Reel Film Nerds

What a glorious day!!!  It is our review of the first Marvel Cinematic Universe film of the year, Captain Marvel!  We hope you are as excited as your two hosts’.  The boys stay on point for most of the double sized pod.  Bonus topics include Matt has more movie going issues, Mike really is a hardcore movie nerd, and a bit of comic book history about Captain Marvel including Kelly Sue DeConnick’s infamous run from 2012-2015 that the movie Carol Danvers is mostly based on.  There is no MCU tie because duh this movie is in the MCU!  A heads up though our spoiler section of the podcast starts at the 17 minute mark for those of you that have not seen the film yet. No big surprise here but both the gents enjoyed Captain Marvel very much.  Mike enjoyed it just a touch more.  The acting was great, at times, the soundtrack was great especially if you are a child of the 90’s, and the sets looked pretty dang good too.  The story was decent but the telling of Danvers’ origin story through flashbacks worked at times but
