Majority of us pretty much agree that Wonder Woman was a better movie than Captain Marvel.
So the question now is: what are some things that Captain Marvel did better than Wonder Woman?
I'll start with an easy one: CM had better CGI.

The climax was shorter. I didn't hate the Ares fight as much as a lot of others did but it did overstay its welcome.

CM had a better supporting cast for the hero.
The music was much better.

While the villains weren't particularly compelling in CM, they weren't straight up cartoon characters like they were in WW. Agree Wonder Woman is the better film, though.

Sure it does. That finale fight where she's flying around in space blowing up space ships looked cheezy as hell. And everytime that cats head opened up with the stupid ass tentacles? Cheez. And the Skrulls? Their make up made them look stiff. Why couldn't they turn their heads or open their mouths? In an MCU movie they couldn't do better than that?

Guess we'll just have to disagree on this. Yeah sure, the Skrulls could have been better... but they were still hell of a lot better than CGI Ares. |

I actually loved the General (Huston) and Doctor Poison in WW. Their dynamic was delightfully demented. Really what Joker and HQ should had been like in retrospect.

You haven't even seen Captain Marvel. You made this obvious with your comment about local cops at Blockbuster. Fair and unbiased my ass...

WW is superior in every conceivable way.

Captain Marvel 3rd act didn't piss me off as much. So I guess there's that.

Liked WW more overall, but CM had a better cast, better writing, definitely better third act.

WW was a little bit better overall, but CM didn't have an obnoxious love story thrown in, and it's villain, though still lame, wasn't as painfully bad as in WW.

I'd probably say the villain.

WW felt very derivative of Thor & First Avenger.
She was worse of a fish out of water since Thor at least interacted with humans before. Diana was ultra over-protected.
The whole bit where they go to a bar to put together the team was reminiscent of the Howlong Commandos agreeing to team up with Steve.
Both Steves going down in planes?
At least we didn't have the sex before battle so Trevor could make Diana a real woman.
There was a scene where Diana is riding a horse chasing down a baddie that seemed really similar to a shot in First Avenger of Cap on his motorcycle
I gave WW a 7 & CM a 9.
I resonated more with Carol as another woman.
Yeah, I know that means crap to all you little blue arrows
I recognized all the little put-downs to keep Carol from reaching her full potential. When she punched Yon-rogg because she realized she didnt have to play on his terms, it was great.
So...
Pretty much CM was infinitely more real girlpower than WW to me.
