I was definitely expecting that to happen, although I was just so delighted by Aladna I couldn't be too bothered by what I was missing out on

Well, The Marvels was *delightful*!
Also: Young Avengers! Young Avengers!

I also want to know how many women Tessa Thompson turned gay by wearing that suit, because DAMN.

And one more thought about The Marvels: I never ever thought I would hear an Andrew Lloyd Webber song in an MCU movie. I was HOWLING with laughter at “Do not run from the flerkens. Let them eat you.” and at Kamala pointing the flerkittens at the SABRE agents. I would have liked to see at least one SABER agent shrug and go “This might as well happen” before getting gobbled up by a flerkitten.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Steph, the answer is ALL OF US, except for women who have seen Tessa Thompson in a suit before. Because, indeed, DAMN.
My family debated on the way home which song from Cats we would have chosen for that scene instead of Memory. (It's a classic for a reason, but imagine if they'd used Magical Mister Mistoffelees.)

Good point, Jess! I would have enjoyed that song there.
I saw The Marvels last Friday, and I had a blast! There were plot points that I totally didn't expect, and that's all too rare in Marvel movies these days. While yes, there were serious bits, I don't remember the last time I had so much fun at a movie. I'm totally getting the dvd when it's available.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
The Marvels was great. I can't remember the last time I laughed non-stop for the amount of time I did during the "let the flerkens eat you" scene.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
The Marvels made me so happy! The first Flerkitten to hatch was a blue point meezer. A Harvey-baby! My sweet, smart boy didn't die last year, he was just in post-production! I was so busy being proud of my boy I did not notice how otherwise brilliantly funny the scene was. Plus, how do you not love Kamala Khan?
