Fun Facts: In honor of the late Stan Lee, the Marvel opening sequence contains all of his past cameos.

Brie Larson was actually allergic to cats.

To promote the film, Marvel launched the website 90’s style.

Pinar Toprak is the first female composer to compose the score for an MCU film (sounds about right doesn’t it?).

Summary: In 1995, a former pilot becomes a powerful superhero and is officially caught in the war between two aliens.

The Review: Another home run for the MCU and the 90s references and this origin story of our favorite superheros seemed to work just about right.
