in her face. How are viewer's meant to engage with a cardbiard cutout. Hopefully tonights trailer gives us something different.

Just pointing out that those things show that taylors statement is inaccurate when he said MCU movies market their films to kids just as much as the Fox Xmen pg13.

Not everything needs to be Days of Future Past. I think for you, these things do make these films better. Mostly because of your need for things to be grounded, dark and realistic/mature.

She probably smiles when she farts. she smiled 2 times in the trailer, very mildly so but it is there. Jackson is such a lucky man.

I would have her displayed like the dark Phoneix pics I posted earlier. Cap marvel is a copy n.paste with all that body flare effects but with added colour. Or a wonder woman poster style. And no not necessarily those things make it better. But something like xaviers drug abuse does make his arc more impactful than if they used something lighter.

Since Superman doesn’t smile anymore, I guess that’s the new precedent.

Since Superman doesn’t smile anymore, I guess that’s the new precedent. Maybe like this? Not big enough, huh? Lets try the last 2 minutes of the film. The HORROR - blatant smiles more than once, shockingly even during the very FINAL shot as CLOSE UP, completing the arc? This man really does not smile anymore. Maybe instead of engaging in whiny deflections try watching the movies and to understand what they are saying and why. Makes a difference.

Who hasnt seen Captain Marvel, your comment should be directed at them. The comment is relative to expectations. Is your or the OP’s argument that Carol will literally NEVER smile? Unlikely. More like if she doesn’t smile enough, she’s being criticized for it. Similar to how Superman was particularly unsmilely, even though you could find a few moments in 7+ hours of movies where he wasn’t entirely dour. I’m not bashing it, it’s just Snyder’s style.

Sounds like you're just waiting for Marvel to be more like Fox and DC. If after this long, you're still not used to the way Marvel does things, maybe you should just give up.

Those aren't movie posters, although I would say trying watching the movies to understand the hows and whys is a perfectly serviceable answer to the Captain Marvel movie too.
