The Captain Marvel trailer finally arrived this morning and, correctly, broke Twitter because it looks amazing.
I noticed something in the trailer that I also noticed in the first promo pics: Carol Danvers is dressed gay as all heck for this whole entire movie. I mean, I know basically every woman was dressed gay in the ’90s, all that leather and flannel and everything, but Carol Danvers’ wardrobe is next level. We will discuss this trailer in the comments, but first I will rank Captain Marvel’s outfits by lesbianism.
10. Space helmet
Tell her about it, Sally Ride.
9. Leather superhero costume and a scowl
It’s the unflinching glare that really sells it.
8. Beginner aviator suit
“I’m all about experiments, me.”
7. Ringer tee
There was one solid decade where Tig Notaro wore nothing but ringer tees. For red carpet events, she just shrugged a blazer on top of them.
6. Full baseball uniform
“I like the high ones!”
5. Flight suit
Hey, remember how Kelly McGillis came out as a lesbian after Top Gun and then starred on The L Word? Yeah, me too. (Hey again, Sally!)
4. White tank top
If gay women had an army, this would be the uniform.
3. Misandry
Nothing says “lesbian” like a Carol who wears her misandry on her sleeve.
2. White tee, leather jacket, baseball cap
Come on.
1. Fingerless gloves
Come ON.
This is perfect.
Yes! Her looks in this movie are speaking to me on so many levels. I feel like this must be how gay guys feel about Captain America. I love it!!
Wait, wait, wait. THIS Danvers is of no relation to ALEX Danvers?! Are Marvel and DC going for a Danvers-based gay-off??
Since the Danverses of all comic book universes appear to share one thing in common, the only superhero crossover I want:
Kara vs. Carol: Dawn of Dykeness
While I love this and I’m super excited for this movie and at least 50% gayer just from watching this trailer, Wonder Woman is bisexual.
Yes she is. I just wish DC had the guts to actually show her in a romantic situation with another woman on panel.
Greg Rucka did that in his Rebirth run, didn’t he?
Not really. He got the closest yet, but DC editorial would never truly let him go there on panel.
I hope to lesbian jesus the entire movie is as gay as these outfits deserve.
I just can’t agree with Bette in a white tank top instead of Chloe Sevigny in If These Walls Could Talk 2
I second that!
Well, to be honest there’s a plethora of great white tank top choices
Sigourney Weaver as Ripley.
This is very true
Oh my god yes ?
I would gladly take an article that was dedicated solely to her character Amy (this “article” could just be photos and no words even)
I just wish we got a good look at Gemma Chan’s Minn-Erva. Come on, be Carol’s girlfriend.
Recently de-closeted lesbian here. Thank you for further evidence that I didn’t want to be that badass superhero, I wanted to date her.
If I could write a thesis on the gayness of the Danvers women, you could call me dr.dr.
Sounds like a purr
Anyone who reads the comics knows that the love of Carol’s life is Jessica Drew.
I’m just saying.
TRUTH.
Ok, I’m going to need a crossover movie with Captain Marvel & Wonder Woman.
The hero we deserve, come to liberate us from mediocre white male superheros (looking at you, Hawkeye).
I really hope this lives up to my expectations.
This is the type of hard-hitting journalism I expect from this website. A+
gay.
