Captain Marvel and The Light Brigade
About This Fan Edit
final cut CompleteGenres: adventure, fantasy, superheroes
A more heartfelt look at the story of three girls intertwined by their powers and growing together as individuals. This fanedit accentuates the story of the 3 protagonists and the antagonist by stripping away distracting comedic elements and introducing new music, among other changes.The Marvels was a film lacking a heart, it seems to focus too much of 'fun' without really having much depth. The task was to bring the heart of each character to the foreground. Monica's story is about loss, Kamala's story is about discovery and Carol's story is about shame.

Summary: Dar-Benn is placed first to present the foundation of the plot. Monica and Kamala have been given more of a foundation by introducing the discovery of Kamala's bangle and Monica returning from the Blip to discover her mother has died. Restoration of a deleted scene where Kamala finds herself on Captain Marvel's ship also adds to her story of discovery. Elements focusing on Kamala's family, the space station, Fury and the Flirkins all serve to provide meaningless 'comedy' so all are removed. I have also introduced some music, 'Hanuman Jayanti' from a movie about an ancient Hindu deity to go with the Quantum bangles and the Kree who visited ancient India, and the music of Arooj Aftab, a Pakistani-American musician.
