And I'll go ahead and say it's mainly a conservative thing.
Tell the story I want the way I want, or you're a goddamn SJW!
Look at her costume! It covers her all up! No, it's not practical just because she needs to survive in space! Decades of D&D have taught me that female warrior bikini armor is very effective!
This cartoon about the pets of superheroes is so immature and the plots are stupid. Who would watch this? So what if the target audience is under 6-years-old! It's superheroes so I must be entertained! (This actually happened)
Y'know what - even if Captain Marvel was a complete man-hating, stereotypical feminist - oh, hell, make her a lesbian, too (I kinda hope they do so people's heads will actually explode, and I want her partner to be a Kronan - the same race as Korg, the rock creature that befriends Thor in, "Ragnarok" - so they can talk about inner beauty)... Anyway, where was I going with this? Yeah, stereotypical feminist. GREAT! The thing about comics today is that the characters are so well-developed and individualistic. Captain America and Iron Man came to blows over their values. Back in the Golden Age of comics, which was essentially DC (yeah, there was Fawcett, shut up), the superheroes were essentially interchangeable. Batman believed essentially what Green Arrow believed who believed what the Flash believed, etc. That would be boring to us in the present. Nowadays, Batman goes looking to get in a fight with Superman because Batman is a xenophobic asshole who thinks Supes is a threat. Movie still sucked though. But the point is that the heroes learn how to work together, one backs another one up where he or she is lacking, and as corny as it sounds, learns something that goes against something ingrained in them. "Oh," man-hating, lesbian Captain Marvel said to Tony Stark, "Your method worked. Maybe all men aren't useless!" Yaaaaaaay!
I knew the conservative snowflakes already hating on CM were going to hate the movie's inspiring message - which boys and girls SHOULD be told, but if the message is told by a girl then it must be bad - and SPOILER, tells a man she doesn't care about his opinion and has an Indiana Jones moment where instead of engaging someone on his terms, does it on hers. With Indiana Jones, it was comically taking out a gun and shooting a swordsman that made a big show of his skills. With Captain Marvel it was laser-blasting a guy so hard he flew back five hundred feet into the side of a mountain. EVEN FUNNIER!
