Just got back from Captain Marvel, and may I just say:

Won't everyone please knock it off with the GODDAMN FUCKING SHAKY CAM

Also mild ematophobia warning for the final after-the-credits scene, but you may be able to guess and/or anticipate what it is from watching the rest of the movie and this tidbit of info, so you don't necessarily need to watch it.

Otherwise, absolutely fantastic film, would see again, but would prefer on the small screen so I don't get nauseous. Also want at least fifty more like it but with even more diverse casts, please get on that Hollywood.

(It's not nearly as bad as some other films I can name - I spent Bourne Supremacy with my head in my lap, and had to walk out of Hunger Games during the reaping - but the shaky cam does come in some pretty emotionally intense scenes, and I did not sit up high enough in the theater for that.)



Side note, saw the Dumbo trailer; at one point, Dumbo does indeed have a black feather to hold. Pretty sure there's going to be at least one crow in there now, though I hope to heaven someone in the production knows how to treat the issue respectfully. The fact that it's a Tim Burton picture does not fill me with hope :/

I have, at the moment, three fic plots where Cat Noir has to hide out in Marinette's room for safety. One is published (Under Cover(s)), one is in progress (Edit: Would eventually become Love is Stored in the Cat), and one is outlined but may never be written because the plot is very similar to Under Cover(s) even without the "cat shelter" bit. None of these plots are inherently bad (I like all of them, or I wouldn't even have outlined them), nor is the plot device of "CN needs to hide out with Marinette", but it does make me want to branch out a bit.

It seems like I'll be low-key looking for opportunities to flip the script and/or involve other characters in the future.
