Captain Marvel, the fem version, is coming. Captain Marvel, the feminine version, played by Brie Larson, is one of the most powerful superheroes of all time. More powerful than Wonder Woman? More powerful then Superman? More powerful than Thanos? I thought Thanos was supposed to be the most powerful entity of them all, with his stones of power. But no, the good guys always win (or almost always, in the dark past, before superheroes had to fight the dark side of their nature and their flaws and the hostility of good people who don't like the superheroes for one reason or another). I'm still disappointed that Hela (Cate Blanchett) did not appear in the latest Avengers movie and kick everyones' asses (except for the Big Bad Guy, Thanos). She would have been a bigger, badder villain than the pussies that Thanos had working for him. Just my opinion. Cate Blanchett is a great actress, and I think she did a great job as Hela. | |

Wow, I can't be the only PU member who ever watches movies. I know pat362 used to see a few movies, at least, in a year. He doesn't visit the PU site as much recently (the entire site seems to have quieted down), but isn't there anyone else that might see a movie, either in a theater or on cable or DVD or whatever? No one else wants to comment on the upcoming movies, whether it's Captain Marvel or anything else they might be interested in? I know I personally don't get as much enjoyment from movies as I used to, and they now cost more than ever. But isn't anyone willing or interested in the movies any more? Or is that a topic that is better discussed on some other platform: site, twitter, facebook, etc.? | |

DC is coming out with Shazam! which also features the original Captain Marvel (or the Big Red Cheese as fans call him). I never read the Marvel version as they created the comic when the copyright of the character was not renewed. (At the time, DC bought the comics company Fawcett which used to publish Captain Marvel and let it slip into obscurity. Only when a few new writers decided they wanted to bring back the character did DC care.) I do think the latest DC comic movies are a mixed bag at best. Disney/Marvel seems to know what they are doing. DC only has a few really good comic book movies. They are doing well on the TV series front. Maybe they should stop the DC movie Universe and stick with television. "Dogs think people are Gods. Cats don't as they know better." - Kedi (2016) Dogs have masters; Cats have staff. | |

I'm almost 20 years older than mer77. I grew up reading all kinds of comics. Didn't have any money, I read them while standing in a drugstore, reading the comics that were on a rack. Read Captain Marvel, Superman, Batman, The Three Stooges (they even had 3D comics back then, that you could read with special glasses). Read whatever was on the metal comic book stand. Stopped reading the comics in the early 1960s. So I was not aware of all the changes in comic books. Looked at some comic books in the 1990s and later. But the comics seemed so different, I couldn't get into them. The characters that I knew were changed completely. When I grew up, the hero might give the girl a single kiss in an episode. If that. Today, everyone is sleeping around, having babies, whatever. The heroes have mental problems, instead of being a Red, White and Blue hero. I just can't enjoy reading the comics today. Maybe I should try to find an old comic from the 1950s and see if it's still enjoyable and readable for me. Anyway, I never knew Captain Marvel had a feminine version until recently. I might see the Captain Marvel movie, or not. Just depends on the previews and how I feel. But that's just me. I'm not a big fan of comic book movies, in general. I did like Captain America, the first one. And Wonder Woman. But I could easily have passed on most of the other comic book movies. Though I have seen a lot of them on DVD. From Redbox, for about $1.50 each. Which is about what they are worth, to me. | |

I also would read magazines and comic books at the drugstore until an employee would remind me and my friends we were not at a library. I also used to have an extension comic book collection but gave it away years ago. I still have reminders of my comic book past and do enjoy comic book movies for the most part. I was never really big on Marvel but a fan of DC (mainly because my best buddy collected DC only). As for going to the movies today: It costs too much money for me. $9.50 is the cheapest for bargain prices with most charging up to $15 for evening shows. Add premium and 3D fees and the cost skyrockets. Then there is the popcorn prices. $10.50 for a tub of popcorn! Candy and pop costs $5 and up. Even children don't get a break as they pay adult prices if they are ten or older. Children under ten pay an average of $2 less these days, the same as when I was younger. There is a big difference as back then it was $3.50 for an adult (first run at night). As for Captain Marvel in the Marvel Universe, they have had many different takes on it. As I said above, Marvel just wanted the name but had no idea what to do with it. "Dogs think people are Gods. Cats don't as they know better." - Kedi (2016) Dogs have masters; Cats have staff. | |

That made me laugh. They told me the same thing. Must have been reading from the same script. When I got older, I still didn't have a lot of spending money. But instead of reading comics at the local drug store, I switched to reading paperback novels. I grew up. | |

Business Stan Lee files $1 billion lawsuit against former business partners People 17 hours ago Stan Lee is suing his former business partners for $1 billion dollars. The comic book legend, just filed a mammoth $1 billion lawsuit against his ex-business partners at POW! Entertainment, whom he claims took advantage of his name without his permission. Stan Lee is suing his former business partners for a dollar figure that would even make Tony Stark blush. The comic book legend, 95, just filed a mammoth $1 billion lawsuit against his ex-business partners at POW! Entertainment, whom he claims took advantage of his name without his permission, according to a complaint filed in Los Angeles and obtained by PEOPLE. Lee founded the production company in 2001 alongside current CEO Shane Duffy and Gill Champion, whom he claims in the complaint “conspired and agreed to broker a sham deal to sell POW! to a company in China and fraudulently steal [Lee’s] identity, name, image and likeness as part of a nefarious scheme to benefit financially at Lee’s expense.” Additionally, Lee claims Duffy and Champion “knowingly made material misrepresentations of fact, and forged or fraudulently obtained a signature from Lee to give POW! Inc. the exclusive use of Lee’s identity, name, image and likeness.” The complaints also claims that Duffy and Champion took advantage of Lee while he was grieving the loss of his wife Joan in 2017: “Upon her death, Lee at the age of 94 became the target of various unscrupulous businessmen, sycophants and opportunists who saw a chance to take advantage of Lee’s despondent mind, kind heart and devotion to his craft.” Lee claims in the complaint that Duffy and Champion “knew about [his] diagnosis of advanced macular degeneration, which has left him unable to read or drive on his own since about 2015, and they prayed (sic) on his infirmities while he was in a state of disrepair.” According to the complaint, POW! needed Lee’s permission to use his name, which he says he never knowingly gave. Therefore, the complaint claims, the production company either forged Lee’s signature, or tricked him into signing over the rights to his name, image and likeness. The complaint notes that Lee’s name is “the most important and prized possession Lee and his family owned his entire life” and that even when he inked a $4 billion deal with Disney in 2010, he refused to give the company the right to use his name. In addition to the $1 billion, Lee is asking for an order to get the rights to his name back. Meanwhile, Lee made a recent appearance at the Avengers: Infinity War premiere in Los Angeles at the end of April, his first public appearance since he revealed he’s battling pneumonia in late February to TMZ. Speaking to Disney on the Infinity War red carpet, Lee gave a shout out to his fans, thanking them “for having spent all these years coming to see my cameos [in the Marvel films].” On the day of the premiere, news broke of a lawsuit in which Lee is accused of sexual misconduct by a massage therapist who says he acted inappropriately with her during two separate sessions. A rep for Lee did not return PEOPLE’s request for comment at the time. Controversy has recently swirled around Lee, who sued a former business manager alleging fraud and has spoken out defending his daughter after others around him claimed she was trying to gain control of his assets. Lee lost his longtime wife Joan, who died at the age of 93 last July. “She was the girl I had been drawing all my life,” Lee once recalled of his late wife. | |
