I dunno. Recently I've been hearing a lot of bad anticipation-related press about Captain Marvel, mainly to do with the lackluster trailers and the character's troubled comic history. If her name really is just Dan-Vers, that's honestly going to go in the direction these people are claiming is going to happen.

As for the Oscars, major kudos to Black Panther for getting a Best Picture nomination. I still would have preferred Logan in a post-Dark Knight world (seeing that The Dark Knight started this discussion in the first place), but it was bound to be Black Panther that would avenge TDK. Not just because of the social inclinations, but also because since TDK, there's been at least one big blockbuster movie to get into the Best Picture slot (e.g. Gravity, Fury Road, Arrival), and Black Panther was the only viable candidate this year of all the movies that came out. It'll probably win Costume Design and maybe Original Score, but really nothing else. Also, Infinity War will get Visual Effects, avenging Doctor Strange. I'm just glad an MCU movie will most likely finally win an Oscar. Freaking Suicide Squad...
