sunfortune:
okay but actually that scene when carol was like “youre terrorists!” to the skrull and he was like “no. We’re the victims, the cree have been manipulating you. theyre the ones killing us, we’re just trying to survive.” was actually a really surprising and pretty cool central plot for a major marvel movie to have even if it was all metaphorical, but then they Literally immediately ruined it in the next scene by having her be like:
“i cant wear the #Bad kree colors anymore! i need to replace them with #Good colors” and then replaced them with the us military colors and made Absolute Sure we Knew they were in reference to the us air force like HELLO.
they were really like: military propaganda? bad and evil, and then in the same breath: But U.S military propaganda? Good and Heroic
hm.
I’m not an us person, so maybe that’s why I am seriously un-aware that “us military colours” are red-blue-gold? which brach would that be ayway, don’t you folks have, like, the air force and water force and land force and what-not? I’m fairly certain they don’t all wear red-blue-gold? wonder woman also wears red-blue-gold, btw, and superman..? ..I mean, there are a bunch of people who wear those colours? because it’s a cool combo? and the scene clearly shows that she references the t-shirt Monica is wearing, which.. I don’t recall if it was really air force or just flight-stuff-inspired and it was clearly meant to reference the girl and also Carol’s roots here? so..
? maybe don’t put propaganda where it doesn’t have to be?
is there a special need to go: yeah, they make clear the refugees are the victims and not the bad guys BUT..?
(also, her costume is canonically these colours. like.. what is really the problem here? are we looking for things to wrinkle our noses at or what?)
