They need to overall Carole's character if they want her to be the main character going forward. She's too perfect, too competent and nothing is ever going to be a challenge for her. This is the first time Marvel's done a film featuring a mega powerful hero and this is why. She's too powerful and unrelatable and a lot of the themes of feminism in the film were badly written, it honestly felt like a man wrote it and he didn't have a good understanding of what feminism actually was.

Marvel should have taken notes from Wonder Woman which does an excellent job of making Wonder Woman relatable and likable as well as handling feminism in a way that's informative and welcoming to all.

Marvel fell into the trap of going overboard with Captain Marvel because she's a woman instead of just writing her like they would any other hero. We like Marvel characters because they **** up, they have peaks and valleys to their personalities and they face difficulties that they overcome. Captain Marvel had none of that.
