You know the Girl power scene is an interesting one.  When I say it I was like oh boy here we go, then when I thought about it a little more I was like, how many times have we seen a scene like that but it was all male heros.  In other words, if the scene was all males we would not have thought anything about it because it would feel natural.  I believe the they threw that scene in there because it isn't natural to see and it had the exact effect on most men thinking SJW.  If they would have had a woman leading the charge it also would not feel natural but in reality it shouldn't feel different at all.

Even in probably the most iconic scene very early on from the first avengers movie it isn't all male.

There is nothing natural about the collection of female heroes together because it's a scene constructed for one reason and it's to show all the female heroes together. The reason alone means the scene isn't a natural happening especially with the number of heroes, the odds of seeing 10+ heroes all of the same gender are insanely high, to the point of being laughable.

I would still consider that a bad scene even if it was all guys. A slow motion to show all characters in close-up one by one, in the middle of an amazing and fast battle, is out of place and breaks the rhythm, that's what makes it noticeable. You had a lot of bad ass moments for women during this battle, you had women saving men, and everything felt natural and normal, in the flow. But cut everything, teleport 10 characters at a same place out of nowhere, do a long individual close up and slow motion, and that right here is unnatural and forced.

EDIT: They should have done that at the beginning of the battle, when everyone was arriving by the portals. That would have been natural there. Not in the middle of the fight.

I think that what bothered me most about the "girl power" scene was that a lot of the women there were useless in this particular situation. Captain Marvel didn't need them. And then, I'm not sure if they even actually did anything. It's like me saying "I have to fight Mike Tyson" and a bunch of random babies that I've never met showing up and saying "We got your back!"

Aside from that, I'm cool with it. I mean how many times did random groups wind up with their established franchise members in obvious group photos? It was a moment. It looked good. I didn't read too deeply into it.

BEST MOVIE EVER

The thing is, we will never know if you would or would not even blink if it was all males or even all white males.  I know for a fact, I probably would think nothing about it, hell, I would even say if the whole movie did not have one woman or any character other than all white males I probably wouldn't think to much about it.  Feature a movie with a cast that features no white males and then we start talking.  It is what it is when it comes to movies. 

If the scene was all asian, all black, hispanic you would notice but if the scene was all white males you would not.  Anything other than the norm is always noticed and criticized or not depending on the SJW line you sit on.  It's the reason people comment about it.  The scene stuck more in your mind because it was all women then the slow motion or anything else.

Who knows, maybe that was the photo op moment for the women within the movie more than anything else.  Would be interesting if we see the director or writer give their opinion.

Thanks.  Didn't know Feige said any of that.

All I can say is that the next Captain Marvel movie is going to have to be a lot better if she is going to be the new front person for the MCU.  I thought her movie that just came out was decent, but not good enough to drive the MCU forward.  Especially since there are plenty of other characters that are still hugely popular.

Yup, this 100% the scene just really was shoehorned in to show just how many of them there are and for nothing other than to disperse again and get back into the fighting, also to have Rescue open up her helm a second time along with the Wasp doing the same thing just to show that it's a woman was 100% absolutely shot for that reason, there is no real way to argue it.

I wouldn't have thought the start of the fight as a good place to do this shot either as that made more sense considering every portal opening had the dusted members from that area, so Wakanda's portal had Bucky/Groot/Panther/Shuri/Falcon then the Titan portal had The guardians/Spiderman and Strange.

as for Mach's thing about "if the scene in avengers was all white males then it would be normal..." yeah it wasn't though, stop creating and fighting a battle in your head, if you wanna find a shot of all the heroes together which is just guys go for one (Civil war comes to mind for Cap Vs Stark), otherwise leave that shit out with your QQ'ing about white males in the MCU being the norm and all that people want when BP was probably one of the highest and best recieved movies in the franchise, you're fighting a fight which has already ended when you look at just how fantastically diverse the MCU heroes and villains is.
