      @gamer2021 8 місяців тому

      Did you not watch the marvels? Yeah, they literally spell out that she was a villain instead of a hero, specifically to the Kree.
      She even says that she was broken, and her ego got in front of her being able to be a hero at the time, and that's why the Kree are going after her.
      The part that's sexism is that you think characters like the flash, superman, cyborg insert any male character that is just granted powers without deserving it and think that's a shot against her instead of a trope in super heroes regardless of sex.

At one point we assumed Agatha manipulated her into doing it, but no. Agatha said she noticed what had happened and infiltrated the hex to figure out what was going on.
      Honestly, I don't mind the storyline like this but then they still wanted her to be heroic. If they leaned in to make her a full-fledged villain, that would've worked better.... to be fair to wanda, she did acknowledge what she did was wrong, but to make her feel better, Monica said those words.

    Then a random Skrull, who was trying to kill her until a few moments ago, tells her that 'No, no, we're actually the good guys, and your comarades with whom you've been training and fighting until now are actually evil villains!'

When he found out the Ten Rings had his weapons, he shut down his weapons division to stop it.

    Remember thinking of this idea years ago, Captain Marvel's own ego slowly takes over due to her overwhelming power and not having gone through serious effort to earn it. Begins deciding only she has the ability to deal with threats, starts actively threatening anyone that she perceives as taking away from her "duty". Despite this, her "saving" often causes massive collateral damage.
    During one particularly controversial engagement she deals with some villain in the obscure country of Latveria, and in so doing completely wrecks the home of a somewhat notable scientist and politician, leading to the death's of his Family and Friends, who were over for a celebration of his recent achievement of becoming nominated for leading one of the major political parties of the country. Victor von Doom, devastated by the loss of everyone close to him seeks revenge with the full resource of the country he will soon rule with an iron fist, to end the threat of the so called "Super-Hero".
    Boom: Next arc, Cpt. Marvel as a minor villian who eventually goes through a character arc during a civil-war event to become a bit more understanding of her powers, potentially due to serious injury and having to spend some time without the powers to re-learn humility, and Dr. Doom as the big overarching antagonist.

    Hold on. You say Captain Marvel is mischaracterized but I have to disagree. In the one comic I've read with Captain Marvel, Civil War 2, the Avengers find some kid who is capable of predicting the future. He says celestials are going to attack there, and celestials attack there. He says Thanos will show up there, and Thanos shows up there. He says some woman is about to walk into work with a briefcase full of shield secrets that she's about to sell to HYDRA, and some woman is about to walk into with, but her briefcase is empty. Still, two out of three isn't bad. Captain Marvel takes the stance that the avengers should use this kid to arrest people for crimes they haven't committed yet, and Iron Man takes the stance that "Carol Danvers, have you lost your mind?" Through out the bloody battle that ensues, Captain Marvel doesn't budge an inch. No SHIELD secrets are found anywhere on that one woman, she has no ties to HYDRA, and she's demanding to see a lawyer? Doesn't matter, she's guilty anyway. The kid says Miles Morales is going to murder (a huge, chaotic superpower fight is about to break out, that will inevitably involve Miles Morales fighting for his life against anyone who gets near him) Captain America, and the good Cap says Miles would never do that? No, Miles would totally do that, the kid said so. People die because of Captain Marvel's direct actions? Doesn't matter, Captain Marvel is right anyway.

      Considering how they were also trying to compare the scene from Terminator. Which also does a great disservice to that movie because of the major differences between the two. Starting with:
      1. The character was a robot that was programmed to say specific phrases, in a very particular way, but also is unable to show any emotion.
      2. The Terminator also asked for the items, before almost breaking the person’s body parts.
      3. The first movie, Terminator was clearly portrayed to be the villain, so when it did kill the dudes for the items, it is seen as something to fear of. While the second movie’s Terminator. Only caused a few bruises and scars as it was only there for the items.
      So looking at Carol Danvers, the reason why it fails so much is because she is human and apparently is able to have autonomy of what she’s doing. So, watching her almost break the dude’s arm off and the asking in a smug tone for the items, goes to show that the creators and possibly Brie Larson took so much from Terminator, yet didn’t seem to understand why certain events went down the way they did.

    Actually Carol visited Earth twice. Once after the snap, and five years later during the battle at Stark Ruins. Possibly even three. And in all that time, she never once visited her so called "friends" or anything, despite Fury literally being dusted and she would've had every motive to find out about her "long time friend" who she served with in the air force. Which makes her relationship with Monica much worse than if she never came to earth. At least you could've put her absence down to the bullshit she did in space after the first movie, but the fact that she never visited Monica in the two times she visits Earth, especially after the Snap, especially with her godlike abilities, speed and connection to Stark and his resources to find anyone, is absolutely damning.
