Probably closer to 70. She'd be older than she was in the Ant-Man prologue.

Still feels underwhelming... but we'll see.

For me it looks fine. We get a little more footage about Captain Marvel/Danvers origin and interaction between her and Fury. I'll be seeing it in March.

Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers is a comic character that most casual fans aren't familiar with like The Avengers. I admit too that I don't have a lot of familiarity with her. So I think it's expected that it's not going to get the same kind of hoopla/reaction as Avengers and plus it's a prequel.

Looks fantastic - love seeing a female-led Marvel movie and it looks like it mixes the space stuff with earthbound action, which I think is great.

Considering they are saying she’s the center of the MCU going forward, I’m all for what’s to come!

This trailer definitely looks better than the first one.

I am now officially excited to go see this movie. Bring it on!

I'm going to be a hater, and say I don't like Brie Larson as Carol Danvers. And now I remember why Larson looks familiar. She was in 21 Jump Street.

However...this looks like it's going to be a solid, if not, great Marvel film.
The special effects, the setting, seeing a young Sam Jackson/Nick Fury, the space opera, all that...it looks awesome.

Guess that makes two of us. My exact sentiments.

Brie Larson seems kind of wooden in the trailer. Her line readings are pretty underwhelming. She just doesn't bring much oomph to dialogue like: "I'm not gonna fight your war. I'm gonna end it."

Hopefully her entire performance ends up being better than what's been shown so far.

The "With Her" turning into "With A Hero" line was cool. I think it looks good, just like the first trailer.

I just saw that right now. That's cool.

So Captain America was the first superhero so far , but she'll be the first superhero of the modern era, since this takes place chronologically before Iron Man, and based on her name and her powers, she's going to be like the flagship character of MCU. I like it.

I'm actually excited to see this, since it's going to be expanding the Marvel universe and mythology a lot with the Kree and Skrulls.

My ideal casting tho:

Once again Marvel will get me at the theater. I have liked both trailers and I think this will be another home run. As a kid I loved the Captain Mar-vell comics, but don't really have much history with the female Marvel. I like the idea that they have both characters in the movie. I am guessing that Jude Laws version will meet his comic book fate in a sequel somewhere down the line.

As Marvel have a tendency to add in cool elements from the comics I am wondering if they will have the Supreme Intelligence in the movie. It could look really cool on screen.

Oh, and after this it really seems natural to get a Silver Surfer movie in the works.

As someone completely unfamiliar with the source material I like Larson’s casting. Of course I’m probably biased since I’ve had a crush on her since 21 Jump Street.

That said, I do agree with Parkinsun Dzees above about her underwhelming line reading. And it’s a little annoying that she’s clenching her fists in almost all the promotional material and trailer scenes. I guess that’s just par for the course for Super hero poses.

Trailer looked great, and the MCU has a great track record with casting. But something does seem a bit off with her delivery. She looks great, but her voice is almost too mousey, maybe? Like i'd expect something more commanding... but that's nitpicking, i'll be there in the theater.

Eh. I'm sure it'll be fine. Marvel knows how to make movies. These two trailers have been blah tho.

I didn't think the new trailer was that great. I want to like this and will see it but it didn't really do anything for me. Probably because I know nothing of the character. Hoping this will be on blu before the next Avengers movie as it will tie into that somehow. I will see it then.

I think I like the first trailer better. At least we got to see more of the Skrulls, but they spend so much time showing her past life flashbacks on earth. Save that plot point for the movie and just show us some teasers from the big action scenes. Will be cool to see Ronan again.

There are only 2 months in between, so a blu before Avengers is not going to happen. Black Panther wasn't out on disc before Infinity War. Not sure what the digital situation is though.
