Fun Fact: Brie Larson is deadly allergic to cats
Where dat Endgame at
I’m aware.
If you ever need to heal your soul i highly recommend watching the Harry potter 20th anniversary reunion. It's sooo good and fills your heart with love.
i don't think i understand why can't i see the movie. I only see you and your reactions. but on the youtube i can see both.
On here, you need your own video to watch, simultaneously (on a different device) while she reacts, in real time. There is no time for editing. It's the truest form of reaction video. On YouTube, here reaction is edited, and the video being reacted to is included.
Hey hey I just stumbled upon your YouTube reactions. What day/days do you stream live?
Just wanted to add this before the next reaction- Internet: Eralia can react to movies all the live-long day, but…that up there? That's the Endgame. How were you guys planning on helping her react to THAT? Patrons: Together. Internet: She'll cry. Patrons: Then we'll do that together, too.
Which avengers movie is that from? is it ultron?
New Rockstars YouTube Channel is the go to for all your Easter Egg breakdown needs
"How do you aim with your gun, if you have bangs?" But doesn't every gun make bangs?
I would do it the same way I did in Boot camp when I had problems seeing the target... a bullseye every time.
I was waiting for you to get to watch this one. With the whole USAF and Goose. I know that the work life, especially now, can keep you way too busy so THANK YOU for taking some of your time to share with us. End Game is going to be great, but if you get a chance to watch some of the Marvel series, watch Wanda Vision and Miss Marvel before "The Marvels". They are not really main plot anymore but I thought they were fun offshoots of this movie. And might come into more play with the multiverse expanding.
Thank you so much for doing these, Eralia. You are truly amazing for taking any of your free time to watch these with us and bring us your wonderful presence and reactions. Doing what you've been doing lately with work, it's just a blessing for all of us to have you and these reactions. You made it to the end of the Infinity Saga!! It's been so much fun and I can't wait to watch your Endgame reaction and then go with you wherever you decide to go after that! Much love.
This is the one I have been waiting for you to watch and you are going to be stunned. You must have loved Goose. There is another movie you will absolutely love named "Free Guy" which revolves around online gaming and you will want to see "Deadpool 2" real soon but only after watching Green Lantern. Stan will still make appearances but it will be interesting to see if you can find him on billboards.
1:50:40 If you want theres an amazing channel called that brakes down marvel movies called New Rockstars, one of my fav youtube channels and if you want a breakdown with easter eggs and references you probably dont know about thats the channel for ya
As always, I (and I know a lot of us here) really appreciate that even when you’re clearly overworked and exhausted, you still take the time to sit down and watch these with us — not out of obligation, but because you genuinely enjoy sharing the experience. I also had to laugh at the end when you said not to roast you for missing things because not all the brain cells are firing… and then you still picked up on a bunch throughout the movie. Still very onto it, even while completely knackered. This movie is definitely a bit of a controversial one, but I’d honestly forgotten how fun it is. It seems to carry a bit of a weird reputation online, but watching it again through a fresh perspective like yours really reminded me how enjoyable it actually is. It was also nice seeing Stan Lee’s cameo here. We sadly lost him around the time this came out, which was a huge loss, but at least he got to see so many of his creations brought to life and turned into the “Marvel” that is the MCU (couldn’t resist). And now… next up is the big one. We finally made it — Endgame. You mentioned needing to prepare yourself emotionally, and honestly, that’s probably a good call. As excited as I am to see your reaction, this one really is an emotional rollercoaster, so definitely go in when you’re in a good headspace for it. I am absolutely perched and cannot wait. Until then, take care of yourself.
Honestly, I really love this one, too! I know that a lot of people didn't care for her, but... I just don't get that, myself. And... yeah. Onto Endgame and the shows beyond! You're going to love WandaVision and the others, I'm sure of it!
IT'S TTTTIIIMMEEEEEE!!!!
Endgame time 🙌🏽
next
StarCraft mentioned! ❤️
The one time your hair isn’t high and tight and it’s a military movie!! Hope all is well, I know it’s a total cluster f in your end of the world, stay safe!! Thanks so much for the uploads during so much chaos irl. Looking very much forward to End Game. IMO after you should watch the Spider-Man sequel and Wandavision. Both fantastic follow ups to the events of end game. - neil
ehh far from home was pretty middle of the road tbh, I wouldn’t exactly call it a fantastic follow up, but definitely worth a watch
Don't bother preparing yourself mentally for Endgame.
at some point you should check out Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Agent Coulson & others Spinoff)
I'm sure you were probably made aware but Cpt Marvel is probably the most OP character in the mervel universe (hense the name) so makes it a bit awkward to put her in stories cos she is just broken as hellll
Yeah it's the same reason Vision got immediately stabbed and nerfed in Infinity War. Their presence on the field at full strength wildly throws off the metrics. All of the heroes born from an Infinity Stone are like that but CM especially.
Great reaction as always, can’t wait to see you watch Endgame. It is an exquisite movie. Top grossing $$$$ film ever BTW. Fare thee well. 🍻
NGL e, watching this with your perspective accompanying the viewing just amplified both my love for this film And my excitement for us "inevitably" reaching the endgame. Stay safe over there! ❤️🖖😅
I know you gotta do what's right for you and your channel and your schedule and your mental health and all that, but that all being said, I humbly but strongly advise you watch End Game prior to releasing your edit of this on YouTube, because the comments there will be absolutely brutal. They're tempered here because we're all paying to watch you. (That sounded weird, but YOU know what I mean.) Trolls shall abound, and hopefully none of them ruin End Game for you.
Loved the reaction. My only hope is you keep going with release order even when it comes to the shows, because I'm getting bored of reactors that skip stuff and then are all confused as to why things are happening, or not recognizing characters that they should know. (There are lots that are doing this after endgame. Please don't be one!)
"Lieutenant Trouble" shows up later the a more recent movie "The Marvels"
Maybe remove this as it is spoilery
It's unfortunate that this movie developed the undeserved reputation of being "the worst MCU movie" just because it happened to be released at the same time in history that the internet incel movement first gained a full head of steam. It's only because of bad timing that the yet to be recognized "manosphere" lead the charge to condemn this movie only because Marvel dared to make a woman the most overpowered hero yet seen in the MCU. Is it a perfect film? No. Is the CG the best seen in theaters? No. But is it a bad movie? NO! If you disagree, grow up kids.
It being bad has nothing to do with the hero being a woman. She's powerful, that's not the issue, the issue is that she has no challenges whatsoever. She just immediately solves all her problems with hardly an effort. It's not a gender issue because it's the same problem many Superman stories have. Powerful characters need powerful challenges.
I was actually hoping after the movie you would mention Goose. Of all the strange things we have seen it was quite a shock such an innocent looking creature exists. So maybe in Earth myths those sphynx were actually flerken.
Very Glad you like it! <3 Take care of you and thanks for your Service o7
Well, you made it......ENDGAME
So very happy you could find the time to watch another movie! I wish us all VERY SELFLESSLY more world peace so you can watch more films with us!! :D
just want to say it sucks what you're going through and I appreciate that you've been putting out these videos in spite of it all. it's almost too bad that Endgame will devastate you because it's also top-tier and the culmination of everything you've been watching for like months
I like this movie. I know many people found it disappointing. When this came out, everyone was so focused on Endgame that many saw anything else as a distraction and a disappointment compared to what we’d get 2 months later.
All of the bad hype was from misogynistic ass wipes review bombing it before it even came out
"We had Wanda and Gamora, but we really haven't had another female protagonist..." Poor Natasha. Key character for so many of the movies, propped up a couple and only given hers post-Endgame (and even that was to serve as a warm up for a new main character). I mean, even Clint got more attention w/ a series... wtf? Anywho. I'd forgotten how fun this flick this was. It made for a great way to unwind after work on a Friday. As always -- thanks for sharing, Eralia! Be safe and take care of yourself.
First time doing watch along. Not just with you, but ever, and I love the experience. Thanks. Can't wait for the next one.
This movie has some crossover with Guardians of the Galaxy. You may have recognized Korath, one of the guys in Yon-Rogg's Kree special ops unit (that Carol was also a member of while she was brainwashed) is the same guy who confronts Peter Quill in Guardians of the Galaxy after he steals the power stone at the start of the movie. There's also Ronan the Destroyer (he's a Kree) which you noticed at the end. Not sure if there's more, but probably. This movie also sets up the Secret Wars tv series with Nick Fury and Talos. Also interesting comic trivia, DC Comis used to have a character that was called Captain Marvel but at lot later, for some reason, Marvel comics came out with a character also named Captain Marvel and somehow won the legal rights and then DC changed the name of their character to Shazam!
Oh, and Stan Lee died before this came out so he got the special tribute in Marvel opening. But he had filmed one more cameo before his death.
Stan Lee was reading the script for Mallrats, a movie he did a cameo in the 90s. It was my first time ever seeing him on screen, so it kind of felt fitting that this was one of the last times I saw him on screen.
Just to prepare you for Avengers Endgame, it’s 3 hours long.
Nice one. Probably better if you aren't over-analyzing right now and just letting it bubble in the back of your brain. We had like a year to over think everything and potentially get spoiled by theories/hype. When you get to Avengers: Endgame, I hope you can see it when you've got time to watch and then just absorb it for a while afterwards.
Since you were talking about there being so many Easter eggs... in the scene where she meets Stan Lee, he was reading the script for "Mallrats", a movie he also appeared in that would have been filming or pre-filming IRL at about the time "Captain Marvel" is set.
Would love to see her watch Mallrats.
I think you didn't miss too much. One of the Kree strike force members was in the first guardians of the galaxy movie. Yah, Endgame is next, buckle yourself in, definitely don't watch it before work. ~_^
Great reaction! You caught a lot more of the connections to earlier films than any other reactor I've seen. There really was only one "major" one you missed; One of the Kree in her little "Starforce" unit was Korath, a character you've seen before in the first Guardians movie. He was the guy that confronted Star-Lord at the start of the movie, as he was finding the Power Stone on Morag. Near the end of the GotG film Drax kills him when giving a callback to the "finger to the throat means death"-line. Endgame next! Wow, if ever there was a film _not_ to watch when running low on time and sleep... 🤣 Looking forward to it!
"You missed... Korath." - "Who?..." "Korath, man! You know, famous Kree... forget it."
I’m sorry you had to watch this one:/ Brie Larson sucks as captain marvel
I guess you must be disappointed that she apparently enjoyed it so much.
Great watch! Make sure to watch ‘Ms. Marvel’ and ‘Wandavision’ before the next Captain Marvel film ♥️
Holy shit! Now we’re in the Endgame! Can’t wait!! Great reaction!! This movie for some reason got a lot of hate and I don’t understand it. It doesn’t have to be the best movie in the whole MCU to be a good movie. I always enjoyed this movie as part of the whole picture. Like you said, it had a great backstory and all the lore. And Captain Marvel has a bunch of comic lore beyond all this so I’m excited to see what else they might do! This was fun! Stay safe and take care of yourself.
Captain Marvel is not my favorite MCU movie but I thought it was pretty good, I agree that it walked a fine line between being good and being cringy girl boss... Unfortunately, after End Game Marvel did cross over to cringy on some of it's female movies, such as She-Hulk and The Marvels and even Thor Love and Thunder..., at least IMO, but you should see for yourself... R.I.P. Stan the man.... It's crazy to think that he created and co-created most of these characters... And Eralia, stay safe, it's crazy times out there...
I know a handful of people are telling you not to continue after Endgame. 🙄 It goes without saying you should keep your own counsel on that. But if you have proven anything on this journey, it's that the norms of this franchise don't apply to you. So far you have not only enjoyed but absolutely adored the very worst that the MCU has had to offer (up to this point). And personally I think what will be your favorites are still yet to come. Post-Endgame MCU will always be controversial and yes mistakes were definitely made. It's almost impossible to recreate the gravitas of the Infinity Saga. They were idiots to try....and we were idiots to expect it. 😂 But there is still great entertainment value there whatever the haters say.
And given the space where they made some mistakes, they seem to be finding their footing and ramping up and all of the stories will still intertwine so they’re all important even if they’re not as good as the other so I completely agree. It won’t be the infinity saga, but there are some great times coming in 2026 and beyond I think.
Love Cpt. Marvel!!! and so happy I got to see you react to it! I don't know if I'm more excited for you to react to End Game or Black Widow! Stay Safe!
Yay, the final step before Endgame! Unfortunately I’m away for the weekend so I won’t be able to watch it just yet, but I’m really looking forward to catching up with this as soon as I’m back!
Watching tonight when I get home. Yay!!! Not my favorite but you watching it makes it worth it.
Thank you for sharing everything that you do. I have been looking forward to each new installment. I hope you are taking good care of yourself. I'm eagerly awaiting what's coming.
I believe this was the 1st MCU movie to premier after Stan Lee died, that's why the Marvel intro was all Stan Lee cameos.
Okay, here goes. I'm definitely going to cry during the standing-up montage. Such is life.
It's endgame time!!
Loved your reaction. There were a lot of haters out there of the actress but I really liked her. I thought she did really well like you said not being too over the top. Can’t believe you didn’t recognize Ronan the accuser till late lol, but I understand you got a lot going on. 😊 ❤️
Seriously looking forward to seeing this movie with your perspective, for reasons that I *think* are relevant? (Unless I'm misremembering a detail. Edit: Yes, Air Force, you said at the end. Not sure why I was reluctant to say that in the first version of my comment!) BTW, If at some point way down the road you feel like watching a companion TV show that ties in and features [spoiler redacted], I recommend "Agents of SHIELD." (At least the first few seasons.) Thank you for these posts, and if there's any way to give us a brief heads up on the release of End Game so we can all 'watch together' in spirit, that would be Flurken awesome.
You didn’t miss anything. Even as a military zombie you are still making all the connections. One more to go Endgame!!!!
Great reaction! I definitely enjoyed this movie after watching for the second time. Endgame is gonna be a great time! You’ll have a great time watching it!
Peggy Carter was around when the war stuff morphed into SHiELD. Cap says to dementia Peggy that he joined SHiELD because she helped found it. *the Agent Carter show is enjoyable enough but it so far hasn't really connected to anything, therefore skipable.
I liked this one. 👍🏻
And I know you have practically zero personal time outside work, but try to watch Endgame when you can have time to process. Maybe time for a little lie-down too. It's gonna hit hard.
And you know how I said you weren't ready for Infinity War? Double that for Endgame. You won't be the same.
I fully support content with a positive social message. But the delivery was so heavy-handed it was unpleasant and made me uncomfortable. And rip Stan Lee; one man affecting so many lives, was the TRUE marvel. Excelsior forever. 🫶🏻
13 year old me would have LOVED this film. 43 year old me cringed a bit & thought "less is more guys". I just try to remember it skewed young is all. Helps set up Ms Marvel that way too.
Now troll us all & watch something like John Wick 2 or the Harry Potter 20yr Reunion Special.
I enjoyed this movie! Any hints on when your Avengers: Endgame watch-along will drop on YouTube? I know you're busy. I'm just trying to fit that into my own busy schedule. Endgame is... BONKERS!! :)
i haven’t had any time unfortunately, but i’m hoping to watch it in the next few days and get it edited for yall!
Hope all is going well for you Eralia! This is definitely one of the more underrated Marvel movies that gets no love, but I enjoy it! I can’t wait to watch this tonight with ya! We are in the Endgame now!! Let’s gooooo! Thanks and take care Eralia!
Endgame is right around the corner.
Captain Marvel is one of my favorite characters. I didn't love they left out most of her issues, part of what made me love the character, but the movie is great. Really hope you enjoyed it!
I'll bet you won't look at cats the same way after this.
Nice hair, E!
LET'S FUCKING GO! I love this one. It's so different and Brie Larson is QUEEN!
